老化中的城市公共空间 | Urban Public Space In Aging

四十多年来，深圳的改革与发展成果为全世界所瞩目。在深圳飞速发展的城市建设过程中，本土村落逐渐被淹没、变成钢筋水泥的丛林，甚至最终消失无踪。

深圳的蛇口，是中国改革开放最早的地方，这12平方公里的土地，是中国改革开放40年的历史缩影。经过四十多年的城市化发展，蛇口从一个名不见经传的小渔村变成了一个人口密集的海滨中心城区，与此同时，蛇口的旧城区也逐渐开始面临公共空间老化和不足的情况。

For more than 40 years, the achievements of reform and development in Shenzhen have attracted worldwide attention. During the rapid development of urban construction in Shenzhen, local villages were gradually vanishing and turned into concrete jungles, and eventually disappeared.

Shekou, only 12 square kilometers of land in Shenzhen, is the earliest place of China’s reform and opening up. It is the epitome of China’s 40 years of reform. After years and years of urbanization, Shekou has changed from an unknown small fishing village into a densely populated coastal urban center. At the same time, the old city of Shekou is gradually facing the problem of aging and insufficient public spaces.

影剧院广场的发展和消失的海岸线 | The theater square and disappearing coastline

上世纪80年代末建成的蛇口影剧院广场，作为最重要的街区文体广场，一直是蛇口居民公共生活的核心场所。广场经过三十年的发展，外来人口不断涌入，街道越来越拥挤，广场已不能满足现在居民的公共空间使用需求。

伴随着改革开放，外来人口的涌入，城市飞速的发展起来。此时，蛇口的海岸线也因填海造陆不断外扩，蛇口原本的蜿蜒的自然海岸线逐渐消逝，传统村落文化和景观也随其逐渐消逝。

The Shekou Theater Square, built in the late 1980s, has been a most important cultural square of the block and the center of public life for local residents. After 30 years of development, and as migrants continued to flood, the streets have become more and more crowded. The squares are no longer able to meet people’s needs for public space.

With the Reform and Opening-up, the influx of migrants, the city has developed rapidly. In the mean time, the coastline of Shekou was also expanded due to land reclamation. The original natural coastline gradually disappeared, as well as the traditional village culture and landscape.

设计概念 | Shekou Memory Wall

不同于传统文化墙的被动接受方式，蛇口记忆墙的影像盒子通过文字和影像，留住逐渐被冲淡的蛇口本土文化记忆，并尝试以“好奇与窥探”的方式，让路人不经意间进行主动的探索，寻得这份属于蛇口的记忆。以“消失的海岸线”为思考原点，蛇口记忆装置分为了海岸变迁图、时间刻度线、蛇口记忆墙三部分。

Unlike traditional cultural walls which are accepted passively, the image box of Shekou Memory Wall retains the gradually fading local cultural memory through text and images, and tries the pattern of “curiosity and snooping” to let passers-by inadvertently explore and find the memory that belongs to Shekou.

The “disappearing coastline” as the original thinking, Shekou Memory Device is comprise of three parts, coastal changes map, time scale, and Shekou memory wall.

海岸变迁图，墙面通过渐变孔径的冲孔板描绘出1980年到2010年深圳海岸线的变迁。而在夜间灯光透过穿孔板，点亮海岸线变迁的肌理。

On the coastal changes map, the wall surface depicts the change of the Shenzhen coastline from 1980 to 2010 through a gradual aperture punching plate. In the night, the light passes through the perforated plate to illuminate the texture of the coastline.

时间刻度线，地面建立起时间的刻度线，一个刻度单位代表一年，将蛇口海岸变迁图和蛇口记忆墙连接起来，为路人提供了不经意的故事线索。

Time scale，the scale line of the time is established on the ground. One scale unit represents one year. The Shekou coast transition map is connected with the Shekou memory wall to provide casual stories for passers-by.

蛇口记忆墙，通过将文字和旧照片影像盒子嵌入墙体，利用略微外凸于墙体的影像盒子，让路人可以主动探索蛇口的历史景象。

Shekou memory wall，by embedding text and old photo image boxes in the wall, you can use the image box that is slightly convex on the wall to allow passers-by to actively explore the historical scene of Shekou.
