今年秋天,一座新建筑在伊曼纽尔CE小学落成,B|D landscape architects设计事务所的设计师Gloucestershire为新建筑设计了独特的运动场所和自然化的游戏场地。
伦敦主教、卡姆登市市长等杰出人物以及老师、学生还有设计团队参加了Emmanuel CE小学新建筑和操场的落成仪式。

Emmanuel小学的重新开发始于1845年,这是卡姆登议会和伦敦教区委员会针对学校的联合项目进行的工作,今年终于在西汉普斯特德学校和广泛的社区把这个长期的梦想变成了现实。
B|D landscape architects设计事务所接受委托与总部位于伦敦的Hawkins/Brown设计事务所一起设计了这处教育和娱乐景观。
新设计的Emmanuel CE小学建筑面积在原有基础上扩大了一倍,在伦敦,完全能够满足小学的需求。
教育场所和外界环境的融合

这处令人印象深刻的景观利用新场所,通过生物多样性来提高其生态价值。由于设计中增加了一些巧妙的元素,孩子们的学习和娱乐很自然地与大自然融合在一起。户外教室、充满生机的新型食用植物花园和运动场上“瓢浮”的五彩缤纷彩虹阶梯成为了外部空间的焦点,也展示出了设计师们的创新设计。

起初,师生们和当地社区都提出并共同探讨了他们对该项目的希冀和愿景,从而最终形成了建造学校运动场最初的想法。参照大家的意见,B|D设计事务所创造了一个独特的错层运动场,在有限的场地内可以完成教学、玩耍、运动等多项活动。

在这个错层运动场中,上面一层包括一个多功能运动区和自然生态化的游戏场地。学校和社区可以共用这个场地,这里的操场和周围开放空间可以融合在一起,让人充分意识到保护自然的重要性。
食用花园里的苗圃正在生机勃勃地生长,给户外学习和生活环境的可持续发展提供了机会。药草花园中鲜艳的花朵散发出迷人的清香,成为一道亮丽的风景。一处野生蝴蝶园由学校和社区共同来管理。

低层的运动场和高层之间通过“瓢浮”的五彩缤纷彩虹阶梯连接,这些阶梯由特制的玻璃钢座椅构成,地面上喷涂的各种图形,犹如一块调色板。B|D设计的这处学习和教育景观采用了灵活的外部空间,利用层次变幻,创造出娱乐和学习场地。

2013年,随着周边公共开放空间的建设完成,包括野花草地、原生林地种植,还有一个自然、动态的游戏场地,也从某种程度上唤起了人们保护自然的意识。

Emmanuel CE Primary School Grand Opening
B|D's innovative design creates a dynamic playspace for Camden school
Summary
Last autumn, Emmanuel CE School celebrated the grand opening of a new school building with a unique playspace and natural playscape designed by Gloucestershire based landscape architects, B|D.
Details
The Bishop of London joined the Mayor of Camden and other luminaries alongside teachers, pupils and the design team for Emmanuel CE Primary School’s grand official opening of the new buildings and school grounds.
An Inspiring Collaboration
The redevelopment of Emmanuel Primary School, which dates back to 1845, was a joint project between Camden Council and the London Diocesan Board for Schools. This was a long term dream that finally turned into reality this year for the West Hampstead school and wider community.
Contemporary landscape architects, B|D, were appointed to design the educational and playable landscape in collaboration with London based architects, Hawkins/Brown.
The newly designed Emmanuel CE Primary School has doubled in size as a direct response to the need for extra primary school places in London.
A Fusion of Education & Environment
The impressive landscape design by B|D enhances the ecological value of the site with new habitats and increased biodiversity tailored to the local biodiversity action plan. A number of clever features have been integrated by B|D to bring a natural fusion between children's learning and their environment. Outdoor classrooms, productive 'edible' gardens and a colourful rainbow terraced 'scoop' amphitheatre are at the focus of the external space showcasing innovative design solutions.
Community Spirit
The initial ideas for the school grounds were heavily influenced by consultations with teachers, pupils and the local community to identify their aspirations for the project. Taking on board this engagement, B|D created a unique split level playground that makes the most use of a constrained site for performance, play, sports and inclusive access.
The Upper Playground level includes a multi-use games area and natural playscape for both school and community use that links the grounds to the surrounding public open space and site of importance for nature conservation.
An edible playground with productive growing beds provides the school with an opportunity for outdoor learning as well as promoting sustainable living methods. A secret garden containing herbs and healing plants operates as an important sensory zone with interesting textures, smells and shapes. A wildlife butterfly garden is jointly run by the school and local open space community action group.
The Lower Playground level is linked with a rainbow inspired ‘scoop’ amphitheatre with bespoke B|D designed grp seating elements and a graphic ground plane that links to the wider open space planting palette. Here B|D's design for the learning and educational landscape incorporates flexible external spaces, making use of the level change through the site for games & learning.
Enhancement of the neighbouring public open space was also completed in 2013 and includes a wildflower meadow, native woodland planting and a natural, dynamic 'playscape' that sits within the site of importance for nature conservation.
