情感・哲学 |Emotions and philosophy

南京地质公园中的设计思考，我们期望打造一个除了人之外，动物和自然都可以享受的地方，同时利用场地地质遗址的永恒性，期望创造一个心灵平静与精神启发的场所。建筑与景观设计上都强调了这样的策略，在双方协同尊重场地前提下，达成了一个融合自然，景观与建筑的合作。这些努力促成了建筑和景观合谐地融入进周边地景的出色作品。

In the making of Nanjing Geology Park, we set out to create a place where anyone, regardless of human, animal, and the nature, could enjoy, and a landscape with emotionally moving and calming qualities benefitting the timelessness of a geological site. The architect and landscape architect strongly endorse the plan, and through the total and mutual respect for each other, the project has attained the ultimate joy of collaborating for a design considering the existing nature, landscape, and architecture together. These efforts have resulted in a splendid work of architecture and landscape that blends in perfectly with the surrounding nature.

我们将该公园视作一个超越人类需求的现代避难所。它对所有访客友好，同时也是动物、蝴蝶和植物生存的家园。没有任何隶属关系，这是一个可以让所有人都得到休息和沉思的地方。该公园不像过去任何其他的设计，它让建筑和自然达到共存。在达到完美的平衡同时，这也是个既温和又浓烈，既野性又亲密的地方。

We seek the park as a contemporary sanctuary that transcends human needs. Kind to visitors and home to animals, butterflies, and trees. Without any affiliation, this is a place that allows us all to rest and contemplate. The Park is unlikely any other in the past, architectural and natural coexist at the same time. With exquisite balance, it is also a place that is gentle yet strong, wild yet intimate.

公园建成后，为让这个场地能永续的延续，我们认为传递这样的理念是同等重要的。当来自各地的人拜访时，我们希望它成为一个自然之地，并在未来的几代里超越不同和界限，这一理念将像一株老树，持续生长并守护此地。

After the birth of the park, it is our job to cultivate its reason for being as those entrusted with responsibility of raising it. As people from all over the world visits the site, it is our hope that the park will serve as a place of nature, that transcends differences and boundaries for generation to come, and that this philosophy will last like an old tree continue to grow in time to protect the place.

理性・策略 |Rationale and strategy

南京地质公园位于江苏省汤山地区的一个地质遗迹上，北距南京市约 25 公里。公园在一片老树森林中，森林中有着历史悠久过去曾用于矿石开采、输送和储存仓库。公园设计利用切入地面的下沉路径，来展现地层的矿物性与质地，并呼应场地矿产历史。侧墙和下沉小路的设计进一步地使用了当地石材，增强对场地矿石机理的体验，同时编织出森林浸没式的宁静。

The Nanjing Geology Park is located on a geological heritage site in Tangshan area of Jiangsu province. Approximately 25 kilometers north to Nanjing city, the Park is laid out in a mature forest with historical warehouses for stone miming, transporting, and storage in the past. The park utilizes its mineral history by designing paths cutting through the ground to reveal the texture and materiality of the stone. Nevertheless, local stone has been used on the side walls and the sunken paths that provide experiences that amplifies the awareness of the minerality of the site, yet curates the immersive serenity of the forest.
