大中央公园：南京紫金山玄武湖新综合总体规划

KCAP与一个多学科团队合作，赢得了南京两个先前分离的公园的新综合总体规划的竞争。紫金山和玄武湖。该竞赛由南京市规划和自然资源局及其他市政当局组织，旨在推出一个多层次的总体规划，将历史地标和南京的生态核心结合起来，被称为新的南京大中央公园。

Rotterdam, Shanghai, July 1st 2021 - KCAP, in cooperation with a multidisciplinary team, has won the competition for a new comprehensive masterplan for two previously separated parks in Nanjing: Zijin Mountain and Xuanwu Lake. The competition, organized by Nanjing Municipal Planning and Natural Resources Bureau and other municipal authorities, aims to launch a multilayered masterplan that unites both historical landmarks, and the ecological core of Nanjing, referred to as the new Grand Central Park Nanjing.

南京曾是多个朝代的首都，是中国四大古都之一，拥有丰富的文化和历史。紫金山和玄武湖位于南京的核心区域，以被列为世界遗产的帝王陵园和中国最重要的帝王花园而闻名。然而，它们的地位和象征意义已经从古代的郊区地标变成了现在的中央公共公园。在密集的全球城市背景下，这种罕见的高生态质量区需要一个战略性的身份发展。考虑到南京的文化、自然和社会重要性，由KCAP领导的多学科设计团队提出了 "大中央公园"这一紫金山和玄武湖的新品牌。它被设想为一个绿色的心脏，一个活的博物馆，以及一个文化景观的基准，以展示生态与城市、自然与人类、过去与未来的共生关系。

Once the capital of multiple dynasties, Nanjing is one of China’s Four Great Ancient Capitals with rich culture and history. Situated at the core area of Nanjing, Zijin Mountain and XuanWu Lake are famous for the listed World Heritage imperial cemeteries, and the most significant imperial garden in China. However, their status and symbolism have changed from being ancient suburban landmarks to central public parks nowadays. Such rare high-eco quality districts in dense global city contexts need a strategic identity development. With respect to its culture, nature, and social importance for Nanjing, the multidisciplinary design team led by KCAP proposes with ‘Grand Central Park’ a new brand for Zijin Mountain and XuanWu Lake. It is conceived as a green heart, a living museum, and as a cultural landscape benchmark to showcase the symbiosis of ecology and city, nature and humankind, past and future.

获奖的设计超越了设计概要中所要求的传统景观规划。相反，它提供了一个包括文化特征和生态功能的互补性景观总体规划。正如评委会所说：“该项目不仅非常重视设计区域内对场地的感知，还将生态调查和分析的范围扩大到更大的范围，以了解和解释场地。利用大数据来分析文化和历史元素，该方案成功地对生态和文化资源有了清晰而坚实的理解。因此，它已经形成了对生态优先的有力支持，并减少了对生态区的干预。”

The winning design goes beyond a traditional scenic plan as required in the design brief. Instead, it offers a complementary landscape masterplan including cultural characteristics and ecological functions. As the jury states: ‘The project not only placed great importance on the perception of the site within the design area but also expanded the scope of the ecological investigation and analysis to a larger scale to understand and interpret the site. Using big data to analyze the cultural and historical elements, the proposal managed to have a clear and solid understanding of the ecological and cultural resources. Thus it has formed a strong support on prioritizing ecology and reduce intervention within the ecozone.’

大中央公园总体规划涵盖了从更广泛的生态和水系统到建筑的所有规模，反映了生态和文化，并为五个确定的主要系统提出了五个战略：一个总体的生态系统；健康的水环境；作为历史故事讲述者的文化地图；融合城市和公园的新界面，重新调整城市的中心位置；以及灵活和充满活力的流动性。

The Grand Central Park masterplan covers all scales from wider ecological and water system to architecture, reflecting on ecology and culture and comes up with five strategies for five defined main systems: an overarching eco-system; healthy water environment; cultural mapping as the storyteller of the history; a new interface merging city and park and recalibrating the centralities of the city; and flexible and vibrant mobility.
