Our main building is the placebo for a person’s id disorder.

 

Like the campers who are seeking breakaways from overly regulated urban lives, our architecture presents itself in a state of chaos. The translucent facade and shelter echo the softened shell of the person’s mentality. And with the seemingly chaotic construct, we wish to restore the balance to the camper’s psychic trinity.

 

We chose plot A over B because it is sandwiched between a pond and woods. The size of plot B is on the large side, and it does not provide a sense of privacy. After all, camping is a short-term residency. Plot B is instead planned for outdoor activities like frisbee and kite-flying. We strategically placed our buildings on plot A to form an enclosure, to nurture a sense of protection and belonging. Within the enclosure, the camping site is fragmented with shrubs and bushes to subtlely suggest the designated locations for tents.

 

The installation which consists of signage, a viewing deck, and a cascading water feature is located facing the main street. To access the main building, the visitors are invited to venture through the woods. At the moment their spatial experience is released from compression while coming out of the woods, the concierge awaits in front of them. A cafe and a convenience store are placed next to the concierge, providing basic food, beverages, and camping accessories.

 

The main structures are all made of scaffoldings, for ease of pre-fabrication, fast installation, fast dismantling, easy transportation, and reuse. The facade membrane is the same material as the tents. We can seek sponsorship and manufacturing cooperation from the tent manufacturers.

 

The whole building is cost-friendly, construction friendly and instagramable.

我们将营区的主体建筑定义为都市人本我失衡的安慰剂。

 

像寻求摆脱都市条条框框的束缚的露营者一样,我们的建筑以一种因为肆意而凌乱的姿态来呈现自己。半透明的建筑表皮类似人心软化的铠甲,也希望用直觉化的凌乱构造来消解都市生活中过度理性带来的本我失衡。

 

两个地块中我们选择了地块A。相比B,A有树林湖水环伺,整体场地尺度适中。营地毕竟是休憩之所,过于空旷的地块不利于私密性的保护。而开阔的地块B也更适合户外运动,如飞盘,放风筝等。即便是尺度适中的地块A我们也希望通过建筑的摆放来为营地形成围合和心理上的安全感。在围合内部也希望通过低矮灌木丛将整个地块碎片化,并通过小尺度的碎片来暗示帐篷的摆放位置。

 

主体建筑中的标识,瞭望台和电影幕布为一体的装置临近主干道。而营地接待,帐篷租售处需要人们沿通幽曲径,穿过树林,在空间感释放的一瞬间的位置上遇到。帐篷租售处旁,安排了小型的咖啡店和小超市,提供简单的饮食和露营需要的杂物。

 

三个建筑的主体结构都由脚手架构成。全部构件可预制,方便快速安装,拆解,运输,和再次使用。也缩短施工周期,j减小对已经自发形成的的露营活动的影响。表皮是半透明的帐篷的材料,可寻求帐篷厂商的赞助和合作。整个建筑施工简便,造假低廉,最重要的是充满地标感。
