罗伯特·斯特恩建筑师事务所 (RAMSA) 为乔治城大学的麦考特公共政策学院设计了一座新的旗舰建筑。座落于华盛顿特区市中心的国会校区，这座建筑面积15000平米的新建筑位于西北东街125号，是学生、教师、研究人员以及首都政策圈人士的学术中心。该建筑提供了丰富的教育和社区空间，包括20间教室、一个宽敞的主公共区域、学术办公室、400座礼堂、可眺望美国国会大厦的大型屋顶露台，以及一个可容纳280人的场馆。作为致力于应对复杂的国内和国际挑战的学术中心，麦考特公共政策学院优先考虑可持续性和能效，其设计取得了LEED白金认证。此外，建筑师、设计师、艺术家和雕塑家林璎针对场地而原创的一系列装置艺术也鼓励建筑使用者去思考他们周边的自然环境。

Robert A.M. Stern Architects (RAMSA) has designed a new flagship home for the McCourt School of Public Policy at Georgetown University’s Capitol Campus in downtown Washington, D.C. The new 150,000 sqft building, located at 125 E St. NW, is an academic hub for students, faculty, researchers, and the wider policymaking community active in the nation’s capital. The building houses extensive educational and community spaces, including 20 classrooms, an expansive main commons, academic offices, a 400-seat auditorium, and a large rooftop terrace with sweeping views of the U.S. Capitol and a 280-seat venue. As an academic center devoted to addressing complex national and international challenges, the McCourt School of Public Policy prioritizes sustainability and energy efficiency and is designed to achieve LEED Platinum certification. Additionally, a series of original site-specific installations by architect, designer, artist, and sculptor Maya Lin encourage building users to consider their natural surroundings.

作为国会校区的旗舰建筑，麦考特学院恰如其分地延续了乔治城市中心的面貌。东街125号的建筑是一座由石材、金属板和玻璃幕墙包裹的立方体，延续了邻近建筑的形态和尺度。垂直遮阳板和百叶窗主要起到阻挡阳光直射和优化热性能的作用，它们以突出的线条勾勒出建筑的立面，与邻近西北第一街500号规律的窗洞相呼应。不过，位于东街125号的这栋建筑通过金属、石材和玻璃的巧妙融合，带来了全新的视觉趣味。

A flagship building of the Capitol Campus, the McCourt School is a contextual and coherent extension of Georgetown’s downtown presence. A cube clad in stone, panelized metal, and glass curtain walls, 125 E St. carries forward the form and scale of its neighbors. Vertical fins and brise-soleil—which primarily mitigate against sun exposures and optimize thermal performance—articulate the building’s façade with projecting lines that echo the uniform punched windows of the neighboring 500 First Street NW. The McCourt School’s 125 E St. building, however, introduces new visual interest with its interplay of metal, stone, and glass.

麦考特公共政策学院的室内建筑设计灵感源自其地理位置所带来的独特教育机遇，即毗邻美国国会大厦和最高法院等美国主要决策机构。学院设有一个可容纳 400 人的礼堂，并配备广播功能，以及一个可容纳 280 人的屋顶活动场地，可供政策领袖和实践者就国内和国际政策相关的话题进行交流。该建筑的设计旨在促进有机的互动和偶遇，来营造一个富有活力、互通包容的学术氛围。光线充足的双层挑高中庭里，一座“移动楼梯”从这里出发联系起全部九层楼层。不过，这座楼梯并非笔直向上，而是会往返穿行建筑，让学生和教职员工在前往办公室或教室时必须经过不同的空间。这座楼梯是学院互联社区的建筑表达，也避免了在场地周围形成学术的孤井或僵硬的等级。

The McCourt School of Public Policy’s interior architecture has been shaped by the unique educational opportunities afforded by its location, namely its proximity to the nation’s premier policymaking bodies, such as the U.S. Capitol and the Supreme Court. A 400-seat auditorium with broadcast capabilities and a 280-seat rooftop venue can host leading policymakers and practitioners for important discussions related to national and international policymaking. The building’s design promotes organic interactions and chance encounters to foster a robust, interconnected, and inclusive academic community. Beginning in the light-filled double-height atrium, a “traveling staircase” connects the building’s nine levels. Instead of winding directly upward, however, this staircase traverses the building, requiring students and faculty to pass through various spaces when traveling to an office or classroom. This staircase serves as an architectural expression of the school’s connected community and resists the formation of academic siloes or hierarchies around the location.

林璎工作室的一系列装置作品名为“映射我们在世界中的位置”，激活了室内空间并激发使用者的场所感，促使他们思考自身与更广阔世界的联系。“沿着波托马克河”是一个安装在天花板上的玻璃珠图案，仿佛波托马克流域的鸟瞰图。在主公共区域，一系列名为“是否鸟儿”的天气感应吊灯会根据阳光、云彩、雪或雨的出现而改变颜色，并通过主楼梯上方的定向扬声器播放当地水道、湿地、森林和草地在一年内不同日期和时间录制的音频。林璎工作室还参与了建筑屋顶景观的设计。“天空花园”是一个户外露台，拥有椭圆形水池和本地植物。它为人们提供了安静交谈和休憩的机会，同时呈现了当地的生态环境，并构成了面向美国国会大厦的取景框。

A series of installations by Maya Lin Studio, titled “Mapping Our Place in the World”, animates interior spaces and grounds occupants in place, prompting them to consider their connection to the larger world. “Following the Potomac” is a ceiling-mounted composition of glass marbles that resembles a birds-eye view of the Potomac watershed. In the main commons, a series of weather-responsive pendant lights titled “Whether Birds” change color according to the presence of sun, clouds, snow, or rain. Audio recordings of local waterways, wetlands, forests, and grasslands, made at various times of day and year, are broadcast through directional speakers above the primary staircase. Lin also contributed to the design of the building’s roofscape. “The Sky Garden” is an outdoor terrace with elliptical pools and native plants. It offers opportunities for quiet conversation and respite while celebrating regional ecology and framing views of the U.S. Capitol.
