360°无死角——无限泳池
For thrill-seeking swimmers, the chance to take a death-defying dip might not be far away.
对于寻求刺激的游泳者来说,冒着生命危险下水的机会可能并不遥远。
Plans to build a rooftop infinity pool -- with 360-degree views of the London skyline -- are in motion.
建造一座屋顶无限泳池的计划已经正在进行中,可以让人360度欣赏伦敦的天际线。
The designs for the 600,000-liter pool and 55-story building, named Infinity London, have been unveiled by Compass Pools.
指南针泳池公司公布了这座60万升的游泳池和55层楼高的建筑的设计方案,名为“无限伦敦”。
The designers claim the concept is a world-first, describing the structure as "the only building in the world to incorporate a 360-degree infinity pool."
设计师称这一概念是世界首创,称其为“世界上唯一一座包含360度无限泳池的建筑”。
The pool will be made from cast acrylic and will feature transparent sides and floors, so visitors below will be able to see swimmers splashing around above them.
游泳池将由亚克力铸造而成,并以透明的侧面和地板为特色,因此游客可以在下面看到游泳者在上面戏水。
To keep views pristine, there are no stairs on the outside of the pool or the building -- instead, a spiral staircase that rotates and rises through the water provides access for swimmers.
为了保持景观的原貌,泳池或建筑的外部没有楼梯——相反,一个旋转并在水中上升的螺旋楼梯为游泳者提供了通道。
The designers envisage that the pool will sparkle like "jewel-topped torch" at night, with the building fitted with a collection of lights.
设计师们设想,游泳池将在夜间像“宝石顶火炬”一样闪闪发光,整个建筑配备了一系列灯光。
"We faced some quite major technical challenges to this building, the biggest one being how to actually get into the pool," said Compass Pool's swimming pool designer and technical director Alex Kemsley in an interview on the company's website.
指南针泳池公司的游泳池设计师兼技术总监亚历克斯·肯斯利在公司网站上接受采访时说:“我们在这座建筑上遇到了一些相当重大的技术挑战,其中最大的挑战是如何进入游泳池。”
"The solution is based on the door of a submarine, coupled with a rotating spiral staircase which rises from the pool floor when someone wants to get in or out -- the absolute cutting edge of swimming pool and building design and a little bit James Bond to boot!"
“解决方案是在潜水艇的门的基础上,再加上一个旋转的螺旋楼梯,当有人想要进出游泳池时,它就会从游泳池的地板上升起——这绝对是游泳池和建筑设计的前沿,还有一点詹姆斯邦德的味道!”
