无用之用  

乌镇北栅粮仓项目双曲线桥 

从功能上讲，双曲线桥将原本断头的室外路径连成一个环路，但这并不是它存在的必要条件。它或许更像一个“无用之物”，不期而遇间在精神、情感上触动我们。一方面，水乡乌镇的河道上有许多石拱桥，飞越粮仓的这座桥是在呼应自身所在的地域；另一方面，钢桁架双曲线桥也为沉稳的粮仓带来运动感和活力，亦如当年粮仓里输送粮食的移动式传输机；而更吸引我们的是，桥提供了一个意外的鸟瞰视点，面对粮仓、乌镇、农田与自然，体认正在发生或消失在乌镇的脉动与气息。

the Useless Use

Hyperbola Bridge of Granaries in North Zone of Wuzhen

Speaking of the function of the hyperbola bridge, it connects the outside paths of the site into a loop, otherwise disconneted. Yet, this is not a necessary reason to be. It feels more like a "useless object", touches and moves us out of blue, emotionally, spiritually. On the one hand, it dialogues with traditional stone bridges in Wuzhen (a water town). On the other hand, the steel truss of the hyperbola bridge brings movements and dynamism into the calm and steady granaries, exactly like the mobile conveyer once used in the granaries. But above all, it provides a totally surprising bird's-eye view over the granaries, over Wuzhen, over farmlands and nature. It enables us to contemplate and actually feel the ups and downs, the pulses and breaths of the place, of Wuzhen.
