A public exhibition hall named ‘The Orbit’ is taking shape on Shanghai’s West Bund waterfront. This studio has designed the building to be a cultural heart for the new Financial Hub in Xuhui District and a landmark on the Huangpu riverside.

上海西岸滨水区正在建造一个名为“The Orbit”的公共展览馆。该工作室将该建筑设计为位于徐汇区新金融中心的文化中心和黄浦江畔的地标建筑。

Visitors will be greeted by the building from all angles, with 360-degree accessibility, and can climb up and around the structure itself. The façade resembles a series of interwoven ribbons that form an undulating set of publicly accessible staircases, bridges, and terraces. These allow visitors to the new district to ascend to the building’s rooftop garden and take advantage of the multiple viewing platforms overlooking the river.

游客可以从各个角度欣赏该建筑，360 度无遮挡，并可以爬上建筑并绕着建筑本身行走。立面类似于一系列相互交织的丝带，形成一组起伏的公共楼梯、桥梁和露台。这些让新区的游客可以登上建筑的屋顶花园，并利用俯瞰河流的多个观景台。

The idea is to create a building designed to be explored, experienced and animated by the people who visit it.

这个理念是创建一座供参观者探索、体验和激发兴趣的建筑。

The design of The Orbit takes inspiration from traditional Chinese moon bridges, but with a futuristic twist that creates a sense of constant rotational motion. Glazed openings reveal the inner exhibition hall, and draw people in.

The Orbit 的设计灵感来自中国传统的月亮桥，但带有未来主义的扭转，营造出一种不断旋转的感觉。玻璃开口展示出内部展厅，吸引人们进入。

The design team has placed the exhibition space – the primary function – at the centre of the building, complementing it with further facilities on the upper levels. A second gallery encircles the main hall to catch the attention of people passing outside, looking in.

设计团队将展览空间（主要功能）置于建筑的中心，并在上层补充了其他设施。第二个画廊环绕主厅，吸引路过的人往里看。

The exhibition hall is currently under construction, with completion expected in 2024.

展厅目前正在建设中，预计 2024 年完工。

The building is located directly opposite the site where our ‘Seed Cathedral’ UK Pavilion stood in 2010 for the Shanghai World Expo, making this a particularly meaningful project for the studio.

该建筑位于 2010 年上海世博会“Seed Cathedral”英国馆所在地的正对面，这对工作室来说是一个特别有意义的项目。
