物理花园
The Physic Garden
索比约恩·安德森(Thorbjörn Andersson)与瑞典建筑师事务所(Sweco architects):在瑞士巴塞尔诺华大学(Novartis Campus)担任新物理花园的设计师时,试图创建现代版中世纪修道院花园的想法引起了我们的兴趣。它将为这个地方增加一种时间深度,以及象征性的内容:修道院花园代表了药学作为一门科学的起源,从而代表了诺华作为一家公司的活动。但物理花园首先是庆祝各种感官现象的地方。这是一个可以享受和研究神秘气味、颜色变化和季节变化的地方。
Thorbjörn Andersson with Sweco architects: When commissioned as designers for the new Physic Garden at Novartis Campus, Basel, Switzerland, the idea of trying to create a modern version of the medieval monastery garden intrigued us. It would add a depth of time to the place, as well as symbolic content: the monastery garden represents the very origin of pharmacy as a science and thus the activity of Novartis as a company. But the Physic Garden is foremost a place to celebrate sensuous phenomena of all kinds. It is a place where mystic scents, changing colors, and seasonal variety can be enjoyed and also studied.

这个物理园是基于修道院花园的,在古代,僧侣们发展了他们对植物的药用特性的知识,这为今天的研究工作提供了基础。这些地方通常是隐藏的地方,室外的实验室,远离公共生活,包含着极其重要的秘密。因此,诺华的物理花园被隐藏起来,在空间上被组织成剧院、迷宫或多层洋葱。花园是半封闭式的,游客通过红豆杉(Taxus)和山毛榉(Fagus)高树篱背景之间的之字形运动进入。花园一步一步地显露出来。搜索的人会发现;这是一份与今天的研究者和中世纪僧侣同样相关的声明。
This Physic Garden is based on the monastery garden where, in ancient times, monks developed their knowledge about the pharmaceutical properties in plants, a knowledge that provided the foundation for today´s research efforts. These were often hidden places, laboratories in the outdoors, secluded from public life, containing secrets of utmost importance. Consequently, the Physic Garden at Novartis is hidden, spatially organized as a theatre, or as a labyrinth, or as an onion with many layers. The garden is semi-enclosed, and the visitor enters through a zig-zag movement between backdrops of tall hedges of yew (Taxus) and beech (Fagus). The garden reveals itself step by step. The one who searches will find; a statement which is as relevant to the researcher of today as it was to the medieval monk.
略微凹陷的盆地增加了植物的珍贵性,并放置在低花岗岩墙的框架内,这些脆弱的标本变得不可触摸。从稍高的角度看,我们可以把花坛看作是一幅色彩鲜艳、纹理丰富的画或是一块条纹地毯。没有栏杆的轻型桥梁横跨下沉的床,让大胆的游客可以更仔细地检查植物,每一株植物都在床的边缘贴上了刻有铜牌的标签。
The slightly sunken basin adds to the preciousness of the plants, and placed inside the frame of a low granite wall, these fragile specimens become untouchable. They are viewed from slightly above, and we can read the flower bed as a colorful and textured painting or a striped carpet. Bridges of light construction, without railings, span the sunken bed, permitting the daring visitor a closer examination of the plants, each of which is labeled with an engraved bronze plaque mounted at the edge of the bed.
沿着下沉床的两侧是四个“木架”,一堆堆堆成一堆的原木,其形状与树篱的屏风相得益彰,也让人想起图书馆。所选择的木材类型代表从中提取物质并用于民族药理学的树种。艺术家Pål Svensson设计的一系列类似双耳座的饮水机为游客提供了滴水声、反光镜和茶点。总的来说,有70种植物在Physic Garden展出。
Along the sides of the sunken bed are four “log racks”, a collection of logs stacked in piles whose forms complement the screens of hedges, and are also reminiscent of a library. The types of wood selected represent tree species from which substances have been extracted and used in ethnopharmacology. A series of amphora-like drinking fountains, designed by artist Pål Svensson, provides a dripping sound, a light-reflecting mirror of water and also refreshment for the visitor. All in all, 70 plant species are on display in the Physic Garden.
