4 月 28 日，雨花快闪公园在南京紫悦广场正式开放，这是南京首个兼具展览功能的快闪公园。这座迷宫般的公园里布满了季节性植物，不仅为市民提供了一个舒适的休憩和玩耍区域，还为了解南京迷人的本土物种提供了独特的机会。公园将在紫悦广场停留 30 天（宜悦城购物中心 E 门下沉式广场），之后将迁移到另一个地点。

Launched on April 28th in Ziyue Plaza, Nanjing, Yuhua Pop-up Park is the city’s very first pop-up park doubling as an exhibition. Packed with seasonal plants, the maze-like park features not only many comfortable areas for citizens to rest and play but also a unique chance to learn about Nanjing’s fascinating native species. The park will stay at Ziyue Plaza (the sunken plaza near Gate E of Yiyuecheng Shopping Mall) for 30 days, after which it will be relocated to another location.

不仅仅是快闪公园

More than your regular pop-up park

这个快闪项⽬由南京市⾬花台区农业农村局委托。从⼀开始就很明显，它将不仅仅是⼀个普通的快闪公园。客户的愿景是创造⼀个充满活⼒、可探索的空间，让来访者可以更好地了解南京本⼟动植物。于是，我们将研究分成了两个⽅⾯。⼀⽅⾯，我们开始了解南京当地的动植物种类；另⼀⽅⾯，我们开始调研计划的⽅位：⼀个位于安德⻔⼤道右侧，靠近⼭姆会员店超市的⼤⼴场。

This pop-up project was commissioned by Nanjing Yuhuatai Forestry and Agriculture Bureau and from the very beginning it was clear it was going to be much more than a regular pop-up park.

The client’s vision was to create a dynamic, explorable space that could let visitors experience Nanjing native flora and fauna while also learning about it.

So our research branched in two ways: on the one hand we began learning about Nanjing local plants and animals species, and on the other hand we began surveying the planned location: a large square on the right side of Andemen Avenue near Sam’s Club supermarket.

像往常⼀样，我们的研究时间很短，所以在访谈了⼏位路⼈后，我们尝试了⼀种鸟瞰观察⽅法，通过航拍记录了该区域在平时和周末两种情况下，从早到晚⼈们的活动（由我们优秀的苏⾢ BIM 团队支持）。通过仔细研究视频，不仅可以分析⼈流动线，还可以发现⼀些具体的活动：⽐如孩⼦们会在⼤⼴场上互相追逐，但没有其他东西可玩，青少年则会在⼴场上滑旱冰，也会有许多成年⼈坐在附近晒太阳。

As usual, we had a very short time for research, so after casually interviewing a few passersby we experimented with a bird’s-eye observation method using short aerial videos taken every hour from morning to evening (courtesy of our amazing SUYI BIM team) during both weekdays and weekend. Careful study of the footage revealed not only people’s flows, but even specific activities: like kids chasing each other in the large square, not having anything else to play with, or teenagers doing rollerskating and many adults sitting in the sun nearby.

总体而言，访谈和观察得出的结论很明确：这个空旷的大广场亟需更好的设施供孩子们玩耍；为购物的人和照顾孩子的家长提供更好的座位和遮荫；最重要的是，这里缺少一个可以吸引四面八方的人们前来参观的地标，而这就是我们想用高大的隔板将部分空间围合起来的原因。避免对地面的破坏并保持低预算的同时，平衡公民的需求和客户雄心勃勃的要求是不小的挑战。设计经历了几轮调整和完善，最终设计出六边形钢棱柱结构，实现了结构稳定性、可扩展性、模块化和独特的视觉效果。

Overall, the conclusions from both interviews and observation were clear: this large empty square badly needed better facilities for kids to play, better seating and shade for people doing shopping and relatives keeping an eye on kids and, most importantly, something large and visible from afar, a sort of landmark that could attract people from all sides of the road to come and visit. That’s how the idea of enclosing part of the space in tall partitions came up. Balancing citizens’ needs with the client’s ambitious brief while complying with safety regulations, avoiding damage to the ground and keeping the budget low was no small feat and the design went through several rounds of adjustment and refinement ultimately leading to its final hexagonal steel prisms structure, which combines structural stability, scalability and modularity with a unique visual effect.
