中国馆屋顶花园,九洲清晏,上海,中国

China Pavilion Roof Garden,Jiuzhou Qingyan,Shanghai,China,2010

我曾担任2010年上海世博会中国馆屋顶花园的设计和施工技术顾问。这是世界上最大的一个绿色屋顶,它源于圆明园的遗址九州清晏。花园中排列着8座小岛,每座都象征着中国神话中的九州之一,而第9座岛就是中国馆本身。2009年4月,在最初的设计推敲过程中画了两张草图,标志着设计深化的两个关键时期。

I was design and construction technology consultant for the roof garden of the China Pavilion Roof Garden at the 2010Shanghai Expo, one of the largest green roofs in the world. The garden is based on a ruined garden, Jiuzhou, from the Old Summer Palace in Beijing. Eight islands are arrayed across the garden with each island representing one of the territories in the founding saga of China, diuzhou, or Nine Continents. ＂lhe ninth island of the garden is the China Pavilion itself. These two sketches were made in April 2009 during the initial design investigation and represent the two key moments of design clarity around which the design team and Expo officials were able to coalesce.
