自发性生态原型：自然与建筑的融合
A Spontaneous Ecology Prototype: Nature’s Architecture Integration

本项目将武汉的荒野（ruderal）策略提升为气候基础设施，通过推崇荒野建筑与景观物种作为高效的生物气候工具，去中心化传统模式。在特定的花园城市环境中，这种富有弹性的策略能自然地管理极端的雨水径流，减少城市热岛效应，并促进被动式降温，而无需修剪整齐的绿化方式所带来的巨大能耗。该设计旨在将自发性生态重新定义为一种高度精确的、低碳的本土化机制，而不是“不整洁”的。它成为了一种更加去中心化、包容且对气候响应敏锐的建筑的基础性策略。

This project elevates Wuhan’s ruderal approach as climate infrastructure, decentralizing the traditional model by championing ruderal architecture and landscape species as highly efficient bioclimatic tools. In targeted garden city environments, this resilient approach naturally manages extreme stormwater runoff, reduces urban heat island effects, and facilitates passive cooling without the massive energy draw of manicured green approaches. The design aims to reframe spontaneous ecology not as “untidy,” but as a highly calibrated, low-carbon vernacular mechanic. It becomes a foundational strategy for a more decentralized, inclusive, and climate-responsive architecture.

在渗透性花园中运用参数化乡土性：亚洲巨型城市的当代生物气候整合
Exercising Parametric Vernacularity on The Permeable Garden: Contemporary Bioclimatic Integration for the Asian Mega-City

受中国乡土建筑重触觉而轻视觉的启发——强调标高、轻盈与透气性——整个庇护所是对中国传统乡土叠涩屋顶（stacking roof）的重新诠释。该建筑被设计为景观在室内外呈360度视觉连接的圆形悬挑延伸体。它成为一个在视觉上全方位连接的结构，支持对其周围地形的多层次访问，而不是将其阻挡在外。

Inspired by China’s vernacular emphasis on tactility over visuality—prioritizing elevation, lightness, and breathability—the entire shelter is a reinterpretation of China’s traditional vernacular stacking roof. The building is designed as a circular, cantilevered extension of the landscape, both inside and outside. It becomes a structure that connects visually in 360 degrees and supports multi-level access to its surrounding contours rather than blocking them out.

作为花园底层植被运作
Operating as Garden Undergrowth

该项目作为公园管理办公室、公共厕所、遮蔽休息区、小型零售区、花园画廊以及公园内多层连接的庇护基础设施——形成了一个上层雨篷（canopy），为公共生活保护着一个高度多孔、透气且有阴影的地面层。整合100%的绿化置换率和150%的集水区，确保建筑的雨篷不仅具有遮阳功能，还能在物理上压缩并加速低速风，在无需电力的情况下创造微气候。倒锥形屋顶充当花园上方的灯笼和室内元素，而立面上的一系列悬浮花池则被设计为将雨水直接引导至雨水收集系统，处理后用于公园的灌溉。

The project acts as shelter infrastructure for the park’s management office, public toilets, a sheltered resting space, a small retail area, a garden gallery, and a multi-level connection within the park—forming an upper canopy that protects a highly porous, breathable, and shaded ground layer for public life. Integrating 100% green replacement and a 150% water catchment area ensures that the building’s canopy functions not just for shading, but to physically compress and accelerate low-velocity winds, creating micro-climates without power. The reverse-cone roof acts as a lantern and an interior element above the garden, while a series of floating planters on the facade is designed to directly channel rainwater to a water harvesting system to be processed for the park’s irrigation.

视无常为永恒
Impermanence as Permanence

RAD+ar提出了一种建筑理论，即建筑物注定要被植物覆盖、留下美丽的岁月痕迹，并（像新陈代谢有机体一样）不断被重建或改造，而不是冻结在时间里。该设计位于武汉的光寰艺术中心（Luxoasis art expo center），试图阐明一个观点：人类中心主义的建筑时代已经让这个星球失望。未来的花园城市必须被设计为动物、植物和天气系统的生态宿主，将它们视为与人类地位同等的主要客户。最终，该设计的目的是实践并挑战“内部”与“自然”之间贫乏的现代主义边界。

RAD+ar proposes an architectural theory where structures are intended to be overgrown, to stain beautifully, and to be continuously rebuilt or adapted (like a metabolic organism) rather than remaining frozen in time. Situated in the Luxoasis art expo center in Wuhan, the design was trying to make a point that the anthropocentric (human-only) era of architecture has failed the planet. The future garden city must be designed as an ecological host for animals, flora, and weather systems, treating them as primary clients of equal status to humans. Ultimately, the design’s purpose is to exercise and challenge the sterile modernist boundary between “inside” and “nature.”
