由素朴建筑工作室设计的清华大学教师餐厅位于地处清华校园核心区位，南区学生食堂的顶层。项目最初的定位，是给老师们提供一个跨院系学科交流的独特的就餐场所，让老师们在交流中碰撞出更多思维的火花。因此，这个近1000平米的空间，被设计成兼具人文氛围和自然格调的开放式大厅；不仅为教授们供应餐点和咖啡、提供远眺清华校园和西山的窗景，更是他们邂逅、交流、思想碰撞的场所。

为在开敞的大厅内营造宁静的就餐氛围，大厅区内设置了8组圆拱。圆拱的设置除了保留整体空间的前提下形成二次区域划分外，更重要的是改善了大厅的声场分布。每两个圆拱对应一个柱跨的钢结构桁架，圆拱与主体结构之间的空腔用于解决大厅的设备和管线，让室内空间能在复杂的功能下保持纯净。

圆拱下的区域，是具有仪式感的主厅，每个圆拱对应一列餐桌，形成领域感，除日常餐会外，还可承办庆典，宴会，酒会等活动。

坡屋顶下方，是视野开阔的副厅。这里座位布局相对主厅自由灵活，可举行不同规模的讨论餐会，提供独处的宁静，也能配合主厅的其他活动，作为休闲准备区。

室内采用简洁的材料与自然的光影打造室内独特的精神氛围。室内侧高窗上使用与外墙页岩砖尺寸相同的白色铝合金模块，以及与外墙花砖一样的砌筑纹理，为室内引入了侧高窗的阳光，也与西侧疏密变化的金属格栅及每组落地高窗的花砖墙相互呼应，相得益彰。

在室内的人工照明设计中，照明设计师深入挖掘了空间本身的特质，在满足功能需求的同时，利用空间固有的形态，塑造优雅静谧的照明氛围。主厅圆拱区的不同光色，为不同的活动场景提供所需的背景和氛围。

最终的目的，是在整个项目的实践过程中，实现设计与技术的优化结合。

The Faculty Canteen of Tsinghua University is located on top floor of the southe student canteen lying at campus’s heart. The initial position of the project aims to provide a unique dining hall where knowledge sparks will be lighted through multidisciplinary communication. This one-floor height and 100sqm canteen is further designed as an open space combining the humanistic atmosphere with the natural style, which can only provide a dramatic view of campus and West Mount during meal or coffee time, but also shape a perfect place for meeting, sharing and cheering.

In order to achieve peace and comfort for the users, eight groups of semicircular arches are set in the main hall. These overhead arches aim to separate the whole large space into several delicate smaller zones which sound fields are more focused and clear. Every two arches share one truss span and their in-between cavities are further utilized for equipment and pipelines, guaranteeing the spatial purity under functional sophistication.

The full-length dinning table under every arch consolidates the senses of place and rituality. And by reorganizing tables and chairs, the canteen can also act as a conference room, a club or a banquet hall.

As to the smaller weste hall with splendid scenery view, flexibility in use must come first. The fuiture with different styles and placements can perfectly meet every single customized need. If necessary, this space can serve as a subordinate zone for the main hall.

Light and shadow are the best decorators for this space and that is why only the simplest materials are employed. Inside the hall, the modular white aluminum boxes are designed to share the same patte with the especial brick construction on exterior façades, which aims to introduce the sunlight through the patte gaps while echoing with the weste metal grilling and brick wall.

As to the artificial illumination, the designers are devoted to create an elegant and peaceful atmosphere, reflecting the inner nature of the architectural space and fulfilling the daily using needs. The various options of lighting color for the arches can further shape the space or atmosphere the users need.

The ultimate goal of the whole practice is to reach a perfect integration of architectural design and building technologies.
