你或許會疑惑這紅磚鎮在香港嗎? 這竟是商場?！🧱 我港的早前訪問了設計廣源邨的建築師江焯勳Joseph，了解不少關於廣源邨設計背後的理念。Joseph時任職房屋署助理署長，擁有「沙皇」的稱號，因為他在七十到八十年代設計了當時沙田區絕大部份的公共屋邨，包括龍亨邨、瀝源邨、和我港介紹過的新翠邨 (註1)。 行人優先的規劃/ 八十年代的新城鎮公屋規劃盛行社區自給自足的發展模式，身處於山腳的廣源邨也不例外。Joseph提到他認為公屋的空間不足以居民去生活，所以希望在邨內提供更多地方讓居民使用，制造「額外的居住空間」。廣源邨使用了人車分隔規劃。邨內則能提供一個安全而可步行的空間，並提供社區和商業設施。他巧妙地安排了一條快捷和一條正常路線供居民穿梭，一條設置在邨的外圍供居民直通巴士站與不同屋苑；另一條則藏在邨內不同商業建築之間。 商場 = 九座建築+三十六面牆/ 他將商場分成九座兩層高的商業建築散佈在邨的中心，靈感來自於這個地區周邊的鄉村，所以這些商業建築就像鄉村內的村屋般。為乎擋雨的實際需要，九座商業建築都由有蓋的通道串連著，但他希望居民不被上蓋限制著行走的動向，能自由地生活於大自然裡。而這些建築外則是創造了不同的公共空間，你可以看到一些老人在較隱閉的角落下棋和聊天；另一些老人聚集在中央廣場等待餐廳派中午飯(註2)；還有一些人在看似古老的噴水池旁休息。人們真的在這裡生活著。這裡亦因為規劃上的限制令廣源商場逃過了翻新加租的命運，更加關於租金的分析，一定要看 @explainerhk 最新的post! 原來商場租金按商場級數去分類!(圖4) 能打造成歐陸小鎮般不只是規劃上的考量，還有更多設計上的心思!下回再續! 記得follow @kongcept852 ! 最後如果有興趣在4月24號參觀廣源商場的朋友可以向我們報名或DM @building_narrative ! 地區: 沙田 建造年份: 1989 建築類型: 庭院式 樓層: 2 持有公司: 領展 註(一)重溫: 新翠邨商場的一片綠洲 註(二)重溫: 廣源邨的日常 An interview was conducted with the architect Joseph Kong Churk-fan, who designed Kwong Yuen Estate and most of the estates in Sha Tin district. Joseph explained the design concept, particularly of the Kwong Yuen project. 9 blocks; 36 facades/ His design approach was to position nine small blocks at the centre of the estate, responding to the surrounding villages in the hill. All blocks are linked by canopies, which shaped various type of open spaces with different spatial quality. Men are doing gambling in covered open space; the elderly are sitting at the central open space surrounding by elderly care facilities; Aged fountains can be found in some of the open space.

埋著對稱的三角玻璃頂, 創造了和諧的空間氣氛🔺 廣福商場坐落於停車場和街市的上方。 商場底層連結著休閒和靜態設施的平台，平台的面積相當大，也達成了人車分隔。 建築外牆程現代主義風格，簡單的線條，以巨大方型水泥框勾劃出店鋪窗戶，但它主要以一部主扶手電梯進入商場的內部。雖然這商場「封閉式建築」型，商場並沒有設置中央冷氣，依靠中庭兩則的三角玻璃頂改善了通風和透光。玻璃滲透的自然光與錯層的空間營造出讓想舒服地逗留的氣氛。有部份的牆身原為鋪頭大門，現用了相當亮眼的紙皮石砌成，為空間制造一點驚喜。 地區: 大埔 建造年份: 1983 建築類型: 走廊式 樓層: 4 持有公司: 領展 Twin Pitch Roofs Kwong Fuk Commerical Centre is a single block sitting above the car park and the market.

大牌檔的個性/🔥 上回提到大牌檔的歷史，但大牌檔其實有甚麼價值？價值的衡量因人而異，但對於香港的飲食文化、活化社區(Community Bonding)和旅遊業的發展上有一定的潛力。作為香港街頭飲食的代表者，大牌檔不論在環境和食物上都極具特色：見證了香港飲食發展和貢獻著香港人的日常；無驅無束的環境與生活的調劑；火水爐的高熱火焰與大鍋氣小炒；木摺檯和摺凳和那綠色巨型鐵皮箱。 活化社區(Community Bonding)/🤝 大牌檔把商鋪與街道連結成一個地方，營運成香港人生活的一部份。開放式廚房和飲食環境有效地放大了所屬公共空間（Public Space）的社交空間元素，利用其豪爽的本土風味把食客和路人帶進同一個氛圍。猶如英國街頭看見的那些戶外咖啡室，美國沙灘旁的那些酒吧，傳統大牌檔文化本質上能活化社區或成為玩樂熱點的常客。在香港，只有這裏能無驅無束地與三五知己吃一頓飯，充滿壓力的香港人正正需要這樣的調劑。 哪裏找沒有創意的人？香港政府/⚫️ 隨時代進步，舊有事物自然會被淘汰，那麼你認為大牌檔是否已經過時？其實長久以來困擾大牌檔的都是衛生問題、擠滿狭窄街道所產生的安全問題和排污問題，均是技術上的小障礙。但大牌檔的獨特個性還深深吸引著外國的朋友們，滿載著港人的集體回憶，問題只是港府或商家不懂得利用香港人的飲食文化，如能在保留其個性的前提下把排污及衛生等問題處理好便能好好地發展。#有志者事竟成 香港是美食天堂?高級Food Court?/👼 香港為何被譽為美食天堂，是全世界米芝蓮星數top3地區、有美麗的海港夜景，但香港本土飲食文化呢？香港是國際大都會但漸漸失去了自身的特色（cultural identity），成為一個沒有靈魂的容器/工具。在香港，建築方面的保育較易被大衆察覺，但各種非文質文化遺產或軟文化則尚有極大的發展空間。文化的流失亦與市民本身有關，請不要只青睞外國的好，請不要只引入外國的好，請嘗試借鑑外國的優點去好好地孕育本地既有的文化，希望我港能助你發現到這些被遺忘的寶藏。或許他日，大牌檔文化將會成為外國人的借鑑對象。 Authentic HK Dining Experience/🇭🇰 What is the value of Dai Pai Dong? As a representative of street food in Hong Kong, Dai Pai Dong is distinctive in terms of environment and food. Iconically, it is a giant green metal box and serve foods cooked by Kerosene Stove, strong firepower. Such firepower injects “Wok Hei” into every dish, each dish can be made in a “hot” wink with a balanced dry body and delicious charred taste. By the way, remember to order a bottle of Blue Girl, it is a perfect pairing with food full of “Wok Hei” . In addition, as traditional Dai Pai Dong is integrated into the public street to operate and become part of Hong Kong, its open-air kitchen and dining area effectively amplify the social space element of the public space. It uses its rich local flavour to bring diners and passersby into the same atmosphere. Similar to the outdoor cafes on the streets of the UK, the bars beside the beach in the US, the traditional Dai Pai Dong culture can definitely revitalize the community or even become a famous spot. Its must be more fascinating than restaurants that you cannot even speak up freely with your friends. Dai Pai Dong is yet to be rescued or fully utilised. #我港 #kongcept #我港生活 #大牌檔 #daipaidong #香港文化
