NBM：美国国家建筑博物馆在2016年夏天展出的由James Corner Field Operations设计的冰山装置，创造了一个独一无二的新型打卡地。这个沉浸式的装置仿佛一个横跨博物馆大厅的美丽水下冰原世界，强调突出了当今的景观、几何和建筑主题。冰山装置作为博物馆的夏季街区派对主题系列的一部分，于2016年7月2日至9月5日向公众开放（现已拆除）。

NBM：The National Building Museum create a new, one-of-a-kind destination this summer when it unveils ICEBERGS, designed by James Corner Field Operations. Representing a beautiful, underwater world of glacial ice fields spanning the Museum’s enormous Great Hall, the immersive installation emphasize current themes of landscape representation, geometry, and construction. The ICEBERGS open to the public July 2–September 5, 2016 (now closed), part of the Museum’s imaginative Summer Block Party series.

冰山以各种不同尺寸的装置元素为特色，并由可重复使用的建筑材料，如脚手架和聚碳酸酯镶板等这些通常用于温室建造的材料建造而成。该装置通过一条悬挂在20英尺高的“水平面”将垂直空间一分为二，同时以此保证“海洋”表面高处和高耸冰山下方的视野。这里面最高的冰山是“bergy bit”，它有56英尺高，将从水平面以上一直延伸到博物馆的三层阳台，冰山装置的总面积共达12540平方英尺。

ICEBERGS will feature installation elements in a variety of sizes and built of re-usable construction materials such as scaffolding and polycarbonate paneling, a material commonly used in building greenhouses. A “water line” suspended 20 feet high will bisect the vertical space, allowing panoramic views from high above the ocean surface and down below among the towering bergs. The tallest “bergy bit,” at 56 feet, will reach above the waterline to the third story balcony of the Museum. ICEBERGS will occupy a total area of 12,540 square feet.

游客们可以登上最高的冰山内部的观景区，穿过海底大桥，在海底的洞穴和石窟中放松，也可以品尝日本Daikaya餐厅提供的kakigori刨冰小吃，并参与独特的结合景观建筑、设计和环境的主题教育。

Visitors will be able to ascend a viewing area inside the tallest berg, traverse an undersea bridge, relax among caverns and grottoes on the ocean floor, sample Japanese kakigori shaved-ice snacks provided by Daikaya restaurant, and participate in unique educational programming integrating landscape architecture, design, and the environment.

James Corner Field Operations是纽约的一家城市规划、景观和公共领域的设计公司，以纽约的High Line和圣莫尼卡的Tongva公园等项目而闻名。该公司受美国国家建筑博物馆的委托，继去年（2015年）设计了广受欢迎的海滩装置之后，又创建了这个临时的夏季展览装置，该趣味结构装置在两个月的运行期间共接待了超过18万名游客。

James Corner Field Operations is an urban design, landscape architecture, and public realm practice based in New York City and known for projects such as New York’s High Line and Santa Monica’s Tongva Park. The firm was commissioned by the National Building Museum to create the temporary summer exhibit following last year’s popular BEACH installation, a playful structure that welcomed over 180,000 visitors during its two month run.

美国国家建筑博物馆(National Building Museum)执行馆长Chase W. Rynd说道：“该冰山装置与华盛顿特区酷暑的极端气候形成鲜明对比。我们希望James Corner Field Operations的精彩设计在引发公众对设计与景观之间复杂关系的严肃讨论的同时，也能引起所有年龄段的游客的玩耍和好奇心。”

“ICEBERGS symbolizes an extreme counterpoint to the sweltering heat of the Washington, D.C. summer,” said Chase W. Rynd, Hon. ASLA, executive director of the National Building Museum. “We hope that James Corner Field Operations’ striking design will provoke both serious public conversation about the complex relationship between design and landscape, while also eliciting a sense of wonder and play among visitors of all ages.”

James Corner Field Operations（项目描述）：冰山装置以一种景观的形式，创造了一个超现实的冰川冰原水下世界。鉴于我们当前的气候变化、冰川融化和海平面上升的时代现象，这样的一个世界显得既美好又不祥。在物理体验上，该装置为人们创造了一个神韵、动向和互动的环境场地，有别于其他静态的单一对象，它就像一个展开式的多重景观；在几何学上，它通过折叠组合表达阐述了数学中的三角形和平行四边形；在结构上，它又向人们展示了一种由多个预制单元制成的组装方法。

James Corner Field Operations(project description)：As landscape representation, ICEBERGS invokes the surreal underwater-world of glacial ice fields. Such a world is both beautiful and ominous given our current epoch of climate change, ice-melt and rising seas. As physical experience, the installation creates an ambient field of texture, movement and interaction, as in an unfolding landscape of multiples, distinct from a static, single object. As geometry, it speaks to the mathematics of triangles and parallelograms in folded combinations. As construction, it describes a method of assembly made from multiple pre-fabricated units.

从国家建筑博物馆的角度来看，冰山装置更多表达的是关于建筑、装配、材料、空间体验、设计和想象；从公共空间和参观的角度来看，该装置提供的是一个充满互动和趣味的休息反思的空间，其凉爽的温度，厚实的豆袋坐凳和刨冰点心，与华盛顿特区炎热潮湿的夏天形成鲜明的对比。

In the context of the National Building Museum, ICEBERGS is about building, assembly, materials, spatial experience, design and imagination. In the context of public space and visitation, the installation provides an interactive and playful space of respite and reflection, with cooler temperatures, chunky bean-bags and shaved-ice refreshments, set in stark contrast to the hot, humid world of Washington DC summer outside.

该装置由30多个半透明聚碳酸酯面板制成的棱柱形三角形五面体和八面体组成，高度从16英尺到56英尺不等，有些悬挂在天花板上，看起来像是漂浮着的，一个巨大的蓝网将其他冰山碎片包裹在一个巨大的三角形外壳和天花板基准框架内，地板上随机散落分布着许多三角形的豆包坐垫。

The installation comprises over 30 prismatic triangular pentahedrons and octahedrons from translucent polycarbonate panels and ranging in height from 16-feet to 56- feet. Some are suspended from the ceiling and appear to float. The shards are contained within a large triangular enclosure and ceiling datum frame by a huge blue net. A number of triangular shaped bean-bags are informally distributed on the floor.
