活動主題
Based in Kansas City, Missouri, The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art cares for a superlative collection of more than 42,000 art objects and is best known for its extensive Asian art, European and American paintings, photography, modern sculpture, African, Native American and Egyptian galleries.
Offering free admission to all, and funded by private support, the museum is nationally and internationally acclaimed and serves a broad region within a 300-mile radius.
Rarely is a museum gifted with two architectural icons. Here, the first, an original Beaux Arts monument, was funded by the visionary legacies of William Rockhill Nelson, founder of The Kansas City Star and civic leader, and Mary McAfee Atkins, an educator turned arts philanthropist. The second, the much-admired and innovative Bloch Building by Steven Holl in 2007, introduced a luminous presence: large glass sculptures that descend the expansive hilltop site in a series of “lenses”.
Now the museum is embarking on a third evolution in response to rising and increasingly diverse attendance and a rapidly growing city. The capital campaign associated with this initiative will be the single biggest investment in the arts in Kansas City in recent years (funded by private not public tax dollars) and contribute to the city’s future dynamism and vitality.
The museum aims to become a beacon of inclusivity, creativity and social connections. Strategically, the museum’s Board of Trustees is intent on expanding the conventions of the museum, so it becomes a more dynamic, open and inviting place – a place where everyone feels they belong: a Nelson-Atkins for All.
As Lonnie G. Bunch III, Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution says, “Not a community center, but a center for community”. A place to hang-out as much as an elevated cultural experience, a place that will serve more school children, where people are energized by art, inspired to be creative, and immersed in new experiences.
Highlights of the circa 61,000 sq feet new addition(s) will include a primary entrance and welcome foyer, a comprehensive photography center, new featured exhibition galleries, learning and engagement spaces for hands-on art activities, a black box-style theater for digital art and immersive programming, and a restaurant for indoor/outdoor dining and events.
Also contained within the competition scope is the repurposing, reconfiguration and renovation of circa 74,000 sq feet of the existing museum space, and activating and amplifying the outdoor spaces, all framed within a thoughtful sustainability strategy. The estimated construction budget is $160 million – $170 million.
Like the museum’s earlier icons, this new space needs to be of world class architectural quality and intensely of its time. The Nelson-Atkins desires a building that is both physically and metaphorically transparent. A place that attracts and intrigues passersby with its interior energy, making them want to join and belong in a way they may not have felt or experienced previously. The winning design should reveal the museum’s inner workings to the public, improve connectivity and flow indoors and out, and create highly animated and fluid spaces that integrate into the life of the city.
納爾遜-阿特金斯藝術博物館位於密蘇裡州堪薩斯城，收藏有超過 42,000 件藝術品，以其豐富的亞洲藝術、歐洲和美洲繪畫、攝影、現代雕塑、非洲、美洲原住民和藝術品而聞名。埃及畫廊。

博物館向所有人免費開放，並由私人資助，在國內外享有盛譽，服務於方圓 300 英里的廣大地區。

很少有博物館擁有兩個標誌性建築。這裡的第一個建築是一座原創布雜藝術紀念碑，由堪薩斯城之星創始人兼公民領袖威廉·羅克希爾·尼爾森(William Rockhill Nelson) 和教育家轉型為藝術慈善家的瑪麗·麥卡菲·阿特金斯(Mary McAfee Atkins) 的富有遠見的遺產資助。第二座建築是史蒂文霍爾(Steven Holl) 於2007 年設計的備受推崇且富有創意的布洛赫大廈(Bloch Building)，它引入了一種發光的存在：大型玻璃雕塑以一系列“透鏡”的形式從廣闊的山頂場地下降。

現在，博物館正在著手第三次變革，以應對不斷增加和日益多樣化的參觀人數以及快速發展的城市。與此舉措相關的資本活動將是堪薩斯城近年來最大的藝術投資（由私人而非公共稅收資助），並為該城市未來的活力和活力做出貢獻。

博物館旨在成為包容性、創造力和社會聯繫的燈塔。從戰略上講，博物館董事會致力於擴大博物館的慣例，使其成為一個更有活力、開放和吸引人的地方——一個讓每個人都有歸屬感的地方：所有人的納爾遜·阿特金斯。

正如史密森學會秘書朗尼·G·邦奇三世 (Lonnie G. Bunch III) 所說：「不是社區中心，而是社區中心」。一個可以閒逛的地方，也是一個提昇文化體驗的地方，一個可以為更多學童提供服務的地方，在這裡，人們受到藝術的激勵，激發創造力，並沉浸在新的體驗中。

佔地約61,000 平方英尺的新增設施的亮點將包括一個主入口和迎賓門廳、一個綜合攝影中心、新的特色展覽館、用於實踐藝術活動的學習和參與空間、一個用於數位化的黑匣子式劇院。

競賽範圍還包括對約 74,000 平方英尺的現有博物館空間進行重新利用、重新配置和翻新，以及激活和擴大室外空間，所有這些都以深思熟慮的可持續發展戰略為框架。預計建設預算為1.6億至1.7億美元。

與博物館早期的標誌一樣，這個新空間需要具有世界一流的建築品質和強烈的時代感。納爾遜-阿特金斯家族希望建築在物理和隱喻上都是透明的。一個以其內在能量吸引和激發路人興趣的地方，讓他們想要以一種他們以前從未感受或經歷過的方式加入並歸屬。獲勝的設計應該向公眾展示博物館的內部運作，改善室內外的連結性和流動性，並創造高度活躍和流動的空間，融入城市生活。

團隊
The competition warmly welcomes US, international, emerging and established studios.
The museum is seeking an integrated multi-disciplinary design team (led by an architect) capable of providing the full range of professional input and services for the project, and including:
Lead Design Architect
Landscape Architect
Engineering disciplines, including structural, services and sustainability
Heritage advisor, if central to the team’s approach
Teams may include additional consultants deemed necessary to the design approach if required.
At stage two, teams may propose additional consultants to enhance their design concept including:
Exhibition Designer
Lighting Designer
Catering Specialist
Access Consultant
Please note: An Owner’s Representative for cost consultancy and project management services related to this project will be procured separately by the client and do not form part of this procurement process. Competitors will be expected to independently validate their cost assumptions at the second stage.
While the competition is open to all architects, including those registered in the State of Missouri, the role of the Architect of Record (AoR)/state-registered Executive Architect will be decided upon later in the process. The museum will determine the requirements for the AoR once the winning team is selected and will carry out a separate selection process for local firms. The museum is, therefore, expressly discouraging contact with potential firms for this role during the competition process.
該競賽熱烈歡迎美國、國際、新興和成熟的工作室。

博物館正在尋找一個綜合的多學科設計團隊（由建築師領導），能夠為該項目提供全方位的專業投入和服務，包括：

首席設計建築師
景觀設計師
工程學科，包括結構、服務和永續性
遺產顧問（如果是團隊方法的核心）
如果需要，團隊可以包括設計方法所需的額外顧問。

在第二階段，團隊可能會提議額外的顧問來增強他們的設計理念，包括：

展覽設計師
燈光設計師
餐飲專家
無障礙顧問
請注意：與該專案相關的成本諮詢和專案管理服務的業主代表將由客戶單獨採購，不構成本採購流程的一部分。預計競爭對手將在第二階段獨立驗證其成本假設。

雖然競賽對所有建築師開放，包括在密蘇裡州註冊的建築師，但記錄建築師（AoR）/州註冊執行建築師的角色將在稍後的過程中決定。一旦獲勝團隊選定，博物館將確定 AoR 的要求，並對當地企業進行單獨的篩選過程。因此，博物館明確不鼓勵在競爭過程中與潛在的公司接觸。

The first stage of the competition is an open call for submissions – a Request for Qualifications – including proposed team composition, relevant experience, company details, and an initial reaction to the project aims and objectives. No design submission will be required at stage one.
All submissions will be reviewed by the Nelson-Atkins and their advisors, including MRC. All competitors (successful and unsuccessful) will be notified of the outcome of the first stage.
競賽的第一階段是公開徵集作品——資格要求——包括擬議的團隊組成、相關經驗、公司詳細資訊以及對專案目的和目標的初步反應。第一階段不需要提交設計。

所有提交的內容都將由 Nelson-Atkins 及其顧問（包括 MRC）進行審查。所有參賽者（成功和失敗）都將收到第一階段的結果通知。

第二階段
A shortlist of up to five teams will be selected to compete at stage two and prepare concept designs. These finalists will receive a detailed program and will be invited to attend a site visit and briefing workshop. A virtual design workshop will be held halfway through the design period. All finalists will participate in a site visit December 11–13, 2024, that includes public engagement sessions as part of the competition design process.
The stage two submission requirements are anticipated to include presentation boards, a design portfolio, a technical proposal (including an area schedule and scaled drawings), a physical model, a video presentation, and a commercial proposal.
An exhibition of the finalist concept designs will be held at the museum and the schemes will also be available to view online, giving the community an opportunity to view the submissions and give their feedback.
Competitors will present to the Architect Selection Committee, who will interview each team and recommend a winner to the Board for final approval.
