普利斯项目篇:佛奥湾·隐于水泥森林中的度假岛屿

佛奥湾是一处经过精心设计打造而成的热带岛屿风格景观住宅区。整体景观设计风格在传统的基础上融合了全新的、极具创意和视觉吸引力的创作理念，带来充满浓郁东南亚岛屿风情的设计感。

从空中俯瞰，佛奥湾可谓是一个名副其实的东南亚岛屿“新城”，有“大海”、“沙滩”和“凉亭”。户外直游池和儿童池为岛屿中心，其外围顺时针一圈为露天剧场和太极广场、会所地面一层及负一层、儿童游乐区和健身区、集会凉亭、迷你高尔夫球场和湖区等，为不同年龄层的业主提供了充满活力的活动空间，鼓励住户走出个人空间小天地，进入更大的公共空间。

佛奥湾的景观设计由4个主要景观轴线和1个次级景观轴线构成，设计意图是确保住户无论走在哪条景观轴上，都无法忽略“水”这个重要的设计元素。水的多样化形态被表现得淋漓尽致，营造出一个富有动感的景观空间，移步换景。

普利斯设计集团特别将户外直泳池定位为整个项目的焦点景观，并在泳池内和泳池周围设置了大量观赏休憩的平台，住户可以在此欣赏“沙滩、大海”全景。户外直泳池外围一圈的水景更为多样化，绿色水生植物伴生其中，极富视觉享受。有流水溢出的特色水盆、大小不一的浮水踏石、依势而建的各式跌水和堆石、以及水中巴厘岛风格的雕塑、甚至还有仿自然的湖泊，这些元素无一不体现出精心设计的太平洋热带风潮。在热带风格的凉亭上静看小溪跌水，有一种“你在看风景、看风景的人在看你”的人与自然融为一体之感。简而言之，这就是一个隐于“水泥森林”中的度假岛屿。

景观设计从来不仅仅是视觉上的体验，更要考虑到其适用性和功能性，甚至解决总体规划设计中的空间问题，以满足居住其中的人的需求和便利。佛奥湾项目在满足消防紧急通道、“残疾人坡道”及应急服务要求的前提下实现了人车分离。

每栋住宅楼前的入口庭院能将室外“热带岛屿”气氛自然过渡到现代化居住空间。将“度假岛屿”放置在水泥森林中，这是一个大胆、富有想象力的设计。佛奥湾不仅成功地引入了热带度假的概念，还在设计上解决了其与周边现代化住宅楼相协调的问题。

The Central Bay, an architecturally planned and designed tropical landscape project has been completed in the Shunde District of Foshan Guangdong. It combines traditional design with fresh, innovative and visually appealing concepts, resulting in a design that radiates a rich south-east island feel.

When looking at The Central Bay from a bird’s eye view, it can be seen that this ‘new city’ is really a South-East island encompassing all of the tropical zone elements: ‘sea', ‘sand’, and ‘pavilion’. With an outdoor lap pool and kids' pool at its centre, the outer ring of the pool is clockwise comprised of an amphitheatre and Tai Chi court, lower and upper level clubhouse, kids' play and exercise and area, community gathering pavilions, pitch & putt golf course, and a lake area; this residence provides a dynamic activity space for occupants of different age groups, and encourages them to take full advantage of the open spaces available.

The Central Bay's design features 4 major and 1 minor view axis, to ensure that no matter what angle you are walking along, you can interact with the water elements of the design,including a variety of water types and shapes that create a vivid landscape which creates different experiences as you move through the space.

Place Design Group purposefully positioned the outdoor lap pool as the key focal point of the project, which is surrounded by an array of rest areas both in and around the pool to ensure residents have a panorama view of the ‘beach-side’ scenery. The water spaces located on the outer ring are much more diversified and feature water plants to enrich the visual experience. Feature bowls and urns with overflowing water, floating steppers, water cascades with feature rocks and boulders installed in accordance with terrain, Balinese style sculptures in ponds, and even the naturalistic lake, combine to achieve an elaborately-designed Pacific tropical atmosphere. Finally standing in the tropical style pavilion, provides a peaceful view of the creek and waterfalls that harmoniously integrates a viewer into the scenery. It is, in a word, a tropical paradise hidden in the ‘urban jungles’.

The landscape architecture design has not been limited to the visual experience. The projects designers have considered the applicability and functionality and provided solutions to the spatial problems within the maste rplan. Consequently,residents’ diverse needs and convenience are realised. Pedestrians and vehicles are separated in the project while catering for the required EVA, emergency services and disabled access.
