M+S Lay与Gensler 和SKS合作，重建了珠宝中心及旧金山SOMA附近的办公楼环境。作为历史建筑修复项目的一部分，原来的装卸平台被改建成抬高的广场，广场将珠宝中心与邻近的Airbnb总部相连。这个原本脏乱的空间经过彻底的改造，为周边建筑群引入了夺目的景观。

M+S LA teamed with Gensler and SKS to redevelop the Jewelry Center and adjacent office buildings in San Francisco’s SOMA district. As part of the restoration of the historic building, the existing loading dock was converted into an elevated plaza, connecting the Jewelry Center to the adjoining newly renovated headquarters for Airbnb. This unsightly sliver of space was radically reconfigured to bring a striking landscape amenity to the complex.

该庭院是Airbnb总部与珠宝中心间的重要视觉通廊。树木和富有雕塑感的石块置于主走廊中央，作为最有冲击力的元素，引导人们前往Airbnb的总部大厅。庭院的几何形状与建筑有机结合，并与建筑内部空间相呼应，使室内外空间产生强有力的联系。

The courtyard serves as an important visual link between Airbnb’s Headquarters and the Jewelry Center. The court’s most striking elements, the tree and sculptural stones, are centered on the main corridor that leads to Airbnb’s lobby. Working closely with the architects, the geometry of the courtyard informs the building interior and provides a strong indoor-outdoor relationship.

项目场地以前是一家电池厂，因此混凝土铺面下方的土壤污染严重。为了避免在广场改造中破坏原有的混凝土地面造成有害物质泄漏，设计师选择抬高广场甲板，并在甲板与原地面之间填充了1500立方英尺的土壤，创造出适合植被生长的环境。

A former battery factory, the soil beneath the concrete paving was significantly contaminated, requiring a strategy that averted the need for disrupting the existing concrete. By suspending the deck, 1500 cubic feet of soil was added to fill the void between the deck and existing paving, serving as an ideal habitat for the specimen tree.

木制广场设置在原装卸平台之上，围绕一棵造型优美的进口枫树展开。枫树周围散落着宝石般的石块让这个庭院与众不同，使庭院成为周围工作人员社交，工作和进餐的好去处。

Built around an imported specimen maple tree, an elevated wooden plaza floats above the old loading dock entry. A ring of ‘semi-precious stones’ adorns the tree, distinguishes the courtyard, and provides a sheltered social place for tenants to work, eat lunch or socialize.

设计师对直径2-3厘米的小河石进行了扫描建模，然后将其放大并按照人体工学进行轻微调整，最终得到了这些形状天然有机的“石块”。它们由玻璃纤维混凝土制成，外层仅1英寸厚，内部中空，因此自重较轻。

Small river stones, measuring 2-3 cm, were selected and scanned into three dimensional models that were then enlarged and slightly adjusted to obtain ideal proportions for ergonomics. This allowed for a truly organic shape. The stones were fabricated out of glass-reinforced concrete. Only 1” thick and hollow in the interior, are relatively light weight.

除了枫树和石块，庭院中还包括一面多肉植物墙和一面木墙。前者帮助隐藏功能型走道，后者在夜晚发出的灯光为庭院营造出不一样的工作氛围。庭院的设计为集体活动提供了多种可能，反映出倡导灵活且多元办公的工作文化。

Other components include a wall of succulents concealing a utility corridor, and a wood wall that when lit transforms the space at night. The design of the courtyard provides multiple configurations for congregating and reflects a work culture that encourages informality and flexibility.
