奥克兰国际机场位于新西兰北岛一个地峡的东部边缘,地形向崎岖的海岸线展开,地理位置十分优越。自从毛利人第一次乘坐瓦卡独木舟从波利尼西亚来到这里,通过在石块堆砌的挖掘区种植热带植物,改变了这里的地貌,成为一种神圣的景观。几百年后,欧洲移民通过种植果园和林木进一步改变了这里的景观。他们也通过分层种植严格的绿篱保护作物免受恶劣气候的影响。毛利人和欧洲移民都极大地塑造了奥克兰和更广泛的新西兰景观。
Auckland International Airport is strategically located on the eastern edge of an isthmus of the North Island of New Zealand, where the topography unfolds into the rugged coastline. This is the region where the Maori first arrived in waka canoes from Polynesia, transforming the landscape through the cultivation of tropical plants in stone-lined excavations that became a sacred typology. Centuries later, European immigrants further modified the landscape with the cultivation of orchards and timber trees. They, too, protected the crops from the harsh climate with layered plantings of strict hedgerows. Both the Maori and European settlers dramatically shaped the Auckland and broader New Zealand landscape.
奥克兰机场的景观体现了人与土地的关系,也体现了新西兰乡土景观的多重历史。参照毛利人石场的石丘拔地而起;灌木丛的基准线覆盖在这些石丘上,创造了一个简化的地面平面,从这个平面上可以清晰地读出大奥克兰的城市和火山景观。这些土形具有双重目的,因为它们涉及到现场土壤修复和雨水处理,这是机场更大的生态任务的一部分。
The airport landscape is an expression of this engagement of people and land, and it celebrates the multiple histories of New Zealand’s vernacular landscapes. Stone mounds that reference Maori stonesfields rise from the ground; a datum of hedgerows overlays these mounds, creating a simplified groundplane from which the greater Auckland landscape—both urban and volcanic—can be read with a newfound clarity. The earthforms serve a dual purpose as they address on-site soils remediation and stormwater treatment, part of a larger ecological mission of the airport.
较小的石头 "叶片 "参考了喷气式发动机的运动,并强调了飞机、汽车、自行车在机场景观中的抵达、旅行和电影般的编排的兴奋感。新西兰本土的草柔软了叶片,并将其与区域景观联系起来。从Hukafalls到奥克兰的火山,新西兰的景观中提取了一系列色彩,并投射在石板上:欢迎旅行者来到新西兰的景观中。
Smaller, stone ‘blades’ reference the motion of a jet engine, and emphasize the excitement of arrival, travel, and cinematic choreography—of planes, cars, bicycles—through the airport landscape. Native New Zealand grasses soften the blades and connect them to the regional landscape. A spectrum of colors are pulled from the dramatic New Zealand landscape, from Hukafalls to the volcanoes in Auckland, and projected on the stone blades—welcoming travelers to the landscape of the
