Ocean Intelligence展览丨意大利丨CRA-Carlo Ratti Associati

国际设计与创新事务所 CRA-Carlo Ratti Associati 与联合国教科文组织政府间海洋学委员会（UNESCO-IOC）合作，共同设计了位于威尼斯圣塞尔沃罗岛（San Servolo）的 SEA BEYOND 海洋素养中心。该中心作为一个以海洋教育为核心的知识枢纽，融合数据科学、可视化技术与叙事表达，旨在推动公众对海洋的理解。该项目是 Prada 集团自 2019 年起与联合国教科文组织政府间海洋学委员会合作发起的 SEA BEYOND 项目的一部分，致力于提升人们对可持续发展与海洋保护的认知。

International design and innovation firm CRA-Carlo Ratti Associati has partnered with UNESCO’s Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) to co-design the SEA BEYOND Ocean Literacy Centre on Venice’s San Servolo island. The Centre leverages data science, data visualization, and storytelling for an educational hub focused on ocean learning, developed in the framework of SEA BEYOND, a project by Prada Group conducted in partnership with UNESCO-IOC since 2019 to raise awareness of sustainability and ocean preservation.

海洋素养中心的参观体验分布于三个彼此由“海洋”联系的空间。该设计灵感源自查尔斯与雷·伊姆斯（Charles and Ray Eames）1977 年的影片《10 的力量》（Powers of Ten）所提出的“尺度”概念，带领访客穿越不同维度的海洋世界——从全球广阔海洋（10⁹ 级别）、再到威尼斯泻湖的微观生物多样性（10⁵ 级别），最终回到圣塞尔沃罗岛上以人为主导的互动体验（10¹ 级别）。中心基于科学研究与数据，阐释个体与集体行为对地球水文循环的影响，强调不同尺度下水生态系统的互联性，并鼓励访客亲身参与、与海洋生态和科学过程进行互动。

The visitor experience unfolds across three rooms connected by the ocean. Inspired by the “Power of 10” concept in Charles and Ray Eames’s 1977 film, this approach takes visitors on a journey through different scales—beginning with the vast global oceans (scale 10^9) narrowing down to the intricate microbial biodiversity of Venice’s lagoon (scale 10^5) and finally user-led interactions on San Servolo Island (scale 10^1). Informed by scientific research and data, the Ocean Literacy Centre conveys the individual and collective impact on Earth’s hydrological cycles, highlighting the interconnectedness of all aquatic ecosystems across scales. It invites visitors to interact directly with marine ecosystems and aquatic scientific processes.

每个展厅都由多媒体设计机构 Dotdotdot 合作打造，展示数据驱动的叙事如何将“水”作为一种资源与生命体系加以理解与学习。第一个展厅将海洋洋流与水温变化的数据投影至水池形展台上，这些展台被设计为世界地图，以海洋为中心，展现其整体性与关联性。第二个展厅则将水池展台转化为互动实验台，访客可以在显微镜下观察来自威尼斯泻湖的自然样本，深入探索近邻与远方的海洋环境。第三个展厅通过一款以圣塞尔沃罗岛为模型的“海洋素养地板游戏”完成整个体验，玩家可通过游戏互动解决海洋保护挑战，在轻松氛围中获得学习与启发。

Each room, developed with multimedia design agency Dotdotdot, demonstrates how data-driven storytelling can help learn with water as both a resource and a living system. The first room features data about ocean currents and water temperature fluctuations projected onto water basin tables. The table is shaped as a world map with oceans as the central focus, portraying them as one interconnected whole. The second room turns the water tables into interactive stations where guests can analyze natural samples from the Venetian lagoon and examine them under real microscopes, connecting with nearby and far marine environments. The third room completes the experience, an Ocean Literacy Floor Game modeled after San Servolo island, challenges players to solve marine conservation challenges through playful interactions and learning.

“重新定义人与水的关系，是气候危机时代最紧迫的课题之一，”CRA 创始合伙人、麻省理工学院感知城市实验室主任、同时也是第十九届威尼斯国际建筑双年展策展人 Carlo Ratti 表示，“我们很自豪能与 UNESCO-IOC 合作，在圣塞尔沃罗岛共同推进 SEA BEYOND 海洋素养中心的建设，将环保倡议与数据科学及叙事融合在一起。威尼斯的脆弱性让它成为一座面向未来的实验室——今天困扰威尼斯的问题，明天可能就是全球的问题。”

“Redefining our relationship with water is one of the greatest challenges of the climate crisis,” said Carlo Ratti, Founding Partner of CRA-Carlo Ratti Associati, Director of MIT Senseable City Lab, and Curator of the 19th International Architecture Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia. “We’re proud to collaborate with UNESCO-IOC on the SEA BEYOND Ocean Literacy Centre on the island of San Servolo, merging environmental advocacy with data-driven science and storytelling. Venice, with its fragility, can serve as a laboratory for the future–the challenges facing Venice today will soon be the world’s.”

本项目在材料使用上也采用了特别策略。展厅地面使用破碎的牡蛎壳和贝壳制成，而互动水池则采用封闭式循环净化系统，在不产生浪费的前提下持续回收和净化用水，从而引导访客思考如何保护威尼斯泻湖这一脆弱生态系统。

Special approaches to materials have been used in the project. The interior floors are crafted from crushed oyster shells and seashells. To conserve water, the interactive water tables use a closed-loop filtration system that continuously recycles and purifies water without waste. This inspires visitors to reflect on strategies for preserving the fragile ecosystem of the Venice Lagoon.

该项目延续了 CRA 对教育空间与博物馆设计的持续探索，此前包括与米兰 MEET 数字文化中心和摩德纳 AGO 博物馆的合作。同时，该项目也持续挑战自然、 与人工之间的边界。早在 2019 年米兰设计周，CRA 曾以菌丝体打造出有史以来规模最大的“循环花园”装置。而在 2020 年迪拜世博会上，CRA 与 Italo Rota、Matteo Gatto 及 F&M Ingegneria 合作设计的意大利馆亦被视为推动建筑循环性的“活实验室”，其结构采用了咖啡渣、再生塑料、藻类等非常规材料，充分展示了可持续建造的创新路径。

This project builds on CRA’s ongoing exploration of educational spaces and museum design, including collaborations with the MEET Digital Culture Center in Milan and AGO Modena. It also challenges the boundaries between natural and artificial, as during Milan Design Week 2019, CRA’s Circular Garden installation, the largest structure ever made with mycelium. Similarly, the Italian Pavilion at Expo 2020 Dubai—designed by CRA with Italo Rota, Matteo Gatto, and F&M Ingegneria—served as a “living lab” to advance circularity in architecture. Its construction incorporated unconventional materials such as coffee grounds, recycled plastic, and algae, reinforcing sustainability through innovative material reuse.
