第 95 课:陶瓷净水器-1

The Braddock Carnegie Library in Braddock, Pennsylvania, looks like an ancient castle. 布拉道克 · 卡内基图书馆位于宾夕法尼亚州的布拉道克,其外观类似一座城堡。

The bottom floor was once a bathhouse. Today, it houses a workshop for an arts program. 图书馆的底层曾经是一个浴室,如今,它被用作一个艺术项目的工作间。

But the library basement also has another use -- as a studio for making ceramic water filters for the developing world. 但图书馆的地下室还有另外一个用途——一个为发展中国家生产陶瓷净水器的工坊。

Placing it there was the idea of Richard Wukich, an art professor at Slippery Rock University in Pennsylvania. 将这个工坊放在地下室的主意来自 Richard Wukich ,他是宾州滑石大学的一名教授。

One of his former students, Jeffrey Schwarz, helped remake the basement to use for pottery-making classes for the community. 他以前的学生 Jeffrey Schwarz 协助重建了这个地下室,使其能够用于社区制陶课。
