位于徐汇滨江的“西岸漩心”（West Bund Orbit），是西岸金融城公共艺术水岸的首个艺术时尚新地标，也是辐射黄埔滨江两岸的重要观景点。景观设计与建筑融合，由前场“许愿漩”落客区到周边艺术“水篱”公园、环绕建筑而上的“漩花阶”、以及可以眺望黄埔江的“星空眼”360度屋顶花园组成，成为黄埔江边独特的公共艺术户外展示平台，助力西岸建设成为亚洲最美艺术长廊。

The “West Bund Orbit” is the first art and fashion landmark on the public art waterfront of the West Bund Financial City and an important viewing point overlooking both sides of the Huangpu River. The landscape design seamlessly integrates with the architecture, comprising the front “Orbit Wishl” drop-off area, surrounding artistic “Water Heage”green parks, the “Orbit Flowerring Steps” that ascend around the building, and the “Starry Eye” 360-degree rooftop garden with views of the Huangpu River. It has become a unique outdoor public art display platform by the Huangpu River, contributing to the development of the West Bund into one of Asia’s most beautiful art corridors.

趁“热”
Moment Seizing

徐汇滨江的“西岸漩心”（West Bund Orbit）从去年冬建成至今已逾半年，承载了各种顶级活动和盛宴秀场，是西岸金融城公共艺术水岸的首个艺术时尚新地标。
作为漩心项目的景观设计团队，我们熬过寒冬梅雨、避开包场活动补植修砖、待到草木花开。终于可以简单记录一下这一段如漩如浪的创作过程。建成时的热度没早蹭，就趁个炎炎夏日吧。

The “West Bund Orbit” at Xuhui Riverside has been standing for over six months since its completion last winter, hosting various top-tier events and grand shows. It is the first new art and fashion landmark on the public art waterfront of the West Bund Financial City.
As the landscape design team for the Orbit project, we braved the cold winter and rainy season, avoided replants and brick repairs during exclusive events, and waited for the flowers and plants to bloom. Finally, we can simply document this whirling and wave-like creative process.
Since we missed the initial excitement at completion, let’s seize this scorching summer.

在野：英式花园，植物猎人
Wild Exploration：English Garden, Plant Hunter

起初，我们并不知道建筑的概念，刚开始也只是对植物进行概念策划，围绕当时的命题“英式花园”，我们将建筑空间和英式花园的场景做了映射，划分了5大植物空间主题：一层“木秀之林”、二层“繁花之野”、三层“茂叶之森”、四层“银芒之滨”、五层“时空之拱”。
“英式花园”丰富繁茂的一个特点在于通过“植物猎人”采集天下奇花异草进行收藏展示，使得花展本身往往又紧密结合当时最先进最酷炫的养护技术和建筑“容器”。
于是在徐家汇这个中西方文化碰撞的热土上，我们把建筑当作森林中的猎人容器，在双螺旋坡道上沿线的景观种植划分为”中国本土出口的植物品种“和”西方舶来植物品种“，最后在屋顶花园“时空相聚”。
因在后续运营和展览中需要不断更换花境而让故事本身显得不够直观，并且需要和建筑概念更紧密结合，我们开始了新的探索。但花园生境的场景得已延续。

At first, we didn’t know the concept of the building and only began conceptual planning for the plants around the theme of the “English Garden.” We mapped the building space to the scenes of an English garden, dividing it into five major plant-themed areas: “Wooded Grove” on the first floor, “Blossoming Wilds” on the second floor, “Leafy Forest” on the third floor, “Silver Shore” on the fourth floor, and “Arch of Time and Space” on the fifth floor.
The richness and abundance of the “English Garden” are characterized by the “plant hunters” collecting rare and exotic plants worldwide for display. These flower shows were often closely integrated with the most advanced and cool maintenance techniques and architectural “containers” of their time.
Therefore, in Xujiahui, a melting pot of Eastern and Western cultures, we treated the building as a hunter’s container in the forest. Along the double-helix ramp, the landscape planting was divided into “Chinese native export plant varieties” and “Western imported plant varieties,” finally converging at the rooftop garden “Time and Space Reunion.”
Due to the need for continuous flower border replacement in subsequent operations and exhibitions, making the story less intuitive and requiring closer integration with the building concept, we embarked on new explorations. However, the garden habitat’s scene has been preserved.

行空：种子的星际旅行
Cosmos Roaming: The Interstellar Journey of Seeds

当我们正式着手整体景观方案时，得知建筑的初始概念源于“龙美盛开的樱花”。恰逢建筑刚完成立面灯光调试，呈现出的“星轨”效果让所有人浮想联翩。于是我们进一步构想：果壳中的宇宙——种子的星际旅行。
14年前赫工（Heatherwick）在上海世博会的“种子圣殿”英国馆成为了无数人心中的记忆，虽然那只是一个“暂放的建筑”，但只要经过“脑补”，彷佛就如同为了今天在对岸的徐汇滨江“绽放”。

When we officially began the overall landscape plan, we learned that the initial concept of the building was inspired by the “blooming cherry of Long Museum”. Coinciding with the completion of the building’s facade lighting adjustment, the “star trail” effect sparked everyone’s imagination. Thus, we further conceived: Universe in a Nutshell – The Interstellar Journey of Seeds.
Fourteen years ago, Heatherwick’s “Seed Museum” at the UK Pavilion of the Shanghai World Expo became a cherished memory for countless people. Though it was a “temporary building,” with some imagination, it seems like it “bloomed” today on the opposite shore at Xuhui Riverside.

在如同“星轨”盘绕的建筑立面之下，我们希望为“种子“策划一场穿越时空的星际旅行传承这段记忆，希望能搜罗或重铸使用当年“种子博物馆”的建筑构件，在主入口落客区做一个“种子星云”艺术装置，并且在漂浮在双螺旋坡道的种植池里做为氛围灯和科普展示，成为夜空星轨上遨游的“种子旅行仓”。
因为无法搜罗构件，于是“种子的旅行仓”搁浅。但星轨Orbit的概念得已延续。

Under the “star trail” winding building facade, we hoped to plan an interstellar journey through time and space for the “seeds” to carry on this memory. We aimed to collect or recreate components from the “Seed Museum” to create a “Seed Nebula” art installation at the main entrance drop-off area. This would also serve as ambient lighting and scientific display in the planting beds along the floating double-helix ramp, becoming “seed travel pods” traversing the night sky star trail.
Due to the inability to collect the components, the “seed travel pods” project was shelved. However, the star trail Orbit concept continues.

定心：西岸漩心
River Calming：West Bund Orbit

随着建筑“Orbit”名称的定案和室内水漩涡方案的揭晓。原本仅为临时使用的落客区将永久保留，业主希望能有一个接得住对面龙美的酒店式落客。于是，一个有H2O含量的漩涡水景前场成为了焦点空间。

With the finalization of the building’s name “Orbit” and the unveiling of the interior water vortex design, what was initially intended as a temporary drop-off area will now be permanently retained. The owner hopes for a hotel-style drop-off area that can complement the Long Museum across the street. Thus, a vortex water feature with H2O elements in the foreground has become the focal space.

许愿漩
Orbit Wish

建筑室内大咖们通过设计创意和思想高度描绘”水理漩洑，鹏风翱翔“。我们同时也发现市民更为普遍、亲切的将其称之“西岸小蛋糕”。于是我们也趣称这个前场水景为“许愿漩”——吃蛋糕前许个愿。
经过多轮形态推演，最终采用了与建筑室内相同的上漩势。水流从中心涌出，沿着与建筑星轨呼应的水道顺势而为；抛光的石材切面把建筑打散成无数虚像，在星光灯的呼吸间中流淌。
通过流体模拟后进行最终的石材CNC雕刻。同时用3D打印指导施工拼装落地。

Renowned interior designers depicted “Whirling Water, Soaring Phoenix” through creative and visionary designs. Meanwhile, we noticed that citizens affectionately refer to it as the “West Bund Cake.” Thus, we whimsically named this front water feature the “Wishing Swirl”—make a wish before having cake.
After multiple rounds of form evolution, we finally adopted an upward swirling design that mirrors the building’s interior. Water flows from the center, following a path that echoes the building’s star trail; polished stone surfaces scatter the building into countless virtual images, flowing in the pulsating starlight.
The final stone CNC carving was completed following fluid simulations, and the construction and assembly were guided by 3D printing.

水篱 “吨吨吨”
Water Hedge “Dun Dun Dun”

为了强化”漩心“，我们和业主以及花境顾问共创了抽象的”Water hedge”——“艺术水篱”。并且通过可塑性的修剪绿篱模拟出水滴的“Metaball融球”特性，实现水流融合、推攘、滚滚汇聚的动态感。
水滴”融球“特性：
“融球”是水滴的一种球形化力场，其密度值可被临近的水滴力场增加形成位移特性——绕着融球自适应的改变形状。当密度场达到特定阈值，会形成有机曲面张力形成融球之间的桥接。每个融球会相互扩展，彼此影响。

To enhance the “Orbit,” we collaborated with the owner and a flower border consultant to create the abstract “Water Hedge”—an “artistic water hedge.” By sculpting the green hedge, we simulated the “Metaball” properties of water droplets, achieving a dynamic sense of water flow merging, pushing, and rolling together.
Water Droplet “Metaball” Properties:
“Metaball” is a force field that gives water droplets their spherical shape. The density value of a Metaball can be increased by the force fields of nearby droplets, resulting in displacement properties—adapting and changing shape around the Metaball. When the density field reaches a specific threshold, it forms bridges of organic surface tension between Metaballs. Each Metaball expands and influences one another.

漩花阶
Orbit Flowering Stairs

就像是“漩心小蛋糕”分层“bia— ji—”出来的“奶油”。漩花阶是建筑景观一体化中重要的引导空间、灰空间、缓冲平台空间和微气候绿色空间。这里也是整个景观界面中最复杂的边界：需处理与台阶、幕墙结构的衔接；研究建筑檐口滴水宽度、覆土荷载与排水等技术难点。以及每一层不同规格的种植池与栏杆曲度的和谐对应。

It’s like the “swirl cake” with layers of “bia—ji—” cream. The spiral flower steps are a crucial guiding space, gray space, buffer platform space, and microclimate green space in the integration of architecture and landscape.
This area also represents the most complex boundary of the entire landscape interface: it requires addressing the connections with steps and curtain wall structures; studying technical challenges such as the eaves drip width, soil load, and drainage; and ensuring the harmonious correspondence of planting beds and railing curves on each layer.

星空眼
Starry Watch

“星空眼”是一个可眺望黄浦江的360度屋顶花园，一个江边的空中公共艺术展示平台。景观结合两个建筑拱门形成眺望平台，四个非线花池进一步分形，围绕出一个500平米的开敞草坪，为艺展和宴会活动提供可能。
一个魔纹“绿瞳”凝视星空，给上海这座“魔都”增加一丝赛博感。“星空眼”屋顶花园与“许愿漩”水景高下相倾，形成黄埔江水与天空之间的视觉与精神的连接。

“Starry Eye” is a 360-degree rooftop garden offering a panoramic view of the Huangpu River, serving as an aerial public art display platform by the riverside. The landscape integrates with two architectural arches to form an observation platform, with four non-linear flower beds further fractalizing to create a 500-square-meter open lawn, making it suitable for art exhibitions and banquet events.
A magical “green pupil” gazes at the starry sky, adding a touch of cybernetic feel to Shanghai, the “Magic City.” The “Starry Eye” rooftop garden and the “Orbit Wish” water feature form a visual and spiritual connection between the Huangpu River and the sky.
