小田里·环湖生活坊丨中国无锡丨AF.d奥凡设计

奥凡设计：序言 Preamble

环湖生活坊是我们与小田里故事的第三幕，于 2023 年 6 月建成，距今刚好一年。在这个充满生命力的自然艺术空间里，我们在人工几何秩序与自然有机无序中建立对比与融合，秉承对景观完整生命周期的探索，在时间纬度中见证小田里的自然生长。

奥凡一直坚持景观是与自然与环境对话，在时光中穿梭，感受自然，带来四季更替之美。过去的一年，历经酷暑、秋瑟、冬雪，再到今年阳春，一个完整的生长周期后，垒石墙更斑驳了、石头缝里的生命痕迹增加了、植物经过时间的锤炼也更有表现力了……

Aofan Landcape: The Huanhu Life Square is the third act of our story with Odari, which was completed in June 2023, just one year ago. In this vibrant natural art space, we establish a contrast and fusion between artificial geometric order and natural organic disorder, adhering to the exploration of the complete lifecycle of the landscape, and witnessing the natural growth of Oda in the time dimension. Aofan has always insisted that landscape is a dialogue with nature and the environment, traveling through time, experiencing nature, and bringing the beauty of changing seasons. In the past year, after experiencing a complete growth cycle from scorching summer, autumn, and winter snow to this year’s spring, the stone walls have become more mottled, the life marks in the cracks of the stones have increased, and the plants have become more expressive after being tempered over time.

启幕 Open the stage curtain

“太湖畔、龙山下、王城旁，田野中”。小田里是一处最具代表性的自然与人文共同刻画出来的江南村落。“湖、谷、村、田”是小田里的内核，环湖生活坊作为小田里的代表之作，这里有着关于琴棋书画茶的艺术展及独立艺术家工作室，因此，属于她的故事应该是一场关于“江南风雅集”的探讨。

On the side of the Taihu Lake, at the foot of Longshan Mountain and beside Wangcheng, in the fields, “Xiaotian is the most representative village in the south of the Yangtze River portrayed by both nature and humanity.” Lake, valley, village and field “are the core of Xiaotian. As the representative work of Xiaotian, the Living House around the Lake has an art exhibition on music, chess, calligraphy, painting and tea and an independent artist studio. Therefore, her story should be a discussion about” Jiangnan elegance collection “.

穿林 Through the forest

入口现状为以香樟为主的杂林，多次走场和清理后发现这些香樟形成了天然的障景和“林门”的效果，我们当即决定在此基础上增补部分香樟，重塑地形，形成更完整和富有变化的樟林效果，以达到先穿林再入园的空间节奏变化。

The current entrance is a mixed forest mainly composed of camphor trees. After multiple walks and cleanups, we found that these camphor trees have formed a natural barrier and “forest gate” effect. We immediately decided to add some camphor trees on this basis, reshape the terrain, and create a more complete and varied camphor forest effect, in order to achieve a spatial rhythm change of first crossing the forest and then entering the park.

入画 Picturesque

穿过香樟林，天然的石块自由地与草地镶嵌，层峦叠嶂的远山、温暖清透的阳光与天空、灰白调的建筑、婀娜的大树、波光粼粼的湖水，它们相互掩映成趣，一幅天然的江南水墨画就此映入眼帘，豁然开朗。

Passing through the camphor tree forest, natural stones freely blend into the grassland, with towering distant mountains, warm and clear sunlight and sky, gray and white buildings, graceful trees, and sparkling lake water. They complement each other and create a natural Jiangnan ink painting, which suddenly becomes clear.

哲园 Zheyuan

传统印象中的江南是精致秀美和秩序的。在这样充满自然原野生命力的环境中，我们希望有一片具有野性力量美的花园能够与精致的江南梅园产生“对撞与冲突”，进而希望能够引发关于“旷野与秩序”的哲理思考，她可以是关于自然、生活、亦或是其他等等……

The traditional impression of Jiangnan is exquisite, beautiful, and orderly. In such an environment full of natural wilderness vitality, we hope to have a garden with wild power beauty that can collide and conflict with the exquisite Jiangnan plum garden, and then hope to trigger philosophical thinking about “wilderness and order”, which can be about nature, life, or other things, and so on.

柳堤 Liudi

江南何处不垂柳，“烟柳画桥，风帘翠幕，参差十万人家。”春日里的江南，总少不了丝丝垂柳点缀的诗情画意。在江南赏柳，首先赏的是风情。杨柳轻垂，随风摇曳，这是独属于江南的风情，如拂过人间的春风荡漾在心尖。

Where in Jiangnan is not the weeping willows? “Yanliu painted bridges, wind curtains and green curtains, scattered with 100000 households.” In the spring of Jiangnan, there is always a poetic and picturesque atmosphere embellished with a hint of weeping willows. When admiring willows in Jiangnan, the first thing to appreciate is the charm. The willows droop gently and sway with the wind, this is a unique style of Jiangnan, like the spring breeze brushing over the human world rippling in the heart.

望水 Wangshui

“水”做的江南，江南文化都是在水中浸泡出来的文化。自“泰伯奔吴”建勾吴古国以来，这里就是水的故乡。第一次到现场就被镜湖、小岛、远山、王城一隅的原始状态深深吸引。在这样的画面中，任何多余的一笔都会显得累赘，一处平台让人有停望之地，一处林岛让鸟有栖留之所。来往的所有过客都可以成为画中一笔，融于其中。

Jiangnan is made of water, and Jiangnan culture is a culture that is soaked in water. Since the establishment of the ancient state of Gou Wu by “Taibo Benwu”, this has been the hometown of water. The first time I arrived at the scene, I was deeply attracted by the primitive state of Mirror Lake, a small island, a distant mountain, and a corner of the royal city. Any extra stroke in such a scene would appear cumbersome, with a platform providing a place to stop and watch, and a forest island providing a habitat for birds. All passersby can become a stroke in the painting and blend in.

环湖带我们一直强调三个重要的关系，与自然的关系、与时间的关系，与自己的关系。来到这里，我们希望带给人们的是忘记时间的、无我的极致松弛状态，同时又希望在这个场域中感知到时间。在古代，没有时钟、没有手机，人们看四季和一天的变化都是通过观察自然。所以在这里，我们透过新芽感知到春回大地，大量的花开叶翠就进入了盛夏，树叶变红就知道了一叶入秋等等，通过植物的变化让人们把注意力回归到生活和自然本身。

We have always emphasized three important relationships around the lake: with nature, with time, and with ourselves. Coming here, we hope to bring people a state of forgetting time, a state of extreme relaxation without self, and at the same time, we hope to perceive time in this field. In ancient times, there was no clock or mobile phone, and people saw the changes of the four seasons and a day by observing nature. Therefore, here we perceive spring returning to the earth through new sprouts, a large number of flowers blooming and leaves emerald entering summer, and leaves turning red to know a leaf entering autumn, etc. Through the changes in plants, people can return their attention to life and nature itself.

在设计上我们精准控制了草坡的入水坡度，徐徐入水确保在这里不会带来任何的压迫与局促；植物、水与空气创造了柔和与浪漫的力量；石墙、建筑与植物的交相辉映达到了坚硬与柔软的平衡。

In terms of design, we have precisely controlled the slope of the grass slope entering the water, ensuring that it does not cause any compression or discomfort here. Plants, water, and air create a gentle and romantic power. The interplay of stone walls, buildings, and plants achieves a balance of hardness and softness.

田园 Pastoral

“秧苗青青，白鹭飞翔，自由与希望”，小田生活的核心是归田园居，极致的松弛与自然。林语堂先生笔下的院落生活“屋中有园，园中有屋，屋中有院，院中有树，树上见天，天中有月”在这里得到一一呈现，好不惬意。

"The seedlings are green, the egrets are flying, freedom and hope". The core of Xiaotian life is to return to the countryside and live in a relaxed and natural environment. Mr. Lin Yutang’s courtyard life “there is a garden in the house, a house in the garden, a courtyard in the house, and trees in the courtyard. The trees see the sky, and the moon in the sky” is presented here one by one, which is very pleasant.

结语 Conclusion

整个设计落地过程中，其实也面临着不少的挑战与新的尝试。现状地形、水系、泄洪沟以及植物的调研与整理；农业性质用地对于步道的宽度、用材、以及硬景场地极其严格的控制等等条件都在促使我们去尝试新的突破。

关于小田里，我们一直在探讨关于江南的自然景观应该是怎么样的，也一直在追求水墨田园的画面。围绕“湖、谷、村、田”后续一系列的组团如“归田原乡、稻里江南、落樱茶谷”等将陆续的呈现，共同谱写出属于小田里独有的美好生活……

Throughout the entire design implementation process, there are actually many challenges and new attempts to be made. Research and organization of current terrain, water systems, flood discharge ditches, and plants; The strict control of the width, materials, and hard landscape sites of agricultural land is prompting us to try new breakthroughs. We have been exploring what the natural landscape of Jiangnan should look like and have been pursuing the picturesque ink painting of the countryside. A series of clusters around “Lake Valley Village and Field”, such as “Returning to Homeland, Daoli Jiangnan, and Luo Sakura Tea Valley”, will be presented one after another, jointly composing a unique and beautiful life for Oda Village.
