In order to illustrate how the ingenuity and innovation of contemporary architecture is enabling scientists to live and work in one of the most extreme environments on our planet, the British Council has commissioned curators from the Arts Catalyst to launch a new international touring exhibition titled Ice Lab: New Architecture and Science in Antarctica.
为了演示当代建筑中的新颖设计和创新使科学家能够在这个星球上最极端的环境之一中生活和工作，英国文化协会委托Arts Catalyst 的策展人推出一个名为冰实验室的国际巡回展 新南极建筑与科学。

The first exhibition of its kind, Ice Lab will include architectural drawings, models, photographs, and films allowing for visitors to not only examine the architecture, but the life of these scientists in these research facilities. The Glasgow-based artist will create this work in collaboration with ‘We Made That’, the exhibition’s designers.
第一次展览，冰实验室将展示建筑图纸，模型，照片和电影，让游客不仅查看建筑而且包括科学家们在这些研究设施的生活。格拉斯哥的艺术家将与展会设计团队“We Made That” 协作，共同创建这次展览。

The exhibition will debut at Architecture and Design Scotland, The Lighthouse in Glasgow from 26 July to 2 October 2013 before touring to Manchester Museum of Science & Industry (21 October – 6 January) and then internationally.
展览将于2013年7月26日至2十月2013在国际建筑和设计苏格兰的格拉斯哥灯塔。首次亮相前参观曼彻斯特科学与工业博物馆（10月21日至1月6日），

 
特色项目有：

             British Antarctic Survey's Halley VI:
The first fully relocatable polar research station in the world became fully operational in February 2013 and signals a new dawn for 21st Century polar research.This new state of the art facility, designed by Hugh Broughton Architectsand engineered by AECOM (UK) fulfills the UK's ambition to remain at the forefront of scientific endeavor.Located 10,000 miles from the UK on a floating ice shelf, the new station is designed to be self-sufficient, able to withstand freezing winter temperatures of minus 55ºC, have minimal impact on Antarctica's pristine environment, and be an aesthetically stimulating place to live and work.
世界第一个完全可重定位极地研究站，在2013年2月开始全面运作，标志着21世纪的极地研究新的黎明。这个先进的设施是由休·布劳建筑师设计，并由AECOM（英国）建造，帮助英国位于科学事业前沿。新站位于英国万英里外浮动冰架上，自给自足，能够承受冻结冬季气温零下55ºç，对南极洲环境影响极小，同时从美学上促进生活和工作。

             Princess Elisabeth Antarctic:
Conceived, designed, constructed and operated by the International Polar Foundation (Belgium), Princess Elisabeth is Antarctica’s first zero-emission station. Perched on a nunatuk, 200km from the coast, at an altitude of 1400m, the aerodynamic stainless steel structure can withstand strong Antarctic wind, and is layered so that no form of interior heating is needed.The station seamlessly integrates renewable wind and solar energy, water treatment facilities, passive building technologies and a smart grid for maximizing energy efficiency.
此项目由国际极地基金会（比利时）构思，设计，建造和运营，是南极洲的首个零排放站。栖息在离海岸200公里一个冰原岛峰，海拔1400米，气动不锈钢结构能承受强大的南极风，因为分层所以任何形式的室内采暖都不需要。该站的无缝结合利用可再生风能和太阳能，水处理设施，被动式建筑技术，以及使能源效率最大化智能电网。

             Bharati Research Station:
India’s third Antarctic research station by bof Architekten / IMS (Germany) is a striking modernist structure made from 134 prefabricated shipping containers. Wrapped in a special aluminum case its extensive glazing offers magnificent panoramic views whilst withstanding powerful winds, below 40 degree Celsius temperatures, blizzards and unfathomable loads.
印度第三个南极科考站，由bof Architekten / IMS（德国）设计，是一个由134预制海运集装箱组成的现代主义建筑。被特殊的铝合金外壳包裹，巨大的玻璃幕墙提供了壮丽的全景，同时可承受强风，低于40摄氏度的温度，以及暴风雪和其他难测的荷载。 

             Jang Bogo:
Jang Bogo, by Space Group (South Korea), will be one of the largest year-round bases on the continent when it opens in 2014. The station’s aerodynamic triple-arm design will provide resistance to the elements and accommodate up to 60 personnel during the busy summer season.
Jang BOGO由航天集团（韩国）设计，在2014年开始使用后将成为最大的全年基地之一。该站的空气动力学设计将提供各种抗逆性，并且在夏季最多可容纳60名人员。

             Iceberg Living Station:
A speculative design by MAP Architects (Denmark) for a future research station made entirely from ice, Iceberg Living Station negates the need to transport foreign materials to Antarctica. The station will be holed out of a large iceberg, using caterpillar excavators. It will eventually melt, resolving the issue of removing it at the end of its life course.
由MAP建筑事务所（丹麦）设计的完全由冰，冰山组成的今后的研究站，该生活站抹杀了向南极运输材料的需要。该站将使用履带式挖掘机挖一座巨大的冰山。它最终会融化，解决拆除的问题。
