城市生活所 Urban Living Lab
香港大角咀  Tai Kok Tsui, Hong Kong
2025.1

「城市生活所」的設計將大角咀傳統白鐵工藝與複合竹材料結合,營造自然、舒適的公共空間。旋轉的建築造型借鑒船體形態亦呼應 「轉 - 角」 主題,創造起伏海浪的意象,重現大角咀海陸變遷的空間特色。希望藉此探討香港建築師如何藉助本地和周邊地區的不同資源優勢,以設計實現傳統工藝創新,探尋環境、文化與社區的多重可持續意義。重現大角咀海陸變遷的空間特色、激活社區的集體回憶,共同想象大角咀的社區未來。

「城市生活所」是爲受城市更新影響的香港大角咀社區打造的公共空間設計實驗。項目將城市邊角空間轉化爲一柄巨型遮陽傘,創造適應亞熱帶氣候的公共休憩空間。建築殼體幾何形態圍繞現有樹木構建,最大限度延伸遮蔭範圍,阻隔直射陽光,同時保持自然通風。

設計團隊與當地船舶業的五金工匠合作,將傳統鍍鋅鋼工藝與現代技術結合,通過建築彰顯社區未被關注的獨特物質文化。「城市生活所」不僅是休憩場所,更成爲社區集會和公衆教育活動的精神地標,在持續更新的城市中構建人文紐帶。

建築採用預製化裝配式設計,基於五個可循環使用的相同結構模塊。結合華南地區生産加工的膠合竹材與本地的可回收鍍鋅鋼材工藝,可有效減少直接熱輻射,營造舒適微氣候,同時實現負碳建築繫統。相較於傳統鋼結構,整個建築的碳足跡減少75%,預計減少7噸二氧化碳排放。項目採用可循環模塊化繫統設計,通過淺結構基礎避免永久性構築。未來可按需要拆解重組,部署至其他經曆類似市區更新的公共空間場地,成爲城市肌理循環再生的一部分。

The design combines local galvanized steel crafts and laminated bamboo materials to create a communal space for the transforming Tai Kok Tsui neighbourhood. The fluid form of the vessels creates an image of the moving waves and reactivates the public’s collective memory of Tai Kok Tsui’s unique spatial quality between sea and land, provoking a new imagination of Tai Kok Tsui’s urban future.

Urban Living Lab is a public parasol that creates a respite from Hong Kong’s subtropical climate, providing communities with a space to gather, socialize, and relish in the public environment. The architecture's geometry is strategically planned around existing palm trees to maximize shade and facilitate cooling breezes throughout the space.

Collaborating with local metalworkers from the ship manufacturing industry, the design explores techniques to revitalize traditional galvanized steel crafts by incorporating modern fabrication technologies, reviving the collective memory of the neighborhood's distinctive material cultures between sea and land. The architecture becomes not only a public rest place, but also a cultural landmark for community gatherings and public education programs, which cultivates a sense of humanities and cultural bonding amidst the rapid urban renewal process.

The architecture of Urban Living Lab is prefabricated and based on five identical, redeployable structural modules. The hybrid use of laminated bamboo material from South China and locally recycled galvanized steel can reduce direct heat gain and create a decent micro-climate. The ambition is to achieve a bio-based, carbon-negative building system ​(above base). The embodied carbon is reduced by 75% when compared to steel systems, with an estimated 7-ton CO2 emission reduction. The project is designed as a recyclable, modular system. By employing a shallow foundation to avoid permanent installation, in conjunction with recyclable structures for potential relocation, the project explores an agile strategy to infuse new vitality into the urban residual space and inspire innovative future uses.
