奧蘭珠校區公園旨在成為市中心的活力源泉，作為促進地區發展的催化劑，吸引奧蘭珠和阿爾伯克基都市區的居民前來市中心參觀，同時為常來市中心游玩、工作和學習的群眾提供便利設施。建筑師通過創建一個多用途的地標性戶外聚會空間，來打造一處活動中心，校區公園每天都吸引著學生和教職工前來散步、鍛煉、學習，或者只是欣賞廣闊景色和享受戶外活動。

Rio Rancho Campus Park is designed to be the dynamic heart of City Center, a catalyst for further development in the area, a draw for residents of Rio Rancho and the rest of the Albuquerque Metropolitan Area to visit City Center, and an amenity that serves the many people who work, learn, and otherwise visit City Center regularly. The project’s scope was to create a signature multi-purpose, accessible outdoor gathering space as an activity hub and destination. On a daily basis, Campus Park draws area students and employees who wish to walk, exercise, study, take in the expansive views, and enjoy the outdoors.



沙漠綠洲的設計理念源于該地區的自然特征。比如奧蘭珠的臺地、懸崖等地形，格蘭德河和博斯克河兩側的綠洲，極具代表性的廣闊天空，以及周圍山脈的全景。設計方案在場地的原有地形上添加現代設計語言元素，創造了俯瞰點、自然圓形劇場、草坪露臺和樹叢低地。

The design concept, desert oasis, came from the natural character of the region. Natural character included the mesas and escarpments, the relative oasis of the Rio Grande River and bosque, the significance of the large open skies, and the sweeping views of surrounding mountain ranges. Campus Park acts as an oasis within the arid environment of the desert. The design takes advantage of the site’s significant topography and adds to it, creating overlooks, a natural amphitheater, terrace lawns, and bosque lowlands, all in a contemporary design language.



公園利用地形創建一系列戶外“房間”，避免惡劣環境條件影響使用者�！胺块g”從狹小、私密的讀書角和邊緣延伸到可容納數千人的大型公共聚集區。幾個大草坪被環形路徑和輕微地形變化切割，從而使草坪在某個角度看上去像是一塊空地，而另一角度看起來就像梯田。

The park is designed to use topography to create a series of outdoor rooms that protect users from harsh environmental conditions. The rooms flow from small, intimate reading rooms and nooks to sizeable public gathering areas accommodating several thousand people. Several large lawns are divided by circulation paths and subtle topographic variations that allow the lawns to be viewed as a single field from one direction and multiple terraces from another.





公園的標志性建筑，叫做“天空之屋（Sky Room）”，這是一個用于大型活動和表演的空間。天空之屋的屋頂由網鋼制成，表面銹蝕，內部光滑，屋頂上點綴著一個看向天空的圓形觀景窗。如果觀眾坐在結構里面，該空間可以用于小型活動，而針對大型活動，觀眾可以坐在后面斜坡上的圓形劇場露臺，或者前面向北延伸的草坪露臺。

An iconic architectural feature of the park is the Sky Room, a large event and performance space. Constructed of mesh steel with a rusted finish on the outside and a smooth finish on the inside, the Sky Room roof is punctuated with a round viewing portal to the sky. The space can serve for small events with the audience seated under the structure or for large events with the audience seated either in the amphitheater terrace set into the slope behind it, or on the lawn terraces spread out before it to the north.



場地設計考慮了許多正面收益，尤其是在雨水方面。公園一開始就被設計成一塊雨水滯留池，幾乎完全由透水表面組成。場地內的人行道和廣場幾乎沒有硬質鋪裝，而是由壓實的碎料、原生景觀植物、原生野花花園和露臺草坪組成的小路。由于透水材料的表面積大，公園可以當即處理所有雨水，不再需要額外的雨水系統排放，場地外的雨水也可以接收滲透到公園中，轉移到下游的雨水池。

The site was designed with many beneficial impacts in mind, especially in terms of stormwater. Originally designed as a stormwater detention pond, the park comprises almost entirely of pervious surfaces. There are few paved walkways and plazas, but instead, paths made of compacted crusher fines, gathering areas, native landscape plantings, a native wildflower garden, and terrace lawns. As a result of the large surface areas of pervious materials, the park can handle all of its stormwater on-site without discharging any additional water into the stormwater system and also accepts significant stormwater volumes from off-site, all of which can percolate into the park to transfer through to an adjacent stormwater basin downstream.
