Black Glass Band: The Dark Side of the Entire Facade

The middle section of a white building is encircled by a continuous band of dark coated glass. During the day, the glass is completely opaque, resembling a black mirror that reflects the sky and surrounding trees. The white volumes above and below the glass band thus appear as two separate, suspended blocks. The proportion of black and white is precise, with no third color. Avoid: allowing the glass to reveal interior furniture and lighting, the glass band being divided into grids by mullions, using blue or green reflective glass, adding a third type of exterior wall material.

一棟白色建築的中段被一整圈深色鍍膜玻璃帶環繞,玻璃在白天完全不透明,像一條黑色的鏡面,反射天空與周圍的樹;玻璃帶上下的白色量體因此像是分離的兩塊,中間懸空。黑與白的比例精準,沒有第三個顏色。避免:讓玻璃透出室內的家具與燈光、玻璃帶被豎框分割成一格一格、使用藍色或綠色的反光玻璃、加入第三種外牆材料。
