印度·一树山社区会堂

我们要向已故的HRS Rao先生、他的儿子Kamlesh Rao先生以及整个Rao家庭表示感谢，感谢他们在打造这座建筑的过程中的支持。特别感谢Muniraj、Balachandran和Srinath，他们在现场工作中是不可或缺的支持，使这座建筑得以按照SRDA的愿景实现。最衷心的感谢送给所有工匠团队，他们倾注了心血和汗水，为Byrasandra的居民打造了这座建筑。We would like to express our gratitude to the late Mr. HRS Rao, Mr. Kamlesh Rao, his son and the entire Rao Family for their support through the journey of making this building. Great thanks to Muniraj, Balachandran and Srinath who have been the onsite pillars for getting this building executed in the way SRDA envisioned it. And the biggest thank you to the entire team of craftsmen that have put their blood and sweat into making this building for the people of Byrasandra.

SRDA（注：具体机构或团体名称）于2015年开始在Hosur的Byrasandra建造社区中心。这是为了一位热爱的赞助人，他希望用一座建筑物来深情地致敬他的土地和人民。这座建筑被构想为一个纪念碑，将作为一个活生生的记忆，记录一个人与他的土地之间的关系，怀旧之情，并为它所服务的人们赋予一种身份认同。这个社区大厅现在安静地伫立在Hosur美丽的风景中，成为对其赞助人HRS Rao先生的一种纪念。

SRDA began work to build a community centre in Byrasandra, Hosur in 2015. It was for a patron who lovingly wished to dedicate a building to his land and people. The building is imagined as a monument that would last for many years as a living memory of the relationship of a man to his land, of nostalgia, and give an identity to the people it’s built for. This community hall now rests amidst the beautiful landscape of Hosur in the memory of its patron, MR. HRS Rao.

这个项目的开始源于一次引人入胜的邂逅。SRDA的工作在一家报纸上亮相，引起了班加罗尔一位匿名作家的注意。最初以为是一位年轻女性想要为她的祖村做贡献，然而萨米拉（Samira）却惊讶地遇到了HRS Rao先生，一个弯腰驼背、拄拐走路的88岁哈佛毕业生，颇具魅力。他对出生地的深深热爱以及怀念祖先、想要造福社区的愿望推动了这个项目。我们的合作以相互信任和偶尔的设计分歧为特点。尽管Rao先生在93岁时离世，但他的遗产通过Byrasandra社区大厅得以延续。

The inception of this project stems from an intriguing encounter. SRDA's work, featured in a newspaper, attracted the attention of an anonymous writer in Bangalore. Expecting a young woman seeking to contribute to her ancestral village, Samira was surprised to meet Mr. HRS Rao, a hunch-backed, walking-with-a-stick and charismatic, 88-year-old Harvard alumnus. His unwavering love for his birthplace and a desire to honour his ancestors and benefit his community fueled the project. Our collaboration was marked by mutual trust and occasional design disagreements. Despite Mr. Rao's passing at 93, his legacy lives on through the Byrasandra Community Hall.

这个位于班加罗尔机场两小时车程的场地，拥有令人叹为观止的风景，被花岗岩丰富的地形、花岗岩采石场以及村庄中充满生机的土坯房所环绕。这里生活繁忙，还有金盏花田，为设计提供了丰富的视觉和质感线索。前往这个场地的旅程呈现出田野和湖泊的全景，给萨米拉留下了难以磨灭的印象。这个位于班加罗尔机场两小时车程的场地，拥有令人叹为观止的风景，被花岗岩丰富的地形、花岗岩采石场以及村庄中充满生机的土坯房所环绕。这里生活繁忙，还有金盏花田，为设计提供了丰富的视觉和质感线索。前往这个场地的旅程呈现出田野和湖泊的全景，给萨米拉留下了难以磨灭的印象。

The site, located two hours from Bangalore airport, boasts breathtaking landscapes flanked by granite-rich terrain, granite quarries, and the village's adobe houses, bustling with life and marigold fields, which provided a rich visual and textural cue. The journey to the site offered panoramic views of fields and lakes, etching an indelible image in Samira’s mind.

Rao先生在一棵雄伟的榕树下分享了他对这座建筑的愿景，希望它成为类似于孟买的维多利亚终点站的一座纪念性象征。这一愿景成为设计过程的催化剂，花岗岩和榕树成为整个项目的中心主题。

Mr. Rao shared his vision for the building under a majestic banyan tree, aspiring for it to be a monumental symbol akin to the Victoria Terminus in Mumbai. This vision was the catalyst for the design process, with the granite and the banyan tree becoming central motifs throughout the project.

Byrasandra的文化和自然背景深刻影响了社区大厅的设计。一个与项目场地对齐的神圣神庙在塑造设计方面发挥了关键作用，现在它举办社区婚礼和仪式。来自社区的叙事与团队的创意想法相结合，被巧妙地融入到建筑中，创造了庆祝、聚集和仪式的空间。Byrasandra的文化和自然环境深刻影响了社区大厅的设计。一个与项目场地对齐的神圣神殿在塑造设计方面发挥了关键作用，如今它承办社区婚礼和仪式。社区的叙事与团队的创意理念相结合，被巧妙地融入建筑中，创造了庆祝、聚会和仪式的空间。

Byrasandra's cultural and natural context deeply influenced the community hall's design. A sacred shrine, aligned with the project site, played a pivotal role in shaping the design, which now hosts community weddings and ceremonies. Narratives from the community, combined with the team's creative ideas, were subtly integrated into the building, creating spaces for celebration, gathering, and ritual.

这座建筑的平面图汲取了传统印度寺庙建筑的灵感，包括一个中央大厅和一个用于各种社区活动的室外区域。SRDA的设计理念强调建筑作为一个逐渐展开的体验，包含了中间空间和感官的丰富性。

The building's plan draws inspiration from traditional Indian temple architecture, featuring a central hall and an outdoor area for various community activities. SRDA’s design philosophy emphasises architecture as an experience that unfolds gradually, with interstitial spaces and sensory richness.

建筑的形态通过厚实的石墙的坚固感与悬浮的石天花板和精致的钢制鳍片的轻盈感取得了平衡。每一个细节，从受田野启发的地板图案到回收的桉树原木，都增添了意义和美学深度的层次。

The building's form balances the brutal solidity of thick stone walls with the lightness of a floating stone ceiling and delicate steel fins. Every detail, from field-inspired flooring patterns to reclaimed eucalyptus logs, adds layers of meaning and aesthetic depth.

SRDA坚持BLIRS的可持续发展理念，强调美丽、持久、本土、回收和小规模元素。《One Tree Hill Community Hall》与这一理念相一致，采用当地花岗岩、本土技术、回收材料，并具有较小的生态足迹。整个石工程由一组当地穆斯林工匠完成，他们来自该地区。整个团队一直从切割第一块石头一直工作到最后的润饰。这使所有人在工作中建立了强烈的团队合作感，以及对所从事工作的个人联系和自豪感。

SRDA adheres to the sustainability philosophy of BLIRS, emphasising Beautiful, Lasting, Indigenous, Recycled, and Small-scale elements. The One Tree Hill Community Hall aligns with this philosophy, utilising local granite, indigenous techniques, recycled materials, and a small ecological footprint. The entire stone work has been done by a team of local Muslim craftsmen who are from within the region. The entire team has stuck around from cutting the first piece of stone to the very last finishing piece. This has given all a great sense of teamwork and a personal connection and sense of pride in the work undertaken.

社区大厅被设计成一个共享空间，为村民提供了一个引以为豪和认同的点。它在景观中的视觉突显使其成为一个不可错过的地标。这座建筑鼓励社区聚会和庆祝活动，培养了村民之间的所有权感和自豪感。

The community hall is designed to be a shared space, providing a point of pride and identity for the villagers. Its visual prominence in the landscape makes it an unmistakable landmark. The building encourages community gatherings and celebrations, fostering a sense of ownership and pride among the villagers.

《One Tree Hill Community Hall》不仅仅是一座建筑物；它是对HRS Rao先生的热情和奉献精神以及SRDA协作精神的见证。在这个场地的自然之美和社区的故事的丰富滋养下，Byrasandra现在拥有了一座为居民而建的建筑。这让他们对自己的东西有着巨大的所有权感。我们努力为社区提供一座令他们引以为傲并喜欢的建筑。我们也迫不及待地等待着人们开始使用它。也许时间会告诉我们，他们是否真的喜欢这座建筑。这座建筑等待着被人们和周围的自然接纳。

The One Tree Hill Community Hall is more than just a building; it is a testament to the passion and dedication of Mr. HRS Rao and the collaborative spirit of SRDA. Enriched by the site's natural beauty and the community's stories, Byrasandra now has a building which is made for its people, by its people. This gives them an immense sense of ownership for what they can call their own. We have made efforts to give to the community a building that they are proud of and enjoy.  We are also eagerly waiting for people to start using it. Maybe time will tell us if they really enjoy the building or not. The building awaits to be taken over by its people and the nature around it.
