啟業邨商場 啟業主場！環環相扣的建築群保護著空曠的中央廣場 一目了然的視線/ 啟業邨的規劃是將社區及商業空間都佈置在邨裡的中心。 而當你到達廣場中心觀察四周，便會覺得其格局是清晰易明的。 底層的商鋪圍繞著中央廣場，上層便是社區中心。而商場、街市、停車場與商鋪和社區中心井井有條地環環相扣。一條樓梯從停車場外在廣場中心冒出，並通過清晰的標示設計引領你到剛翻好的「啟業主場」。中央廣場的安全感來自被包圍的建築群，但廣場只提供一些長凳和景觀設計，因此多只吸引到老人家和附近上班的人來休息。整體來說空間之間連結得很有條理，只欠公共空間用途的多樣性。 地區: 九龍灣 建造年份: 1981 建築類型: 庭院式 樓層: 1 持有公司: 民坊 Observable experience/ In Kai Yip Estate, all community and commercial programmes are clearly positioned at the centre of the estate. When you arrive at the open space, you will easily indicate that a block of shopping centre connects all street stores at the ground floor that sitting under the housing blocks and community services at the upper level are connected by a covered walkway and a community centre. The extended staircase pops up from the car park and guides you from the ground to the rooftop sports court through clear architectural form and signage. The open space is secured by housing blocks, community centre and car park block. Since there are only some benches and landscape provided, the major occupants are elderly who were resting and workers were having their quick lunch and break. All programmes are well connected, but lacking diversity for the inhabit in open space.

《我港 Kongcept》批鬥大會 2021 【7/8 社區：博康的花園商場 @kongcept852】 關於 #我港社區 #community_kongcept 💬// 我港希望讓你更關注你的社區。社區透過回憶和故事無形地連繫著我們，當中埋藏了很多未被發掘的寶藏。// 博康的花園商場，帶你回到百年前的歐洲購物走廊/ 「在這裡，我看到不同世代的共存，清楚地顯示了公屋及其商場的重要性。 在博康，幾代居民靠著無形的力量去交融。 孩子們放學後經過、 老人則通常被推到一旁，圍著坐去打發時間。」- Kris Provoost 博康邨明確定義了既寬敞通風的公共空間，橫跨中軸線的聚碳酸酯(polycarbonate)拱頂，一大一細地輕輕伏在兩邊商鋪頂，視線帶領你看到一排商鋪招井井有條地包圍整個商場，充滿著源起於歐洲的「走廊」( arcade) 設計味道，例如位於巴黎 La Galerie Vivenne (1823) 。而「走廊」源自於當時的歐洲經濟蓬勃，為了回應當時購物需求，而在街與街之間興建這種玻璃頂「走廊」，供商鋪展示商品，讓市民「有瓦遮頭」地購物。 博康以「走廊」設計為基礎，將其中一邊商鋪調高半層，在中庭設置樓梯接駁兩邊，這除了減少老人家行樓梯的級數，亦創造十分有趣的公共空間。錯層設計令居民視線變得更開揚，大量長凳分散在中庭，讓你除了跟隨著商場的走廊前行，亦能坐下好好感受空間滲透著陽光與居民間的互動。 想看更多的屋邨攝影作品，記得follow 建築攝影師 @kris.provoost ! 地區: 沙田 建造年份: 1982 屋邨商場類型:走廊型 樓層: 3 持有公司: 房署 PS: 請繼續守護你可以守護的，不要讓香港失去更多 ‘’ Seeing the coexistence of different generations, shows clearly the importance of public housing estates and its retail centres. At Pok Hong, the generations mingle by ‘force’. Kids pass through when school is out. ‘’ - Kris Provoost Pok Hong clearly defines a spacious and ventilated public space. The polycarbonate vaults across the central axis, one larger and one smaller, gently lie on the roofs of the shops on both sides, and the line of sight leads you to see rows of shop fronts. It embodies the scene of "arcade" design originating from Europe, such as La Galerie Vivenne (1823) in Paris. In order to respond to the shopping needs during the industrial revolution, this kind of glazed arcade was built between the street and the shops were used to display goods for the public. One side of floor levels is raised by half a storey, and stairs sit in the atrium to connect the two sides. This not only reduces the number of stairs for the elderly, but also creates an engaging public space.Please take your time to feel the space permeated by the sunlight and the interaction between the residents.

PMQ將宿舍變成文創中心或是大館將監獄變成博物館，但不是所有活化項目都能複制的，當然在香港，成本效益是很重要的考量，大館算是相對成功的背後是因為有賽馬會支撐開支。那「#中環街市」又如何能達到商業、保育及社會發展之間的平衡? 📽從創先河到被迫停業的中環街市/ 中環街市建於1850年，於1938重建成現在具「包浩斯風格」的現代主義建築，因「形式源於功能」，其外觀與開放式空間創當時街市設計的先河。中環街市曾經亦是全東南亞最大的肉類市場。可惜它身處中環商業核心地帶，未能跟隨城市發展的步伐，終於在2003年停止營業。至今成為「新假期」標題中的「歐式日光庭園+舊建築活化打卡位+過百檔本地文青小店/酒吧餐廳/掃街小食」。 📽香港的街市文化/ 街市對於香港人除了是個買新鮮貨的好地方，還是連繫彼此的重要社區脈絡。中環街市正是百年間半山與中上環居民的聚腳點。而它從1842年經歷了三次的重建，承傳到現在的是它在社區發揮的功能及街市文化，建築的設計亦呼應著這功能。街市檔戶世代相傳，例如有魚販從1939年開業，後由子承父業，營運至街市的最後一天。 現在，讓我們來看看中環街市的活化成果。結業前的101個檔口只有13個能回到「街市」，再經過18年的空窗期，世代相傳的檔口早以被迫終斷。取而代之的是咖啡店、文創小店、餐廳、超市。加上被美化的水磨石檔口和樓梯；把街市兩邊分隔開的玻璃，「中環街市」的影子蕩然無存。 📽如何脫離「港式保育」?/ 如以「文化」和「社區」角度去量度活化的結果，那我們要思考的是「中環街市如何成為載體去承傳過往的文化價值或創造新的文化價值。」第一步當然是超越「得返個殼」的建築層面保育，但只是保留街市的功能不合乎這時代的社會需要，過度商業化的設計與營運難為孕育新的文化價值。大館算是平衡到兩者的利益，卻需要龐大資源去支撐。 而在「社區層面」來看，如果以中環街市為起點向上走兩條街，已經是士丹利街的大牌檔，結志街的蘭芳園，嘉咸街的街市和香港最舊的唐樓永和號。中環街市又能否與這些地方產生關係？它能夠成為半山和商業區社區橋樑？ 的確保育活化的課題複雜，值得大家思考。 保育案例參考: - #中環立法會大樓，原為高等法院 - #香港大學堂，原為杜格拉斯堡(住宅)、傳道會 - #香港視覺藝術中心，原為英軍宿舍 保育文章參考: - 活化與保育/ 許焯權

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. It connects to a podium with recreational and static facilities in a similar footprint area. The main part of a commercial centre is linked only by a key escalator.

👁迷失的視線，欣賞舊徙置大廈的建築美學🏢 南山邨商場由兩座徙置大廈形住宅伸延的平台包圍而成。平台主要則以兩層街市所組成，商鋪、餐廳則散在四周。相比起一般「綜合平台型」商場都具有十分空擴開放空間，這商場的開放空間則滿佈裡街市的檔口，但也因而創造了不規則的行走動線，緊接著周邊連接各住宅的通道。商場的橫向層次相對清晰，由三個主樓梯連接。樓梯最終通向開放的運動場，與下方街市繁忙緊密的氣氛成了強烈對比。運動場飽覽三邊住宅大廈的走廊景觀，當然對於居民來說可能久缺私隱度。但因大廈重複性和對稱性畫面令這運動場變成了打卡熱點，大家欣賞建築美學的同時，記得將音量收細! 商場各層的連接並不是明顯，但因而塑造了每層不一樣的性格和氣氛。 地區: 石硤尾 建造年份: 1977 建築類型: 綜合平台 樓層: 3 持有公司: 房屋署 Unobservable/ Nam Shan Shopping Centre is formed by two podium levels of the market, surrounded podium retail stores at slab housing blocks. Although there is barely an open space in the podium level, the open planned market space creates free flows of circulation, interacting with the walkways towards different housing blocks. The horizontal hierarchy of the shopping centre is relatively clear, connected by three main staircases. On the contrary to the busy market podium, the stairs will eventually bring to an open sport court with recreational facilities at the rooftop. Surrounding by the stretching corridors of slab housing blocks, you can see the moments taking places in the neighbourhood. The rooftop sports count becomes a trending hotspot for photo taking. Although there is a lack of visual connection between different levels, it creates a non-disturbed and open ground for all to use.
