项目陈述
PROJECT STATEMENT

本项目以加拿大温哥华市推动“真相与和解”的承诺为基础,通过以自然为导向的气候适应策略,构想恢复False Creek历史岸线的长期愿景。项目建立了一种具有示范意义的协作机制,促进市政与省级机构、青年气候适应实验室、文化艺术工作者、设计专业人员、公众以及原住民族文化顾问之间持续而深入的共同学习与交流。在“和解”与“互惠”原则的引领下,设计成果描绘了一个面向未来的转型路径——在不断变化的海岸环境中,原住民族将作为积极参与者和重要合作伙伴,共同推动跨世代的滨水空间更新与管理。该规划既具有前瞻性愿景,又建立在严谨的技术与适应策略基础之上,不仅为气候适应实践提供了启发,也为实现具有实质意义的社会与文化和解指明了方向。

Grounded in the city of Vancouver B.C.’s commitment to truth and reconciliation, this nature-based climate adaptation approach envisions a return to the historic False Creek shoreline. A precedent-setting process prompted ongoing, continuous learning between city and province agencies, a youth adaptation lab, cultural artists, designers, the public, and Host Nation cultural advisors. With reconciliation and reciprocity as the foundation, design outcomes represent a future in which Host Nations are active, celebrated partners in the strategic transformation of an ever-changing shoreline over generations. Both visionary and technically informed, this work inspires the practice of adaptation and charts a course for meaningful reconciliation.

项目说明
PROJECT NARRATIVE

互惠与共生

温哥华位于Musqueam、Squamish和Tsleil-Waututh三大原住民族的未割让传统领地之上。如今被称为False Creek的区域,对这些世代守护这片土地的原住民族具有重要的文化与精神意义。当前,该滨水区域已成为城市居民与游客的重要活动空间,但随着未来一个世纪海平面可能上升至1米甚至更高,沿岸面临显著的洪涝风险。

Sea2City设计挑战是一项为期12个月的行动,旨在以“和解”为背景,重新构想False Creek滨水区域的未来发展路径,推动原住民族、城市政府、省级机构及更广泛社区之间的协同合作。项目以互惠与共享为核心价值,将参与团队定位为协作伙伴而非竞争者,通过共享文化顾问资源,并开展与市政府及设计团队共同参与的“协作实验室”(Collaboratorium)工作坊。最终成果为城市及区域海岸适应规划提供了框架与愿景,明确将与原住民族的和解作为优先原则。

设计成果

Sea2City的设计工作实现了三项重要突破:首先,在理念层面打破了传统海岸规划的认知边界,强调陆地与水体之间不可分割的整体关系。其次,提出了面向未来、积极正向的False Creek滨水愿景,将原住民族的声音、价值观与发展诉求与社区整体需求相融合。最后,形成了一系列具有可实施性的场地概念与试点项目,这些方案在公众参与的基础上不断优化,引入了在加拿大城市实践中具有开创性的“去殖民化”设计思路。

基于多元视角的分析方法

项目通过直接倾听Musqueam、Squamish和Tsleil-Waututh族群的故事、口述历史、传统知识与价值观,建立了更具文化深度的分析基础。一位原住民知识守护者指出,传统气候适应话语体系本身就会对理解与决策产生深远影响。通过重新构建语言体系,使其符合原住民族强调互惠与关系的价值观,项目实现了认知层面的转变,也重新定义了“恢复历史岸线”的内涵,并以此与城市团队及公众展开沟通。

应对气候危机的整体认知

设计提出了短期与长期相结合的适应策略,针对滨水步道及周边陆地与水域空间,探索保护与动态适应的多种可能。针对社会各界对气候危机理解不足的问题,项目还策划了一系列与气候适应相关的文化活动,促进公众共同学习与能力建设。该参与与沟通工作获得国际公众参与协会(IAP2)认可,荣获加拿大原住民参与奖及年度国际项目奖。

和解与关系建设的现实影响

目前,该项目成果已持续纳入区域机构与市政部门的工作体系之中,并推动城市在部分既有土地利用决策上作出调整,同时为整体海岸适应规划提供重要依据。项目实施资金已落实,其中浮动步道试点工程正在建设中。该项目不仅为未来规划方法树立了示范,也为实现具有实质意义的和解奠定了制度与实践基础。2024年,加拿大景观设计师协会(CSLA)授予其国家卓越传播奖及年度评审特别大奖,该奖项每年仅授予一个最能体现景观设计艺术、科学与实践发展愿景的项目。

PROJECT NARRATIVE

RECIPROCITY AND EXCHANGE

Vancouver is situated on the unceded traditional homelands of the xwməθkwəy’əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Host Nations. The area currently known as False Creek has significant meaning to Host Nations who have stewarded the land since time immemorial. Today, the shoreline is a major destination for residents and visitors, and vulnerable to flooding as sea level rises to one meter and beyond in the coming century. The Sea2City Design Challenge was a 12-month initiative to reimagine Vancouver’s False Creek shoreline in the context of reconciliation between Host Nations, the City, the province and wider community. Embodying values of reciprocity and exchange, this challenge positioned teams as collaborators rather than competitors, with shared cultural advisors and “collaboratorium” workshops with the city and both teams. The design outcomes inform a framework and vision that prioritizes reconciliation with Host Nations to guide City and regional Coastal Adaptation Plans.

DESIGN OUTCOMES

The design of Sea2City achieved three significant outcomes. Firstly, it disrupted the language of coastal planning by recognizing the inseparable connection between land and water. Secondly, it created a forward-looking and positive vision for the False Creek shoreline, where Indigenous voices, values, and aspirations were integrated with community needs. Finally, it resulted in implementable site concepts and pilot projects, refined through public input, introducing novel, decolonized ideas unprecedented in Canadian urban contexts.

ANALYSIS INFORMED BY “WAYS OF SEEING”

Stories, oral histories, knowledge, and values were heard directly from Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh peoples. An Indigenous Knowledge Keeper emphasized the profound impact of conventional adaptation terminology.  By reframing language to align with Indigenous values of reciprocity, a paradigm shift fundamentally transformed the meaning behind returning to the historic shoreline and how that was communicated with the city teams and broader public.

COMPREHENDING THE CLIMATE CRISIS

The adaptive design responses illustrated short-term and long-term design opportunities to protect and adapt the promenade and surrounding land and water scapes.  Responding to the urgent need for shared comprehension of the climate crisis, curated cultural events specific to climate adaptation supported collective learning and capacity building. This work was recognized by the International Association for Public Participation (IAP2), with the Canada Indigenous Engagement Award and the International Project of the Year Award.

IMMEDIATE IMPACT OF RECONCILIATION AND RELATIONSHIP BUILDING

This work is being consistently integrated into regional agency and city department work.  It has inspired the city to change direction on existing land use decisions and informs the City’s overarching Coastal Adaptation Plan.  Implementation is well funded, including the floating walkways pilot project which is under construction. This work set a precedent for future planning methods and created foundations for meaningful reconciliation.  In 2024 the Canada Society of Landscape Architects recognized the project with a National Award of Excellence in Communication and the top Jury’s Award of Excellence, given to one project annually that best demonstrates the CSLA’s vision of advancing the art, science, and practice of landscape architecture.
