作为最前沿的轮胎设计的先驱，韩泰轮胎在其对质量和严格测试的保障方面尤为自豪。位于亚洲“硅谷”——韩国大田的韩泰轮胎新研发中心，其建筑设计就是对这种价值观的一种表达。这一最先进设施的核心——轮胎测试和研究实验室——对受邀参观者和工作人员开放展示，以强调韩泰轮胎品牌的核心特质。作为韩泰轮胎对企业文化和品牌的新愿景的一部分，这个98,000m2的设施旨在吸引行业顶尖人才，并为他们提供富有灵感的工作场所——光线充足的办公室、先进的实验室、活跃的社交空间，以培养开放和创新的企业文化。它强调在工作场所的非正式互动，并为自发的团队讨论提供一些中心会议单元。

设计旨在创造一座时尚、当代、神秘且拥有漂浮的银色屋顶的建筑。对现有建筑的分析提供了对测试空间的深刻认识——这些实验室有1/3需要隔离区，因此必须位于首层空间，其余需要处在两层通高的区域，以满足设备要求。建筑的剖面是解决该复杂空间问题的关键，建筑平面布置呈五指状，其中办公空间与工业车间单元并行。除了创建一个动态而整体的平面，促进不同区域的视线交流，平面布局相当灵活，可满足未来使用上的调整。指间的分隔为中心区域引入自然光。从剖面看，楼层控制在4～7 层，以回应政府对场地的高度限制。

研究空间沿着顶部照明的脊线延伸，从南面的餐厅和入口延伸到北面的员工宿舍。玻璃椭圆会议舱悬置在通高空间中，作为采光井，引入贯通建筑的自然光。流线的策略自然形成了公共区域和更敏感产品开发区域之间的区隔，令游客们可以跟随导览参观建筑，从壮观的作为最新产品展览空间的大厅，沿着可以看到测试区的轴线，走到室外公园。设计将所有这些不同的功能统筹在宽阔的银色顶棚这一大胆的操作之下。（庞凌波 译）

Pioneering the latest advances in tyre design,Hankook prides itself on its commitment to quality and rigorous testing. The design of its new research and development facility in the heart of Asia's "silicon valley" in Daejeon, South Korea is conceived as an expression of these values. The centrepiece of the stateof-the-art facility are the tyre testing and research laboratories, on display to invited visitors and staff to reinforce Hankook's core identity. An integral part of Hankook's new vision for a corporate culture and brand, the 98,000-square-metre facility aims to attract the industry's top talent, providing an inspirational place to work, with light filled offices, advanced laboratories and dynamic social spaces to nurture a culture of openness and innovation. It lays emphases on informal interaction within the workplace, with central meeting pods for spontaneous team meetings.

The architectural vision was to create a sleek,contemporary and mysterious building with a floating silver roof. Analysis of the existing buildings provided an insight into the testing spaces – one third of these laboratories require isolation pits,so have to be located on the ground floor, and the rest need to be located in double-height areas to accommodate equipment. The building's section was key to resolving this complex spatial puzzle.The building is arranged as five fingers, with parallel office and industrial units. Aside from creating a dynamic, integrated plan that promotes visual connections between different areas, the arrangement is highly flexible to enable future changes in use. Breaks between each finger draw daylight into the heart of the floor plate. In profile,the levels step up from four to seven storeys, in response to the height restriction imposed by an adjacent government site.

The research spaces extend along a top-lit central spine that runs from the restaurant and entrance in the south to the staff accommodation to the north. Glazed oval meeting pods are suspended above the full-height space, which acts as a light well, drawing daylight through the building.The circulation strategy creates a natural divide between public areas and more sensitive product development zones, allowing visitors to follow a tour through the building, from the spectacular lobby, which functions as an exhibition space for the latest product range, along the spine with views into the testing areas, to the parkland outside. All these different functions are unified beneath the bold gesture of a wide silver roof canopy.

AN Jun: Foster + Partners has shaped a research and development complex for Hankook Tire Design,integrating multiple functions including testing,research and development, conferences, restaurants and dormitories. Adopting unit-type superimposition combination, converging into an intensive and efficient R&D space with giant simple roofs, creating a symbolic and iconic image for the company. What is even more touching is the central hall under the middle north-south ridges and light belts, as well as the gray space of the outer arcshaped colonnade. The richness of the lobby space and the sense of science and technology reflect the modern spirit of the R&D centre, provide employees with a fun place for communication, and truly reflect the vibrant interior of the R&D complex. The gray area formed by the outer circle colonnade makes the integrated geometric entity and the surrounding mountain environment into a fusion bond. With the help of lawns and water bodies, the humble external image of the R&D centre is formed, so that we can feel Foster's understanding of the philosophy of the East.

ZHOU Dongliang: Foster + Partners has created this new benchmark of central research and development centre by integrating the cutting-edge technology,forward-looking ideas and unique corporate culture of Hankook with its high-tech architectural approaches.The five-finger layout, with a linear atrium in the middle, is designed to explore the form of workspace organisation and highlight the spirit of research and development of advanced technology. It includes highly controlled laboratories, cooperation-oriented workspace, and inspired group meeting pot, all of which are arranged in a simple but symbolic form. It is characterised by environmental protection and hightech. A series of advanced green building technologies and facilities create a world-class workplace, which enables R&D personnel to devote themselves to work,stimulate their creativity, improve productivity and set up new tyre technical standards.
