Radio Park at Rockefeller Center / HMWhite

该项目的目标是创造一处独特且令人难忘的城市景观，使其得到全世界的认可，并与洛克菲勒中心的名声相媲美。在这里，入口处的空间被设想为一片茂密的树林，将身处建筑中的视角转变为沉浸在森林中，树木连绵的花边树冠营造了森林的气氛，斑驳的阳光在花园的入口处的路面上舞蹈，而这些美景掩盖了四面洛克菲勒中心的建筑，这些钢筋水泥的大楼在视觉上得以弱化。

Text description provided by the architects. The project directive was to create a distinct, and memorable urban landscape design that would be recognized world-wide and be on par with the celebrity of  Rockefeller Center. Upon arriving, the entry space is conceived as a dense woodland grove of trees that  shifts the perspective of being in a building to being immersed in a forest and a The trees’ contiguous lacy canopy reads as a forest. Dappled sunlight dances on the garden’s entry pavement while the four-sided Rockefeller Center building context is disguised and visually erased.







阴凉的石子路蜿蜒穿过屋顶的亭子，通向一个充满阳光的中央草坪。中央草坪建立了轴线方向的空间组织，参考了洛克菲勒中心的古典建筑框架。一系列阶梯状的石墙将人们的视线引向花园深处，并以修剪整齐的高大黄杨树篱为终点。各种各样的花园小径通向不同的目的地，每条小路都在一个独特的景观中循环，同时各部分的总和构成了具有凝聚力的景观组合。

Shaded meandering stone paths wind through the rooftop pavilions which lead to a startling sun filled central lawn expanse. The central lawn panel establishes an axial orientation and organization that references Rockefeller Center’s classical architectural framework. The central lawn draws one’s eye deeper into the garden through a series of stepped stone seat walls and culminates with a crisply trimmed tall Hornbeam hedge. A variety of garden paths lead to the diverse garden destinations. Each path circulates within a distinct landscape typology, yet the sum of its parts comprises a cohesive landscaped composition.





优异的亲生物设计——在城市环境中能够立即进入自然世界，并令人沉浸其中。微气候效益——通过密集的屋顶热毯提高建筑的热能和冷能效率，增加城市生物量，缓解"热岛效应"，广阔的阴凉林地树冠在夏季提高了舒适水平，为用户创了造独一无二的城市景观体验和令人难忘的场所空间，使办公场所成为理想的、富有成效的工作地，为后疫情时代重返办公室的混合工作文化提供多样化的工作、会议和社交场所选择，为现有建筑的业主和计划开发的新商业空间提供了增值的可能性。

Benefits, Biophilic design – Immediate natural world accessibility and immersion within an unexpected urban environment, Micro-climatic benefits - Increased building thermal and cooling energy efficiencies with intensive living-roof thermal blanket, Substantially increasing urban bio-mass – Mitigating “urban-heat-island effect”, Expansive shade-producing woodland tree canopies improving human comfort levels during summer months, Creating a one-of-a-kind urban landscape experience and memorable place for tenants which enhances an office destination as a desirable and productive workplace, Offering a diversified work, meeting, and social workplace option for the post-pandemic, return-to-office, hybrid work culture,  Demonstrating commercial building tenant amenity options and value-added possibilities for building owners of existing structures and for developers planning new commercial space developments



重大的技术和特定场地的挑战，在一个共享的复杂的景观设计中设计了无线电城音乐厅舞台隔板屋顶，协调了东、西楼入口之间6英尺高的地形高差，与具有历史意义的建筑元素和材料融合。

Significant Technical And/Or Site-Specific Challenges, Upholding the Radio City Music Hall stage bulkhead roof access, mechanical, and event/production operational requirements within a shared intricate landscape design, Reconciling a 6-foot level topographic change between east and west buildings’ entries, Sensitivity to historically significant architectural elements and materials.









该项目是以科学为基础的景观设计，模拟了微气候条件，测量阳光、阴凉和风的模式，为植物群落的分配提供信息，并引入景观特征来缓解恶劣的季节性天气条件。微气候研究及其测量是HMWhite景观设计过程的基础。之前，在HMWhite与Cornelia Hahn Oberlander的合作中，这个软件程序被成功地应用于纽约时报大楼的大堂花园设计（作为Renzo Piano Design Workshop建筑设计的一个组成部分）。

Science Based Landscape Design, Modeled micro-climatic conditions to measure sun, shade, and wind patterns to inform plant community assignments and introduce landscape features to mitigate harsh seasonal weather conditions. Microclimatic research and its measurement are fundamental to HMWhite’s landscape design process. Previously, the one-of-a-kind software programmed was successfully applied on The New York Times building’s Lobby Garden (conceived as a component of Renzo Piano Design Workshop’s building design) within HMWhite’s collaboration with Cornelia Hahn Oberlander
