Abstract
Abstract In the Madrid Río Park, two very different approaches to landscape design have been juxtaposed and coexist. The first project_designed by the group composed of MRío and WEST 8_was a staged space based on a rereading of several sites by the evocation of a series of symbolic figures in the city and territory. The second, by the Ecologistas en Acción group, utilized a process of ‘naturalization’ of the Manzanares to bring about a formless configuration of the river. Today, Madrid Río Park is the expres sion of the two very different projects, created ten years apart, enacting two strategies, each with its own very different language and aesthetic outcome; such is the profound complexity of the urban public space created, that the park has become a major case study. This essay will try to analyse its dual soul by addressing the notions of the ‘formal’ and the ‘formless’.
在马德里Río公园，两种截然不同的景观设计方法并存。由MRío和WEST 8组成的团队设计的第一个项目是一个基于重新阅读几个地点的舞台空间，通过唤起城市和地区的一系列象征性人物。第二个项目由Ecologistas en Acción小组设计，利用Manzanares的“自然化”过程，形成了河流的无形形态。今天，马德里Río公园是两个截然不同的项目的表达，创造了十年，制定了两种策略，每个都有自己非常不同的语言和美学结果;这就是城市公共空间创造的深刻复杂性，公园已经成为一个主要的案例研究。本文将试图通过解决“形式”和“无形”的概念来分析其双重灵魂。
期刊介绍：
JoLA is the academic Journal of the European Council of Landscape Architecture Schools (ECLAS), established in 2006. It is published three times a year. JoLA aims to support, stimulate, and extend scholarly debate in Landscape Architecture and related fields. It also gives space to the reflective practitioner and to design research. The journal welcomes articles addressing any aspect of Landscape Architecture, to cultivate the diverse identity of the discipline. JoLA is internationally oriented and seeks to both draw in and contribute to global perspectives through its four key sections: the ‘Articles’ section features both academic scholarship and research related to professional practice; the ‘Under the Sky’ section fosters research based on critical analysis and interpretation of built projects; the ‘Thinking Eye’ section presents research based on thoughtful experimentation in visual methodologies and media; the ‘Review’ section presents critical reflection on recent literature, conferences and/or exhibitions relevant to Landscape Architecture.
