T3 Bayside是一座开创性木结构办公楼,位于安大略湖畔的多伦多新综合社区 Bayside ,高42米,是北美最高的木结构办公建筑。Hines在木结构办公楼领域确立了世界领先地位,其目标是为可持续木材建筑设定新标准,同时提供世界一流的办公环境,体现Bayside新兴社区“生活-工作-娱乐”一体化的精神。
T3 Bayside is a pioneering timber office building in Toronto's new mixed-use community, Bayside, on the shore of Lake Ontario. At 42 metres high, it is the tallest timber office buildings in North America. Having established itself as a world leader in timber office development, Hines' ambition for the project was to set a new standard for sustainable timber construction while providing a world-class office building which reflects the integrated 'live-work-play' ethos of the emerging Bayside community.
Enhancing the Public Realm. Occupying an important position in the neighbourhood, T3 Bayside has been designed to enhance the existing masterplan and to transform the formerly industrial shoreline into a vibrant urban destination. Arranged around a public plaza, the building is a welcoming pedestrian gateway to the Bayside development, drawing visitors into the site and connecting it with the adjacent park and the waterfront promenade beyond. Retail and café units at street level will create a hub of activity and make the plaza a natural meeting place and a lively social space to be shared by visitors, workers, and residents alike.
One of the building's most distinctive features is a sequence of stepped interior spaces which forms a continuous loop around the building's outer edges. The first three 'steps' are open to the public, acting as an extension to the plaza, creating an urban living room softening the transition from public to private space. In addition to providing space to meet friends, or simply pass time, the flexible double-height spaces will host pop-up events such as exhibitions, films, and performances. The steps are clearly articulated externally through the arrangement of fins and façade detailing framing the interior spaces. This relationship between interior and exterior makes the building easy to read and visually connects the plaza with the interior programme to encourage visitors into the building.
Flexible and Healthy Workspaces. The upper 'steps' belong to the office spaces and act as double height spaces joining two office floors. A key element of the design was offering tenants flexibility and the option to personalise their space. 'Soft spots' in the slabs can be removed or restored, allowing tenants to adapt the space to their preferred arrangement. The building's open and flexible floorplates can also meet the needs of a perse range of tenants, from small start-ups requiring only a small area, to large, established businesses who may want to occupy an entire floor, or multiple floors. These design elements allow the building to adapt to changing needs as businesses grow or as work practices evolve over time.
Targeting WELL Certification, the design is strongly centred on occupant wellbeing to provide world-class office space which can cater to modern methods of working and attract the best tenants. Internally, the timber is fully exposed, celebrating the building's structure while providing a warm, natural aesthetic and contributing to a healthy interior environment. Exceptional amenities, including a tenant lounge and a rooftop terrace with views over Lake Ontario, provide workers with a variety of break-out areas, encouraging a perse workday experience and access to the outdoors.
可持续木材建筑的典范:T3 Bayside 采用木结构的诸多好处之一是最大限度地减少了施工过程中对环境的影响,与传统办公楼相比,其含碳量估计减少了40-50%。该建筑以获得 LEED 金级认证为目标,采用了大量低能耗解决方案,其设计还具有可拆卸性,作为全生命周期可持续发展战略的一部分。木材构件之间的灵活连接意味着一旦 T3 Bayside的使用寿命结束,就可以简单地进行拆除,从而最大限度地减少浪费,延长材料的使用寿命,促进循环经济的发展。
A Model for Sustainable Timber Construction. Amongst the many benefits of T3 Bayside's timber structure is the minimised environmental impact in construction, resulting in an estimated 40-50% reduction in embodied carbon when compared to a traditional office building. Targeting LEED Gold certification, the building incorporates a number of low-energy solutions and, as part of an ambitious whole-life sustainability strategy, is also designed so that it can be disassembled. Mechanical joints between the timber components mean that once T3 Bayside has reached the end of its life it can simply be undone and the building disassembled, minimising waste, extending the life of the materials and contributing to a circular economy.
