Zaha Hadid Architects：Crest是一个用以测试新设计和施工技术可应用于的最小厚度材料，以及研究形式布置与结构性能之间关系的实验雕塑。作为一个临时设施，它将在V&A博物馆一直保留至10月24日（2014年）。
Zaha Hadid Architects：Crest is an experimental sculpture that tests new design and construction technologies applied to a material of minimal thickness; investigating the relationship between formal arrangement and structural performance. Designed as a temporary installation, Crest will remain at the V&A until 24 October(2014).
Crest测试了一种新型施工技术的极限和可能性，其结构外壳只有16毫米厚，由分为两个叠层的90块8毫米结构铝板组成，大约800个预制不锈钢螺栓连接，其中心由气千斤顶顶起，边缘则通过Tirfor钢丝绳绞盘拉在一起，最终形成这个跨度11米，约1.9米高的拱顶形状。水面下的两根处于张力状态的固定缆绳，可以防止钢板弹平，并使其自然成形。弧形底板控制壳体的弯曲角度，并为临时绞线和永久缆绳提供锚定。
Crest tests the limits and possibilities of a new construction technique. The final structure is a 16mm thick shell, formed from 90 panels of 8mm structural aluminium arranged in two overlapping layers and joined by approximately 800 fabricated stainless steel bolts. The centre is raised with airjacks and its edges pulled together with Tirfor wire rope winches to the final form of approximately 1.9m height and 11m span. Two permanent cables in tension below the waterline prevent the plate from springing flat and allow the piece to find its natural form. Curved baseplates control the shell launch angle and provide anchorage for both temporary winch lines and permanent cables.
Crest利用最小厚度材料的设计和施工技术实现了最大的独立跨度，并对面板的形式布置与组装件的结构性能之间的复杂关系提出了新诠释。此次具高研究性的合作使人们对薄壳结构有了更深入的了解，并将继续促进未来应用的研究和开发。
Crest achieves the maximum free-standing span using the design and construction technologies applied to a material of minimal thickness and has generated new insights into the complex relationship between the formal arrangement of panels and structural performance of the assembled piece. The highly investigative nature of this collaboration has given a greater understanding of thin shell structures that will continue to further the research and development of future applications.
扎哈·哈迪德谈到该装置时表示，“Crest探索了表面和结构之间的关系，将V&A博物馆庭院的平面水面转化为曲线形式，借由光线反射创造了一种引人注目的相互作用。”
扎哈·哈迪德建筑师事务所的合伙人Melodie Leung：“这是一个我们从未做过的，一个关于创造尽可能薄且具备精确形状的实验，这也是迄今为止我们建造的最薄的外壳结构”。
伦敦设计节副总监Max Fraser：“每年伦敦设计节期间，我们都会与V&A博物馆合作设计一系列精彩的装置。扎哈的解决方式是做一个非常薄、非常轻的雕塑性装置，它跨越水面的结构，给人一种‘这是如何设计的?’的疑惑”。
Zaha Hadid said of the installation, ‘Crest explores the relationship between surface and structure, transforming the planar water surface of the V&A’s courtyard pool into a curvilinear form, creating a compelling interplay with light and reflection.’
Melodie Leung, Associate, Zaha Hadid Architects says, ‘It’s a process that we’ve never done before, an experiment about achieving a precise form as thin as possible. This is the thinnest shell structure we have built to date’
Max Fraser, London Design Festival Deputy Director said, ‘Every year during the London Design Festival we work with the V&A on a series of ambitious installations. Zaha’s solution was to do something very sculptural incredibly thin and light in its construction that spans the pool and create the illusion of ‘how was that engineered?’’
