蘭卡斯特大學健康創(chuàng)新校區(qū)的主要專業(yè)是改善預(yù)防性醫(yī)療保健，新冠肺炎疫情已證明這是至關(guān)重要的醫(yī)學專業(yè)。2016年，約翰·麥卡蘭建筑事務(wù)所受委托為校區(qū)設(shè)計總體規(guī)劃，場地占地11公頃，其中包括首期建設(shè)的創(chuàng)新中心大樓。創(chuàng)新中心旨在灌輸一種有益于身心健康的有序平靜感，將匯集大學健康和醫(yī)學學院相關(guān)學者與包括英國國家醫(yī)療服務(wù)體系（NHS）入駐企業(yè)在內(nèi)的當?shù)胤?wù)提供商。這棟五層大樓呈涼亭狀，掩蓋了實際規(guī)模，與周邊地貌融合共生，不會讓人感覺突兀。

創(chuàng)新中心的形式不受時間影響，容納了多種多樣的空間，適合傳統(tǒng)的正式工作方式和較新的協(xié)作方式，這兩種方式都得益于寬敞的社交空間。大樓導(dǎo)航方便，配有頂部照明的玻璃通道路線，營造出一種有凝聚力的大學氛圍。在咖啡館和禮堂可以眺望周圍的林地和連綿起伏的山丘。眾所周知，臨床工作常常沉溺于屏幕之中，這些景色讓人們有了片刻喘息的機會。立面覆蓋著混凝土和古銅色穿孔陽極氧化鋁通風板——機器切割出抽象的數(shù)字化樹木圖案。

這些外包材料環(huán)繞著入口，柔和地賦予立面活力，巧妙地利用全天和四季不斷變化的自然光特征。約翰·麥卡蘭建筑事務(wù)所的項目建筑師兼助理保羅·伊斯特回顧了工作室在創(chuàng)新中心的工作，“我們在工作室與景觀建筑團隊密切合作，確保項目伊始創(chuàng)新中心大樓就與其環(huán)境共融，最大限度地與外界積極互動。我們努力將創(chuàng)新中心的大樓融入周圍地形，提升我們接觸大自然獲得的快感?！?/p>

創(chuàng)新中心的建筑愿景是令建筑在視覺和能耗方面與環(huán)境保持更加和諧的關(guān)系，約翰·麥卡蘭建筑事務(wù)所實施的生物多樣性種植策略正是愿景的組成部分。

大樓的設(shè)計還響應(yīng)了現(xiàn)在廣泛認可的一項需求，即為公眾提供綠色空間。新冠疫情再次凸顯了這個問題。工作室創(chuàng)始合伙人約翰·麥卡蘭說：“過去的一年讓人們看到了世界面臨的驚人變化，有鑒于此，我們認為設(shè)計經(jīng)久耐用的建筑，為培養(yǎng)歸屬感提供持久的場所愈加重要。這些都是我們設(shè)計健康創(chuàng)新中心和其他建筑物時要實現(xiàn)的目標?！?/p>

健康創(chuàng)新校區(qū)是蘭卡斯特大學與約翰·麥卡蘭建筑事務(wù)所的第四次合作。另外三座獲獎建筑分別是研究生統(tǒng)計中心、查爾斯·卡特大樓和工程系大樓。此外，事務(wù)所的建筑師團隊還針對大學校園制作了一份全面的多項目總體規(guī)劃。

Lancaster University’s Health Innovation Campus is focused on improving preventative healthcare， a medical specialism that the COVID-19 pandemic has shown to be of utmost importance. In 2016， John McAslan + Partners was commissioned to design a master plan for an 11-hectare site for the Campus including its first phase， the Innovation Hub building. Designed to instill a sense of orderly calm conducive to both mental and physical wellbeing， the Innovation Hub will bring together academics linked to the University’s Faculty of Health and Medicine with local service providers including NHS tenants. This a large， five-storey building， yet its pavilion-like form disguises its scale and fits in unobtrusively with the surrounding topography.

Timeless in form， the Innovation Hub houses a variety of spaces conducive to both formal and traditional ways of working and more recent informal collaborative methods. Both benefit from generous social spaces. Easy to navigate， and with top-lit glazed circulation routes， the building enjoys a cohesive， collegiate atmosphere. A café and auditorium overlook surrounding woodland and rolling hills; the views providing a clinically acknowledged need for respite from work on screens. Elevations are clad in concrete and bronze-coloured perforated anodised aluminium ventilation panels - machine cut with patterns of abstracted and digitised tree motifs.

These wrap around the entrance， discreetly animate facades and play subtly with the changing quality of natural light throughout the day and the seasons. Project Architect and Associate at John McAslan + Partners， Paul East， reflects on the studio’s work on the Innovation Hub， ”At the studio， we work closely with our landscape architecture team to ensure that from the outset our buildings are embedded into their context in a way that maximises a positive rapport with the outside world.At the Innovation Hub， we’ve worked hard to embed the building into its terrain and to promote the pleasure we get from being exposed to nature.”

The biodiverse planting strategy implemented by John McAslan + Partners at the Hub is a part of this vision for buildings that enjoy a more harmonious relationship with the environment both visually and in terms of their energy consumption.

It also responds to a now widely acknowledged need to provide the public with access to green space. Again， something the current pandemic has highlighted. Founding partner of the studio， John McAslan， says， “This past year has brought to light the phenomenal change that the world is facing and， in light of this， we think it is all the more important to be designing buildings that age well and provide long-lasting places for fostering a sense of belonging. These are the things we have set out to achieve at the Health Innovation Hub and with our other buildings.”

The Health Innovation Campus is the fourth collaboration between Lancaster University and John McAslan + Partners. The other three award-winning buildings are the Postgraduate Statistics Centre， the Charles Carter Building and the Engineering Building. The architects have also produced a comprehensive multi-project masterplan for the university campus.
