欧盟最高楼，福斯特事务所新作：华沙塔

由福斯特及其合伙人事务所设计的华沙塔现已落成。作为HB Reavis所属的华沙广场项目组成之一，它的高度达到310米，突破了既有的记录，是欧盟最高的建筑。

Foster + Partners has completed Varso Tower, an integral part of HB Reavis' Varso Place in Warsaw. At a record-breaking 310 metres it is the tallest tower in the European Union.

事务所工作室负责人Grant Brooker表示：“我们相信，这座充满活力并具有非凡屋顶公共空间的塔楼，将为这座美妙的城市做出强有力的积极贡献。我们希望它能成为当地甚至国际级的商业中心，并成为当代波兰的象征。”

Grant Brooker, Head of Studio, Foster + Partners, said: “We believe that the tower, filled with activity and featuring extraordinary rooftop public spaces will make a strong, positive contribution to this wonderful city. We hope that it will become a hub for local and international business and a symbol for contemporary Poland.”

位于Jana Pawla II与Chmielna街的转角处，这座塔楼成为了新开发项目的门户，既吸引人们穿行其间走向西端的公共广场，同时又与邻近的建筑相连。

Situated at the corner of Jana Pawla II and Chmielna Street, the tower forms a gateway to the new development and draws people through the building towards the public plaza on its western end that connects to the neighbouring buildings.

一个封闭于玻璃幕墙内的“广场”成为项目的社交核心空间。广场内有乔木和长椅，供人们享受周围的环境。这个“城市空间”成为在办公室工作的人们同公众之间的无缝连接点，前者可以在休息时将此作为休息场所，后者可以由此进入邻近建筑的商业和餐馆。

The social heart of the project is a plaza enclosed within a glazed screen, animated with full height trees and benches for people to enjoy the surroundings. This ‘urban room’ forms the point of seamless connection between people who work in the offices – who may use it as a sit-out during breaks – and the public, to access the shops and restaurants in the neighbouring buildings.

事务所合伙人Krzysztof Gornicki补充道，塔楼的大厅内有一个由当地艺术家Krystyna Kaszuba-Wacławek创作的10米高的陶瓷艺术品，活跃了整个空间。

Krzysztof Gornicki, Partner, Foster + Partners, said: “The tower’s lobby features a 10-metre-high ceramic artwork by the local artist Krystyna Kaszuba-Wacławek, which brilliantly animates the space.”

公共场域一直延续到塔楼顶端，两个全景电梯将人们直接从地面运送至位于53层的观景平台。作为波兰最高的住宅楼之一，其视线不受周边干扰，可以一览城市全景。49层不久后将开放一个景观化的露台酒吧，这里种有16棵树木，一跃成为华沙最高的花园。

The public realm continues at the top of the tower, accessed directly from the ground via two panoramic lifts, with a viewing platform at level 53. This is the highest inhabited floor in Poland with uninterrupted views of the city. Level 49 will soon offer a fully landscaped terrace bar, with sixteen trees, breaking the record for Warsaw’s highest garden.

办公区域由两组大容量的双层电梯提供服务，每部电梯可同时为两个楼层服务。大楼内拥有7万平方米的优质办公空间，大跨度及3米的净高条件，为开放式办公提供了条件。在三层玻璃外墙的加持下，该建筑获得了BREEAM优秀级与WELL黄金级认证。

The offices are served by two banks of high-capacity double-deck lifts, with each car serving two floors at any one time. With 70,000 square-metres of premium office space, the tower features large-span floorplates with three-metre clear height for open plan offices. The building achieves BREEAM Outstanding and WELL Gold certification, due in part to its triple-glazed façades.

事务所合伙人Jedrzej Kolesinski总结道：“华沙塔是天际线上的一个永恒的焦点，也为华沙的中心地带提供了一个充满活力的城市目的地。除了灵活的办公空间外，这座建筑还通过提供一个动态的公共领域来回馈城市。这座塔楼与邻近的华沙中央车站在地下直接相连，将为周围的城市街区注入新的活力。”

Jedrzej Kolesinski, Partner, Foster + Partners, added: “Varso Tower is a timeless addition to the skyline and a vibrant destination in the heart of Warsaw. In addition to the flexible office spaces, the building gives back to the city by providing a dynamic public realm. The tower’s direct underground link with the adjacent Warsaw Central Station will breathe new life into the surrounding urban quarter.”
