史蒂文·奇爾頓（Steven Chilton）建築事務所完成了無錫太湖劇院的設計方案，這是一種看起來像中國竹林的鋼結構。這座可容納2000個座位的劇院位於中國東部上海附近的無錫市，旨在容納Franco Dragone開創的永久水上表演。

史蒂芬·奇爾頓（steven chilton）的建築師受到宜興竹海風景區的啟發，宜興是中國最大的竹林。
建築的外觀由三個主要元素組成：柱群，遮陽天蓬和外牆。
steven chilton architects were inspired by the sea of bamboo park in yixing， the largest bamboo forest in china。 the building’s appearance is composed of three primary elements， the columns， the shade canopy and the building envelope。
細長的白色柱子代表竹林的抽象化表達，圍繞在建築的外部，以在建築的立面和周圍的景觀之間提供一個屏障。各個入口周圍的“竹”列清晰可見，以幫助構造進入建築的通道。
representing an abstract impression of a bamboo forest， the slender white columns are positioned around the perimeter of the building in such a way as to provide a screen between the building facade and surrounding landscape。 the ‘bamboo’ columns clear around the various entrances to help frame the accesses into the building。
遮陽天篷環繞著建築的頂部。從概念上看，它象徵著竹林頂端的茂密竹葉。天篷由一系列三角形的百葉窗構成，並使用金色陽極氧化鋁作為材料。
the shade canopy wraps around the perimeter of the building at roof level。 conceptually， it represents the canopy of leaves that exist at the top of a bamboo forest。 the canopy is made up of various triangular bays containing rows of gold anodised aluminium louvres。
每個百葉窗都是隨機的方式排列，為建築帶來有機的質感，並隨著時間的變化投下斑駁的光影。窗格的不同角度則能夠使這種變化的感覺得到進一步突顯。
從結構上看，三角形的窗格能夠將立柱頂端的載荷分散到建築的主要支撐結構中。天蓬和立柱系統能夠為建築的立面提供遮陽，以被動形式降低建築的冷卻負荷。
each bay is orientated randomly to create an organic quality to the structure and light and shade patterns that fall across the building envelope through the day。 each bay of louvres is also set at different angles to heighten the sense of variation when viewed from different angles。
structurally， each bay of louvres is supported on a triangular lattice structure that braces the tops of the columns and transfers their load into the primary structure of the building。 the environmental purpose of the shade canopy and columns is to provide shade over the surface of the facade and passively lower the cooling load on the building。
建築圍護結構主要由噴塗的砌塊以及玻璃幕牆組成。通高的玻璃幕牆圍繞著整個入口大廳，為主要的公共區域提供了最大化的視野。
the building envelope is primarily composed of rendered and painted block-work and curtain wall glazing。 the glazing is the full height of the building in and above the entrance lobby to provide maximum views into and out of the main public areas。
玻璃的表面上還燒結以白色和金色的條帶圖案，同樣也是模仿了竹林的形態，並能夠使環繞在建築外部的白色柱群產生更加強烈的效果。到了夜晚，建築的外牆將由燈光從下方照亮，變成了一座飄渺的燈塔，在柱群構成的竹林之間露出斑駁的身影，從而將遊客和觀眾從湖岸和周圍吸引過來。
it is fritted with white and gold stripes that travel the full height of the building mimicking the ‘bamboo’ columns and contributing to the effect of the building being the outer edge of a forest of bamboo。 at night， the building envelop is illuminated from below， becoming an ethereal beacon， glimpsed between the forest of ‘bamboo’ columns， drawing spectators and audience in from across the lake and surrounding development。
