馬拉霍夫斯基大樓是赫伯特·韋特海姆工程學院、醫學院以及藥學院中以數據和人工智能為核心的教學與研究項目的中心樞紐。在這里，來自佛羅里達大學這些學院以及其他學院的教職員工和學生共同合作，利用數據分析和人工智能來改善健康狀況；設計下一代機器人、無人駕駛車輛和通信系統；并確保人工智能的使用符合道德和公平原則。這座獲得 LEED 白金認證的項目特意選址在靠近雷茲學生會的顯眼位置，旨在吸引廣泛的校園參與和探索。

Malachowsky Hall is the central hub for data- and AI-focused academic and research programs from the Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering, the College of Medicine, and the College of Pharmacy. Here, faculty and students from these and other colleges at the University of Florida work together to use data analytics and AI to improve health; engineer the next generation of robotics, unmanned vehicles, and communication systems; and ensure AI is used ethically and equitably. Intentionally positioned at a prominent location near the Reitz student union, the LEED Platinum project welcomes broad campus engagement and exploration.

這座建筑的外立面采用了 1500 塊定制金屬板單元進行覆蓋，這與校園內普遍使用的磚塊材料形成了鮮明對比。這些預制金屬板有助于實現預算和可持續發展目標，同時營造出隨著一天中光線變化而變化的極具沖擊力的外觀。典型的雨水防護板模塊為 6 英尺乘 7.5 英尺的折疊鋁板，是一種單一的獨特幾何形狀，通過旋轉和鏡像處理來形成動態的表達效果。

The building's exterior, clad in 1,500 custom metal panel units, is a marked departure from the predominant use of brick throughout campus. The prefabricated panels helped achieve budget and sustainability goals, while creating a striking presence that changes with shifting light throughout the day. The typical rainscreen panel module, a 6' x 7.5' folded aluminum sheet, is a single unique geometry that is rotated and mirrored to create a dynamic expression.

工廠預制的面板有助于按時完成任務，并能實現更嚴格的質量控制。預制幕墻內的窗戶形狀采用了電致變色玻璃，這種玻璃會根據太陽的照射路徑進行變色，使每個單元都能減少對使用者的眩光影響。該項目所有的玻璃，包括電致變色窗戶，都采用了防鳥碎玻璃花紋。

Shop-manufactured panels aided in meeting an ambitious schedule and allowed for greater quality control. Window shapes within the panelized facade contain electrochromic glazing, which responds to the path of the sun, tinting each unit to mitigate glare for occupants. All glazing on the project, including the electrochromic windows, features a bird-safe frit pattern.

空間規劃的目標包括：為集中工作和團隊協作提供區域；在各個部門以及整個建筑內實現靈活性；普及采光和視野的使用；通過創造自發交流的機會來減少部門之間的隔閡。盡管某些部門的工作需要一定的隱私空間，但設計團隊還是制定了鼓勵跨學科思想交流和研究的策略。

Space-planning goals included providing areas for focused and group work; flexibility within departments and throughout the building; democratizing access to daylight and views; and reducing siloing by creating opportunities for spontaneous interaction. Although privacy was necessary for some departmental work, the design team developed strategies for encouraging cross-pollination of ideas and research across fields of study.

一個光線充足的中央公共區域將各個部門連接起來，并貫穿了整棟建筑的各個樓層。每一層都被劃分為一系列“學術社區”，其中包括聚會空間、辦公室、會議室、創客空間以及各部門的總部。這種多樣性促進了來自不同研究實驗室的學生之間的交流，并為不同的工作方式提供了靈活性。

A light-filled central commons connects departments and opens all levels of the building. Each floor is broken into a series of "academic villages" with spaces to gather, offices and meeting rooms, makerspaces, and departmental headquarters. This variety promotes interaction between students from different research laboratories and provides flexibility for different working styles.

在馬拉霍夫斯基大樓里，學生和教職員工能夠享受到許多在單一場所中難以見到的環境設施，比如高架層的機器人實驗室、專門用于網絡安全和人工智能的制作空間，以及可輕松調整布局的教室。鑒于工作內容的多樣性以及技術發展的快速變化，研究實驗室的設計就像制作空間一樣，允許使用者根據需求、技術以及人員的變化來定制其環境。

At Malachowsky Hall, students and faculty have access to an array of environments seldom found under one roof, including a high-bay robotics lab, dedicated makerspaces for cybersecurity and AI, and easily reconfigurable classrooms. Given the diversity of work and the rapid pace at which technology evolves, research labs were designed like makerspaces, allowing users to customize their environment as needs, technology, and personnel change.

針對在持續進行的科學研究中對透明度和隱私的相互沖突的需求，大多數研究場所都設在公共區域，既保持可見性以展示其活動中心的地位，同時又因研究內容的敏感性而保持一定的隔離度。一個可容納 300 人的禮堂和一個可容納 150 人的多功能廳為大學在馬拉科夫斯基大樓內舉辦各種規模的活動和講座提供了新的空間。

Responding to the competing desires for transparency and privacy in ongoing scientific research, most are positioned around the commons, visible as hubs of activity while maintaining separation for the sensitive nature of the work. A 300-seat auditorium and 150-person multipurpose forum provide new capacity for the University to host events and lectures of varied scales within Malachowsky Hall.
