悉尼达令广场 | ASPECT与隈研吾联手新作
由ASPECT Studios和隈研吾建筑合作改造的达令广场亮相悉尼。这是一个全新的步行街区项目，将达令港与唐人街、禧市、欧田磨区和中央车站连接在一起。项目由Lendlease（联实集团）开发打造，将住宅、商业、零售功能和社区设施聚集在一起，共同围绕成为一个全新的公共空间。
The Darling Square, which was co-renovated by ASPECT Studios and Kengo Kuma, will soon be unveiled in Sydney. It is a new city walkable neighbourhood connecting Darling Harbour with Chinatown, Haymarket, Ultimo and Central Station. The mixed use precinct, being developed by Lendlease, brings together residential, commercial, retail uses and community facilities, anchored around a new public square.
达令广场是一个供居民、办公白领和游客们使用的场所，它坐落于原来的悉尼娱乐中心和停车场的场地上，位于改造后的达令港生活商区南部。
Sitting on the site of the former Entertainment Centre and car park, south of the revitalised Darling Harbour Live precinct, Darling Square is a place for residents, workers and visitors.
包含约1,500套公寓、26,000平方米的商业建筑和约77家零售商的这一全新街区正在逐渐成型。

2014年底，Lendlease选择了ASPECT Studios作为本项目的景观设计顾问。设计范围包括一个全新的公共广场和相邻街道，以及对公共区域建筑选址和整个达令广场建筑界面的城市设计。"这个场地的面积约5,000平方米，相当于12个篮球场大小的公共空间，这对于我们的城市来说是非常了不起的。" ASPECT Studios设计总监Sacha Coles说到，“在一栋大楼里集合了幼托、图书馆、餐厅、酒吧，这些完全服务于公众的功能，是一项了不起的成就。”
In late 2014, Lendlease selected ASPECT Studios to design the project’s public spaces, including a new public square and adjacent laneways. This included the urban design for the public domain building locations and building interfaces across Darling Square. “To have a space like this, about 5,000 square meters, it's about 12 basketball courts of new public space. It is pretty remarkable for the city.” says Sacha Coles, Director of ASPECT Studios, "To be completely public all the way through childcare, library, restaurants, bar in one building, is a pretty remarkable achievement."
以行人为中心的强大道路网络，包含了街区、车道和人行林荫大道，激活了地面景观，增强了广场作为商业区中心以及一个包容性公共空间的作用。
A strong, pedestrian-focused network of streets, laneways with active frontages and a pedestrian boulevard activate the ground plane, reinforcing the square as part of the precinct’s centrepiece and as an inclusive public space.
广场的设计为北面台阶上提供了休闲座位，硬质的开放空间为临时活动提供了场地，同时还包括可供游客野餐的草坪空间，以及遮阳区和座位区。
The square provides informal seating on the northern steps, a hard-paved open space for temporary events, a turfed space for picnics, shaded areas and seating areas.
从中央车站到唐人街和达令港，达令广场将这些原本各自独立的区域紧密“缝合”在了一起。全新的街区改变了这一片区域，为悉尼市民和游客们提供了丰富的使用体验和享受。
From Central Station to Chinatown and Darling Harbour, Darling Square stitches a previously disconnected area back together. The new neighbourhood has transformed the area, bringing together a variety of uses for Sydneysiders and visitors to use and enjoy.
