Appreciation towards MVRDV for providing the following description:

欧洲有上千个形态各异的小镇，它们同时兼顾美与实用，共同助力欧洲的未来。坐落在德国南部的斯图加特地区的埃思林根就是这些小镇的其中之一。埃思林根的新德姆塔特区是一个有着有工业历史的前货运仓储地，在那里，一幢新的办公大楼即将建成。MVRDV事务所协同萨尔布吕肯的RVI公司一起为城市设计了这一崭新的里程碑，而这块“水晶石”将会吸引众多城市居民与开发者的眼球。

Europe consists of thousands of small towns that compete for recognition. A beautiful and useful force, which can create a strong energy for the future of Europe. One of these towns is Esslingen am Neckar. A city situated in the region of Stuttgart, in the south of Germany. In Esslingen, in the “Neue Weststadt”, a former freight depot with a diverse industrial history, a new office building will be realised. Together with RVI, a developer situated in Saarbrücken, MVRDV design a new Milestone for the city, which will draw attention to the town and its developments, a “crystal rock”.

这座多功能的办公楼曾被称为“方块E”，是这片刚刚发展起来的街区中心的标志性建筑，而这片街区未来将会再加入一所大学以及众多房地产开发与零售商店。MVRDC的目标是建造一幢可以体现埃思林根特点，并且接纳周边环境及其使用者的大楼。它可以向坐火车经过的人和站在山坡上眺望城市的人发出信号——“我们在这里”，它彰显着城市的骄傲、历史以及未来。

Formally known as “Block E”, the new mixed-use office building marks the centre of this newly developed district, which will further accommodate a university, housing developments and retail stores. MVRDV’s ambition is to generate a building that shows the city of Esslingen and at the same time, opens up to its surrounding and its users. To the people who pass by on the train, and to those that look at the city from the hills ‘Here We Are.’ It shows its pride, its history and its future.

大楼的立面凹进去一系列的方块，形成了一个“埃思林根空间”，它刻画了埃思林根的边界和自然的地形。一系列的台阶、坡地和平台延伸至楼的另一层的公共空间，在这里，游客们可以看见葡萄园和附近的山丘。建筑利用内含光伏电池的熔块玻璃组成部分镜面的立面，以映照出周围的环境、城镇、山丘和人。它展现出一幅埃思林根及其周边地区的像素化的地图。每一个像素都蕴含着不同的信息，讲述着这个城市和它的居民的故事。通过手机App，人们可以探索城市丰富的内涵，共同创造城市的“公共图书馆”。

The façade traces the boundaries of Esslingen and the topography of its landscape, which is pushed in through a series of pixels that form an “Esslinger Room”. A series of stairs, terraces, and platforms emerge and leads to the other side, reaching a viewpoint in the shape of the city centre for public use, where visitors can enjoy the views of the vineyards and surrounding hills. The façade is designed as partially mirrored, with fritted glass containing PV cells that mirror the environment, the town, its hills and its people. It shows the pixelated map of the area of Esslingen and around. Each pixel carries different information, featuring the stories of the city and its inhabitants. Accompanied by a smartphone app one can discover its richness, creating the public library of the town.

在地面层，这块水晶石向面前的公共广场打开，将城市与建筑相连接，并且提供了餐厅、咖啡馆和聚会空间等一系列公共设施。建筑上层是现代化的办公空间，鼓励生活与工作的健康的平衡。

On the ground level, the crystal rock opens up to the public square located in front, connecting the city with the building and providing public amenities including a restaurant, café and meeting areas. On the upper levels, modern office spaces are created to encourage a healthy work-life balance.

在晚上，发光的立面点亮气氛，使整个建筑成为埃思林根的灯塔。建筑前方的广场成为市民们的新聚会场所，也成为了城市的下一个里程碑。

In contrast, at night, the building becomes a beacon for Esslingen, illuminated through its façade, creating an extraordinary atmosphere. This turns the public square in front into a new meeting point for its inhabitants and the city’s next milestone.
