事务所简介 FIRM PROFILE
NADAAA是一家多学科执业事务所,致力于为各个设计学科之间搭建桥梁。经过三十多年的发展,其所承接的项目范围广泛,涉及从景观到城市设计,从建筑到室内设计,从工业设计到家具设计等多个领域。NADAAA从事的业务表明,其致力于通过创新不断积累新知识。事务所以综合性思维为着眼点,综合利用各种技术、美学和建筑协议。事务所已能够与杰出客户合作,建设各种示范项目。其中许多客户都设定维持卓越标准的目标,这类标准要求未来进行的任何改建,都需要进行跨学科合作,灵活应变。
发展历程和成就
在Office dA几十年的成功基础上,2011年,纳德尔•特赫拉尼(Nader Tehrani)与合伙人凯瑟琳•福克纳 (Katherine Faulkner)和丹•加拉格尔(Dan Gallagher)共同创立了NADAAA事务所,不断拓展事务所业务的地理范围和规模。设计卓越是所有追求的核心。NADAAA事务所已获得18次“建筑进步奖”、“2014年霍西姆基金会可持续奖”、多次“芝加哥阿森纳姆绿色优秀奖”、“2012年霍布森奖”、“2007年库珀-休伊特国家建筑学设计奖”、“2007年美国艺术家奖”、“美国目标研究员奖”、“建筑与设计奖”、“2002年美国艺术与文学院建筑学院奖”和“2002年哈尔斯顿•帕克建筑奖”。过去五年,NADAAA事务所在《建筑师》杂志评选的“50强事务所”榜单排名中一直名列前三。另外,事务所的作品已在多个机构内展出,如现代艺术博物馆、波士顿当代艺术学院及洛杉矶当代艺术馆(LA MoCA);而且它的作品已在纳希尔和加拿大建筑中心永久展出。
材料研究和建筑行业
在思维投入方面,我们已经做了多次实验,研究材料特性及其影响建筑形式的可能性。我们也试图通过创新建筑策略和制定替代构造方法来挑战建造/组装的手段和方法。我们从系统的视觉看待建筑,协调部分与整体之间的关系,并注重影响整体设计智慧的各项关键细节。除了处理项目、预算和进度,我们的研究旨在展示建筑艺术作为设计过程核心因素的作用。概念组件已通过一系列的装置进行了测试,其中有几个已可用于复杂建筑项目,因此需要采取更先进的整合途径。
整合性设计思维
建筑项目的社会成本越来越明显,自然资源的价值也在不断提高。因此,人们必须从设计概念开始就考虑建筑的最终消费需求。如果说传统的设计过程主要围绕项目的形式和空间开发,那么NADAAA已经将重点转移到了作为项目出发点的结构、环境和技术基础设施的审视上。我们都非常清楚,机械和电气组件在预算中所占份额最大,也是经营成本的主要部分。此外,若早期选择不正确,根据价值工程评估进度会受到影响。我们倾向于先发制人,用智能设计思维来克服这一艰难过程中存在的各种问题,将创新系统与更广泛的规划目标联系起来,同时制定创造性策略,以弥合技术和美学上的空白。环境因素的考虑是一项深思熟虑的工作,常常需要各学科的专业知识,包括从景观设计到城市规划,从被动的可持续战略到智能技术等方面。只要建筑支持人类互动,我们就会规划出行路径,设计自然景观,并在适当情况下模糊室内外的界限。同时还要考虑更大的生态,维持自然和人类区域之间的平衡,了解影响当今世界的许多因素是区域和环境层面的政策问题。考虑建筑规模和遗址景观的同时,也期待它们之间可以相互促进。
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.
HISTORY AND ACHIEVEMENTS
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.
MATERIAL RESEARCH & BUILDING INDUSTRY
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.
INTEGRATED DESIGN THINKING
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.
