Playground without Boundary by hdystudio

童樂無疆界

Playground Without Boundary

INTRODUCTION

在偶然的情況下知道智樂兒童遊樂協會和unicef 合辦了共融遊樂空間設計慨念比賽。我們希望透過比賽來實驗我們對於兒童遊樂場的想法，於是立刻便動手開始設計。當初由收到比賽章程到完成比賽用了一個星期多而已的時間，雖然短暫但過程還是樂此不疲，在圖紙上畫畫畫，便很快成形，爽快得很。反而後續的餘韻持續了好幾個月。為了展覽而著手做立體模型，也重新把圖都整理了一遍。因為大部分的設計最後都不被釆納。我們想打破這種設計的宿命並書寫一個設計的真實故事，可能會引發極微量的設計餘念或得到更多的反饋機會。因此，這個小書項目就開始了。 we were known to the competition by chance and we instantly decided to take part in it. This competition is like a experiment for us to try out what we think towards a playground. The design process is smooth and quick, we spend a few days to try to make up a scheme and we finished it in one week. After being informed we can show our work in the exhibition. The preparation lasted for a few months, from June to September which is much longer then the competition period. We worked on the model and re-paneling all the images. Much of design has been gone to trash than it is celebrated. We try to quit such kind of dreadful momentum and publish back a true story of thoughts, either as traces to next designer or as opportunities to receive more feedback. Therefore, this little book project begins...

YISA’S SHARING 兒童遊樂場與我

Playground and Me

還記得小時候父母常在週末帶我去附近的兒童遊樂場，很容易就能消磨一整個下午。木質的搖搖馬；鐵造的螺旋滑梯；還有能蕩到180度的鞦韆，還有平衡木等等。現在的遊樂場已被塑膠的設施給取締，很多的欄杆軟墊，安全是首要任務，甚少人在意其趣味與獨特性。持份者眼見這種安全之上的遊樂場最能為他帶來最少的麻煩，這種「成功模式」便複製到所有游樂場。再推前一步，觀看我們所住的城市，建築又何嘗不是？

My parents always bring me to nearby playground during weekend when I was a child. It is easy to spend the whole afternoon in the playground. Nowadays playground is replaced by plastic module. They put safety as the first priority of designing playground, not many of them value the importance of its interest and uniqueness. Shareholder see this as a successful model and applied to every playground. When we look at city surrounded us, do we feel the same for buildings?

回想在自己求學階段也以兒童遊樂場為研究對象，明白到一個好的遊樂場由選址，對周遭環境的反應，佈局，到設施的設計都對一個城市與城市的市民有很大的影響。設計師往往把精力都放在設施本身，而忽略了佈局和周遭。因此在這個比賽裡，我們比較著重它整體的佈局，和不同區域，公園之間的關係，也把感官教育元素為設計的考量。希望能為遊樂場注入不同的精神面貌。

The study of playground during my last year of architectural study makes me realize that a good playground consist not only the equipment, but also its location, reaction to the surroundings and the overall layout led to great impact to the city and its people. In this competition, rather then concentrate on play equipment we are more focusing on the overall planning and zoning of the playground and its relationship with different zones and Tuen Mun park. We try to bring in sensory education as a basic element of our design and hoping to shape a new spirit of playground for our next generation.

JONAS’S SHARING

設計的幾點思考對我來說，設計過程和結果同樣重要。在香港, 提供遊樂設施對署方來說好像是最有效的舉措。我不想再看見遊樂場再度工程化和功利化。相反，遊樂場應該是串聯和緊靠小孩子一起成長的片段。作為建築師,具有城市規劃和建築的一些基本知識對這項設計可能是弊多於利。對我來說，我喜歡在項目主題外圍走一圈,或行遠一點. 從都市角度出發,這個屯門公園的角落對附近社區有什麼幫助？我們認為公園是超過城市設計的範疇，是一個提供社區活動的領域。第一筆設計時,我傾向不帶想法，但細心留意每個位置的表現。我們不打算營造奇峰壯谷但想每個角落皆如星閃煉。最後想法變得不那麼明確，但意念是非常強的。

Some thoughs about Design... Design process to me is as important as the design outcome. The idea of play has been too much about provision of equipment in current governance. I cannot afford to see play is instrumental. Instead, it shall be a supportive element to bond pieces of growth opportunities together. Having some background knowledge of city planning and architecture may not be necessary a plus to this design task. To me, we look away from the issue and zoom out more to a city level. What can this corner of Tuen Mun Park contribute to the whole communities? We value a park is more than an urban design, yet a ground of social happenings. I tend not to bring idea into this design first, but listen to how such location perform. We don’t aim at spectacular grace but many starry moments instead. Turn out the ideas become less clear but the intention is quite strong. 6

在過去的十年，出生率都有上升的趨勢。根據統計處的2011年的人口普查，年齡有三至十四歲的占人口百分之九點五，但兒童遊樂場的數目則遠遠不能應付小童人口的需要。而殘疾人士也占總人口百分之六點三，當中青年（三十歲以下）的比例也占當中的接近百分之十，殘疾人士對遊樂場的需求也不能忽視。在香港，以共融慨念設計的遊樂場並不多。共融慨念設計的遊樂場是指遊樂場能夠被不同能力的小童參與，無障礙的玩樂。在美國，近年已提倡把共融慨念放于兒童遊樂場設計裡；在歐洲，在九十年代就以大自然的元素放進兒童遊樂場設計，讓小朋友在遊樂場裡盡情奔跑。

3-14 歲

According to the population census, there are totally 9.5% of the popuation which in the age group of 3 to 14 while in the past few decades, the number of playground built did not match the increase need of the children in Hong Kong. There should be more space for children to play, it is benefit as well as their parents and elderly as playground is also a communal space for the adults to socialize with each other. On the other hand, there are 6.3% of disabilities among total popultion while nearly 10% of them are disabilities under 30. The needs of playground for disabilities are large and cannot be ignored. In America, Inclusive play is one of the design elements of playground. Inclusive Play is a revolutionary concept to make all playgrounds accessible to children of all abilities. 10

兒童遊樂場在設計上參考Lady Allen 的兒童九個感官認知倡議，不單讓兒童有更多活動的機會，還透過玩樂來進行感官教育，令兒童在各個感官上更加靈敏，從而更好的感受世界。 The importance of playground towards children is not only encouraging children to have more physical movement but also in the sensory exploration of play. Refine the child’s senses so that he can appreciate the world around him.

Child Life 兒童生活

「港孩」是形容現在的香港的兒童，他們常常被過分保護，而家長又十分重視學業，為他們安排了密密麻麻的課外活動。根據2011年的調查，超過百分之四十五小學四年級到六年級的同學平均參加四到六項課外活動；百分之二十二更參加超過七項。除此之外，香港的學童都花了大部分的時間在功課上，能讓兒童玩耍的時間也少之又少。根據問卷調查，兒童不去遊樂場玩的主要原因是覺得遊樂場太悶和他們太忙，沒有時間去遊樂場。對年紀大一點的小朋友，他們寧可去上網玩電腦游戲等比較刺激的遊戲，都比傳統的兒童遊樂場吸引。

Children nowadays are over-protected and their parents was over-controlled them. According to the questionnaire, the most common reasons of not go playing in the playground are playground is too boring and they are too busy. Playground in Hong Kong is not appeal to the elder children; they have other exciting games such as computer and video games. According to the research about the situation of primary four to primary six students joining extra-curricular activities in 2011, more than 45 percent of students are joining four to six extra-curricular activities and 22 percent are joining more than seven.Moreover, Hong Kong children need to spend a lot of time on homework under the education system. These left children with little private time for themselves and for play. 12

SITE CONDITION 實地環境

現有的屯門公園是比較大，但空間總是切分得零碎,其邊界總是確似的，封閉的和有次序的。使用者不能在不同的切分空間之中遊走。 The existing Tuen Mun park is large however break into bits and pieces and enclosed by 11 boundary where children is not able to use the playground freely. Existing Children’s Play Areas

現有的公園有很多風景地貌，我們利用其高低起伏去設計遊樂場。

當思考遊樂場應否有壁壘分明的邊界，或融合並且成為公園的一部分? 我們的設計就這個問題出發，透過交織不斷的行徑網絡，重新組織和設計愛民村不同遊玩的區域。這些遊樂設施包含使用者不同 Oil Man Estate 程度的參與，也有不同程度的冒險元素和不同年齡組群的配合。

我們認為遊樂是一系列多重感官的體驗，有助兒童的成長發展。設計提供不同的環境佈局，有山丘、水樓梯、滑板窪地、攀網以至浮網地帶。這些多向尺度的改變是利用公園本身已有的地勢去形成主要的地景設計概念。簡而言之，我們憧憬一個配合不同年齡層、不同種族、不同傷健程度的兒童遊樂場，集遊玩、耍樂、閒恬、觀景、康樂於一身的共融角落。

The design questions on the need of boundary between play area and the rest of the park where playground can be easily reached by users . It reorganizes zones of play into interwoven routes. Such play facilities include different level of engagement, age-group-focus and also risk-taking. We see play as a multi-sensory experience for child growth. The design provides multiple environmental settings, from knolls, water steps, and smooth skating ground to climbing net and floating net area. Such dimensional transformation is utilized of the site existing ground-scape and be principal strategy for landscape. In other words, we envision a fuse of play, leisure, observe and rest into this universal corner of the park.
