Australia's northern city square

设计方：Peter Elliott Architecture + Urban Design

位置：澳大利亚墨尔本

该城市广场位于墨尔本北部A’Beckett区，是一处临时性的弹出式休闲空间，受到了学生和年轻人的青睐。它坐落于斯旺斯顿教学楼之后，长期以来一直是墨尔本皇家理工大学的的露天停车场。如今，墨尔本皇家理工大学将其改造为占地2800平方米的集体育设施、烧烤、自行车停靠、无线上网休闲等为一体的开放式公园。

场地的很多地方都采用回收的材料和日常生活中常见的东西建构。毫不夸张的说，该地可以说是一个“回收厂”广场。它与周围的新建居民楼、多层停车场和大学区形成对比，显得别具特色。这是一处与众不同的灵活的临时性设计：是一个主要用于篮球、排球等运动的娱乐休闲场所；是一个放松、赏景、观人的社交场所；是一个以鲜明颜色区分、图案划分开来的有趣的地方。设计采用了迷人的、充满活力的背景抽象空间，青翠的绿色、灼热的红色、荧光的成色覆盖了几米高的墙壁，创造了城市森林和沙漠景观的概念设计。

A’Beckett Urban Square is a temporary ‘pop-up’ recreational space that has become an instant magnet for students and young urban dwellers. Located behind the Swanston Academic Building the site had been used by RMIT University for many years as an open air car park. While the site awaits redevelopment, RMIT has generously opted to turn this underutilized and derelict space into a publically-accessible 2,800 square meter ‘pop-up’ park incorporating multi-use sports courts with spectator seating, table tennis, BBQ facilities, bike parking, Wi-Fi, plants in tubs and places to sit and relax.

Typically ‘pop-ups’ occupy leftover and underutilized spaces through the use of recycled materials and the clever adaption of everyday found objects. They are often gritty spaces that are curate rather than designed. A’Beckett Urban Square was conceived as a piece of urban theatre carved out of the surrounding city, which is framed by new residential towers, multi-level car parks and RMIT academic buildings.

The design approach was purposefully lean, developing upon the idea of a temporary and demountable installation. It is an active place for casual recreation, mainly for ball sports like basketball and volleyball. It is a place to socialize, relax and watch people. There is a playful use of bold colors and graphics on the ground plane to distinguish the active hard zones from passive soft zones.

A specially commissioned large-scale artwork by Melbourne artist Ash Keating, wraps the site on two sides. This work, titled Natural System Response provides an engaging and energetic backdrop to the space with abstract swaths of verdant greens, searing reds and fluorescent oranges covering walls several meters high. Keating created the murals to represent the idea of an urban forest and a desert landscape, using airless spray from pressurized, paint-filled fire extinguishers.
