【文章內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介】 through the public gardens. The landscape, inspired by Roberto Burle Marx39。 gardens in Brazil contains restaurants and cafes in vegetated mounds bracketed with pools and walkways. At night a walk through this landscape of flowering tropical plants will mix the smell of jasmine with the colorful glow of the undersides of the structure floating above. As a tropical, sustainable 21st century vision the building and the landscape integrate several new sustainable aspects. The Vanke Headquarter wing of the floating horizontal skyscraper is aimed at LEED Platinum. The Vanke Center is a tsunamiproof 21st century hovering architecture that creates a porous microclimate of freed landscape.Holl is continuing to explore these ideas in another megaproject, this time on the outskirts of Shenzhen: a zigzagshaped plex propped up on big steel columns that make room for a dreamy public garden. Nicolai Ouroussoff, The New York Times T MagazineThe design for the Vanke Headquarters takes care to use renewable and recyclable materials. All the doors, floors and furniture are made from bamboo, which is easily available in the area and quickly renewable, and the carpets throughout the building are made from pletely recycled material. Special windows are designed to keep the building cool by blocking solar heat while still allowing plenty of sunlight, lowering the cost of air conditioning. In addition, the Vanke Headquarters39。 roof is covered by solar panels, which will provide up to 15 percent of the office39。s electricity. And, in preparation for the future, the building provides electric car parking and charging stations. I think we design for the future。 we cannot design for the past, Li says. A good building always provides opportunities for the future.Marcus Schulz, China Daily39。Amidst the galloping land privatisation in the outskirts of Chinese cities, the programme is built above the ground level, and by doing so the private lot bees a public park. The project reconsiders the traditional concept of the isolated corporate campus and breaks away from the usual distribution of uses in different volumes, typical in these types of minicities. Here, one single container promotes interaction of uses and users with its semipublic indoor walk that connects the different programmes.39。a+t39。A horizontal megastructure, lifted to a variable height of nine to fourteen metres off the ground, will stretch over an invented landscape designed as Holl himself states like a scribble39。.Rita Capezzuto, Domus 898, December, 2006AWARDSAIA NY ARCHITECTURE HONOR AWARD, USA, 2010GOOD DESIGN IS GOOD BUSINESS CHINA AWARD, BEST GREEN PROJECT, USA, 2010成都復(fù)合建筑群PROGRAM: five towers with offices, serviced apartments, retail, a hotel, cafes, and restaurantsCLIENT: CapitaLand DevelopmentBUILDING AREA (SQUARE): 3,336,812STATUS: construction phaseThe 39。Sliced Porosity Block39。 will be located just south of the intersection of the First Ring Road and Ren Min Nan Road. Its sun sliced geometry results from minimum daylight exposures to the surrounding urban fabric prescribed by code. Porous and inviting from every side, five vertical entrances cut through a layer of microurban shopping before leading to the elevated public 39。Three Valley39。 plaza. A great urban terrace on the scale of Rockefeller Center, this multilevel plaza in the center of the plex is sculpted by stone steps, ramps, trees, and ponds and caters to special events or to a casual afternoon in the sun. Here the public space parallax of overlapping geometries in strict black and white is supercharged by color that glows from the shops positioned underneath the plaza.The three generous ponds on the plaza are inspired by a poem by Du Fu (713770), in which he describes how 39。Time has left stranded in Three Valleys39。. (Du Fu was one of ancient China39。s most important poets, who spent a part of his life in Chengdu). These three ponds function as skylights to the sixstory shopping precinct below. Residing on voids in the facades of the sculpted blocks three pavilions are designed by Steven Holl (history pavilion), Lebbeus Woods (high tech pavilion), and Ai Wei Wei (Du Fu pavilion). The 39。Sliced Porosity Block39。 is heated and cooled geothermally and the large plaza ponds harvest recycled rainwater while the natural grasses and lily pads create a natural cooling effect. Highperformance glazing, energyefficient equipment and the use of regional materials are just a few of the other methods employed to reach the LEED gold rating.
