MEETT位于圖盧茲北部的創(chuàng)新區(qū),是一處新建的會展中心。該項目不僅僅是一棟建筑,還提供了基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施、城市規(guī)劃、景觀和公共空間。15.5萬平方米的會展中心位于城郊交界處:會展中心貫穿南北,連接南部城區(qū)——主要是航空業(yè)(包括客機機庫),連接北部農(nóng)業(yè)景觀。
項目所在的鄉(xiāng)村地區(qū)交通便利,緊鄰圖盧茲中心,易受到城市化帶來的影響。OMA在設(shè)計MEETT時,有意利用其宏大的規(guī)模和多功能,來打破一般博覽會公園的混亂布局,從而達(dá)到保護周圍鄉(xiāng)村的目的。
MEETT被構(gòu)想為一個“活躍帶”,是由三條平行排列的條帶構(gòu)成的一個水平而緊湊的整體:其中北側(cè)條帶是一排模塊化的展廳;南側(cè)條帶是會議中心和多功能活動廳;中間的條帶是接待區(qū)域,并設(shè)有一座包含3000個車位的筒式停車場。該停車場并未被設(shè)置在地下或者與周圍景觀毫無關(guān)聯(lián)的場外區(qū)域,而是處于項目的中心位置,占據(jù)主干道,可以提供便利設(shè)施,直通大廳。
設(shè)計鏈接室內(nèi)外空間,將基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施(包括電車、馬路和機場)以及周圍的鄉(xiāng)村關(guān)聯(lián),把典型的內(nèi)向式展會空間轉(zhuǎn)變成一個外向場所。
MEETT不只是對建筑上產(chǎn)生影響,實際是一臺城市機器。它規(guī)模宏大,整體影響細(xì)微,將成為通向圖盧茲的新門戶。
北側(cè)地帶——展覽空間
位于北側(cè)的展廳很壯觀,這是一個長度近700米的一體化空間。建筑由幾種簡單的功能性元素構(gòu)成;一系列或懸空或落地的黑色盒子、白色的鋼結(jié)構(gòu)以及聚碳酸酯墻面。他們共同構(gòu)成了一個規(guī)則的整體,在突顯宏偉建筑的同時,又創(chuàng)造出明亮舒適的展覽空間。
展覽館總計提供4萬平米的展覽空間,既可以當(dāng)作大型主展廳使用,也可以通過機械化的幕簾分為7個模塊化展廳。展覽館兩端設(shè)有兩個架空的夾樓,可以用作接待空間或俯瞰主空間的VIP室。半透明的外墻為開闊的大廳提供了充足的日光,再次體現(xiàn)了該項目對室內(nèi)外空間關(guān)系的尊重。
包括所有建筑在內(nèi)的整體規(guī)劃都基于3*3的網(wǎng)格結(jié)構(gòu),棋盤式的布局遵循了博覽會的標(biāo)準(zhǔn),為場地的分隔使用提供了無限的可能性,同時也為所有的建筑構(gòu)件提供了一個基準(zhǔn)性的系統(tǒng)。
中間地帶——接待空間
位于中間的條帶,其底層設(shè)有一個3.27萬平方米的接待區(qū),接待訪客光臨展廳、室外博覽會區(qū)和會議中心。這里也被稱為“中央大街”(Rue Centrale),與名稱相呼應(yīng),中央大街還涵蓋了交通空間、信息中心和公共空間的功能。訪客們可以在這里找到售票處和食品攤位。
停車場位于中央大街的上方,是一個被高高架起的四層結(jié)構(gòu),并且位于項目的正中央。這座體量為通往MEETT的核心地帶提供了一個具有儀式感的入口,直通展廳。開放的形式使其能夠最大化地利用自然光,從停車場就可以看到博覽會。
南側(cè)地帶——活動空間
位于南側(cè)的體量有一間多功能活動大廳和一間會議中心,同樣可以從中央大街直接進入。整個建筑的兩層結(jié)構(gòu)可以追加展覽場地。
活動大廳和會議中心北可設(shè)計成一臺機器形狀。從會議中心二層的小型會議室,到底層陽光充足的開放式空間,借助可移動的垂直柵格墻和水平隔板,在幾分鐘內(nèi)轉(zhuǎn)換為多種配置。
活動大廳的東側(cè)墻壁設(shè)有13米高的滑動墻面,在打開時可以將大廳內(nèi)部的活動延伸至室外廣場。南側(cè)條帶共計提供了6.5萬平方米的可租賃面積以及4萬平方米的室外展區(qū)。
MEETT周圍的通行路線十分直觀明了,加上整個綜合體內(nèi)部清晰的信息標(biāo)識,參觀者能夠很容易辨別方向。此外,緊湊的布局也減少了公眾在參觀過程中的行程距離。整個區(qū)域都允許重型車輛通行,并設(shè)有獨立的出入口,以及環(huán)繞北、西、南三個立面的內(nèi)部通道,便于設(shè)施的分布和管理。
MEETT項目還設(shè)有一個交通樞紐,包含有軌電車站、公交站、出租車??奎c和自行車停放區(qū)。這座位于會展中心東側(cè)的樞紐在未來還將容納更多的基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施,進一步推進該區(qū)域的城市化。交通樞紐的正前方是一個170米長的廣場,由東向西朝著MEETT的方向延伸,形成一條通往會場的單一入口路徑。
MEETT,Toulouse’s new Exhibition and Convention Centre,is located in the innovation zone north of Toulouse.The project is not only about architecture,but also about infrastructure,urbanism,landscape and public space.The 155,000m2exhibition and convention center is positioned in between the city and the countryside:it connects urbanized plots to the south– mainly dedicated to aeronautics,including the airport hangar of Airbus– to an agricultural landscape to the north.
This rural area,well connected and close to the center of Toulouse,is vulnerable to the pressure of urbanization.Our design uses the massive scale and diverse program of MEETT as an antidote to the sprawl of a standard exposition park,in order to preserve the surrounding Occitanic countryside.
MEETT is conceived as an active strip– ‘une bande active’ -a horizontal and compact project,divided in three parallel bands:a row of modular exhibition halls to the north;a convention center and multi-function event hall to the south;and a reception area to the center,featuring a silo car park for 3,000 cars.Instead of banishing parking underground or pushing it to the periphery of the site,where it has no relationship with the surrounding landscape,we placed the parking at the center of the project,covering a spine where amenities and access to the hall are concentrated.
By combining interior and exterior spaces,and establishing connections with the infrastructure–tramway,roads,airport– and surrounding countryside,a typically introvert typology,the expo,is transformed into an extrovert one.
MEETT is not an architectural intervention,but an urban machine.Both monumental in its scale and subtle in its overall impact,it will be a new gateway to Toulouse.
Northern strip– Exhibitions
The exhibition building at the northern strip is impressive in scale as it can be enjoyed as a single,nearly 700-m long space.The building is composed with a limited repertoire of functional elements– a series of black boxes (both on the ground and elevated in the air),white-colored steel profiles for the structure and a polycarbonate skin for the facade.Together they form a regular composition which emphasizes the giant scale of the building but also creates a bright and pleasant environment for the exhibition spaces.
The Exhibition Hall provides a total of 40,000m2of presentation area,which can function either as one major exhibition space or be separated into 7 modular halls,separated by a mechanized curtain.Two elevated mezzanines at either end of the hall provide space for reception or VIP program,while overlooking the main spaces.MEETT is a project about the relationship interiorexterior,and the Exhibition Hall is no exception,as the translucent fa?ade provides the giant hall with generous daylight.
The entire masterplan–including all buildings– is based on a 3-meter grid,following the standard expo distribution,which permits to dissect the building in 3x3 meter cells as if it was a Tetris board,providing endless possibilities to split the use of the ground but also forming an underlying system for all architectural components.
Central strip– Reception area
At the center of the project,a 32,700 m2reception area on the ground floor welcomes visitors into the exhibition halls,the exterior expo and the convention center.This is called the Rue Centrale,and functions,honoring its name,Weena-Zuid as a street– it is circulation area,information center,and public space all at once.Fully pedestrian,it can house from ticket offices to food stands.
Elevated above the Rue Centrale and directly accessible from it is the carpark,a four-story elevated silo that sits right in the middle of the project.This building functions as a ceremonial entrance directly into the heart of MEETT,connected to the exhibition areas.It is an open building,to maximize the use of natural light and allow views into the expos from the parking lots.
Southern strip– Events
The southern strip of MEETT consists of a multi-function Event Hall and a Convention Center combined in a single building also directly accessible from the Rue Centrale.The entire building can also be transformed into additional exhibition spaces on two levels.
The Event Hall and Convention Center building is designed as a machine.A system of moveable vertical shutters and horizontal partitions allows it to transform in few minutes into a large number of configurations,from small meeting rooms in the upper floors of the Convention Center to an open plan layout bathing in natural light on the ground floor.
A 13-m tall sliding fa?ade on the eastern face of the event hall can be opened and allow interior events to continue on the exterior event square.In total the southern strip provides a total leasable area of 65000 m2inside and 40000 m2outside of the expo area.
Navigation around MEETT is simple– the routes are intuitive,which combined with clear information signs throughout the complex makes it easy for visitors to find their way.Furthermore,the compactness of the expo reduces the distances that the public need to cover during their visit.The entire area is accessible to heavy vehicles,with a separate entry and exit point,and an internal road surrounding the north,west and south facades facilitates distribution and management.
MEETT also features a transportation hub with a tram station,a bus station,a taxi stop and a reception area for cyclists.This hub on the Eastern side of the expo has the potential to accommodate more infrastructure,anticipating the further urbanization of the area.Directly in front of the transportation hub,a 170m long plaza spans from East to the West,towards MEETT,and provides one single entrance route to MEETT,functioning as an open public area.
