普利斯设计集团住宅及社区商业景观设计：万科公园大道

项目概况

万科公园大道

中国杭州

客户：万科地产

万科公园大道位于飞速发展的杭州城东新城，距离杭州火车东站仅2公里，交通便捷；紧邻草庄公园，生态环境优美。项目名灵感来源于纽约公园大道（Park Avenue）。纽约公园大道紧邻中央车站与中央公园；而万科公园大道则临近杭州火车东站和草庄公园。该项目的景观由普利斯设计集团设计，包括住宅社区与社区内商业街两部分。住宅社区多园路、植栽——幽静蜿蜒的园路搭配绿植，花园感强烈。社区内商业街风格简约，以中心广场的八角水景作为景观焦点，典雅端正，带有新古典主义气息，配合沿街绿植吸引着人们在此驻足停留。

该项目设计时恰逢江浙一带首次推出关于消防场地硬化处理的新规。消防场地主要为登高消防车服务，硬质铺装从承压力等各方面方便了消防车辆的通行与登高，更好的保障了住户的生命安全。当然，消防场地的硬化处理也给景观设计者带来了一些挑战，普利斯设计集团的设计师在确保充足、达标的硬质消防操作场地的情况下，将消防流线与景观构架综合考量，对消防用地进行美化处理，既保证了居民可用的公共空间也从构架上提升了景观效果。

经过美化处理的硬质消防场地，平时可作为户外休憩平台供住户在此休闲聊天；

消防通道经划分，在保证车辆正常通行的同时开辟出一条橡胶跑道，既提高了场地利用率，也增加了场地的功能性；

在不影响正常通行的前提下，将消防车道设计为弧形，尽可能从视觉上软化硬质道路景观，也使得场地形态显得更为灵活。

此外，在铺装上设计师巧用材料的肌理变化，对居民的动线进行引导，同时也划分界定了各空间并赋予其功能性。

道路上的材质分割使得空间更加灵活，蜿蜒的园路更加幽深；

石质园路与橡胶跑道、木质休憩区域材质分离，界定了空间的功能属性；

花岗岩、水洗石、木质材料的综合搭配使用，于细节处体现匠心。

万科公园大道项目是我们第一次对消防场地做全硬化铺装处理。为了改善消防场地硬质景观的视觉效果，并提高消防场地利用率，我们在设计初期便将消防流线改造与景观空间布局综合考量，有效地从构架上提升了景观效果，从而能在满足消防硬化，保障消防空间的同时，增加其作为住户活动空间和健身跑道的功能性，达到一举多得的效果。当然首次尝试有得有失，在后期的设计作品中，我们不断总结经验、吸取教训，对消防场地的处理也更加精细与专业。

 Project Overview 

Park Avenue

Hangzhou, China

Client: Vanke Real Estate

Place Design Group was engaged to provide Landscape Architectural services for both the residential community and the commercial street of Vanke Park Avenue. It is nestled closely by the adjoining Caozhuang Park and East Hangzhou Railway Station. The project name Park Avenue is inspired by the famous Park Avenue of New York due to sharing of similar surrounds. The design of the community is based upon multi garden wayfinding paths and luxurious plantings. A neoclassical octagonal water feature decorated with plantings along the street, acts as a focal point in the relatively concise style commercial street.

During the design period, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province released a new Fire Code which requires a hardened safety zone within the residential area to allow for better operation of ladder fire trucks in the unlikely event of a fire, thus strongly ensuring the life of residents. However, the requirement for a large scale hardened pavement also brought some design challenges for the team. Taking the emergency service and landscape arrangement into comprehensive consideration, our designers visually 'softened' the area, satisfying the new code requirement and creating a usable and visually appealing space for residents. 

The area serves as both a gathering and recreation point in non-emergency period.

Rubber jogging track is constructed along the firefighting access.

Curved wayfinding and gardens adds a variety of visual appeal.

All the above treatments do not affect the passage of fire trucks. 

Furthermore, the elaborately combined paving materials guide the walking route and define the different functions of the space. Various paving materials create more flexible spaces; winding paths visually deepen the garden. 

Stone garden paths, rubber tracks and a wooden recreational area - different materials for different space functions.

Combination of the use of granite, washed stones and wooden materials shows designers' ingenuity.

Vanke Park Avenue was Place Design Group’s first project under the new Fire Code, and thus the first zone to have such requirements for expansive hardened pavement. To visually improve the landscape effect and functionally take full advantage of these areas, the team, at the beginning stage, considered the firefighting access and the landscape arrangement into a whole. Thus, the design ensures that the new firefighting regulation is fully respected while the outdoor recreational spaces and jogging track are designed to create and provide more activity opportunities to the residents. The experiences we gained within this project will assist us to create further professional design on firefighting access in the future.
