Partially set into the earth of the vineyard, the slight forward tilt of the structure indicates its subterranean connection by ramp to the antique vault system. Upon entering, the visitor perceives a wonderful volume of space and steps out to the vineyard and past a caf233。. A foot path leads down to the entrance of the vault system. The return journey is made through a ramped passage dappled with light refracted through a reflecting pool. The visitor then arrives on the lowest level of the building which houses a wine bar, a multipurpose area and a shop with local products and books. Stairs and ramps connect to ground level with a generous wine shop and an upper floor with seminar rooms and offices. The roof terrace with spectacular views over the surrounding landscape and town can be made accessible on special occasions.39。Along with the bold geometry and glimmering skin, a striking playfulness distinguishes the structure from its architectural neighbors. The building tilts at a 5degree angle, as if it were tipsy, allowing Holl to sink approximately one third of the cube into the ground and link it via tunnel, in an apparently effortless way, to a 900year old network of wine vaults, about 65 feet downhill from the cube. Linking old and new, Holl managed to insert a Modern and idiosyncratic structure into the periphery of a historic region. And perhaps because of his refusal to yield to the pressure of ersatz surroundings, his leaning, aluminumclad cube seems right at home on the hillside...39。Liane Lefaivre, Architectural Record, July, 2004CRANBROOK INSTITUTE OF SCIENCEBloomfield Hills, MI, United States, 19931998PROGRAM: addition to and renovation of existing science museum and educational facilityCLIENT: Cranbrook Educational CommunityADDITION amp。 RENOVATION: 30,000 amp。 64,000 sfSTATUS: pletedThe new addition opens up the dead end circulation of the existing 1937 galleries。 the Hall of Minerals and the Hall of Man.

The slipped U shape, like the scientific diagram for strange attractors allows for multiple paths within the exhibitions and programs. With this concept as an analog, Steven Holl Architects aims for a free and openended addition. Its circuits are unique, allowing for the potential that no visit to the new science museum will be a repeat experience, rather each engagement is provocative and unpredictable. The new Institute is centered around an inner garden where scientific phenomena are exhibited in the open air. Within this Science Garden is the Story of Water。 water in liquid, solid and vapor is featured in flow pools, a House of Ice, and a House of Vapor. A light laboratory forms an entrance hall which functions as a changing exhibit. The Story of Water garden is divided into pavilions of liquid, solid and vapor. 39。Holl is perhaps the only architect practicing today who habitually engenders his work through three interwoven heuristic devices: first, a particularly sensitive reading of the context in which the work is situated。 second, an internalization of the proximities required by the brief and third, and most importantly, the evocation of a quasimythic narrative that endows the work with its lyrical thematic. Holl39。s Institute of Science offers the user a spatial sequence that is delicately articulated in didactic terms.39。Domus 826, 05/01/200039。The 39。architectural promenade39。 which winds inside and outside the building does not simply offer spectacular views, masterfully framed by a delicate and fetching work of architecture: in fact, along the entire itinerary Holl39。s architecture succeeds in stimulating other sense apart from sight39。.Area, Feb 1, 200039。With the pletion of a major addition to the Cranbrook Institute of Science, Steven Holl has produced fresh evidence of his architectural ingenuity. He has designed a splendid building of looping volumes, whose kinetic effects are the confident oute of two decades of typological research. On a more tactical level he provides immediate, sensual rewards unique encounters with eccentric, wellcrafted details. At a time when there is dwindling confidence that architects can make much of a difference to either the quality of the environment, or the quality of life, Holl has produced a building that is unequivocally ameliorative39。.

Within, the plan is exceptionally open and draws visitors along sloping pathways bathed in natural light, past bursts of contrasting colors and playful display. By attaching a new structure to bridge Saarinen39。s UShaped plan, Mr. Holl created a courtyard and brought a sense of motion and circulation to a layout that had previously ended in culdesacs39。.The New York Times, Jun 3, 1998AWARDSNew York AIA Project Award, USA, 1999NYC AIA Design Award, USA, 1995
