C J LIM 马来西亚人
cook的得意门生，在英国也红的很，去年在orlean archilab也有个专展 《virtually venice》我也看了，创造一种独特的表达语汇，将诗意哲学与叙事性用一种图像的方式表达出来，他的路子我还是非常喜欢的，如果非要找个词概括他的话，我想说，他绝对是一诗人，图像诗人！
这次去他的studio参观，他展示了最近做的深圳 smart city 光明新城的规划方案模型，这个projet是个有2万人口的大区。勒·柯布西埃在上个世纪二三十年代间提出了一个“光明城市”（Radiant City）的构想，集中体现了他的高楼旷地、立交穿梭的现代城市规划理论，其中的积极与消极直至影响着今日中国的许多现代化的城市规划建设。据说这个竞赛受柯布的启发，这次竞赛有5个事务所和studio参加 ，MVRDV， KHR+APRT，奥地利的rpax，C J LIM Studio 8。
C J LIM的 smart city 是在信息技术和生态农业基础上的新型乌托邦smart city，巴别塔般的街道和建筑、空中巴士、在悬空城市下方漫步的光明奶牛以及在田野里摆弄手提电脑的农场职工，相当地乌托邦，很打动人。
他人也超好，走的时候，送我们一人一本价格20磅的作品集
Chinese eco-cityAward-winning architectural-urban designer and UCL Bartlett academic, CJ Lim, has made it to the final three in a competition to build a new eco-city in China. Lim has beaten off stiff competition from some of the world’s largest and most prestigious firms to make it to this stage.
Seventy firms submitted entries for the competition in November 2006, which were then whittled down to five and now to three – the winner will be announced next week. The brief was to design and plan an environmentally-friendly city from scratch, in GuangMing, northwest of Shenzhen in the Guangdong Province of China. This competition is the second city-design competition in a plan by the Chinese government to create five new eco-cities.
The scale of the GuangMing project is enormous, with the proposed new town covering an area of 7.92 km2, or as Lim puts it: “The scale of the city is like walking from Shoreditch in East London to Swiss Cottage in North West London.”
Currently, GuangMing is a fertile farming area that exports much of its produce to nearby Hong Kong. This focus on farming provided Lim with much of the inspiration for his competition entry and has resulted in a radical new approach to how our cities are designed and planned.
Instead of abandoning farming, Lim has incorporated it into the fabric of the city – lush grazing and arable land can be found on the roofs of the huge circular towers that make up the city. Additional land for crops is made available on a series of eighty vertical farms; 10m2 allotments cantilevered off a central spine and stacked one above the other like the branches of a giant tree, and dispersed throughout the city.
As a result, GuangMing – which Lim dubs the ‘smart city’ – is entirely self-sufficient. He explains: “A smart city integrates educational, agricultural, environmental, and most importantly, social sustainability into the heart of the city. GuangMing Smart-city is a city driven by the principles of slow living, emphasising a happy balance in life that is firmly rooted in the twenty-first century.”
GuangMing is made up of twelve of these circular towers rings, which are effectively self-sufficient suburbs, each of which produces its own food and contains its own shops, schools, hospitals and offices to serve approximately 14,000 inhabitants. The idea behind this is to encourage people to stay in their own locale and to be environmentally efficient, although Centres of Excellence – each with its own special feature such as a museum, university or town hall – can be found in eight of the circular tower rings, so that inhabitants have the opportunity to travel to different centres at the weekend.
The infrastructure of GuangMing is just as environmentally friendly. It is a car-free city – the only transport found in GuangMing is via biogas buggies and a sky bus, both powered by processing human and animal waste. Electricity comes from a forest of solar panels found at ground level on a huge manmade beach, surrounding a series of waterways, which are both recreational and provide a cooling element to the hot, landlocked environment.
For all its radicalism, Lim’s scheme is entirely practical and can be built. This is due in part to close collaboration with environmental consultants Fulcrum and leading engineering firms Techniker, and Alan Baxter Associates. The experience has been a massive undertaking for Lim and is an astonishing achievement. Lim says: “It’s not like the usual competitions or research projects I have worked on and to work for the Chinese Government is very prestigious. But whilst it was great fun it was really exhausting and very challenging.”
