2017年，蒙特利尔为庆祝建市375周年开展了数个“遗产”项目，其中包括在市植物园和标志性的奥林匹克体育场附近修建一座新的公园。该公园以意大利出生的艺术家Guido Nincheri的名称命名，是大规模城市规划项目中的一部分，包括植物园的入口区域扩建，以及对繁忙交通路口的彻底改造。该公园还将成为备受欢迎的生命科学展示场馆“生命空间”的具有象征性的大门。

Montreal celebrated its 375th birthday in 2017, with the inauguration of several “legacy” projects”. One of these was a new park located only steps away from the city’s Botanical Garden and its iconic Olympic Stadium. Named after Italian-born artist Guido Nincheri, the park was part of a much larger urban scheme, which included the widening of the Botanical Garden’s entrance and the radical transformation of a busy traffic intersection. It was also designed as a symbolic gateway to Espace pour la vie (Space for Life), a highly popular cluster of facilities dedicated to life sciences exhibitions.

公园的设计灵感来源于被纵向切割的巨大树干。贯穿整个场地的波浪起伏的红色线条宛如从树木体内流出的汁液，树干上的“结点”则变成椭圆形的花池和座位。弧形的路墩定义出“树干”的外部边界，在强烈的红色线条和更为细致的路面图案之间形成适宜的过渡。

For the firm civiliti, the prime source of inspiration was the image of a tall tree trunk, cut lengthwise and laid on its side. Undulating red lines running through the entire length of the site allude to the sap flowing up the trunk. Knots are transposed into raised oval planters and seating areas. Curvilinear borders and low walls, defining the trunk’s outer limits, create a transition between the strong graphics and the subtler paving pattern suggestive of bark.

从方案的平面示意图中可以看出呈线性延伸的水槽和路面肌理，它们可以将雨水导入公园内的蓄水池。植物的种植、材料肌理和座椅元素的整合经过了细致的研究，环境灯光则使公园的新旧特征得到了准确的强调。

The narrative was first explored in schematic drawings showing the linear movements, the patterns and the meandering surface gutters that channel rainwater to the park’s catchment basins. The integration of vegetation, textures and seating elements was carefully studied as was the ambience lighting meant to put subtle emphasis on the park’s new and existing features.

Guido-Nincheri公园中还设有由魁北克市捐赠的艺术装置，以此纪念蒙特利尔的周年庆。艺术家Jean-Robert Drouillard的装置作品由四根立柱组成，立柱的顶端是身着网球制服的男女塑像，制服背面的数字代表着蒙特利尔历史上的重要日期。在景观建筑师和艺术家的协作下，这件艺术作品与公园的整体景观实现了动态的融合。

The Parc Guido-Nincheri features an artistic installation bequeathed by Quebec City to commemorate Montreal’s anniversary. Artist Jean-Robert Drouillard’s installation took the form of four columns supporting figures of young men and women dressed in baseball uniforms. Numbers inscribed in the back of the figures refer to important dates in the history of Montreal. The architects collaborated with the artist to insure a dynamic integration of the columns within the overall pattern.

Guido-Nincheri公园如今已成为这座小型高密度街区与规模更大的“生命空间”场馆之间的一处活跃的过渡区域。新的公园代替了原本繁忙的交通路口，很快便获得了附近居民的喜爱和认可。

The Parc Guido-Nincheri has become a lively transitional space between high-density low-scale neighborhoods and the more imposing metropolitan-scale facilities of Espace pour la vie. The park, which replaced a busy intersection, has quickly gained the approval of the surrounding community.
