该脑科学中心坐落于耶路撒冷希伯来大学，是一处针对脑部进行科学研究的先驱性设施。在校园自然崎岖的地形环境中，项目选址经过精心规划，当通向市中心的电车开通后，这一建筑也将成为校园的门户——其充满活力的社交空间与实验室，不仅旨在将吸引杰出的科学家前来此地，还将广泛引起社区对中心研究活动的兴趣。

Situated in the heart of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, the Edmond and Lily Safra Center for Brain Sciences is a pioneering research facility for the scientific exploration of the brain. It has been carefully sited amid the natural rugged setting of the campus. Once the new tram link to the city center is opened, the building will act as a gateway to the university – its dynamic social spaces and laboratory facilities are designed to attract exceptional scientists, as well as to foster an interest in the center’s research activities within the wider community.

事务所设计主管Spencer de Grey表示，破解大脑之谜是21世纪最具挑战性的工作，这一领域的研究对数百万人的生活质量来说至关重要。这是以色列大学同类型间最具创新性的研究项目之一，几个综合实验室具有极高的灵活性，可以预判并适应未来的变化。围绕一开放中庭布置的平面成为方案的设计核心。

Spencer de Grey, Head of Design, Foster + Partners, said: “Understanding the enigma of the brain is the most challenging endeavor of the 21st century and research in this area is vital to the quality of life for millions of people. This is one of the most innovative projects of its kind at an Israeli university, with several laboratory complexes that are highly flexible to anticipate and accommodate future change, arranged around an open central courtyard that is at the heart of the scheme.”

围绕着中央庭院，建筑被布置为两个平行的侧翼，建筑上部设有28个高度灵活的实验室，并通过社交中心进行连接，旨在鼓励学生与研究人员间开展非正式的互动与思想交流。地面层则设有若干教学设施、一个200座报告厅、一间图书馆、咖啡馆，以及一处公开的展厅空间，该空间将用以展示与大脑相关的艺术。

The building is arranged as two parallel wings around this central courtyard. The upper levels house twenty- eight highly flexible laboratories linked by social hubs, which are conceived to encourage informal interaction and the exchange of ideas between students and staff. At ground floor, there are teaching facilities, a 200-seat auditorium, a library, café and a publicly accessible gallery for the display of art related to the brain.

作为方案核心的庭院将上述不同的功能统合在一起，建立起贯穿校园的全新交通流线，并将周边景观的绿色气息引入建筑当中。庭院间种有柑橘树，并修筑了一条人工水渠，塑造一处安静的沉思空间，同时形成一个凉爽的微气候，可伸缩的ETFE屋面还可以进一步加强这种空间效果。

The courtyard at the heart of the scheme unites these different functions, establishes new circulation routes through the campus and draws the greenery of the surrounding landscape into the building. Planted with citrus trees and a man-made stream along its length, the courtyard forms a quiet, reflective space and a cool microclimate, which can be further mediated by a retractable ETFE roof.

事务所合伙人Darron Haylock表示，项目在城市层面而言，具有进步性的社会意义，创造了一处真正具有包容性的研究与学习中心。新建筑位于大学的人行主干道旁，其外立面吸引着人们前来一探究竟，对研究活动展开了解。

Darron Haylock, Partner, Foster + Partners, commented: “The project has a progressive social agenda that has been applied at an urban scale, creating a center for research and learning that is truly inclusive. The new building is located just off the main pedestrian spine of the University and its façade invites exploration, drawing people inside to learn about the research activities.”

在当今仍在持续的疫情之下，这一以生物多样性为基础的建筑，也将承担起守卫健康的重任。中央庭院、开放式阳台和交通系统，都将对健康研究园的建立起到促进作用。中心采用了先进的环保策略，通过被动技术以自然地减少能耗。诸如耶路撒冷石等本土材料也在项目中得以广泛应用，东西向的平面布局也有助于减少太阳辐射。

In the context of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, the building anticipated the importance of health and wellbeing with a design that is underpinned by the principles of biophilia. The central courtyard, open balconies and circulation all contribute towards a healthy research campus. The center’s progressive environmental strategy makes use of passive techniques to naturally reduce energy use. Local materials, such as Jerusalem stone, are used where possible, and the building is orientated east-west to reduce solar gain.

建筑上部的三层立面处设有铝制遮罩，遮罩上不断重复有二十世纪西班牙神经学家Santiago Ramon y Cajal绘制的图案，该设计也是对大脑神经结构的一种阐释。东西两侧半透明ETFE顶棚也为建筑进一步加强了被动式冷却效果，同时也成为主入口的独特标志。

The upper three levels are shaded by a cast aluminum screen, with a non-repetitive representation of the early twentieth century drawings by Spanish neuroscientist, Santiago Ramon y Cajal, illustrating the neurological brain structure. Further passive cooling of the building is provided by translucent ETFE canopies to the west and east, which form distinctive markers for the main entrances.
