Appreciations towards CannonDesign for providing the following description:

CannonDesign公布了位于西密歇根大学(WMU)的全新学生中心，一座包容性的灯塔。该地区历史上曾属于过奥吉布瓦族、奥达瓦人以及Bodewadmi的国家，新的建筑设计旨在打造以学生为中心的公共场所，弘扬该场地中美国原著文化遗产的归属感以及荣誉感。

CannonDesign introduces the new Student Center at Western Michigan University (WMU), a beacon of inclusion. Located on lands historically occupied by Ojibwe, Odawa, and Bodewadmi nations, the building is designed to be a student-centered gathering place that champions belonging and honors the roots of Native American heritage embedded throughout the site.

全新充满活力的空间取代了Bernhard中心，希望促进学生之间的联系、社交以及合作。三层高的建筑拥有独特的聚集和休息空间、餐厅、校园书店、深受欢迎的校园酒吧、联邦快递以及星巴克等零售店。

Replacing the Bernhard Center, the new vibrant space is designed to foster connection, community, and collaboration for all students. The three-level building features gathering and lounge spaces, dining options, the campus bookstore, an anticipated on-campus brewpub, retail locations such as FedEx and Starbucks, and more.

在这里，学校希望通过整个建筑提升归属感并彰显包容性，这样的理念贯穿至每一个设计细节。该项目不仅仅是一个亲切温馨的学生中心典范，还将包容性展现在校园生活的方方面面。

Here, inclusion goes beyond small design elements, as the entire building and its design is a testament to the university’s commitment to fostering belonging and inclusivity. This project not only serves as a model for creating an authentic and inviting student center, but also demonstrates the opportunities that exist for prioritizing inclusivity in all aspects of campus life.

考虑到该建筑服务于上千名学生，建筑师采用了“C3”空间概念布局：碰撞、合作、并进。设计的想法是平面布局的流线与间距应有利于学生在整个教学楼内形成联系。目的是促进学生之间的互动方式，鼓励学生自身营造富有归属感的氛围。学生的反馈中还建议设计应考虑到美国原著文化，比如围坐在一圈的想法。与传统建筑中垂直墙体或方形空间不同，该建筑采用了独特的曲线墙体和环形空间。

With input from thousands of students, the building layout was developed from the concept of “C3” spaces: collide, collaborate, and conspire. The idea was for the flow and spacing of the floorplan to facilitate interstitial opportunities for students to connect with each other throughout the building. It aims to facilitate the types of engagement students identified as a driver for an atmosphere of belonging. Student feedback also influenced a design that incorporates elements of Native American culture, such as the idea of the sitting circle. Rather than the straight walls and rectangular spaces that are customary in traditional architecture, the building features mostly curved walls and circular rooms.

对自然的歌颂同样是该建筑概念的基石之一，设计的灵感来源于本地自然元素。从地面升起的首层空间采用石材覆盖，与该地区的基岩-冷水页岩交相辉映。中间层由玻璃和柱子包裹，仿佛漫步于密歇根州的森林。金色的鳍片环绕分布在上层立面上，为建筑提供这样，阳光通过鳍片上的木刻洞口，落在外侧的玻璃与室内空间中，仿佛树梢下的光影。

The celebration of nature was also a theme that served as a conceptual cornerstone of the building, incorporating inspiration from local natural elements. The ground floor rises out of the site and is clad in stone, which mirrors the bedrock of the region, Coldwater Shale. The middle level is wrapped in glass and features exposed columns, mimicking the experience of walking through a Michigan forest. The upper level features gold fins that fan out around the façade, providing sun protection and reflecting cutouts that mimic a tree canopy shadow onto the exterior glass and into the interior spaces.

标志性的中庭采用木板饰面，上方有天窗，被称为“心脏”，让人联想起密歇根的雪松林。该空间有多种用途，“心脏”是社团聚会的场所，设有休息区、表演空间以及灵活场地—这一切都与从屋顶一直照射进底层的自然光线相邻布置。

The iconic central atrium, lined with wood and lit above by skylights, is known as the “Heart,” invoking the forests of Michigan that include plenty of cedar trees. Among many of its uses, the Heart is a place where affinity groups meet, featuring sitting areas, performance spaces, and flexible spaces – all just steps away from the constant beam of natural light that flows from the roof all the way to the ground floor.

全新的学生中心塑造了一个真正为学生考虑的环境，旨在让所有的学生感到认可，形成彼此联系并进行探索。同时，该建筑还激励学生发现并分享自己的想法，从那些与自己不同的人中学习，从而培养社区意识和个性。

The new student center delivers a truly student-centered environment curated to help all students to feel recognized, to make connections, and to explore. All at once, the building simultaneously nurtures community and individuality by inspiring students to discover and share their voices, while learning about those whose identities are different than their own.
