模式化景观途径营造低维护海绵城市:泰国曼谷班加科特森林公园

Modular Approach Creating Low-Maintenance Sponge City:Benjakitti Forest Park in Bangkok,Thailand

在泰国曼谷繁华的城市中心地带,设计团队将一个前烟草工厂转变成了一座活力四射的新文化地标——班加科特森林公园。项目之初,设计团队面临场地上洪涝和干旱交替发生、北侧运河水体污染严重、可达性差、建设资金有限、工期紧张(仅18个月)等多重挑战。通过生态修复手段,设计将场地转变为了可提供全面生态系统服务且富有韧性的生态系统:设计后的公园可以拦截瞬时暴雨积洪并降低其破坏力、净化被污染的水体、调节旱涝,以及为野生动物提供亟需的栖息地。班加科特森林公园不仅成为了曼谷市中心及其周边地区最大的公共游憩空间,也为其他类似城市公共绿地设计实践提供了一种可借鉴的低维护、模式化途径。

In the bustling heart of Bangkok,Thailand,the design team transformed a former tobacco factory into a vibrant new cultural landmark—Benjakitti Forest Park.The project faced a number of challenges including seasonal floods and droughts on the site,severe water pollution in the surroundings,poor accessibility,limited construction funds,and a compressed timeframe(only 18 months).The design has restored the site into an urban park with a resilient ecosystem that intercepts and reduces the destructive force of storm water,filters contaminated water,and provides much-needed wildlife habitat.Benjakitti Forest Park has not only become the largest public recreational venue for residents of downtown Bangkok and its environs,but also offers a low-maintenance,modular approach for worldwide urban public green space design practice.
