Museum at Prairiefire / Verner Johnson
来自建筑事务所的描述。位于陆上公园的Prairiefire博物馆，庆祝堪萨斯地区的丰富故事，该故事来源于堪萨斯传统的受控草原燃烧事件。美林公司的房地产开发商联系了著名的博物馆建筑规划师 - Verner Johnson，协助创建一个与周围景观相匹配的结构。
该项目的首席架构师Jonathan Kharfen调研景观及其特点后，并想出一个点子，创建一座看起来像在这些领域火焰般燃烧的建筑。
Jonathan说：“这个设计具有讽刺意味，建筑物的工作并不只是唤起火焰的形象，事实上恰恰相反。”这里提出的障碍是如何捕捉火焰的向上和广泛的运动，将动画添加到由无生命的材料构成的建筑物中。解决方案是使用多色，彩虹不锈钢瓷砖的组合，与二向色玻璃混合创新使用。这些产品与石材作为背景相结合，提供了耐用性和设计多功能性，产生了生动，永恒的色彩。
From the architect. The architecture of the Museum at Prairiefire in Overland Park, Kansas celebrates the rich story of the region, stemming from the Kansas tradition of controlled prairie burns. Real Estate developer, Merrill Companies, contacted prominent Museum and Architect Planners – Verner Johnson to aid in creating a structure that would match the surrounding landscape. Jonathan Kharfen, the lead architect on the project examined the landscape and its characteristics and developed an idea to create a building that looked like flames ablaze in the fields. The design evoked a sense of irony, according to Jonathan, “It’s not traditionally a building’s job to conjure up images of fire, in fact, it’s quite the opposite”. The obstacle presented here was how to capture the upward and expansive movement of fire, adding animation to a building constructed of lifeless materials. The solution was to use a combination of multi-colored, iridescent stainless steel tiles, mixed with an innovative use of Dichroic Glass. These products, in conjunction with the stone volumes as a backdrop, provided durability and design versatility, resulting in vivid, inextinguishable color.

分色玻璃由一个建筑装饰玻璃制造商的研发团队Goldray Glass 与3M公司的合作研发。通过将3M的高级聚合物膜层压在两个或更多玻璃之间，Goldray Glass创造出通过透射和反射光显示出辉煌的色彩变化的产品。二向色夹层玻璃有冷色调和暖色调，可以集成到任何设计概念中作为焦点。
Dichroic glass came about through a collaboration between the R&D team at Goldray Glass –an architectural decorative glass manufacturer, and 3M. By laminating 3M's premium grade polymeric film between two or more lites of glass, Goldray Glass created a product that exhibits a brilliant color shift through transmitted and reflected light. Available in cool and warm tones, dichroic laminated glass can be integrated into any design concept as an accent or focal piece.

为了真正地捕获火焰元素，来自千年瓷砖的光干涉色不锈钢板被用来补充二向色玻璃。这两种材料的光和颜色变化特性模拟了火的独特特征。随着光线的全天变化，建筑物的颜色丰繁多变，如火焰般舞动闪烁。
To truly capture the fire element, Light Interference Color stainless steel panels – from Millennium Tiles, were used to complement the dichroic glass. The light and color changing properties of these two materials emulate the unique characteristics of fire. As the light conditions change throughout the day, the colors of the building move and dance the way flames flicker.

大厅两边的建筑物覆盖着当地采石场石灰石切成的薄板，主楼梯为红色的犹他砂岩。Verner Johnson说，翼厅有异形的女儿墙，让人想起草原上柔和曲折的草原山丘。分层的石头形成渐变，从底部较暗的“烧焦”石头到护墙附近的白色石头。石头颜色在不同的高度带混合以达到渐变效果。
The building wings on either side of the lobby are clad in locally quarried limestone cut into thin panels, and features red Utah sandstone at the main stair. Verner Johnson says these wings are clad with contoured parapets evoking the softly curving sculpted hills of the prairie. The stratified stone forms a gradient, from darker “charred” stone at the base, to near white stone at the parapet. The stones colors are mixed in varying band heights to achieve the gradient

建筑内部场景从街道到湿地开放。在大厅内，火焰形状形成有趣的体块空间和规模变化，创造无数的探索发现。为了唤起火焰的光环，“火线”的墙壁被设计得尽可能薄。窄管柱间隔25英寸，鼓励人们站在其之间。由于缺乏明显的结构使得大会堂似乎漂浮着，向四周延伸，动态中感染吞没访客。
Prairiefire博物馆是一个区域公民中心，将美国自然历史博物馆的世界级教育旅游展览带到渴求知识的社区，传播更广泛的文化和科学经验。
The interior invitingly opens through from street to wetlands. Within the Great Hall the fire shapes form interesting volumetric spaces and shifts in scale, creating countless moments for discovery. To evoke the aura of flames, the walls of the ‘lines of fire’ are designed as thin as possible. Narrow tube columns are spaced 25” apart, encouraging people to stand between them. The lack of apparent structure makes the Great Hall seem to float, expand around corners, and dynamically engulf the visitor.
The Museum at Prairiefire is a regional civic hub bringing world-class educational traveling exhibits from the American Museum of Natural History to a community hungry to engage in broader cultural and scientific experiences.
