Architizer近期公布了2024年A+ Awards奖的获奖名单，该大奖专注于推广和表彰年度最佳建筑。Didier Design Studio的项目“授粉者所在之地”被选为2024年Architizer可持续景观/规划类评委会优胜奖。该奖项旨在表彰采用可持续系统和材料，并在设计、施工和运营中人性化的项目。

Architizer recently announced the winners of the 2024 A+ Awards, the largest awards program focused on promoting and celebrating the year’s best architecture. Didier Design Studio was selected as the 2024 Jury Winner in Architizer’s Sustainable Landscape/Planning category for their project,“Where the Pollinators Are”. This category awards projects that incorporate sustainable systems and materials, and which follow best practices pertaining to ethical design, construction, and operation.

该项目是位于美国宾夕法尼亚州立大学植物园的授粉者花园。该项目是该校农科院正在进行的一项研究计划的延伸，旨在了解和解释近期全球授粉昆虫和鸟类数量减少的原因。

The Jury-winning project is the Pollinator and Bird Garden, located at The Arboretum at Penn State in State College, Pennsylvania. The project is a direct extension of an ongoing research agenda to understand and explain the recent decreases in pollinator and bird populations across the world.

该研究计划主任、农科院助理教授Harland Patch说：“这个花园的独特之处在于：它将栖息地设计、可接触的美丽设计与多样化的植物组合在一起，甚至其中很多植物是在其他任何花园中都看不到的。”

Harland Patch, director of pollinator programming at the Arboretum, and assistant research professor for the Penn State College of Agricultural Sciences, said, “The garden is unique in that it puts together habitat design and design that is accessible and beautiful to humans with a very diverse mix of plants, many of which you will not see in any other garden.”

了解并扭转世界各地那些承担授粉者功能的物种的消失情况对人类生存至关重要。而在面对环境和经济灾害，许多人都有一种无可奈何的无力感。对此，Didier Design Studio创意总监兼花园首席设计师Emmanuel Didier指出：花园以具体且可触摸的方式将人们与授粉者减少的问题联系起来，并在气候变化的背景下将科学放在首位。这一行动无疑蕴含着巨大的希望。

Understanding and reversing pollinator species disappearances around the world is critical to the continuation of human existence. In the face of environmental and economic disaster, many are left with a sense of powerless inevitability. In response, creative director of Didier Design Studio and lead designer of the Garden, Emmanuel Didier said, “The Pollinator and Bird Garden connects people with the issue of pollinator decline in specific, tangible ways, placing science in the forefront in the context of climate change. There is hope in that action.”

设计与研究在这座占地3.5英亩的花园中同步展开，并实现了三个相互关联的目标：直接传达和解释现场进行的科学研究、为人们提供一个了解授粉物种们栖息地的美丽花园、激励游客在自家花园中推行“城市栖息地”。其中最后一个目标有可能指数级地帮助一个更健康的生态网络在城市已开发景观中的拓展。

This agenda unfolds across the 3.5-acre garden and realizes three interrelated goals: to directly convey and interpret scientific research being conducted on site, to offer an engaging place for people to learn about pollinator and bird habitats, and to inspire visitors to implement urban habitats within their own private gardens. This latter goal has the potential to exponentially impact the spread of healthier ecological networks across already-developed landscapes.

为了实现上述目标，Didier设计工作室组建了一个设计专家团队，并将该项目作为与宾夕法尼亚州立大学授粉者研究中心研究人员的合作之旅。

To realize these goals, Didier assembled a team of design experts and framed the project as a collaborative journey with research staff at The Center for Pollinator Research at Penn State.

设计以多年的研究为基础，对平整后的牧场进行了改造。为了花园最终能在一年四季都吸引传粉昆虫和鸟类，设计创造了多样化的生态条件以支持各种必要的植物物种。土壤也被改造成一个具有活性的地形。在这里形成了一个囊括七种不同土壤和覆盖物的土地马赛克：包括粘土沼泽、湿草地壤土以及干燥条件下排水良好的集料土壤等。

Grounded in years of research, the design approach transformed a level pasture to create a diverse set of ecological conditions that could support the wide range of plant species necessary to entice birds and pollinators throughout the seasons. The ground plane was sculpted into an activated terrain, forming a mosaic of seven soil conditions and pollinator-attuned mulches prescribed to create novel land typologies, from swales lined with clay, to loamy soils for wet meadows, and well-draining aggregate soils for dry conditions.

经过雕琢的地形在整个场地内形成了多样化的微气候条件、生态区和栖息地。设计团队精心设计和组织的小径则让游客们能够沉浸在传粉者的世界中。

The sculpted terrain fosters a wide array of microclimates and conditions across the site, creating a diversity of ecotones and habitats through which pathways and trails are carefully choreographed to immerse visitors into the world of pollinators.

关于这次设计的体验，Didier认为：“我们经常听说当今世界上正在消失的传粉者物种数量惊人……但我认为这个花园提供了一个独特的机会：翻转体验。从‘人类世界中的授粉者’到‘授粉者世界中的人类’，这个花园就是改变这种基本关系的地方，促使我们思考人类在当今世界中的地位。”

Of this curated experience, Didier said, “We often hear about the alarming amount of species of pollinators disappearing from OUR world today… but I think this garden offers a unique opportunity: to flip the experience, from pollinators in the world of people, to people in the world of pollinators. This garden is an agency in transforming this fundamental relationship: our position in the world today.”

花园在第一年展示了340个耐寒植物类群，其中78%为乡土物种或经过精心挑选的园艺品种。种植这些植物的目标是为本地昆虫（尤其是授粉昆虫）以及该地区的留鸟和候鸟提供最大的生命周期支持。如今，花园生机盎然，激发了人们对单个和集群化栖息地建设的关注和行动。

In its first year, the Pollinator and Bird Garden showcased 340 hardy plant taxa, of which 78% were native species or selections thereof. Plants were targeted toward species that would provide maximum life-cycle support for native insects – particularly pollinators – and the region’s resident and migratory birds. Today, the garden brims with life, inspiring care and action toward fostering habitat at individual and collective scales.

该项目还入选了2024年World Landscape Architecture Award的候选名单，并于2022年获得了美国景观建筑学会-科罗拉多荣誉奖。

The Pollinator and Bird Garden was also a 2024 World Landscape Architecture Award Shortlist selection and, in 2022, won the American Society of Landscape Architecture – Colorado Honor Award.
