Agriculture as urban landscape: Rice paddies entering the city

An urban park composed of productive agriculture. A large site is divided into regular plots, planted not with ornamental plants but with crops—rice, sunflowers, rapeseed, and vegetables, rotated seasonally, so the park's color and height change completely every few months. Between the plots are elevated wooden boardwalks and gravel paths, allowing people to walk among the crops with an unobstructed view. The field ridges and irrigation channels are part of the design, with water flowing from a higher elevation through each plot. Surrounding the park are high-rise buildings, creating a strong juxtaposition. The scene depicts the season when rice ears turn yellow. Avoid: replacing crops with ornamental flower fields, making the plots into irregular decorative patterns, eliminating irrigation systems and field ridges, separating the park from the urban background.

一座以生產性農業構成的都市公園。大面積的基地被劃分成規則的田塊,種植的不是觀賞植物而是作物——水稻、向日葵、油菜與蔬菜,依季節輪作,因此公園的顏色與高度每幾個月就完全改變。田塊之間是抬高的木棧道與碎石步道,人在作物之間穿行,視線可以越過。田埂與灌溉水路是設計的一部分,水從高處一路流過各個田塊。周邊是高樓大廈,形成強烈的並置。畫面呈現稻穗轉黃的時節。避免:使用觀賞性的花海取代作物、把田塊做成不規則的裝飾圖案、消除灌溉系統與田埂、讓公園與都市背景分離。
