Ron Arad的工作室改装了水门酒店的公共空间——这是由意大利建筑师 Luigi Moretti 在1960年到1965年期间建造的——主要作为建筑物检修的部分。

Ron Arad's studio refitted the public spaces of the Watergate Hotel – which was built by Italian architect Luigi Moretti between 1960 and 1965 – as part of a major overhaul of the building.

该综合体因为水门政治丑闻而在一个阶段变得很出名,这导致美国总统 Richard Nixon在1974年的辞职。

“我要承认:最初这个项目所吸引我们的确实是水门事件,” Arad 陈述道。

The complex became famous as the stage for the Watergate political scandal, which led to the resignation of US president Richard Nixon in 1974.
"I have a confession to make: our initial attraction to this project was actually the Watergate scandal," said Arad in a statement.

Arad重新设计了低层的几个区域,包括入口门厅、酒店大堂、休闲区、美食餐厅、酒吧、主要的电梯大堂和外部餐饮露台。

Arad redeisgned areas on the ground and lower ground floors, including the entrance foyer and hotel lobby, the casual and fine dining restaurants, the hotel bar, the main elevator lobby, and the external dining terrace.

设计的目的是运用曲线和Moretti结构的现代主义色彩,同时在空间中影响人们的预期流线。

“在这样一个重要的时期内工作,你不能忽视其背景,但同时你又不想模仿它,” Arad说。“相反,你想创造一些互补的东西,更重要的是,这是一些创新的东西。”

The designs are intended to compliment the curves and Modernist palette of Moretti's structure, while influencing the anticipated flow of people through the space.
"Working within such a significant period piece, you can't ignore the context, but at the same time you don't want to mimic it," Arad said. "Instead you want to create something complementary, but importantly, something new."

接待处的墙壁、桌子和柱子都是用金属带包裹的,而威士忌酒吧的垂直表面由弯曲的玻璃柜组成,里面放满了成堆的酒瓶。

颜色鲜艳的家具作为Arad与意大利品牌Moroso长期合作的一部分,遍及场所中。

Walls, desks and columns in the reception are wrapped in metal bands, while vertical surfaces in the whiskey bar comprise curved glass cabinets filled with stacks of liquor bottles.
Brightly coloured furniture, produced as part of Arad's longstanding relationship with Italian brand Moroso, is used throughout.

作为华盛顿的豪华酒店,水门曾经住过前参议员Bob Dole,在新闻报道Monica Lewinsky与前总统克林顿的事件之后,她也来此避难。

水门事件始于1972年民主党全国委员会(DNC)在该酒店的办公总部所遭受到的一次非法阻挠行为,当时窃贼试图窃取和拦截通信。

Regarded as one of Washington DC's plushest hotels, Watergate was once home to former senator Bob Dole and was also where Monica Lewinsky took refuge after news emerged of her affair with former president Bill Clinton.
The Watergate scandal began in 1972 with a break-in at the Democratic National Committee (DNC) headquarters in offices of the hotel complex, when burglars attempted to steal and intercept communications.

尼克松政府试图掩盖它的参与,但美国国会的一项调查导致政府的崩溃和总统的辞职。

这个术语Watergate涵盖了一系列的秘密和经过管理的非法活动的开展,从那以后,后缀“门”被用来标志更多的丑闻。

Nixon's administration attempted to cover up its involvement, but an investigation by US Congress led to a breakdown of government and the president's resignation.
The term Watergate came to encompass an array of covert and illegal activities undertaken by the administration, and the suffix "-gate" has been lent to numerous scandals ever since.

根据Ron Arad 建筑事务所的说法,该酒店已经年久失修,并且于2010年被转手。它将于2016年6月14日正式重新开放。

以色列出生的Arad在2008年成立了自己的建筑工作室,与他的设计公司Ron Arad Associates协同工作,该设计公司于1989年在伦敦成立。

According to Ron Arad Architects, the hotel fell into disrepair in later years and eventually changed hands in 2010. It officially reopened 14 June 2016.
Israel-born Arad set up his architecture studio in 2008, working alongside his design firm Ron Arad Associates founded in 1989 in London.

该工作室其他正在进行的项目包括:一座癌症治疗中心,将为以色列和巴勒斯坦的社区服务,这是2016年1月 Dezeen采访Arad的重点。

“建筑师有义务去做优秀的建筑”他说,指在冲突的地区工作,如约旦河西岸。

Other buildings the studio has ongoing include a cancer treatment centrethat will serve communities in both Israel and Palestine, which was the focus of Dezeen's interview with Arad in January 2016.
"Architects have a duty to do good things" he said, referring to working in conflict areas like the West Bank.
