Partyaardvark

弗洛伦蒂安·霍夫曼工作室：阿纳姆市中心的一片荒地被改造成了一个标志性的公园：一片繁荣的石南景观，中间躺着一尊巨大的帕提亚德瓦克雕像。在它的背上，好像它已经开派对很久了。孩子们在Partyaardvark上跑上爬下，从它的腹部跳到它躺在的柔软的沙地上，这个非传统的公园把这个绝对不存在的地方变成了这个城市最生动的广场之一。
Studio Florentijn Hofman: A former wasteland in the city-centre of Arnhem is transformed to an iconic park: A flourishing heather landscape with a huge statue of an Partyaardvark lying amidst of it. On it’s back, as if it has been partying to long. With children running and climbing up and down the Partyaardvark, jumping from it’s belly into the soft sandy landscape he’s lying in, this unconventional park had turned this absolute non-place into one of the most vivid squares in the city.

Partyaardvark

2012年，当D.T.O的Transiteeam和景观设计师哈罗·德容（Harro de Jong）向市政当局提出将这片荒芜地区（由于教堂被拆毁后危机仍未建成）改造为城市的一片自然景观时，这一转变就开始了。阿纳姆惊人地坐落在巨大的自然公园维鲁韦的边缘，但似乎对此并不感到骄傲。因此，作为对阿恩海姆周围环境的颂歌，他们把它带到了城市。字面上石南花植物从自然公园移植到市中心，这是一种新奇的做法。
The transformation started when D.T.O’s Transitieteam and landscape architect Harro de Jong approached the municipality in 2012 with the idea to turn this desolate area (due to the crisis remaining unbuild after a church was torn down) to a patch of nature in the city. Arnhem is phenomenally situated on the edge of the huge natural park the Veluwe, but doesn’t seem to take much pride in this fact. So as an ode to Arnhems’ surroundings they took it to the city. Literally. The heather-vegetation is transplanted from the natural park into the city centre, a novelty.

与此同时，艺术家弗洛伦蒂安·霍夫曼（Florentijn Hofman）正在寻找一个有意义的地方来创作他的作品，这是汉堡动物园（就在阿纳姆郊外）送给这座城市的礼物。公园和雕像的完美结合：坡度平缓的小型自然公园是一个30米长的过度扩张的Partyaardvark的软床。Partyaardvark是一种非凡而快乐的动物，每天睡22小时。现在，这个好玩的Gesamtkunstwerk吸引了年轻人和老年人，因为Archiburning为这一迄今为止缺乏传统城市设计的地区带来了新的生活和意义。
In the meantime artist Florentijn Hofman was looking for a meaningful place to create his Artwork, a present from Burgers’ Zoo (just outside Arnhem) to the city. The combination of park and statue was perfect: The gently sloping mini-scale natural park is a soft bed for the 30m long overscaled Partyaardvark – a remarkable and joyful animal that sleeps 22 hours a day. And now this playful Gesamtkunstwerk attracts young and old, as archipuncture catalysing new life and meaning to this part of town where conventional urban designs was lacking thus far.
