NADAAA是一家多學(xué)科執(zhí)業(yè)事務(wù)所,致力于為各個設(shè)計學(xué)科之間搭建橋梁。經(jīng)過三十多年的發(fā)展,其所承接的項目范圍廣泛,涉及從景觀到城市設(shè)計,從建筑到室內(nèi)設(shè)計,從工業(yè)設(shè)計到家具設(shè)計等多個領(lǐng)域。NADAAA從事的業(yè)務(wù)表明,其致力于通過創(chuàng)新不斷積累新知識。事務(wù)所以綜合性思維為著眼點,綜合利用各種技術(shù)、美學(xué)和建筑協(xié)議。事務(wù)所已能夠與杰出客戶合作,建設(shè)各種示范項目。其中許多客戶都設(shè)定維持卓越標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的目標(biāo),這類標(biāo)準(zhǔn)要求未來進行的任何改建,都需要進行跨學(xué)科合作,靈活應(yīng)變。
在Office dA幾十年的成功基礎(chǔ)上,2011年,納德爾?特赫拉尼(Nader Tehrani)與合伙人凱瑟琳???思{ (Katherine Faulkner)和丹?加拉格爾(Dan Gallagher)共同創(chuàng)立了NADAAA事務(wù)所,不斷拓展事務(wù)所業(yè)務(wù)的地理范圍和規(guī)模。設(shè)計卓越是所有追求的核心。NADAAA事務(wù)所已獲得18次“建筑進步獎”、“2014年霍西姆基金會可持續(xù)獎”、多次“芝加哥阿森納姆綠色優(yōu)秀獎”、“2012年霍布森獎”、“2007年庫珀-休伊特國家建筑學(xué)設(shè)計獎”、“2007年美國藝術(shù)家獎”、“美國目標(biāo)研究員獎”、“建筑與設(shè)計獎”、“2002年美國藝術(shù)與文學(xué)院建筑學(xué)院獎”和“2002年哈爾斯頓?帕克建筑獎”。過去五年,NADAAA事務(wù)所在《建筑師》雜志評選的“50強事務(wù)所”榜單排名中一直名列前三。另外,事務(wù)所的作品已在多個機構(gòu)內(nèi)展出,如現(xiàn)代藝術(shù)博物館、波士頓當(dāng)代藝術(shù)學(xué)院及洛杉磯當(dāng)代藝術(shù)館(LA MoCA);而且它的作品已在納希爾和加拿大建筑中心永久展出。
在思維投入方面,我們已經(jīng)做了多次實驗,研究材料特性及其影響建筑形式的可能性。我們也試圖通過創(chuàng)新建筑策略和制定替代構(gòu)造方法來挑戰(zhàn)建造/組裝的手段和方法。我們從系統(tǒng)的視覺看待建筑,協(xié)調(diào)部分與整體之間的關(guān)系,并注重影響整體設(shè)計智慧的各項關(guān)鍵細節(jié)。除了處理項目、預(yù)算和進度,我們的研究旨在展示建筑藝術(shù)作為設(shè)計過程核心因素的作用。概念組件已通過一系列的裝置進行了測試,其中有幾個已可用于復(fù)雜建筑項目,因此需要采取更先進的整合途徑。
建筑項目的社會成本越來越明顯,自然資源的價值也在不斷提高。因此,人們必須從設(shè)計概念開始就考慮建筑的最終消費需求。如果說傳統(tǒng)的設(shè)計過程主要圍繞項目的形式和空間開發(fā),那么NADAAA已經(jīng)將重點轉(zhuǎn)移到了作為項目出發(fā)點的結(jié)構(gòu)、環(huán)境和技術(shù)基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施的審視上。我們都非常清楚,機械和電氣組件在預(yù)算中所占份額最大,也是經(jīng)營成本的主要部分。此外,若早期選擇不正確,根據(jù)價值工程評估進度會受到影響。我們傾向于先發(fā)制人,用智能設(shè)計思維來克服這一艱難過程中存在的各種問題,將創(chuàng)新系統(tǒng)與更廣泛的規(guī)劃目標(biāo)聯(lián)系起來,同時制定創(chuàng)造性策略,以彌合技術(shù)和美學(xué)上的空白。環(huán)境因素的考慮是一項深思熟慮的工作,常常需要各學(xué)科的專業(yè)知識,包括從景觀設(shè)計到城市規(guī)劃,從被動的可持續(xù)戰(zhàn)略到智能技術(shù)等方面。只要建筑支持人類互動,我們就會規(guī)劃出行路徑,設(shè)計自然景觀,并在適當(dāng)情況下模糊室內(nèi)外的界限。同時還要考慮更大的生態(tài),維持自然和人類區(qū)域之間的平衡,了解影響當(dāng)今世界的許多因素是區(qū)域和環(huán)境層面的政策問題??紤]建筑規(guī)模和遺址景觀的同時,也期待它們之間可以相互促進。
NADAAA has evolved over three decades as a multi-disciplinary practice dedicated to bridging between design disciplines; from landscape to urbanism, architecture to interiors, and industrial design to furniture. The work of NADAAA demonstrates a commitment to new forms of knowledge through making. With an eye towards integrated thinking, we enter the discourse on technology, aesthetics,and building protocols as part of a holistic process. We have been able to build on a range of exemplary projects in collaboration with extraordinary clients, many of whom have the objective to maintain a standard of excellence that requires cross-disciplinary collaboration and flexibility for future modification.
Building upon the decades of Office dA’s success, Nader Tehrani launched NADAAA in 2011 with partners Katherine Faulkner and Dan Gallagher, expanding the firm’s geographic reach and capabilities. Design excellence is core to all pursuits and the firm boasts 18 Progressive Architecture Awards, the 2014 Holcim Foundation Sustainability Award, multiple Chicago Athenaeum Green Good Awards, the 2012 Hobson Award, the 2007 Cooper-Hewitt National Design Award in Architecture,the 2007 United States Artists Award, USA Target Fellows, Architecture and Design (AD) awards,the 2002 American Academy of Arts and Letters Architecture Award, and the 2002 Harleston Parker Award. For the past five years NADAAA has been placed in the top three design firms in the United States by Architect Magazine's Top 50 Firms ranking. The firm’s work has been exhibited at institutions including the Museum of Modern Art, the Boston Institute of Contemporary Art and LA MoCA, and is part of the permanent exhibit at the Nasher and the Canadian Center for Architecture.
Of the various investments in our thinking, much experimentation has been done with material properties and their potential to impact form. We seek to challenge the means and methods of fabrication/assembly, through innovative building strategies and the development of alternative tectonic approaches. We look at buildings with organic respect, reconciling part to whole relationships,and inventing key details that impact the intelligence of the overall design. Addressing program,budget, and schedule, our research aims to show the instrumentality of the art of construction as the central agent of the design process. Conceptual assemblies have been tested through a series of installations with several having found their way to complex architectural projects, requiring a more sophisticated approach towards integration.
The societal costs of a construction project are increasingly apparent, as are the increasing value of our natural resources. Therefore, one must consider the ultimate consumptive requirements of a building from the first moment of concept. If conventional design processes revolve primarily around the formal and spatial development of programs, NADAAA has shifted our focus to the examination of the structural, environmental, and technological infrastructures as the points of departure on all projects. We are keenly aware that mechanical and electrical components represent the lion’s share of a budget, as well as the bulk of the operating costs. Furthermore, there are schedule implications to value engineering when early choices are incorrect. We tend to pre-empt that diきcult process with intelligent design thinking, linking innovative systems to broader programmatic goals while creating inventive strategies to bridge the technical and aesthetic divide. An engagement with the environment is a deliberate effort, often involving varied disciplinary expertise, from landscape to urbanism and from passive sustainable strategies to smart technologies. Insofar as buildings sponsor human interaction, we look to program the paths of travel, engage the natural landscape,and (when appropriate) blur the boundaries between the inside and the outdoors. We are also mindful of the larger ecology that sustains the balance between the natural and domesticated terrain, understanding that much of what impacts the world today is a question of policy at the regional and environmental level. Working between the scale of architecture and the site landscape,we look to their mutual reinforcement.
