Carvolth综合开放空间(Carvolth IOS)是一个形式与功能紧密结合的典型代表,这里的雨水管理系统、公共娱乐设施以及教育项目被规划整合到一个1.6公顷的线性绿地中。Carvolth IOS由三种不同的景观类型组成,一系列相互连接的雨水处理功能反映了从自然原始的土地到公共公园和城市广场的过渡。一条共同的水道主线贯穿了这三种景观类型。在美学上,水滴形等大胆的形状强化了整体概念,同时也界定了空间范围并提供了座椅、停留区等其他功能。场地细节中还包括了视觉艺术,这再次强调了水的概念,设计者使用巧妙的颜色来展示Golden Ears山和其他受到保护的景观。水元素的很多方面都被利用在了设计当中,从其形式、颜色和图案的视觉效果,到水元素本身就出现在洼地、水景和水上游乐设施中,再到更加微妙的听觉效果——通过设计允许人们在路径上行走时能够听到下方传来的水声。

Carvolth Integrated Open Space represents a seamless combination of form and function, whereby stormwater management strategies are integrated with public recreational and educational programming into a 1.60-hectare linear green space. Carvolth IOS is comprised of three distinct landscape types, with a series of connected stormwater features reflecting the transition from more natural land to public park to urban plaza. Throughout these three landscape types, the common thread of water is ever present. Aesthetically, bold forms such as the water droplet reinforce the overall concept while also delineating spaces and providing seating, retaining and other functions. Visual art has been included with details that again reinforce the water concept, while subtle colours are used to complement the protected views to Golden Ears Mountain beyond. Many aspects of water have been incorporated into the design, from its visual representation in form, colour and pattern, to the inclusion of water itself in swales, water features and water play, to more subtle auditory connections where the design allows for the sounds of water to be heard in those instances where it travels beneath pavers.

功能方面,Carvolth IOS充当了公共雨水处理设施,接受来自周围6.3公顷混合用途场地的雨水径流,在其排入Latimer小溪和Serpentine河之前进行净化和减速处理。这种可视的雨水处理功能在规划良好的公共景观中作为一项重大成就,提高了人们对如何在社区公园尺度上进行雨水景观设计的认知。

Functionally, Carvolth IOS acts as a public stormwater amenity, receiving stormwater runoff from the surrounding 6.3-hectare mixed use site, slowing it down and cleaning it before it is released into Latimer Creek and the Serpentine River. The visible integration of this stormwater function within a well programmed public landscape is a significant achievement that elevates the awareness of how landscapes can be designed with stormwater in mind at the neighbourhood park scale.

PMG团队负责这个开放空间各个方面的设计。最初他们提出了一个以水为中心的纯粹美学概念,这随后激发了利益相关者的灵感,他们认为Carvolth IOS不仅仅是一个社区公园,受到水元素的概念启发,这个开放空间被重新设想为一个公园形式的雨水处理设施。
PMG was responsible for leading all aspects of the design of this open space. What started as a purely aesthetic concept featuring water as a central theme, then sparked inspiration among the stakeholders, who saw its potential as more than just a neighbourhood park. Informed by the concept of water, the space was reimagined as a functional stormwater amenity, in park form.

这项成功的公共空间是通过开发商、Langley镇政府密切的合作,以及PMG作为主要顾问弥补了技术上的不足来实现的。作为主导本设计的景观设计团队,PMG满足了开发商的需求以及镇政府对城镇发展的期望,将时有不同的愿景综合成一个具有凝聚力的综合公共空间,在实体层面和视觉上都与周围社区相互连接,并在功能上与更大的生态系统相互交融。
The realization of this successful public space was achieved through a strong collaboration with developers, the Township of Langley and with PMG as the prime consultant, bridging the divide. As landscape architects leading the design, PMG was able to leverage the understanding of developers needs with the expectations of the Township to synthesize sometimes disparate aspirations into a cohesive, integrated public space that is physically and visually accessible and connected to the surrounding neighbourhood, and functionally connected to the larger ecosystem.

Carvolth IOS通过设计社交和玩耍的场所,展示了一个模范的环境,同时还为人们提供了被动和主动接受教育的机会,来提高人们的社会意识。通过揭示雨水的处理过程,Carvolth IOS让人们能够观看到自然生态系统。场地中还设置了解释性的标志牌,进一步告知游客有关雨水以及现场管理方式的信息,希望随着人们对这些信息了解的增加,能够改善当地水土的治理情况,进而修复因数十年被隐藏的关键基础设施造成的脱节现象。
Carvolth IOS demonstrates exemplary environmental and social awareness by providing critical outdoor public space for neighbourhood connection and play, while also providing passive and active educational opportunities for visitors to see and learn about stormwater management. By revealing stormwater processes, Carvolth IOS allows people to view and celebrate the natural systems. Interpretive signage is included to further educate and inform visitors about water and how it is managed on site, with the hope that with increased understanding will come increased stewardship of the land and water, healing the disconnect created by decades of hiding critical infrastructure where it is out of sight, out of mind.
