Appreciation towards Form4 Architecture for providing the following description:

该项目是Form4 Architecture设计的办公园区，位于加州帕洛阿尔托的技术中心，以蝴蝶造型的尖角屋顶装饰而得名。项目的首要决策是在办公建筑群中创造舒适的、适宜步行的城市广场。蝴蝶造型的屋顶突出了设计的抒情意图，标志着通往地下两层停车场的通道。整体外观以行人尺度展现了现代主义的人文形式。该设计与硅谷典型的堡垒式园区背道而驰，那里不允许任何人进入大门，而该项目则对公众以及商业园区的其他部分开放。该庭院和公园旁边就是步行道和自行车道，它们邀请当地社区共享美景。

Named for its butterfly-inspired angular canopies that adorn the project’s exterior, Folded Wings is a workplace campus designed by Form4 Architecture in the technology epicenter of Palo Alto, CA. The first consequential design decision was to create a welcoming, pedestrian-friendly urban plaza between within the complex of office buildings. The design’s lyrical intent is emphasized by a butterfly-form canopy that signals access to two levels of below-grade parking. Folded Wings’ overall appearance yields a form of humane modernism at the scale of the pedestrian. The design is counter to the typical notion of the Silicon Valley fortress campus where no one is allowed behind the gates. This site is open to the public as well as to the rest of the business park. Adjacent to walking and bike trails, the courtyard and park invite the local community to share the beauty.

“折叠”是该项目的主旋律。从地下停车场出来后，访客会看到折叠的屋顶和外墙，它们让人联想到蝴蝶的有机形态。这些折叠结构增添了双层建筑外部的质感和视觉趣味，并且各部分仅呈现出细微的变化。倾斜屋顶将建筑体量破解为连贯的单元，当这些单元编织在一起时，建筑群显得更加丰富多样。屋顶两翼围绕顺应立面的轴线呈对称倾斜，表明其重复应用使建筑产生统一性，而不是杂乱无章的设计片段。

Folding is the project’s leitmotif. Upon arrival from the underground parking garage, visitors encounter folded roofs and façades evocative of a butterfly’s organic form. These folds add texture and visual interest around the two-story buildings’ exteriors, exhibiting only slight variations. Angled roofs break the scale of the volumes into visually cohesive units that, when knitted together, add an architectural richness and variety to the massing. The symmetrical angling of two planes around an axis applied to the façade demonstrates that its repeated application yields architectural unity rather than a chaotic jumble of discrete design episodes.

屋顶悬挑于下层楼板之外，遮挡了直射的阳光，同时在阳光照射到建筑外表面时，创造出令人沉醉的光影效果。这些悬挑连同经济高效的隔热措施，使建筑可以应用大量玻璃并且保持节能设计。带有新式高侧窗的全玻璃窗将均匀的自然光引入办公空间。与散布在景观中的蝴蝶形态和入口相呼应，以树叶为灵感的抽象屋顶造型——包括烧结玻璃、特制的配件和倾斜的柱子——标志着建筑的主入口。该项目通过高效和现代元素的动态组合，努力传达出一种创新文化。同时引入对比鲜明的材质与纹理，包括玻璃、固雅木、铝材和钢材。

The roofs cantilever over the floors beneath, shielding direct sunlight while creating a hypnotic interplay of light and shadow as sun rays hit exterior surfaces. These overhangs, along with cost-effective solar control methods, allow copious amounts of glass to be used while still maintaining the building’s energy-efficient design. Full-pane glass windows with modern clerestories flow balanced natural light into the office spaces. Echoing the butterfly forms and portals scattered in the landscape, an elegant abstraction in the form of a leaf inspired canopy—featuring fritted glass, specialized fittings, and a canted column—marks the main entrance to the building. Folded Wings’ dynamic mix of efficient and modern elements strives to communicate a culture of innovation. Contrasting materials and textures include glass, Accoya® wood, aluminum, and steel.

项目的核心是由Studio Five Design设计的公园式庭院，与建筑物的阳台和平台紧密呼应。这种室内外的互动旨在提高员工的生产力和留任率。省水地面和屋顶光伏板有助于LEED认证，其中，1号楼已荣获LEED金奖，2号楼的LEED评级待定。此外，该项目靠近多个公共交通站点以及自行车道和人行道，它对社区来说，是一个可持续且可信任的补充。

Folded Wings’ centerpiece, the park-like courtyard created with Studio Five Design, seamlessly interacts with the buildings’ balconies and decks. This interaction between indoors and outdoors is strategically designed to increase employee productivity and retention. Xeriscaped grounds and roof-top photovoltaic panels assist LEED certification—Building 1 was awarded LEED Gold. (Building 2’s LEED rating is pending.) Folded Wings’ proximity to several public transportation options and bike and pedestrian paths makes it a sustainable and responsible addition to the community.
