Lead Curator’s Message 主策展人的話

“In bringing various communities together, both in the public and private sector, educational arena and across borders, I hope we can advance a spirit of generosity and dialogue within our region and internationally. We advocate for the positive values of design in the role for shaping a better city and region we live in. Our programme DESIGN TRUST FUTURES STUDIO is a pilot programme to explore and experiment with new ideas, exchanges and ultimately transform the individual and collective notion of how we participate in the production of a city”. 「我們希望能透過連結公、私營機構、教育界別及地域社群，促進慷慨互助的精神，建立地區之間以及國際的對話。我們提倡正面的設計能建立更美好的城市及居住地。信言設計大使的旗艦項目『未．共研社』是一個促進交流、探索和實踐新意念的平台，期望最終能改變個人和大眾參與城市創造的方式。」 Marisa Yiu 姚嘉珊 Co-founder, Executive Director of Design Trust 信言設計大使聯合創辦人及執行總監 4

Design Trust Futures Studio 未．共研社

Design Trust Futures Studio makes visible the processes and positive role of design in the culture of contemporary design and production. The programme stems from a project-studio concept that promotes life-long collaborations through a mentor-mentee programme. Experts from different fields have been contributing to the mentor-mentee teams in the exploration of materials and production, putting forth the positive value of design of public spaces in Hong Kong, the Greater Bay Area and internationally. The 2018/2019 theme for Futures Studio is "PLAY IS FOR THE PEOPLE" which continues to promote the ideas of innovation, leisure and play, creating meaning from the people, for the people with a focus on human factors, ergonomics and physical designs in play. Working with international and Hong Kong-based mentors, together with nine senior mentees continuing from last year, along with eight new mentees, four design teams each with emerging designers of various disciplines have been brought together to examine four sites in Hong Kong. The four pilot sites include: Portland Street Rest Garden, Hamilton Street Rest Garden, Sitting-Out Area under Hill Road Flyover, and Yi Pei Square Playground. With an aim to foster practical and innovative designs for different communities in Hong Kong, the four teams have been working closely with members of the public, district councils, and other stakeholders in both public and private sectors. This project exhibition illustrates the conceptual underpinnings of the teams' work, at times reflecting the voice of the community to the perspectives of the designers' process, demonstrating the complex processes of public design making, yet the exciting potentials of public imagination and the creative will power of the members involved. DTFS has had the opportunity to interface with the newly formed Policy Innovation and Coordination Office. The client of the programme is the Leisure and Cultural Services Department who is in charge of leading the parks revitalisation, and the Architectural Services Department is the works agent, (the architects of record in charge of translating the concepts into reality). With the aim to redefine the design process of creating micro-parks, and how we as citizens, can design together to re-imagine our city and how we play. This pilot programme we hope, can catalyse an even more positive energy to benefit the community, and as such inject a continuing lifelong learning process, where we can take iterative testing and an open mindset to impact our everyday living space here in Hong Kong. I take this opportunity to also express deep gratitude to all team members, partners, sponsors and new friends created along this journey, to allow us to build trust and put design at the forefront of our everyday practice.

「未．共研社」旨在顯現現代設計和生產過程，集中討論前瞻思維，並展示設計如何能為社會和公共空間帶來貢獻。該計劃源於項目工作室的概念，使導師與學員能透過互相學習而實踐終身合作。「未．共研社」由信言設計大使聯合創辦人及執行總監姚嘉珊推動及構思。不同領域的專家將協助導師和設計師學員團隊，探索不同材料的運用，進行製作，展示設計能如何改善香港的公共空間，繼而進一步推廣香港、大灣區以至國際的正面公共空間設計。「未．共研社」2018/2019 年的主題為《眾．樂樂園》，針對推廣創新、閒暇、娛樂的創意思路，以人為本，結合人體工學和實物設計的概念。從人當中找到意義，亦為人創造意義。四個實用而且具趣味性的微型公園，將會在香港四個地方活現出來。公共空間包括：砵蘭街休憇花園、咸美頓街休憩花園、二陂坊遊樂場和山道天橋底休憩處。「未．共研社」計劃強調跨領域合作，以促進香港社區的實用和創新設計為目標。四組設計師團隊將與公眾、區議會、及各公、私營設計機構進行分享及協作。是次展覽將展示設計團隊的概念，而當地社區對設計的迴響亦反映在其中。展覽呈現的公共空間設計過程並不簡單，但蘊含豐富的公眾想像以及參與人士的創意。「未．共研社」獲機會與眾多夥伴一同推動設計，並從中學習、挑戰難題、取得啟發。我們有幸與以下機構組織合作：政府的政策創新與統籌辦事處；康樂及文化事務署；以及建築署，使各個以社區為本的精彩設計得以實現。此先導計劃旨在重新定義微型公園的設計過程，以及其在未來發展的可能性，並探討我們作為市民可如何透過共同參與設計，從而重新想像「眾樂」的概念。我們希望此計劃能為社區衍生更多正能量，鼓勵大眾終身學習，透過反復試驗和抱持開放的思考態度，進一步改善香港的生活空間。在此，我深深感謝所有設計成員、合作夥伴與贊助者的支持，讓我們在過程中得以建立彼此信任，實踐設計並將其融於日常生活之中。

"We have Green Plot Ratio, which is the ratio of garden to the site area, Community Plot Ratio, and Civic Generosity Index, something that measures how nice a citizen your building is. Ultimately if every project produced its own food, energy and water, then our cities wouldn't be such a blight on the surface of the Earth." 「我們有綠色容積率，即綠色空間面積和選址面積的比例、社區地積比率、和公民慷慨指數，這可以衡量你的建築裡的公民質素有多好。最終，如果每個項目都能產生自己的食物、能源和水，那麼我們的城市就不會成為導致地球生病的源頭。」 - Richard Hassell, International Workshop Mentor 工作坊國際導師 15

Fabrication Workshop 研製工作坊 What makes a playground inclusive? Design Trust Futures Studio mentees spent the afternoon at a children’s playground in Ap Lei Chau, reliving their younger days as they brainstormed ways to design an inclusive park. "What we call inclusive play is not just about the physical environment," said Advisor Chris Yuen, of Playright Children’s Play Association. Following an afternoon exploring the idea of play and inclusiveness, Design Trust Futures Studio mentees visited Advisor and local contemporary visual artist Kacey Wong’s studio, where he shared his thoughts on design, and Advisor Maggie Lin prepared the teams for public engagement through a mindfulness practice which cultivated openness and creativity.

Following the four teams’ presentations, Marisa Yiu moderated a wide-ranging open discussion involving all guest critics, who commented specifically on each of the four designs and highlighted overarching questions for all mentees to consider as they continue to fine-tune their concepts. How can we design a space for different user groups? How do you retain existing users while bringing in new groups? How can design enhance and improve, rather than impose? The event ended with constructive feedback and ideas for the teams’ future park designs in the context of its neighbouring parks around the districts.

International Mentor Workshop 國際導師工作坊 A thought-provoking workshop with Mentor Mimi Hoang empowered the designer mentee teams to challenge the notion of rules and regulations, as well as the materiality of their designs. It raised the importance of individuality and identity of space while benefiting the local community at the same time. The teams were prompted to explore the journey of experience inside a park, to design creative, innovative and inclusive parks and playable open spaces that are fun and socially engaging. The evening ended with our advisors and guest critics sharing their knowledge and expertise through focused consultations to the teams, and highlighting the potential of appropriate foliage and textures for the sites. The discussions focused specific design features of each team and how they would proceed to tackle the existing challenges and how to embrace and turn these constraints into opportunities.

New York Research Study Tour

New York

The research and study tour consists of a range of site visits, studio tours and workshops, during which the four design teams also shared and presented their micro-parks projects under this year’s theme of "Play is for the people" at The Architectural League of New York. The designer mentees visited Bryant Park and other public spaces with non-profit organisation Project for Public Spaces (PPS). Through research studies and analyses, Manhattan public spaces have transformed from being crime-infested in the 1980s to cross-generational, multi-functional, and dynamic spaces that facilitate social life for all walks of life. Bryant Park, a privately managed public space, is now known as Manhattan’s Town Square. A number of other public spaces, parks and playgrounds were visited, including Imagination Playground by David Rockwell, Water Lab at Pier 6, Brooklyn Bridge Park, Paley Park by landscape architectural firm Zion Breen Richardson Associates, and Domino Park by James Corner Field Operations. One of the highlights was the High Line, by Diller Scofidio + Renfro, James Corner Field Operations, and Piet Oudolf. Leading the tour, Matthew Johnson (Principal, Diller Scofidio + Renfro, and Lead Designer of the High Line) traced the transformation of the High Line in relation to its surrounding neighbourhood of subcultures, its night scene and meatpackers of the district. As a co-creator of the citywide public engagement project The Mile Long Opera, Matthew also shared with us the experience 26

of bringing together 1,000 singers for free performances on the High Line, reflecting the rapid changes in urban theatre and the crisscrossing between public and private life. The team made several other key visits to studios and institutions of architecture and graphic design. Amongst these were Pentagram, the world’s largest independent design studio, where they met co-founding partner Michael Bierut. The mentees also visited Storefront for Art and Architecture, which was founded in 1982 by Kyong Park as a space to exhibit innovative ideas by architects, artists and curators alike. The space’s façade – designed by architect Steven Holl and artist Vito Acconci – has blurred the division between public and private spaces, and challenged the current built environment and urban design of the city. The DTFS crew also visited A /D/O design space and nARCHITECTS, where Mimi Hoang (Co-founding Principal of nARCHITECTS, and an Adjunct Assistant Professor at the Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation at Columbia University) shared her most recent projects, and explored with the team the latest innovations in design. On Friday, 7th September 2018, the team presented their micro-parks projects at The Architectural League of New York (ALNY). Under this year’s theme of "Play is for the people", conceptual designs by the four teams were presented to the designer, architect and placemaking community of New York including Paul Lewis (President, ALNY; Co-founding Principal, LTL Architects),

Rosalie Genevro (Executive Director, ALNY), Anne Rieselbach (Program Director, ALNY), Calvin Tsao (Board Member, ALNY; Co-founder, Tsao & McKown Architects), Benjamin Prosky (Executive Director, AIA NYC), and Rosamund Fletcher (Deputy Director, Design Trust NYC).

The research tour ended on an inspiring note, with visits to the Guggenheim Museum designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, MoMA and its collection of modern and contemporary art, architecture, and design, as well as the Whitney Museum of American Art and its 20th- and 21st- century collection.

ENTRANCE

Design Trust is pleased to present "PLAY IS FOR THE PEOPLE", an exhibition reflecting on the creative processes and collective design for four distinct locations across Hong Kong. Working closely with the local communities and other stakeholders from both private and public sectors, the design teams translated their findings from site research and analysis, as well as various public engagement sessions into unique concepts for four micro-parks. Going beyond conceptual ideation, the aim is to transform the micro-park designs into reality after the exhibition. Exhibiting at Warehouses on West in Sai Ying Pun from 17th to 29th January 2019, "PLAY IS FOR THE PEOPLE" will showcase the outcomes of the critical design phase, as well as 1:1 prototypes and scaled models for the

public to envision the future micro-parks and design concepts. A series of programmes, talks and workshops will be open to public during the exhibition period. 信言設計大使於本年度隆重呈獻旗艦計劃「未．共研社」之《眾．樂樂園》展覽，展出為香港四個不同地點所設計的創新公共空間方案及其設計過程。在過去的一年，四個項目的設計團隊與當地社區和公私營機構的持份者緊密合作，成功將實地研究成果以及與公眾之討論轉化為四個獨特微型公園的設計概念。是次展覽將跨越構思的階段，所展出的微型公園設計概念將於審批後實現。展覽將於 2019 年 1 月 17 日至 29 日期間於西營盤

Warehouses on West 舉行，展示四個微型公園的關鍵設計成果，並以 1:1 原形及比例模型向公眾展示未來公園的設計理念。同時，展覽期間亦會舉行一系列的講座及研討會開放予公眾參與。

A brief history of playgrounds in Hong Kong Fan Lok Yi

It was not until the end of 1920s that Hong Kong started to build its own children’s playgrounds, to provide a safe place for children to play, and to reduce juvenile crimes. Street children were a common sight in the early 20th century Hong Kong, when the city was plagued by widespread poverty. In 1928, Kowloon Residents’ Association met Ts'o Seen Wan, a member of the Sanitary Board of Hong Kong Government, and proposed the construction of playgrounds for children. In the following year, the Government constructed the earliest playgrounds in Tsim Sha Tsui and Hong Kong Island. Built using donations and managed by charities, these venues were the result of collaboration between the Government and the civil society.

The Shek Kip Mei Fire in 1953 prompted the Government to take the housing problem seriously. A large number of resettlement estates and low cost rental housing estates began to spring up all over the city. These public housing estates did not only provide a place to live, but also playgrounds for children to develop their minds and bodies. Together with parks, public housing estates have always been an important source of children’s playgrounds in Hong Kong. Unfortunately, whether in parks or housing estates, playgrounds in Hong Kong are mostly just an assemblage of safety-matted floors and off-the-shelf equipment. Most of the equipment, often imported from Europe or North America, is designed to be played in a certain way. Loose parts like building blocks, as well as natural elements like sand and water, are missing from our

playgrounds. Despite the dissatisfactory situation today, there had been a number of more remarkable designs in the 90 years of Hong Kong’s playground history. In the 1960s, Paul Selinger, a North American artist working in Hong Kong, approached the Government with a plan to design a sculpture playground for children to nurture their imagination. The proposal was accepted, and the playground was built next to Shek Lei Estate with a donation from the Jockey Club. Other parks built afterwards, such as Sheung Shing Street Park (opened in late 1979), King’s Park Children’s Playground (1989), Mouse Island Children’s Playground (2004) are all unique designs made possible by cross-sector collaborations between the government and the civil society. The new inclusive playground in Tuen Mun Park represents another breakthrough — the

playground is a concerted effort by NGOs, professional organizations, government departments, and the district council, following open competitions and community engagement workshops. These moments of innovation in the history of Hong Kong playgrounds are undoubtedly inspiring, but how do we sustain this spirit of innovation, create playgrounds for all ages and abilities, and elevate them to meaningful social spaces? How to create favourable conditions for good design by innovating policies and planning processes? Can older designs with considerable merits be respectfully conserved and revitalized? These, are the areas that all stakeholders related to playground design and building need to explore for future playgrounds.

淺談香港遊樂場 90 年樊樂怡

香港在 1920 年代末才開始建造兒童遊樂場，為兒童提供安全的遊戲場所，減少青少年罪行。20 世紀初，社會整體較貧困，兒童經常在街頭流連。1928 年，九龍居民協會向香港潔淨局代表曹善允提出建設兒童遊樂場的請求，翌年政府在尖沙咀和港島建成最早的遊樂場。這些早期的場地倚靠慈善機構捐款興建及管理，可說是官民合作的成果。 1953 年石硤尾大火促使政府正視房屋問題，開始大量興建徙置區和廉租屋。這些公共屋邨不但為市民提供容身之所，還配置有兒童遊樂場，照顧兒童身心需要。除了公園之外，公共屋邨一直是本港主要的兒童遊樂場地來源。

‘Saddle Mates’, manufactured by GameTime Inc., used to be some of the most popular playground equipment in Hong Kong. 由美國公司 GameTime Inc. 生產的「Saddle Mates」，在香港曾經隨處可見。 5,6 King’s Park Children’s Playground (1989) was jointly redeveloped by Playright and the Urban Council. 京士柏兒童遊樂場由智樂兒童遊樂協會和市政局合作建成。

1960 年代，一位名為 Paul Selinger、當時在香港生活的美國藝術家，自告奮勇要求政府讓他設計一個雕塑遊樂場，讓兒童有一個可培養想像力的地方。政府接納提議。遊樂場在賽馬會捐助下得以在石籬邨附近落成，並於 1969 年開幕。常盛街公園遊樂場 (1979 年 )、京士柏兒童遊樂場 (1989 年 )、老鼠洲兒童遊樂場 (2004 年 )，均是創新的佳作，而且往往是由不同機構或界別合作所促成。即將開幕的屯門公園共融遊樂場，更是由多個慈善機構、專業組織、政府部門、區議會通力合作，經過公開比賽及社區工作坊等過程，才得以實現。回顧過去，會發現本港遊樂場歷史上不乏振奮人心的創新時刻。如何承繼這種創新精神，創造出不同年齡和能力的人都樂於使用的遊樂場，令其昇華成

The city in the eye of the beholder 我們眼中的城市 Yaşar Adanali

We will only start to make our cities more socially just when we shift our perspectives on them radically. The hegemonic way of looking at cities assumes a uniform urban experience, and defines norms of urban planning and design, dominating the city this way. Despite the fact that there is a growing critique on this exclusive and reductionist view on cities from the perspectives of feminism, environmentalism, human rights, and so on, still we rebuild our cities according to this ideal of norm and uniformity. The aim of creating an exclusive norm goes back to ancient history; take for instance the search for the perfect body in art or highly formalized characteristics in the architecture of Ancient Greece. The Athenian City State was not only spatially exclusive; citizenship was defined excluding women, minors, slaves, immigrants. In the city and the body, an unattainable perfection was demanded. This hegemonic perspective on the body and the city has continued to shape the modern urban planning and architecture, informed by the "ideal human proportions," depicted repeatedly in history, from the Renaissance period by Leonardo’s Vitruvian Man, to the 20th century modernism by Neufert’s Modular Man. Once an ideal is defined for human beings, by standardizing and normalizing a particular perspective, lack of fulfilment 40

of that ideal becomes a deviation from the norm, hence "special case", such as disability, requiring "special measures" in design to deal with. This perspective is not only illusionary since body and space / humans and cities are much more complex than what they are assumed as, but also exclusionary as a practice; thus ethically and functionally problematic. A new documentary by the Center for Spatial Justice in Istanbul adjusts this perspective to a height of 95cm, and considers this Mega City’s Mini Citizens. By shifting the perspective to 95cm, the approximate height of a 3 years old child, we already start looking at the city beyond and above the perspective of uniformity. The shift of gaze obviously is a search for, and an act of empathy. Yet, it is not aimed towards the formulation of actor-specific spaces such as playgrounds or kindergartens, but emphasises a multiplicity of perspectives and beings, and calls for more diverse and democratic design practice. Because, the shift is followed by the acknowledgement of the agency of "the other". It challenges planners and designers to be more open in their practice and calls the city officials to take responsibility. In cities of multi-lane highways, high-rise towers, unaffordable houses, constant constructions, and mega projects, this is a humble way to start asking, for whom are our cities for?

眼界調整至 95 厘米，即約 3 歲小孩的身高，我們已能跳出規範，以另類眼光凝視都市。這種眼界改變，顯然代表著尋求同理心，並且是將心比己的表現。然而，其目標並非為創造如遊樂場或幼稚園等特殊使用者空間，而是要突顯觀點和人類的多元性，從而提倡更多樣化和民主的設計方式。這種觀點上的改變，將使人承認他者的存在和需要，驅使規劃師和設計師採取更開放的設計做法，並要求城市官員承擔責任。在充斥多車道高速公路、高樓大廈、昂貴房屋、漫無止境的建築工程、大型建設項目的都市，我們或許可以此一問為引玉之磚：我們的都市為誰而建？

Inclusive play space: Setting a model for future playgrounds in Hong Kong Chris Yuen, Playright

Whats is Play and Playground? Play is an essential component of child development. Children’s play takes place whenever and wherever opportunities arise. Playground is a site such as park, reserve, small block of land or land adjoining other recreational or community-based facilities, specially designated for play and including playground equipment. Playgrounds in Hong Kong can be found in public open spaces managed by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD), as well as non-LCSD venues that are mainly outdoor facilities in public housing estates provided by the Hong Kong Housing Authority. At the end of April 2017, the authority managed 179 housing estates, of which only 30 (17 percent) included swings. LCSD currently manages 640 leisure venues with outdoor children’s playgrounds. In December 2017, the Research Office of the Legislative Council of Hong Kong issued a publication on "Public Playgrounds in Hong Kong" that revealed that the public playgrounds compared unfavorably with those in other places in the region like Singapore or Taiwan. The publication further included critiques by children’s rights groups and suggested elements of successful playground designs.

Why are Inclusive Play and Playground Important? Inclusive play means that all children and youth can play with each other or alone as they wish, in a rich environment that supports their play needs. Inclusive playgrounds are places where children with and without disabilities or impairments can play together. Playright recognized the need to raise public awareness about inclusive play in public playgrounds. This stemmed from a 2009 research study that indicated a low awareness of inclusive play. Additionally, a mother publicly expressed the difficulties she faced when accompanying her child with special needs to a playground.

Government Officials Accepted “Inclusive Play” after Participation and Participation Helped Designers Make Children’s Viewpoints a Priority Playright organized "Playright UNICEF Inclusive Play Project" (The Project) between 2012-2016, which concluded in 2018 with the opening of the first inclusive playground in Tuen Mun Park. Advocacy began in 2012 and after two years of work with the community through inclusive playground education, a playground users’ needs survey, universally designed outdoor play environments training, and the UNICEF Inclusive Play Space Design Ideas Competition, the Project to create inclusive play environments for all children in Hong Kong was established. The Leisure and Cultural Services Department and Architectural Services Department reviewed the entries from professional designers and design students and selected a design to be implemented for a pilot playground project in the Tuen Mun district. The Project was successful in raising public awareness of the importance of providing adequately stimulating playgrounds in general, as well as inclusive playgrounds in particular. This four-year project exceeded

the original goal of raising community awareness, resulting in a sustainable impact on the development of inclusive play space in Hong Kong. This was timely as the design of public playgrounds in Hong Kong has been increasingly discussed in the community as well as reported by the media. Consequently, the Project generated attention and curiosity among different stakeholders in its early phases, gave opportunities for learning at many levels and finally succeeded in its aim to create an inclusive play space created by multiple parties, thereby setting an example for similar spaces throughout Hong Kong in the future. Through the work of the project, the group of play advocates and long-term partners has not only grown, increasing the chance to create more inclusive playgrounds in the community, but future play space designs are more likely to make children’s needs and viewpoints a priority. 2018 saw the opening of the first inclusive play space with children’s participation in Hong Kong. The 2018 DTFS Programme signifies a step forward from micro-park design concept to implementation, bringing about real change for local communities. It has been a real challenge, but an invaluable nurturing process for every social designer.

How to turn a place around: The case of Bryant Park, New York

This text is an excerpt from the book, "How to Turn a Place Around by Project for Public Spaces."

Project for Public Spaces

The story of Bryant Park’s turnaround doesn’t begin and end with its 1988 redesign. That was just one step in a longer story of great management. Even though this iconic park in midtown Manhattan has been widely recognized as one of the best public space renewal projects of the last three decades, the park’s programming and management are constantly being reviewed and refined. The story of Bryant Park offers key lessons about how to turn a place around, and how to make sure it remains vital over time. The celebrated 1980s restoration project was guided by close observation of how the space was being used and misused, inspiring multiple mid-course corrections. For example, the original horticultural specifications for the park’s great lawn required a level of expertise and materials that made it impossible for the park’s managers to execute. After considerable experimentation, a soil-and-seed mix and maintenance regime were developed that would accommodate the park’s intense use and keep the lawn dry enough for users to sit on. While public space managers are generally inclined to keep tight control of their properties — tending to say "no" more than "yes" to potential outside users — the revival of Bryant Park arose from the management’s flexibility in allowing outside programmers 46

access to the park. This resulted not only in a range of interesting events at the park, but also a major source of earned income. The park’s management has become very involved in helping third-party presenters solve problems that threaten their events. Today, it is difficult for people to imagine what Bryant Park was once like. In the early 1980s, it was overrun with drug dealers and other frightening activity. Its dingy appearance, unkempt hedges concealing activity within the park, and lack of activities inviting visitors gave the place a decidedly "unsafe" feel. Few of the many office employees and tourists who walked by each day ever ventured inside the park. In 1980, PPS was brought in to help understand the problems of the space, to study how it was used, and to distinguish the reality from perceptions of Bryant Park while developing design and activity recommendations. To do this, we "mapped" the location of all activities — both positive and negative — and interviewed people using the park. Most revealing was the fact that negative activities like drug dealing occurred primarily near the park entrances, which were close to high levels of foot traffic but also shielded from view. There was little for people to do except sit in the shade on benches beside the small number of other park visitors. While actual

crime statistics for the park were, in fact, very low, the perception of crime was high. Interviews showed that people working in nearby office buildings felt threatened by the drug dealers and were afraid to use the park.

perennial beds, scores of elaborately planted containers, and a signature two-acre lawn. New lighting, both in the park and from a nearby rooftop, heightens the sense of security at night.

Our recommendations for the park included opening up entrances, improving access, developing new uses for the space to displace negative activities, and removing shrubbery that prevented people from seeing into the park. Two food kiosks were installed at the main entrance, and hundreds of movable bistro chairs were scattered throughout the park, enabling people to sit wherever they wanted and adapt the seating arrangements, depending upon weather conditions and the number of people they are with.

A restaurant and outdoor café were built at the rear of the New York Public Library, an area that had been generally empty prior to the restoration. These facilities, financed by the Corporation and operated by a private restaurateur, now provide substantial income for the park’s operations and maintenance. Under an arrangement with the New York City Parks Department, BPC retains all of the income generated by concessions and other activities in the park. Additional revenuegenerating activity includes a sponsored free skating rink and a holiday market, both of which attract activity at night during the winter — a time when, in the past, no one would be found in the park.

The Bryant Park Corporation (BPC), a management entity supported in part by a business improvement district, began early on to put on a wide range of events, like daily lunchtime performances. An outdoor movie series attracted thousands of users to the park at night — something previously unthinkable. The Corporation also organised a number of new activities, beginning with chess and pétanque, then adding ping pong, an outdoor reading room, and a small carousel. Essential to the park’s success were ambitious flower plantings, including two beautifully designed and well-maintained

The park is now embraced as New York City’s town square. The key to success for Bryant Park was not a redesign of the physical infrastructure alone. The park’s revival was the product of a creative lineup of events and high-profile, high-quality management of the space, which reassures people that it is safe and fun around the clock and in all seasons.

Shades of Banyan 榕樹蔭下 Mark Blackwell

Colour is an integral element in Hong Kong’s urban and natural landscape while its perception is subjective, it is key to orchestrating spatial experiences and directly influences the soul. It’s the inner beauty of invisible design, turning the ordinary into the extraordinary, the past into the present, and the present into possibilities to create inclusive public life which grows continuously in time and space. Along with physical form, spatial articulation, and the expression of materiality, colour is an essential medium through which our landscapes are experienced as a sensory perception – its effects are symbolic and emotional. So, what makes a great vibrant public space? The Danish urbanist, Jan Gehl* neatly summarises his approach as, ‘First life, then spaces, then buildings.’ In other words, as designers, our responsibility is for people and how we live and celebrate life, before developing the spaces and places, and ultimately designing the buildings. When we put people first, we design to reflect the extraordinary melting pot of Hong Kong’s culture towards a new lifestyle as a living system, with healthy living through connections with nature to explore and discover beyond boundaries, where rich and happy memories will be created. The role of colour can contribute to enhanced wellbeing, creating a sense of engagement and enhanced pride in our city.

Hong Kong’s cityscape teaches us how to look and see - the mixture of colour and textures, which reinforces spatial relations with contrasting light, where journeys and destinations come together. The time and angle that the sun touches a space during the day can have a perceived influence on the landscape. Colour influences us psychologically and physiologically, and scientific studies have proven that that human interaction in the urban environment is largely based on the sensory perception of colour. Our landscape weaves sinuous connections through the city and beyond, a series of transitional spaces and destinations framed by buildings where all lines of movement flow together, connected by nature. Together, they culminate in a poetic framework in the urban environment, as a narrative of ever-changing landscape experiences during different times of the day, and across the seasons. We would like people to remember what they have experienced and their emotions in a particular space. It is still a comforting and special thing to know that people can sit with family, friends, or even strangers and that the design enhanced and contributed to that experience.

Urban play spaces for young children 城市中給年幼孩子玩樂的空間 Selva Gürdogan

Early childhood is the period when humans grow up and learn the fastest. Current research shows that 85% of human brain develops within the first 1000 days. In fact, it has been observed that the brains of babies who have been neglected, who have not been talked to or played with enough do not grow to their full potential. While cities can be wonderful places to grow up, they can also pose serious challenges for children. The Bernard van Leer Foundation’s Urban95 initiative seeks to make lasting change in the city landscapes and in the opportunities that shape the crucial first five years of children’s lives. Urban95 works with urban leaders, planners, designers and managers to ask: ‘If you could experience the city from an elevation of 95 cm – the height of a 3-year-old – what would you do differently?’ Play is an important function of public space. However, most urban play spaces are designed without considering the youngest, instead they are designed for children that have already developed their motor skills. Since 2017, Superpool in coordination with the Bernard van Leer Foundation is researching and designing urban play with babies in mind. For designers knowing the ‘user group’ is an important step in starting any design process. What is fascinating with designing 52

for young children is that their body and skills are constantly changing - arguably no other user group is as ready for new challenges! But the seeming modesty of their challenges, such as learning to stand and keep balance or to take a step, should not cause us to underestimate the potential play value of these new skills. Alongside the changes in babies’ bodies, their games also evolve. At first, babies play alone or with the help of their caregivers. As they grow up, they start watching the children around them and playing independently next to them. Later, children start to socialise, they play together games with simple rules and, over time, they move to games with more complex, sometimes self-invented, rules based on competition or co-operation. What is needed then to accommodate younger children and their caregivers in urban play spaces? How can playground design support babies to learn by observation, to challenge their skills, have joyful interactions with their caregivers and even to start early friendships? The research Superpool has done in looking for answers to these questions culminated into a publication: Ideas Guide for Playgrounds for Young Children. Instead of giving definitive answers, the guide provides principles and suggestions that hopes to inspire a multitude of creative ideas.

Everything is a game! Everything a child is learning can turn into a game. Skills such as crawling, standing, and walking learned in the first three years, can inspire many designs in playgrounds for young children.

Urban95 計劃旨在於城市景觀方面，以及對塑造兒童生命首五年這段關鍵時刻的機遇，帶來恆久變化。Urban95 與城市領導者、規劃師、設計師和管理人員合作，探討一個問題：「若你能以 95 厘米身高，即約一個 3 歲小孩的高度，來體驗這個城市，你會改變些什麼？」玩樂是公共空間的重要功能。然而，大多數城市遊樂場所的設計都沒有考慮最年輕的使用者，而是專為已發展動作技能的兒童而設計。自 2017 年起，

Superpool 與 Bernard van Leer 基金會展開合作，研究和設計以嬰兒為對象的城市遊樂設施。對設計師來說，了解「用戶群」是開始任何設計過程

如學會站立、保持平衡或邁出一步，看來並不艱鉅，但我們不應低估這些新技能潛在可遊玩的價值。隨著嬰兒身體變化，他們的遊戲也不斷發展。起初，嬰兒會獨自玩耍或在照顧者的幫助下玩耍。隨著成長，他們會開始觀察身邊的孩子，並在其他孩子身旁獨立玩耍。後來，孩子開始有社交活動，一起玩規則簡單的遊戲，隨著時間發展，他們就轉向規則更複雜、有時是自我發明的、基於競爭或合作的遊戲。那麼城市遊樂場該如何迎合年幼孩子以及照顧者的需要呢？遊樂場設計如何才能鼓勵嬰兒通過觀察學習，挑戰嬰兒的技能，與照顧者進行愉快互動，甚至與他人建立友誼？ Superpool 一直研究這些問題的答案，最終出版了《幼兒遊樂場的創意指南 (Ideas Guide for Playgrounds for

Young Children) 》。指南提供一些原則和建議而非明確的答案，希望激發多元創意。

New kids "in" the block

Project BLOX Copenhagen "Vertical play-structure" designed by Carve. NL, 2016 Realised 2017.

Elger Blitz

For the first time in history, the majority of people live in urban agglomerations, and this percentage is expected to rise up to 70% by 2050. The city is already our natural habitat, and we cannot deny any longer that our kids, and their kids, are more likely to grow up between buildings than between trees in future. This makes playgrounds more important than ever. Less than a century ago, playing was a self-organised outdoor activity. With the increasing urbanisation, welfare, and free-time, playing has become more an age-defined and regulated activity â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to be planned, designed, and organised by experts and/or government. Any type of play, in any type of surrounding, can be natural. "Natural play", is unconditioned play, i.e. non-restrictive and non-directed. A play-space is a secure place where kids can play with light spirits. It is a place to explore and discover, a space that encourages children to practice social, motor and cognitive skills, without preconceived rules. Cities are increasingly focused on transport and infrastructure, which dominate public space by parking spaces in historic towns, highways in new towns connecting offices and shopping malls. Our priorities are formed 54

purely by commercial values rather than by cultural, social, and educational values. Public space is increasingly being exploited by different parties as an important source of income; the limited available space is developed for more housing, hotels and offices. This is an ongoing chain reaction, leaving only little space for the unplanned and the unconventional. How could a different definition of "natural" play be conceived with more cultural, social, and educational values; unconventional, free, and non-directive? Natural play-spaces can be designed, in a safe way with benefits where calculable risks can be learned by toddlers and youngsters, in preparing for a grown-up life in the challenging modern city jungle. Even when it is known that there is no better way of doing so through unsupervised playing in the modern city, children can get in touch with their peers on their own conditions without interference of parents or caretakers. Children's well-being is the true indicator for a liveable and prosperous city life for all. The community will benefit from healthier and smarter kids, and this should be a priority, preparing for the future. Finding new ways of weaving natural play-spaces within its vertical structured living spaces, and making this a policy would make Hong Kong a model for the condensed cities of future.

疑問，這會影響我們孩子的成長方式。我們並非想討論城市是否會很快、或經已成為我們的自然棲息地。但我們不能否認，相比起在樹木間長大，我們的孩子和他們的孩子更有可能在建築物間長大。因此，遊樂場變得日益重要；它是我們失去自然遊樂場所後的非自然代替品。在不到一個世紀前，遊樂這種行為仍然是沒有成年人參與的，因為遊樂是一種自發組織的戶外活動。然而，隨著城市化加劇，以及福利和空閒時間的概念產生，逐漸

古老小鎮的停車場，以及新城市裡連接辦公室和購物中心的高速公路。此外，公共空間漸漸被各方支配和利用作重要的收入來源；有限的可用空間被開發為更多的房屋、酒店和辦公室。這是持續的連鎖效應，繼而只留下少許空間用作規劃以外和非傳統的用途。總括而言，我們大概是光從商業價值，而非文化、社會、教育價值觀等考量進行建設決定。簡單來說，在我們不斷增長、越趨密集的城市景觀中，沒有太多多餘空間可用作遊樂場，因為興建遊樂場意味著投資於不能用經濟效益計算的價值。

Site Analysis & Research 選址研究

Site History 選址歷史 Situated between Sai Ying Pun and Kennedy Town, Shek Tong Tsui was once an area with a small population of granite miners working in the local stone quarry, whom immigrated from Huizhou, a Hakka-speaking province. In 1903, the former British Hong Kong Government relocated the red light district from Sheung Wan to Shek Tong Tsui, the unknown area transformed into epicenter of nightlife and entertainment overnight. In fact the site of this project, the SittingOut Area under Hill Road Flyover, was the epicentre of the buzzing neighbourhood.

After a decade of urbanisation, the quiet and modest area is quickly gentrifying into new and expensive apartments as upscale bars and restaurants. As told by the story from Rouge written by Lilian Lee, "golden age" of the area has a fascinating history of the brothels culture, as well as the unfortunate fire accident of the gasholders that were demolished in the 1960s.

What is "Play"? 「眾樂」的意思？

For the team, “play” bears different conceptual and literal meanings. First, it is a voluntary temporary activity. It can be a detour from the usual routine; it can mean "surreal"; it can also be defined as a mirage. Play can also be a process of familiarisation; as well as a way to transform the surroundings. Play should include different parts of the body and the mind, and involve different senses, as well as an alternative way of thinking and perceiving. 設計團隊認為，「眾樂」的意思具多個層面。首先，它屬短暫和自願活動，讓人可從日常的例行活動中稍作休息 ;「眾樂」也可以是超現實的幻想 ; 另一方面，它可以是認識新事物的過程，亦可以是改變四周環境的方法。「眾樂」應包含身心不同部分，使人運用不同感官知覺，並以另類的方式思考和感應事物。

Design Process 設計過程

The project began with site visits and informal interviews with the community. While acknowledging the existing site constraints, the team transformed these constraints into possibilities and produced sketches, digital models, and worked with various media to facilitate design thinking and collaboration during the conceptual stage. 在起首階段，團隊先進行實地考察，及與社區面談。團隊了解選址當前的限制後，把限制轉化為可能，繼而開始繪畫草圖和數碼模型。構思過程中，採用了多種媒體以助設計思考和合作。

Design Process 設計過程

Play Equipment Research 遊樂設施研究 The team was interested in inclusive play equipment and carried out studies of swings, trampolines, and slides, which challenge users' movement and balance. The team was also interested in other forms of play, such as the use of sand, strings and ropes, which enable the participant to transform their surroundings. Though not necessarily play ‘equipment’ the designers find them equally crucial to the notion of play, which is a way to familiarize, to understand and to connect with the environment. Exploring the verticality of the residual space under the flyover, the design team challenges the idea of height, and explored various climbing installations and play equipment.

設計團隊對具包容性的遊樂設施特別感興趣，因而研究鞦韆、彈網、滑梯這些挑戰使用者的動作與平衡的設施。除此以外，團隊亦對能改變環境的遊玩形式有興趣，例如沙、繩索的運用等。雖然這些不一定屬「設施」的一種，但設計團隊認為其對遊玩的概念非常重要，屬認識新事物的方法，讓使用者理解四周環境並建立連結。探索天橋下剩餘空間的垂直性，設計團隊挑戰高度的概念，並探索各種攀爬設施和遊樂設備。

"If you ask children in Hong Kong what play equipment they prefer, they would draw a tree house - and these are children who have never seen a real tree house." 「如果你問香港的孩子他們喜歡什麼類型的遊樂設施，他們會畫樹屋 - 但這些孩子是從未見過真正樹屋的。」 - Chris Yuen 袁漢昌 , Advisor 顧問

Design Process 設計過程

Public Engagement 公眾參與 Process is an important aspect for the team, and the designers would like to build the park with the community. Weaving is a technique easy to learn and handle for different age groups. With reference to past weaving workshops led by local social service teams, the team would like to invite the public to be part of the design and build process, together to knit and weave various furniture such as seats, mats, and ropes, as building can also be a form playing. The team hopes that through participative play, they can elevate the self-identity and a sense of belonging of the neighbours.

Is your design instagram-able? If not then count me out! There are way too many people in the area nowadays.

I would rather go to other parks in the area!

設計團隊著重過程體驗，希望能與社區一同創建新公園。有見編織是對各年齡層都較為容易學習的創作方法，團隊便向該區社會服務組織過往舉辦的編織工作坊取經，希望邀請公眾一起編織各種家具，如座椅、地墊、繩索等，從而讓公眾參與設計和建立的過程。創造的過程亦是遊玩的一種。團隊希望公眾可透過參與遊玩，提升自我認同及作為居民的歸屬感。

SOA under Hill Road Flyover? Where? Oh! Is that actually a park?

Oh... We have never been to SOA under Hill Road Flyover? Hate the steps and too inconvenient!

Why would I bring my kids there? Too many old man gambling and feels unsafe.

Yi Pei Square Playground 二陂坊遊樂場

Communal Living Room 社區客廳

Mimi Hoang and Team Mimi Hoang 及團隊

Communal Living Room 社區客廳 Due to the densely populated buildings of the surrounding area, Yi Pei Square Playground naturally becomes a gathering space. The activities of the people show a unique sense and feeling of community. For example, the local elderly gathers here every day to talk and to chat; while children and parents pass through after school and often play for a while before going back home. When the design team went to observe the site, it was discovered that most children could only use the elderly facilities to play. According to the survey conducted by the community centers in the district, the number of children at the grassroots level has also increased due to the rising number of "squatters" in the district. This shows that the demand for children's play facilities is urgently needed. The sizes of the "homes" are small and make it impossible to have a living room. Thus, the residents in this area are more eager to have a shared space nearby that acts as a "communal living room", for neighbours to have has the opportunity to interact.

二陂坊因為受到樓宇密集包圍，中間的空地成了聚眾空間，各種人進行的活動形成那裡獨特的社區氣氛。例如，區內外的長者每天都會聚集於此談天說地，小孩和家長在放學後途經此地，也會遊玩一番再回家。現時二坡坊並沒有兒童遊樂設施。設計團隊到現場觀察時，甚至發現大部分兒童只能借老人設施作玩耍之用。根據服務當區的社區中心調查顯示，因該區「劏房」數目增加，基層兒童數目上升，由此可見兒童遊樂設施的需求甚殷。由於劏房面積細小，不可能有客廳，此區居民便更加渴求在居所附近能有共用的連結空間作「社區客廳」的功能，讓鄰里有機會在其中交流。

Site Analysis & Research 選址研究

Yi Pei Square Playground 二陂坊遊樂場 Yi Pei Square is located in Tsuen Wan. It is one out of four of the residential squares in the district. It is approximately 930m² in size, being the biggest site among the four. It is surrounded by mid-rise residential buildings, with several alleyways leading onto Sha Tsui Road and Chuen Lung Street. Within the park perimeter are a few fitness equipment for the elderly along with some benches and trees. Despite the lack of children's play equipment, the playground serves not only the elderly, but also children and families living nearby. Yi Pei Square Playground is divided into three sections starting from the footpath entrance in-between Chuen Lung Street and Chung On Street: 1

The middle section is the longest and most commonly used. Children typically gather at two existing elderly fitness equipment, and elderly usually uses the benches more. Future seating areas, made by two patches of land that are separated and surrounded by an S-shaped Emergency Vehicle Access (EVA) fire exit will continue to retain the two elderly facilities. The proposed design and pattern on the ground offers the possibility of providing games for children.

2 The south side area is mainly used for resting. The stepped-seating area next to the trees can make good use of shade for the users, it can also double act as additional protection for the roots.

102

3 The pedestrian flow in the north area is frequent and therefore more free space remains for different activities. At the end of the north area is a wall that can be used for different activities. Different species of climbing plants can also be included to grow around the wall. 二陂坊遊樂場位於荃灣，面積約 930 平方米，是該區四個公共遊樂場中最大的一個，由四周的中層住宅樓宇圍成一個廣場，其中有幾條小巷通往沙咀道和春龍街。公園內有數張長椅及幾個供長者用的健身設備。雖然這裏並沒有兒童玩樂設施，但是遊樂場仍供鄰近的家庭及小孩玩樂。二陂坊由川龍街及眾安街進入的小徑分成三部分 :

中間部分最長，亦最常用：現有的兩個長者健身設施連安全墊是小童聚集點；長者則多使用兩旁長椅。將來的座椅區域（兩個被「S」形消防通道分隔及包圍的遊樂設施），將保留及重置兩個長者健身設施，並輔以地面圖案，為小童提供遊戲可能。

2 南側區域現為休憩區，建議在樹旁設置層遞式座椅，善用樹蔭，同時保護樹根。 3 北側區域行人流量大，日後將留下更多空間。末端設有一幅攀附植物的透孔矮牆，供不同活動用作佈景或掛架。 Population density of Tsuen Wan District 荃灣區人口密度 ¹

Site Analysis & Research 選址研究

Site History 選址歷史 In the past, Tsuen Wan was initially called 荃灣的古稱為「淺灣」。自清朝康熙初年，已有客 Tsin Wan, meaning "shallow bay". Since the 家移民到淺灣定居，在海灘築圍壆造田。沿海村落 early Qing Dynasty, Hakka immigrants have 名字多與堤壩、水道等有關，正如二陂坊的名字： settled in Tsin Wan and in nearby beaches. 「陂」指山溪小水庫；「坊」為鎮內的小空地或窄道。 The names of coastal villages are mostly 及至 1950 年代，荃灣漸成香港紡織業中心，全港 related to dykes, waterways, etc. Just like 最大的紗廠和染廠也座落於荃灣。此時，二陂坊已 the name of the Yi Pei Square suggests, 建在新填地上。其後，一代又一代移民遷出，單位 "Pei" ( 陂 ) refers to the small reservoir of river 便陸續改成板間房出租。因租金便宜，引來很多福 streams whereas "square" is a small open 建新移民入住。2015 年曾有統計指，二陂坊有逾 space or narrow road in a town. In the 1950s, 八百劏房戶，屬於區內最密集之地。 Tsuen Wan was a flourishing textile industry centre in Hong Kong. The city’s largest yarn mill and dyeing factory was also located in the district. As the area quickly developed, Yi Pei Square was built on new landfill. After immigrants from generation to generation moved out, the industrial units were gradually converted into squatter homes. The low cost of rent soon attracted many new immigrants from Fujian. In 2015, statistics showed that there were more than 800 households in Yi Pei Square, becoming one of the district’s most densely populated areas.

Site Analysis & Research 選址研究

Sub-divided flats and the use of public space in Hong Kong 分間單位和公共空間的使用 The inequality in Hong Kong's housing provision is the most visible in subdivided flats, also known as the cubicle, cage, or coffin houses. In 2016, more than 200,000 people were living in flats obtained by dividing a flat to two up to ten units, each of average 15m². According to the 2016 Census, 92,700 subdivided flats, each on average that cost between HKD 4,500 and HKD 5,116 and sized 1/3 of a flat, accommodated 35% of Hong Kong's population. The demographics of these one person households, are aged between 25 and 44, with an average income of HKD 13,500. The lack of public housing for low income household vs the rapidly increasing private housing prices, and the lack of building laws enforcement has led to this housing condition. While building owners are required to adhere to the Hong Kong Building Ordinance by hiring licensed professionals to perform necessary construction, many of the renovations are carried out without legal building or fire safety standards. This kind of housing transformation leads to safety issues on building use, especially related to electricity, fire escape, and sewage infrastructure; health and comfort issues related to the lack of ventilation and indoor air quality, as well as clean water supply. A recent case study by Grassroots’ Housing Rights Alliance and the University of Hong Kong’s Ronald Coase Centre for Property Rights (2018) on subdivided flats in Kowloon 106

document the issues concerning the health and well-being of occupants, as well as those related to building safety. The research focuses on the 285 of 324 buildings in Kowloon. The output of the research points out that the average building is 55 years old, 1,700 flats were divided to 5,500 units (3.3 on average, but in one case to 10 units), only 20% of the 285 buildings had fire alarm systems, under 25% were equipped with fire extinguishers or fire hoses. In addition, significant issues were reported on the added structural weight on the building based on high occupancy, extremely narrow corridors, lack of clean air due to increased ventilation need based on the limited capacity of the building. The issue of subdivided flats is embedded in the neighborhoods around Kowloon. Many of the buildings surrounding the DTFS 2018/ 2019 micro-parks are composed of subdivided flats, increasing the density of use, and resulting in lack of public space. This makes it more important to provide play spaces for children in the public parks, as well as the reorganization of the parks into multi-functional spaces.

數據，香港共有 92,700 個分間單位，住戶佔全港人口 35%，每月平均租金為 4,500 港元至 5,116 港元，面積佔一個單位的三分之一。居於這些分間單位的一人住戶，年齡介乎 25 至 44 歲，平均每月收入為 13,500 港元。低收入住戶面對公營房屋短缺、私樓房價急劇飆升，加上政府立法監管不足，導致住屋問題嚴峻。儘管香港的《建築物條例》規定業主須聘請合專業資格人士，進行所需的建造工程，許多樓宇翻新工作並不符合法定建築或消防安全條例。這種將單位改建成劏房的做法，屬不當使用建築物，引起連串安全隱憂，尤其是與供電、走火通道、排污設備相關的問題。此外，通風不足、室內空氣惡劣，以及用水供應等問題，使住戶未能有舒適的居住環境，更影響健康。關注基層住屋聯席與香港大學科斯產權研究中心近日合作進行研究，記錄九龍區劏房戶的健康和生活狀況，以及與樓宇安全相關的問題。研究員到訪了九龍區 324 棟樓宇，聚焦當中 285 棟的情況。調查結果指出，這些大廈平均樓齡達 55 年，共 5,500 間劏房劃分自 1,700 個樓宇單位，即平均每個單位間隔出 3.3 間劏房，唯當中有一個單位被分成十間房之多。285 棟劏房大廈中，僅 20% 有火警警報系統；少於 25% 配備滅火筒或消防喉。此外，調查發現，由於劏房大廈居住人數眾多，加重樓宇負荷，影響結構安全；還有其他因單位空間有限而衍生的問題，包括走廊極其狹窄、通風設備不足致空氣混濁等，情況值得關注。

What is "Play"? 「眾樂」的意思 ?

"Play" is very important, and every age needs to "play time" throughout life. In this park, not only do both young and old have the necessary facilities to enjoy the different activities, but also the opportunity for community integration through sharing such facilities. 「眾樂」十分重要。不同年齡層都需有遊玩的生活與時間。在這個公園中，老幼皆有各自所需的遊玩設施，使他們一方面能感受不同的活動樂趣，另一方面可透過共用設施而共處。公園便提供了社區共融的平台。

Design Process 設計過程

One of the biggest limitations faced by the design team is the entire Yi Pei Square site runs through an Emergency Vehicle Access (EVA) fire exit, meaning there is not much room left for other facilities. Therefore, when re-planning the EVA and play facilities, we had to take note of these challenges and strike a balance between various zoning restructure and regulations. The design process also focuses on public participation. Children actively proposed various park design concepts and the team collected feedback and opinions from the local community. In doing so, the local community became an important resource for the team's design with their invaluable input, from play equipment to furniture and other facilities.

設計團隊面對的最大限制與挑戰，是整個二陂坊都屬於消防通道，可以放置設施的空間並不多。因此，他們在重新規劃消防車通道路線及遊樂設施的時候，得注意兩者之間的平衡。設計過程著重市民一起參與，由兒童提出一些公園的設計概念。團隊亦收集街坊意見，了解怎樣的座椅和設施才是最合適，以作為公園設計的重要參考。

"Because it is a built project, the practicality consideration will be a great challenge but it doesn't mean that you cannot work with the challenge or constraints. This is usually where potentials come in, and constraints can become opportunities." 「因為這是一個將會建造的項目，實用性的考慮將是一個巨大的挑戰，但它並是無法應對的挑戰或限制。這通常是潛力的來源，約束也可成為機會。」 - Sara Wong 黃志恆 , Advisor 顧問

The design team has explored various emergency vehicle access routes in order to maximise space to incorporate more facilities for Yi Pei Square Playground. 設計團隊探索了各種消防通道方案，為二陂坊遊樂場爭取更多設施的空間。

Play Equipment Design 遊樂設施設計 When looking at playgrounds around the world, the most important thing is to ensure children can play and explore safely. Colours should be attractive, facilities should be stimulating, so that children can grow up with adventures and stimulating challenges. As such, the actual play equipment does not have to be so complex, but rather leaves more room for children to explore.

環顧世界各地的遊樂場，設計團隊發現遊樂場最重要是能確保兒童可安全地遊玩和探索。在設計方面，顏色應要吸引，設施要具啟發性，讓有冒險的樂趣，在自我挑戰中成長。實際的遊樂設施其實並不用太花巧，有空間讓兒童探索才是最重要。

Public Engagement 公眾參與 The design team collected opinions through three public engagement sessions, and have established connections with neighbours and the local community. The team also distributed questionnaires at Yi Pei Square in order to understand specific needs of the residents. Community workshops were held to allow children to participate in park designs; they drew out the parks they had in mind; designed collective games on the playground floor with simple tapes; and came up with their ideal parks with clay, demonstrating their love of games as well as informing the designers of the public’s own ideas. With some of the park facilities collectively designed as part of an onsite exhibition, the 1:1 prototype as part of the exhibition will also be available for future users to test out.

116

團隊分三次活動收集意見，建立鄰舍關係。既在二陂坊派發問卷，了解居民所需，又舉辦社區工作坊，讓兒童畫出心目中的公園，用膠帶在地上設計集體遊戲，或用泥膠示範在公園愛玩的遊戲，使團隊能具體了解公眾用家的想法，取得設計靈感，投放入公園設計中。最後，部分公園設施將以 1:1 原型模式放在場內展覽，給用家試玩。

Final Design 設計作品 The design aims to use colour to connect the ground of the two squares into a "carpet" for play and to provide fun and challenging children's play facilities. The design also intends to utilise nearby trees for shades and to provide ample seating. The park will be more spacious, open and transparent; vibrant and at the same time natural and comfortable. Children will no longer be limited by space and can play in the "living room" of this community, while other residents simultaneously connect and interact with each other. The process of redesigning the park involves public participation and community engagement. It will also be an extension of service to the community in hopes of connecting it even further.

126

設計建議運用色彩，將二陂坊的地面連貫並變成一塊可供玩樂的「地氈」；在場內提供好玩、富挑戰性的兒童遊樂設施，並在樹蔭及蔭棚下，劃出空間提供充足的座椅，令公園內外的空間更開揚通透，使二陂坊變得更繽紛和更有活力，同時亦是自然舒適的空間。自此，兒童不用再躲在細小的劏房，而是可以到這個社區客廳玩耍；其他居民亦能在此連結交流。公眾參與了公園重新設計的過程，提高了公園的社區參與度。公園日後亦會是社區組織服務的延伸活動地點，達致連結社區的目的。

Yau Tsim Mong District has the highest population density in Hong Kong. The new design hopes to inject new energy to the neighbourhood, and to create positive impact in the local community.

Population density of Yau Tsim Mong District 油尖旺區人口密度 ¹

The major users at Portland Street Rest Garden are mainly adults and elderly, including many longtime residents of the area. Typical routines at the park include resting, smoking, waiting for transport, or reading horse racing newspaper on racing days.

The team’s new design aims at making minimal changes, and at the same time, injecting new energy and improving the environment.

Current changes in the demography and development of the area,includes the construction of a new hotel opposite the park, scheduled for completion in early 2019, which may bring new changes to the surrounding area. The team’s design aims to create a familiar yet innovative space for the community, while enhancing the experience for the current users. Despite the relatively small size of Portland Street Rest Garden, it is an important public space and leisure spot for the community within its high density surrounding. However, due to certain improper user behaviour, especially garbage and debris, as well as defecation and odour within the park perimeter. During peak hours, there are also insufficient seating for park users.

The design will be "partly new", and "partly original", where part of the park's existing structures will remain unchanged, with minimal intervention apart from the restoration of certain furniture and facilities. Thus, keeping part of the garden's original design for longtime users. The other part of the garden will have a playful and modern look,with new paving, furniture, facilities, as well as plant species. The new part will also focus on one single vibrant colour, providing a fresh and energetic touch to the environment, and facilitate positive psychology in the neighbourhood. A series of new, movable, modular table and chairs will also be installed, enabling users to create their own seating and activity arrangements freely. While encouraging different social activities, the new furniture will also provide more freedom and possibilities of usage, such as forums, performances, areas to rest, dine, or play.

目前該地區的人口變化和發展可能會為周圍的氣氛帶來新變化。團隊的設計旨在為社區創造一個既熟悉又創新的環境，同時增強現有使用者的體驗。砵蘭街休憩花園面積雖然不大，但對於附近稠密的居住環境卻是重要的公共空間。由於某些不當的使用習慣，以及一些花園設施未能配合所需，使例如在賽馬日和繁忙時間座位不足，草叢有大小便異味和垃圾，以致該處未能為大眾提供舒適環境。

不同的社交氣氛之餘，亦為花園帶來更多可能性，讓花園可以變成社區論壇空間、表演場地、用餐地和靜態玩樂場所。

The main users of the garden are adult male. By observation, around 90% are male with the majority over 50 years of age. The garden is often crowded, especially on horse racing days, where most seats are occupied, with many users sitting on the curbs, smoking, drinking and gambling. The hygiene condition is also poor with strong odour. Located at a busy location near an MTR exit, a Jockey Club betting station, hotels, and other local shops, restaurants, and bakeries. There is also a cross border shuttle bus station outside of the garden. One of the main concerns for the neighbourhood is the negative image projected by prostitutes around the area. Although Portland Street is well known by locals and tourists as the red light district, this is an everyday issue faced by the local residence. 134

公園主要使用者為成年男性。根據觀察，約 90% 訪客為男性，大多數年逾 50。公園時常擠滿人群，尤其在賽馬日，椅子幾乎全部坐滿。不少訪客坐在路邊抽煙、喝酒及賭博。公園衛生情況惡劣，傳出強烈異味。公園附近人流繁多，有地鐵站、馬會投注站、酒店、以及本地商店、餐廳、麵包店。公園外還有一個跨境穿梭巴士站。該處一帶充斥性工作者，導致該區形象負面，為區內一大問題。雖然砵蘭街是本地著名的「紅燈區」，亦為遊客熟知的景點，但當地居民一直受該區色情行業困擾。

Site History 選址背景 Portland Street is one of the most popular street in Kowloon. You can find a wide range of trades and businesses, including renovation materials shops, hardware stores, various retailers, food stores, fruit market, local restaurants, hourly hotels, and in recent years, large shopping malls, boutique hotels, galleries and cafés.

砵蘭街是九龍區其中一條人流最暢旺的街道，商店業務林林總總，有維修店、五金行、各種零售店、食店、果欄、本地食肆、時鐘酒店；近年，該區還建有大型商場、精品酒店、畫廊和咖啡店。在八、九十年代，砵蘭街是個紙醉金迷之地，夜總會、卡拉 OK、按摩院、情趣酒店及商店等霓虹招牌琳瑯滿目。該區亦經常成為電影拍攝的場景，是香港一重要地標。不同團體及機構近年推動該區重

It was a site of glamour during the 80s and 90s, decked with layers of neon signs of clubs, karaoke, massage parlours, love hotels and shops. The area is also well-featured in Hong Kong movies, and is a prominent sign of local Hong Kong. Portland Street is also a popular red light district for locals despite the gentrification of the area led by community groups and local and public agencies.

建，使這個原本聚集勞動階層的舊區，出現士紳化

A lot of the users of the Portland Street Rest Garden has been frequently visiting the garden for many years, and the glamorous history of the area and older park users’ daily habits has inspired the team to design their new concept.

道之間互相依存的關係，是團隊構思設計時討論

Gambling, wandering around, drinking, chilling, chatting and people-watching are what contributes to the idea of "play". And the co-dependent relationship between the old and new, black and white has been the core discussion during the team’s idea development process.

136

現象。儘管如此，砵蘭街仍是本地熱鬧的紅燈區。砵蘭街休憩花園的使用者，不少為常客，多年來經常到花園活動。砵蘭街奢華璀璨的往昔，以及今日年長一群天天到訪公園的習慣，使團隊深受啟發，構思出此嶄新概念。對公園訪客而言，「玩樂」是賭博、閒逛、喝酒、散心、閒聊和觀察旁人。這種新舊兩代、黑白兩的中心。

What is "Play"? 「眾樂」的意思 ?

“Play” is more than the mere visual and physical elements it's generally associated with. “Play” can also be static; it can be expressed with subtlety. “Play” can be generated through the act of creation, the processes of discovery, invention, and imagination. “Play” is also associated with a sense of anticipation and hope. 「眾樂」的定義不僅關乎視覺和物理元素而已。「眾樂」也可以是靜態的 ; 它可以更細微地表達出來。「眾樂」可通過創作，勘探，和想像的過程產生。「眾樂」並副有希望和期待感。

Final Design 設計作品 Noting that the majority of park users are elderly, the team has envisioned a thoughtful approach to incorporate existing elements from the site, while injecting new energy and ideas. The future Portland Street Rest Garden will be a multi-functional space for the users, one third of the park area will keep its original layout and structure while restoring and renewing some furniture and equipment, the other part will have a totally new layout with movable furniture system on an open space.

團隊注意到公園訪客大多為長者。為顧及年長一

Besides, the number of seats will also be increased from 20 to a maximum of 60 with the new side benches and movable furniture system, which will provide flexibility for different functions for the space. By arranging the furniture, people can make the space into forum, performance stage, dining area, meeting room, and different social settings.

倍添生機，使其有鮮明的視覺形象。

The new part of the park will also include plant selections in a vibrant pink tone, creating a positive energy, and a sharp visual identity.

152

群，團隊希望為公園注入新動力和意念的同時，在設計中納入現有元素。新的砵蘭街休憩花園將會成為個多用途空間，園內有三分之一面積將保留原有佈局，當中部分設施及配備將修復和翻新；公園的另一部分則會是全新的佈局，該開放空間將配有可移動的設備。此外，公園的座位數量將由 20 個增至最多 60 個，新的長椅連同移動式檯櫈設計，令空間靈活多變，提供不同功能。公眾可移動檯櫈，將空間變成論壇場地、表演舞台、用餐區、會議室和不同社交場所。新設計的部分將以鮮粉紅色系的植物佈置，為公園

aDapTable 搭檯

Table sharing, typical in Chinese restaurants in Hong Kong, was the inspiration for the design conceived with the community in mind. "aDapTable" is a communal space for sharing, featuring a large table with a sculptural surface in the center. The surface of the table is essentially a miniature of the neighbourhood, which indicates locations of unique shops that have inspired the use of materials in the park. The table also accommodates a range of activities. It is a place for dining, reading, chatting, and potentially programmed activities such as round-table discussions and exhibitions. The table’s large continuous surface automatically engages visitors in an experience of sharing, allow visitors to engage in conversations naturally, and cultivates a sense of community. Visitors who stroll in the neighborhood are often impressed by its rich variety of shops that house techniques of making and production unique to the area. Some of these include steel ware, copperware, handmade chopping boards, and signage shops. aDapTable uses local materials produced in the Yau Tsim Mong area, such as steel ware, copperware, and chopping boards. It celebrates this culture of making as a social adhesive that ties the community’s artisans together. aDapTable is a park where one gets to know the neighbours and the neighborhood. It is a shared space for interaction and collaborative creation. Everyone plays a part in aDapTable. 158

本設計意念來自香港盛行的「搭檯」傳統，旨在為區內居民和其他使用人士提供高質素的公共休憩空間。大檯檯面設有高低起伏的方塊，組成社區的地圖。地圖上標示鄰近社區展現獨特手作文化的商鋪。另外為進一步彰顯社區的手作文化，「搭檯」的不同角落也會運用鋼、銅、鉆板等物料。圍繞大檯，大家吃東西、讀報、聊天，而大檯偶爾也可以成為舉行討論會的地方。「搭檯」特地使用油尖旺地區生產的本地材料，如鋼製品、銅器和砧板，藉以頌揚地區文化，將社區的工匠聯繫起來。花園將提供不同款式的座位，有些圍繞大檯，有些散落其他位置，鼓勵使用者互相交流。大家有緣搭檯，分享生活中閒適的一刻。

Site Analysis & Research 選址研究

Hamilton Street Rest Garden 咸美頓街休憩花園 Hamilton Street Rest Garden is located in Yau Tsim Mong District, around the corner of Portland Street and Hamilton Street junction. It is approximately 243m² in size, the smallest site among the four. The main feature of the rest garden is a large lush tree. The garden is popular and usually fully seated, serving all walks of life. Hamilton Street Rest Garden is in close proximity to the Portland Street Rest Garden.

咸美頓街休憩花園位於旺角，在砵蘭街和咸美頓街交界的角落。它的面積約為 243 平方米，是四個花園中最小的。花園的主要特徵是一棵青蔥大樹。這花園非常受歡迎，供不同人使用。咸美頓街休憩花園跟砵蘭街休憩花園十分接近。

Existing Facilities 現有設施 The existing Hamilton Street is irregular in shape with two main entrances. A large Chinese Banyan tree is a main feature of the park. A white popinac, a tall bottlebrush, and two royal palm trees also offer shelter for users. Benches are arranged on the periphery of the park. Users sit facing the interior of the park but there are limited facilities to encourage communication between users.

現有的咸美頓街形狀不規則，並有兩個主要入口。公園的主要特色為一棵大型的中國榕樹。此外，白色的銀合歡、高大的紅千層和兩棵皇家棕櫚樹，也為用戶提供護蔭。公園周邊設有長椅。用戶坐在公園裡面向內部。可是，公園內並沒有設備來鼓勵用戶之間的互動。

Current Users 當前用戶 Currently, main users of the existing park include the elderly and ethnic minorities that are mostly male. These users tend to see the park merely as a resting space. As such, interaction between users is limited, and there is a sense of isolation despite close proximities between seats.

目前，公園的主要使用者為老年人和少數民族，主要是男性。這些用戶傾向將公園視為休息空間。因此，用戶之間的互動罕見。儘管他們坐得很近，卻仍然存在距離感。

Neighbourhood 鄰里 The park’s neighbourhood boasts a number of shops that house techniques of making and production unique to the area. These include shops that manufacture steel ware, copperware, handmade chopping boards, and signage.

公園的鄰近社區有許多商店，當中牽涉該區獨特的製作和生產技術，包括鋼製品商店、銅製商店、手工製砧板商店和招牌商店等。

Site Analysis & Research 選址研究

Site History 選址背景 Yau Tsim Mong is the third densest area in Hong Kong. With a population surpassing 330,000, its density is 48,230 / kilometre square. Although Hong Kong Planning Standards and Guidelines prescribe two meters squared as the per capita standard for open space, the per capita open space in the area is only less than one-meter square per person. Yau Tsim Mong is thus in need of a quality park that will offer residents and visitors a space for leisure and activities.

油尖旺是香港第三個最密集的地區。人口超過

33 萬，密度為 48,230/ 平方公里。「香港規劃標準與準則」規定以兩平方米作為人均開放空間標準。然而，該地區的人均開放空間不足每人一平方米。因此，油尖旺需要一個優質的公園，為居民和遊客提供休閒和活動空間。咸美頓街休憩花園位於咸美頓街和砵蘭街交界，是鄰近地區較大的開放空間，為該地區的居民和工人使用。公園靠近彌敦道及油麻地地鐵站，有可能吸引有興趣前往鄰近地區的遊客。

Located at the junction of Hamilton Street and Portland Street, the 246 square meter Hamilton Street Rest Garden is one of the larger open spaces in the neighbourhood. It is used by the area’s residents and workers. With proximity to Nathan Road and the Yau Ma Tei MTR Station, the park also has the potential to draw other visitors who are interested in the neighbourhood.

What is "Play"? 「眾樂」的意思 ?

To play is to play a part and be involved in the community. At "aDaptable", users do not only consume the space for personal enjoyment, but also play a part in creating a community. They engage with each other. They share with each other. Together, they create a sense of community. 成為社區的一分子。在「搭檯」，使用者不僅享受空間，同時參與創建社區。他們彼此互動、分享，建立歸屬感。

Local Materials and Craftsmanship 工藝物料和技術 There is a copperware shop and a number of steel ware shops in the neighbourhood. Handmade chopping board shops and signage shops are also special features in the area. Bing Kee Copperware is one of the most well-known shops that produces copperware for daily use including kettles and basins. Established in the 1940s, it is the last copperware shop in Hong Kong. Kam Hing Signage produces signage for a variety of shops and institutions with zinc stencils. The neighbourhood is also characterized by a large number of steel ware shops, which sell containers and kitchenware. Close to Yau Ma Tei are shops that sell handmade chopping boards of different sizes for home use as well as at markets.

Design Process 設計過程

Public Engagement 公眾參與 In order to understand the unique techniques of making in the neighbourhood, the team has carried out workshops and collaborated with makers from local shops to design elements of the park. Key shops that participated include Man Kee Chopping Board, Bing Kee Copperware, and Kam Hing Signage. They worked with Man Kee Chopping Board to make a chopping board chair prototype, Bing Kee Copperware to make a lamppost prototype, and Kam Hing Signage to make a park signage prototype. These prototypes are displayed at an exhibition as a way of introducing the public to the neighbourhood’s culture of making. Visitors are invited to touch the materials of the furniture and to understand the process of making, thereby allowing them to learn about the history of making in the neighbourhood.

172

為了解區內商店獨特的製作技術，我們舉辦了工作坊，與該區商店的工匠合作，一起設計公園的元素。主要參與的商店有萬記砧板、炳記銅器和金興招牌。我們與萬記砧板合作，製作一塊砧板型座椅的原型；與炳記銅器製作燈柱原型；又與金興招牌製作公園告示牌原型。這些原型在展覽展出，向公眾介紹該區的工藝文化。參觀者可觸摸展出原型的物料，了解製作過程，從而認識該區的工藝歷史。

“Protecting public space is one of the most important things that architects should and could be involved in, because space is being progressively privatized and it’s very important to have these spaces of release where there is a public interest at stake. We need to be vigilant about this. I’m really glad you’re doing what you’re doing, because maybe if we can’t make another central park, we can make a hundred micro-parks.” 「保護公共空間，是建築師應該做的其中一件最重要的事情，也是建築師所應該參與其中的事。空間變得越來越私有化，釋放那些關乎公眾利益的空間，是非常重要的。我們對此事要非常小心。我很高興能有這個項目，因為如果我們不能建造另一個中央公園，或許我們能做一百個微型公園。」
