光影花园：Katzenbach 居住花园

Katzenbach 的新住房是苏黎世边缘地区总体转型过程的一部分，以高密度住房取代了旧的“花园发展区”。中央广场的设计语言源自线性方案，线性建筑之间流动的开放空间在两种截然不同的氛围之间交替，“树木庭院”将周围绿地延续，在空旷的地面上高高的落叶乔木之间形成了光与影的空间。交替出现的“花草庭院”位于地下停车场上方，那里只有较少的植被。这些花园以茂密的植物色彩诠释了花园。

The new housing for Katzenbach is part of a general transformation process on the edge of Zurich replacing older “Garden Developments” with high-density housing. The design language of the central plaza grows out of the logic of the overall housing scheme in which open spaces flowing between the linear buildings alternate between two contrasting typologies and atmospheres. The 'Tree Courtyards' continue the larger scale of the surrounding woods set forth with the play of light and shadow among high deciduous trees on an open ground plane. Alternating, the 'Flowering Courtyards' lie above underground parking where only smaller vegetation is possible. These gardens interpret the private gardens in the former Row House typology anew with a dense fill of vegetative colors, forms and textures.

中央广场是一个带有花园凉亭的游乐和会议空间，遵循“树木庭院”的逻辑。在房屋建筑的刚性线条的布置中，以树冠所产生的光影运动为核心元素，营造了光影斑驳的氛围。树叶、垂直树干和地面上的阴影是设计的决定性元素，在时间的变化中产生不同的效果。

The central plaza, a play and meeting space with garden pavilion, follows the logic of the ‚Tree Courtyards’. Within the rigid placement of the housing buildings an ephemeral atmosphere is created using the play of light and shadow created by the canopies of the trees as the central idea. The light roof of leaves, the vertical trunks and the cast shadows upon the ground plane are the determining elements of the design, echoed in variations within the design.

广场的地面抽象地模拟了光线和阴影在树上的投射，引导人们在空间中蜿蜒而行。铺装好的地面呼应了出开阔的天空或视茂密的屋顶。带有花边的树木在各种绿色之间闪闪发光，变成朦胧的色调，一目了然。亭子的深色柱子呼应着树干，在树木之间缠绕着电缆和柱子，构成了另一幅景观。

The ground plane of the plaza abstractly emulates the projection of light and shadow through the trees and animating users to meander through the space. A water plane level with the paving reflects the open sky or leafy roof depending on the location of the viewer. Seating elements dissolve themselves into the language of the voids between leaves. Thepalette of trees with their lacy leaves shimmer between various shades of green into a hazy mixture of tones difficult to grasp at a glance. (Robiniapseudoacacia, Robiniapseudoacacia 'Frisia', Fraxinus excelsior 'Jaspidea' und Pinussylvestris). The tree trunks are echoed in the dark columns of the pavilion and play landscape made up of cables and posts winding between the trees.

各种各样的人群在广场中使用空间，例如攀登景观，沙滩和水面，游戏元素，烧烤空间，秋千以及带有或不带有靠背的巨大座椅元素，供儿童和成人使用

A wide variety of uses for diverse user groups are woven inconspicuously into the plaza such as the climbing landscape, sand and water, play elements, grill space, swings, and enormous seating elements with and without back rests used for groups of children and adults to congregate.
