校园失意之所 The Lost Land in Campus

“在树下“坐落于深圳大学城哈尔滨工业大学（深圳）校区的南侧，毗邻T3教学楼与荔园四食堂，处于教学与生活区域的交接地带，人流量密集，可达性强。其周边汇聚了学习、餐饮、居住及运动等多重功能。

在改造之前，场地内有8个机动车泊位。然而，由于周边人流量巨大，此片区一直实行人车分流的交通管理策略，非紧急停车场及周边的道路禁行机动车，整个场地功能闲置，无人问津。

该场地在区位上本应成为连接教学区与生活区的桥梁，但鲜有行人穿梭其中，更无供师生停留或活动的空间。场地临近南校门，入校师生视线不可避免地与场地相交，具有较好的可见性。

“Under the Tree” is located in the south side of Harbin Institute of Technology (Shenzhen) Campus in Shenzhen University City, adjacent to the T3 teaching building and Liyuan Cafeteria iv, in the intersection of teaching and living areas, with dense flow of people brings high accessibility. Multiple functions are gathered here, such as learning, dining, living and sports.

Before renovation, there were 8 motor vehicle parking spaces within the site. However, due to the huge flow of people around the area, this area has been implementing the traffic management: non-emergency parking and the surrounding roads are prohibited for vehicles, the entire site is functionally unused and unattended.

The site should be a bridge connecting the teaching area and the living area, but there are few pedestrians traveling through it, and even less space for teachers and students to stay or hang around. The site is adjacent to the south entrance. Anyone entering the school will immediately see this area which shows why the site is in dire need of renovation.

在树下：校园的庇护 Under the Tree: Shelter on Campus

设计理念 Design Concept

校园师生需要一个与自然和谐共融的社交场所和一处心灵的疗愈花园。于是我们提出了“在树下”的理念。我们希望，“在树下”不仅能成为一个空间，更能升华为一种精神符号和校园的文化标志。它代表着我们对大自然的热爱与敬畏，对生活的热情与期待。在这片花园中，我们团结在一起，共同建构这个理念。

基于这样的设计理念，我们提出了核心的设计策略：搭建树形构筑物，联通场地南北乔木。形成地标并打造一个荫蔽而舒适的环境，最终让师生在此找到心灵的慰藉。

Students and faculty in campus need a place to socialize in harmony with nature and a zen healing garden. So we came up with the idea of “Under the Tree”. We hope that “Under the Tree” will not only become a space, but also be sublimated into a spiritual symbol and a cultural icon of the campus. It represents our love and reverence for nature, and our passion and expectation for life. In this garden, we are united to construct this idea.

Based on this design concept, we propose a core design strategy: to build a tree structure that connects the north and south trees of the site. This creates a landmark and a shaded-comfortable environment where students and faculty can ultimately find solace in their hearts and minds.

场地设计 Functional design of the site

植入入口广场、活力剧场、休闲餐吧、疗愈花园、树形构筑物，通过分区满足校园师生多样化的休憩活动需求。其中入口广场设计考虑人流组织与疏散，融入自然元素，提供休憩空间。活力剧场作为校园文化新地标，将吸引社团举办活动。休闲餐吧依托食堂，为师生提供自然的用餐环境。疗愈花园重构绿地，丰富步行体验，带来疗愈效果。中心的半透明构筑物与原有海枣树相映生辉，旨在为师生打造校园新地标及精神归属地。

南北向顺应北高南低的地势，将场地整合成逐级下落的平台最终连接软质斜坡，以便迅速排除并吸纳地面雨水。东西向拆除食堂一侧的密植毛竹，利用花箱、踏步与座椅，解决花园与食堂间的高差阻隔，将高差转化为拓展与围合空间的机会，塑造灵动、亲人的空间氛围。

Implanting the entrance plaza, vitality theater, leisure bar, healing garden, and tree-shaped structures, it meets the diversified needs of campus teachers and students for recreational activities through zoning. The design of the entrance plaza takes into account the organization and evacuation of pedestrian flow, incorporates natural elements, and provides open space. The Vitality Theater, as a new cultural landmark on campus, will attract clubs to organize activities. The casual dining bar is based on the cafeteria, providing a natural dining environment for teachers and students. The Healing Garden reconfigures the green space to enrich the walking experience and bring healing effects. The translucent structure in the center mirrors the original date palms, aiming to create a new campus landmark and a spiritual place of belonging for students and faculty.

The north-south orientation follows the high north and low south terrain, integrating the site into a descending platform that eventually connects to soft slopes in order to quickly remove and absorb surface rainwater. The east-west direction removes the dense planting of moso bamboo on the side of the cafeteria, and utilizes flower boxes, steps and seats to solve the height difference between the garden and the cafeteria, transforming the height difference into an opportunity to expand and enclose the space, and shaping a dynamic and intimate spatial atmosphere.

构筑物设计 Categorical Design

在课程中，负责构筑物设计指导的曹婷老师给出了“光滑复合双曲面结构”的原型形式，同学们通过参数化设计塑造出了一组有庇护效果的树形结构物。在课程中，同学们不止完成设计，还需要论证构筑物的结构性能，并将其拆分形成可组装的标准化构件。设计同学同时也会参与后期的搭建工作，共同塑造了这组具有标志性的校园地标。作为方案重要标志的光滑复合双曲面结构也从这个意义上彰显着位于高校共建花园“研究-实践”的独特气质。最终方案中该构筑物承担了地标及遮荫的作用，成为设计概念的重点体现。

植物配置 Plant Design

在最大限度保留场地原有植物的基础上，花园打造了供师生放松身心的五感花园。首先对保留植物进行了梳理，围绕植物集中区域设计形成两大主要花境，花境中设置色彩丰富、形式多样的地被与灌木（如金红羽狼尾草、米仔兰、黄金菊等），结合原有的海枣树等高大植物，提供错落有致的场地体验；其次在场地中间部分设计了两个中等大小的花境，这两个花境以气味芬芳、便于触摸为目标，种植非洲茉莉、珍珠狗牙花等植物，使人群在场地中活动时能够与植物产生良好的互动。最后在场地构筑物周边设计了几个小型花境用以消解场地与构筑物之间的边界感，利用了肾蕨、鸢尾等植物，营造柔和、自然的氛围。

Based on maximizing the retention of the original plants on the site, the garden creates a five-sense garden for teachers and students to relax in. First, the retained plants were sorted out and two main flower borders were designed around the concentrated areas of plants, in which colorful and varied ground covers and shrubs (such as golden red feather wolfsbane, mizuna orchids, golden chrysanthemums, etc.) were planted, combined with the original date palms and other tall plants. Secondly, two medium-sized fragrant flower borders were designed in the middle of the site, and planted with African jasmine, pearl dogwood and other plants, so that the public can have a good interaction with the plants as they move around the site. Thirdly, several small flower borders were designed in the middle of the site, and planted with African jasmine, pearl dogwood and other plants, so that the public can have a good interaction with the plants as they move around the site. Finally, several small flower beds were designed around the structures to dissolve the boundary between the site and the structures, using plants such as kidney ferns and irises to create a soft, natural atmosphere.

“共建”花园 Participatory Construction

不同于施工单位全部完成建设的传统建设模式，共建花园强调利益相关方共同参与建设。一系列由师生共同参与的建设活动在这样的理念下展开：在花园的营造过程中，项目策划了种花、“种树”、涂涂路等系列参与式设计建造活动。

种花：校内师生变身园丁，在资深植物设计师的指导下，开展集体园艺活动，花园由此呈现出了多彩的植物景观，同学们也在其中收获技能，疗愈心灵；

“种树”：构筑物在设计中就设计为模块化、易于组装的底座、标准化的杆件、连接件，因此，同学们能轻松参与构筑物的搭建，一起“种”出了这三棵“连荫大树”；

“涂涂路”：为了延展花园空间，塑造具有整体性的休憩与慢行活动场所，同学们在花园壤接的柏油路上延伸花园铺装的肌理进行绘制，将废弃的机动车交通空间转化为公共空间，使得花园影响得以延伸。

师生将诸多建造环节组织为极具吸引力的场所营造活动，汇集全校师生的智慧与力量，塑造具有“共建”特色的街道、装置与植物景观；为了避免花园施工对校园生活的干扰，同学们还将枯燥的围挡精心设计为积极的校园交互界面；为扩大社会影响，同学们带着他们设计的周边文创在“蛇口无车日”登台亮相，分享设计成果，推广共建共治理念。依托公益性设计实践，高校师生逐步走向社会，成为介入城市公共空间的新生设计力量。

In the course, Ms. Ting Cao, the instructor in charge of structure design, gave a prototype form of “Smooth Composite Hyperbolic Structure”, and students shaped a set of tree structures with a shelter effect through parametric design. In the course, students not only complete the design, but also need to demonstrate the structural performance of the structure, and disassemble it into standardized components that can be assembled. The design students are also involved in the post-construction work, together shaping this iconic set of campus landmarks. The smooth composite hyperbolic structure, which is the key symbol of the project, also emphasizes the unique “research-practice” nature of the university’s Co-Construction Garden. In the final scheme, the structure serves as a landmark and shade, and is the focal point of the design concept.

The Co-Creation Garden differs from traditional construction, emphasizing stakeholder participation. Activities like flower planting, “tree planting”, and road painting involved teachers and students. Under guidance, students gained skills while beautifying the garden. Modular designs facilitated student involvement in constructing “shade trees”. By extending garden pavement onto asphalt roads, students transformed abandoned spaces into public ones, enhancing the garden’s impact. Teachers and students collaborated, utilizing school resources to create streets, installations, and plantscapes reflecting “co-construction”. Fences were designed as positive campus interfaces, minimizing disruption. Students shared their designs at “Shekou Car-free Day,” promoting co-construction and governance. This public welfare design practice integrates academia with society, fostering a new design force for urban public spaces.
