城市棕地转化的典范与韧性设计：该项目成功地将一个长期被遗弃、严重污染的二战后棕地，转化为具有高度公共价值的“树木图书馆”公园。其精髓在于设计团队（Inside Outside）的十年坚守与城市多方合作，最终实现了从概念到落地的蜕变。设计通过引入23种“圆环森林”的独特结构，不仅恢复了生态环境，更巧妙地将公园覆盖在关键地下基础设施之上，实现了功能性和渗透性的统一，成为城市更新中复杂场地治理的典范案例。
“圆环森林”的结构美学与功能融合：设计的核心魅力在于其清晰的结构逻辑——“圆环森林”的几何母题。这种重复且序列化的布局，使得23种树木得以有序展示，每种树木都有其身份标识，共同构建了一个动态的、可阅读的植物百科全书。随着树冠的生长，它们自然形成遮蔽不同活动区域的“植物亭”，实现了景观美学、遮阳避雨功能与文化展示的完美结合。笔直的道路系统则打破了纯粹的圆形序列，创造了一个多中心的网格，确保了与周边环境的高效连接。
城市界面重塑与交通的隐形整合：此公园不仅是一个绿地，更是城市肌理的积极干预者。它巧妙地充当了市政、商业、居住区及交通枢纽（如加里波第车站）之间的界面与缓冲带。最关键的创新是，将一条主干道从公园下方穿过，极大地降低了噪音污染，使得公园成为一个宁静的户外公共客厅。这种对场地底层复杂交通和基础设施的“隐形”整合能力，体现了高水平的城市规划设计远见，确保了公园的持久活力和使用舒适度。
From the Second World War onwards, this park was an undeveloped brownfield site used for storing construction materials, temporary events, and annual circus performances—essentially chaotic. Due to its proximity to Garibaldi Station and being surrounded by busy traffic, the soil eventually became severely contaminated.
自第二次世界大战起，这个公园是一块未开垦的棕地，用于储存建筑材料、临时活动和年度马戏表演——基本上杂乱无章。因为靠近加里波第车站（Garibaldi Station）且被繁忙的交通包围，久而久之土壤被严重污染。

Four times—the City of Milan organized four competitions to revitalize this land, but no proposal was ever realized. This continued until the Inside Outside team emerged in 2003, insisting on the necessity of implementing this winning park design from 2009 onwards! The Municipality of Milan became our client, and later, the developer Manfredi Catella joined in.
四次——米兰市曾四次组织竞赛试图焕活这块土地，但从未有一个方案实现。直到 2003 年 Inside Outside 团队出现，并从 2009 年起坚持此次公园获胜设计落地的必要性！米兰市政府成为我们的委托人，后来开发商 Manfredi Catella 也加入进来。
Objectives of the Intervention
“Biblioteca degli Alberi” (Library of Trees) is a new form of public park—serving as an urban connector, cultural ground, sports field, and botanical garden; simultaneously functioning as a permeable cover for important underground infrastructure nodes. Design collaborators for the park included Michael Maltzan, Mirko Zardini, Piet Oudolf, Irma Boom, and Studio Giorgetta.
介入的目标
“Biblioteca degli Alberi”（树木图书馆）是一个新形式的公共公园——作为城市连结、文化园地、运动场和植物园；同时作为重要地下基础设施节点的可渗透覆层。公园设计合作人包括 Michael Maltzan、Mirko Zardini、Piet Oudolf、Irma Boom、Studio Giorgetta。

Design Description
The park showcases 23 different tree species, each organized into circular compositions, known as the “circular forests,” distributed throughout the park. Each tree is described and named, compiled into text integrated along the paths.
设计说明
该公园展示了 23 个不同的树种，每一种都以圆形构成组合，即所谓的“圆环森林”，分布在公园内。每棵树都有说明和命名，编作文本融入沿途的道路中。

Once the tree circles mature, their dense foliage will form canopies, turning into “plant pavilions” equipped with various facilities for sports, games, and leisure; the spatial structure provides shade for multiple uses. Straight paths cut across the park, connecting the landscape nodes and surrounding areas, creating a multi-centered grid system.
树圈长成后繁茂的枝叶将形成顶，化作“植物亭”，附有各种运动、游戏和休闲设施；空间结构为多种使用形式提供荫蔽。笔直的道路横贯公园，将景观节点和周围区域连接起来，创造了一个多中心的网格系统。

This “path network” creates an irregular collage, a series of distinct garden types. The planting in each area has been carefully selected—along with the biotope pond and trees—to create a dynamic, all-season environment of high biodiversity. For the parking area around Fondazione Catella, we designed a special curtain-like fence to avoid disturbing the park's structure. The main composition of this park is the “canopy garden,” where trees and garden types are strategically placed to ensure the longevity of the plants.
这个“路径网络”创造了一幅不规则的拼贴，一系列迥异的花园类型。各个区域的植物经过精心挑选——与生物池塘和树木一起——创造了一个全季节的生物多样的动态环境。对于 Fondazione Catella 周围的停车区，我们设计了一个特别的幕状围栏，以使公园的结构不受干扰。这个公园的主要构成就是“冠顶花园”，树木和花园类型经过战略性的放置，确保了植物的长寿。

Evaluation
The park’s design positions it as an interface and connection between the surrounding different communities: the City Hall, major public transport hubs, commercial areas, busy streets, and quiet residential areas (such as “Quartiere Isola”). The regeneration of the park has added indispensable infrastructure connections, promoting smoother traffic flow and efficient pedestrian communication. A main road previously adjacent to the park now passes beneath it, significantly reducing traffic noise.
评价
公园设计使其成为周围不同社区之间的界面与连接：市政厅、重要公共交通节点、商业区、繁忙的街道和安静的居住区（如“Quartiere Isola”）。公园的再生，增加了不可或缺的基础设施连接，促进更顺畅的交通流与高效的步行沟通。之前与公园相邻的一条主路现在从公园地下穿过，大大减少了交通噪声。

With its diverse functional content—play, sports, leisure, cultural activities—the Biblioteca degli Alberi park becomes the beating heart of the area. It provides opportunities for the numerous newly developed commercial and residential buildings nearby to use it as an outdoor space for meeting and contemplation.
Biblioteca degli Alberi 公园以其多样化的功能内容——游戏、运动、休闲、文化活动——成为这个地区跳动的心脏。为附近众多新开发的商业楼和住宅楼提供机会，用作会面和思考的户外场所。

The process of preparing and realizing the park took ten years; the strategic quality of the design—employing simple elements and clearly defined spaces—has proven its resilience to adapt to different needs and adjustments without losing its strength, always maintaining the essence of the original concept.
筹备和实现公园的过程花了十年；设计的战略质量——采用简单元素和明确的空间界定——证明了它的弹性，能够适应不同的需求和调节而不失去力量，一直保持着原始概念的本质。
