Irvine Ranch, Orange County California (1963–present)
The Irvine Ranch is a 400 square kilometer ranch located on Southern California’s gold coast in Oarnge County. Originally comprised of two large Spanish land grants, the Irvine Ranch is considered today to be one of the most successful and at-tractive new towns developed since the end of WWII. SW A’s participation in the planning of the Ranch began in the early 1960s with University Park, an innovative new community lo-cated near the campus of the University of California, Irvine, which was just being constructed.
SW A prepared a plan for the Central Ranch properties in the late 1960s. Covering approximately 40% of the total area of the Ranch, SW A’s planning effort resulted in the development of a 700-hectare planned community, Woodbridge, which was built between 1975 and 1985. This community is widely recognized as one of the most original and well designed planned communities in the United States, and has won numberous awards, including the highest award from the Urban Land Institute, the leading professional organization of developers in the world.
SW A was also involved in the planning of Newport Center, a 200-hectare mixed-use retail and office development located in Newport Beach. SW A designed the landscape for the 100,000 square meter shopping center, Fashion Island, as well as for the surrounding streets in the mid-60s, and again as part of a major renovation in the mid-80s.
More recently, SW A has prepared plans for a number of the Irvine Company’s planned developments, including Shady Canyon, a 600-hectare exclusive golf course community, Quail Hill, a 600-hectare mixed-use residential community, and Woodbury, a 250-hectare high density residential com-munity. All three have won major awards for design from the

欧文庄坐落在南加州橘郡黄金海岸，面积为400平方公里。

该农场原由两个大型的西班牙政府赠予地块组成，现被公认为是二战结束以来开发最成功并最具魅力的新城镇之一。

20世纪60年代早期，SWA参与该农场的规划首先始于当时正在建设的大学园（加州大学欧文分校校园附近的一个新型社区）。

SWA在20世纪60年代晚期规划了农场中部的地产，约占该农场总面积的40%，并促成了700公顷的规划社区Woodbridge（在1975~1985年期间建造）的开发。

该社区被公认为美国最具创意且设计精美的规划社区之一，并获得无数奖项，包括美国城市土地研究院（一家全球领先的开发商专业组织）颁发的最高奖。

SWA还参与了新港中心（Newport Center）的规划，这是一处位于新港滩的200公顷的多功能零售兼办公开发区。

在20世纪60年代中期SWA为100,000平方米的购物中心时尚岛（Fashion Island）以及周边街道进行景观设计，并于80年代中期对其主要修缮工作进行规划。

Golden Gate National Recreation Area, San Francisco
Bay Area (1960s)
In the mid-1960s, the United States government hired SW A
Group to prepare a master plan for one the great treasures of open space in the world, the Golden Gate National Recre-
ation Area (GGNRA). Comprising tens of thousands of acres on the northern California coast either side of the Golden
Gate Bridge, the GGNRA was formed from a collection of
public lands belonging to various public agencies from the
Defense Department to the Interior Department. Prepara-
tion of the plan involved numerous meeting with the public
and a lengthy public review process, and the plan is the result of this collaboration. Today, the GGNRA is one of the San

Disneyland and Universal City redevelopment (1990s)Beginning in the early 1990s, SW A prepared plans for two major urban redevelopment projects in Southern Califor-nia: the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California, and the Universal City master plan in Hollywood, California. For the Disneyland Resort, SW A was consultant to both the Walt Dis-ney Company and the City of Anaheim, preparing interlock-ing, complementary plans for both the Disney properties and for the properties of surrounding landowners. SW A prepared a Specific Plan for the project, a 450-page document that included basic policy recommendations, as well as a zoning ordinance and detailed urban design guidelines. Following approval of the plan, SW A prepared detailed landscape plans for portions of the public landscape of the project, and SW A ’s guidelines have been used by the City to guide both new development and renovation of existing properties. The total planning area of the Disneyland resort is approximately 500 hectares.
SW A prepared similar plans for Universal City, a nearly 200-hectare site located in Hollywood, California. The site is a complex mix of uses that included an active motion picture Above: Master Plan for the Disneyland and Anaheim Resort areas of Anaheim, California

美国迪斯尼乐园与环球影城重建（20世纪90年代）
自20世纪90年代早期起，SWA开始为南加州的两项主要城市复兴项目进行总体规划：加州洛杉矶的迪斯尼乐园，以及加州好莱坞的环球影城。

在迪斯尼乐园项目中，SWA作为华特迪斯尼公司及洛杉矶市顾问，为迪斯尼地产及周边土地所有者的地产制定相互联系、相互补充的规划。

针对该项目，SWA提交了一份450页的规划文件包括基本政策建议、分区规则以及详细的城市设计指南。

该计划批准后，SWA对该项目的部分公共景观进行了详细的景观规划。

SWA的设计指南被该市用于指导新项目的开发以及现有地产的修复。

迪斯尼乐园的总规划面积约500公顷。

SWA为200公顷的好莱坞环球影城进行了类似规划。

该场所具有多种用途，包括有声电影制作中心、一座世界著名的主题公园、一个大型零售中心以及一幢50层的办公大厦。

China: Qingpu, Zhuhai, Hangzhou (2000s)
Starting in the late 1990s and continuing to the present, SW A has prepared plans for large-scale urban developments throughout China. The focus of this work has been to accom-modate China’s burgeoning urban population while creating memorable, world-class living environments.
Zhuhai is a city of approximately one million located across the Pearl River Delta from Hong Kong. Designated a Special Economic Zone by the Chinese government, many compa-nies have located factories and offices in the north end of the city. SW A prepared plans for three new high density mixed-use residential communities to help house the workers who will be coming to work in the factories in Zhuhai. Two of the communities are located on fill in the Pearl River, and the third is located among existing village. They range in size from 500- to 700-hectares each.
Qingpu is an historic water town located on the Yangtze River Delta 50 kilometers west of Shanghai. Anticipating growth of more than 150,000, the City conducted an invited competi-tion between SW A Group and another firm. SW A ’s plan cov-ers a 60 square kilometer area and proposed a water-oriented community that built on the natural beauty of the site and its many existing waterways.
Described in the thirteenth century by Marco Polo called it the most beautiful city in the world, Hangzhou is one of Chi-na’s oldest and most beautiful cities. As a result of its growth, the downtown area of Hangzhou has suffered from the ills of urbanization . The downtown is located adjacent to West Lake, a 6 square kilometer lake lined with historical buildings and public open space that is the treasure of the City. SW A was hired to prepare a plan that reconnected the City to the lake and solved the traffic problems that were degrading the City’s quality of life. SW A proposed a 1.5 kilometer tunnel under the lake to remove traffic from an important lakeside collector road, reclaiming the surface road for pedestrians and tourist traffic. Although the project is still being imple-
mented, the initial phase of development was awarded an Top: Framework Plan for the North Zhuhai area ner Hong Kong

中国部分规划经验（21 世纪初）
自20世纪90年代后期， SWA开始在中国范围内为大规模的城市开发建设进行规划设计。

这项工作的重点在于为中国急速增长的城市人口提供居住设施，构建令人瞩目的世界级居住环境。

中国珠海新城（21 世纪初）
珠海市位于珠江三角洲沿岸，拥有近一百万居住人口，与香港隔海相望。

经中国政府划归为经济特区后，诸多公司纷纷在该市北郊设立工厂和办事处。

为此，SWA 规划了三个高密度、多功能的居住区，为珠海市新进涌入的工作人员提供住所。

其中两个小区位于珠江新开发填海地段，另一小区则坐落于现有村落中。

小区占地面积约 500-700公顷不等。

中国杭州湖滨特色街区（21 世纪初）
杭州是中国最古老且最美丽的城市之一，13世纪的马可波罗称其为世界上最美的城市。

由于过度开发，杭州市中心承受了城市化的诸多弊病。

杭州市区靠近占地6平方公里的杭州明珠—西湖，周围环绕历史建筑与公共开放型空间。

SWA受托制定一份重新衔接杭州与西湖的规划，并解决降低该市生活品质的交通问题。

SWA建议在西湖底部开凿一条1.5公里长的隧道以取代湖边一条重要辅道的交通功能，从而将该辅道用于行人和旅客通行。

尽管该项目正在实施中，其初期开发作为亚洲最佳开发项目之一于2005年获得美国城市土地研究院（一家全球领先的开发商专业组织）的全球卓越大奖。

近期相关项目
以下五个项目是SWA在最近十年内所做的城市开发规划与城市设计作品。

有些项目正在进行，有些则已经完成规划工作，进入实施阶段。

这些项目均为大规模的复杂开发项目，而SWA在其庞大的咨询团队中均承担主要的设计咨询工作。

这些项目各有特点，包括高密度城市开发项目、低密度市郊住宅区乃至独特的城市度假胜地。

我们相信SWA的设计深度与广度无疑将成为我们参与无锡规划项目的制胜法宝。

沙特阿拉伯首都利雅得东部第二中心
沙特阿拉伯首都利雅得市拟在其五个主要辖区内各设一个城市第二中心，这是该市的主要规划项目之一。

其中东部第二中心面积最大，接近400公顷并紧靠该市东侧的法赫德国王体育场。

SWA集团通过位于利雅得的建筑规划公司DAR为利雅得开发局（ADA）进行开发规划，针对该第二中心进行城市方案的设计工作。

SWA设计的一个主要的多功能开发项目坐落在阿卜杜拉国王大道轻轨交通系统的终点站，涵盖居住、零售、办公及政府服务等多个方面。

该方案依托法赫德国王体育场居高临下、令人印象深刻的外形，设置了一个主要的开放空间以及从体育场向北延伸的活动走廊。

在该走廊中段（即将轻轨系统引入场地中央的两条斜交路线的交点处）新建一个大型的清真寺。

除了确定土地用途、密度及城市设计结构，SWA设计方案所制定的实施方法符合西方国家的最优方案和沙特阿拉伯王国的特殊需求。

As part of major planning effort, the City of Riyadh has pro-posed creating five urban subcenters within each of the City’s five major geographical subregions. The Eastern Subcenter is the largest of the five, covering an area of nearly 400 hectares immediately adjacent to King Fahd Stadium on the eastern edge of the City. Working for the Arriyadh Development Authority (ADA) through a Riyadh-based planning and en-gineering firm , DAR, SW A Group prepared an urban design concept plan for the entire site.
Located at the terminus of the King Abdullah Road light-rail transit system, SW A ’s plan proposes a major mixed-use development consisting of residential, retail, office, and
government services uses. The form of the plan builds on the commanding and striking form of King Fahd Stadium with a major open space and activity corridor that emanates north from the stadium site. A major new mosque in the middle of this corridor is the focus of two diagonal roads that also bring the light rail system into the heart of the site.
In addition to establishing the land uses, density and urban design structure of the site, SW A ’s plan proposes implementa-

SW A completing master plans for two large townships in In-dia. Each site is approximately 600 hectares and both are part of an Indian government plan to create new, hi-tech town-ships throughout the country to satisfy the need for middle-class housing in high-quality environments developed to an international standard.
The Agra Hi-Tech Township is located approximately 10 kilometers southeast of the City of Agra , home of the world famous Taj Mahal. The site is flat and is currently used for ag-riculture; several small villages are scattered around the site. SW A ’s plan is to create a new mixed-use residential commu-nity that consists of a series of smaller neighborhoods. Each neighborhood will include a full complement of various types and densities of dwellings, as well as retail, public parks and social infrastructure to satisfy Indian government community planning standards. The dominant element of the plan is a central spine open space that is a very broad, tree-lined bou-levard with public trails and other open space amenities. The form of this community responds to the numerous existing trees, many of which have been planted in rows that line the existing roads and agricultural field boundaries
Located 10 kilometers west of Varanasi, the Varanasi Hi-Tech Township is similar in many ways to the one near Agra: the site is flat agricultural land with scattered villages, and a number of existing trees dot the landscape.

印度阿格拉与瓦拉纳西规划
SWA为印度的两大城镇完成了总体规划。

每个场地的面积约为600公顷。

印度政府计划在全国范围按照国际标准开发具有高品质环境的高科技城镇，以满足中产阶级的居住需求。

以上两个城镇即属于这项政府规划的一部分。

阿格拉高科技城位于阿格拉市（该市拥有闻名于世的泰姬陵）东南约10公里处。

该地块地势平坦，目前主要为农业用地；周围散落着几个小村庄。

SWA计划建造一个由多个居住小区组成的新型多功能住宅区。

每个小区包含多种类型及密度的一整套住房、零售、公园及公共基础设施，以满足印度政府的社区规划标准。

该方案的主要元素是一个中央开放空间，设有一条宽阔的林荫大道、轨道公交系统和其他开放空间便利设施。

该社区的形态与现有树木遥相呼应，现有道路两边与农田边界树木成排。

瓦拉纳西高科技城位于瓦拉纳西以西10公里处，该城镇在诸多方面与阿格拉高科技城类似：场地为平坦的农田，周围是散落的村庄，并有许多树木点缀。

该城镇将由公园大道连接的若干多功能社区组成，但形态有所不同，具有较大的弧度，其弯曲的道路线形受附近蜿蜒流淌的恒河启发。

but the form of this community is quite different, and is in-spired by the sinuous form of the nearby Ganges River, which resembles the sweeping forms reflected in the curving road alignments.River Islands
River Islands is a 2,000-hectare planned community located approximately 100 kilometers east of San Francisco in Cali-fornia’s fast-growing Central Valley. The site is surrounded by tributaries the San Joaquin River, which provides the domi-nant theme and character for the development. To mitigate downstream flooding that plagued neighboring properties, SW A ’s plan proposes a unique system of broad levees that are set back from the existing river channel. This approach not only creates more high-value land with frontage on the river, but increases the floodway capacity of the river, thereby providing needed storm water storage.
Within the community, SW A ’s plan provides an extensive hierarchical open space system that includes neighborhood parks, trails, recreation space and other water-oriented ame-nities that reflect the site’s location and context. The plan also provides for a new town center for the City of Lathrop, which currently has none.
To attract businesses to the 120-hectare business park, the de-veloper sponsored an initiative in which local voters approved a fee of US$5,000 per dwelling to be paid upon issuance of building permits. This fee can be used to provide incentives to business in the form of infrastructure or other amenities that will attract high-quality jobs to the development. By attract-ing jobs to the region, River Islands will help mitigate traffic pressure on existing highways that are currently at or above capacity with commuters to jobs in the San Francisco Bay area.
In addition to the master plan, SW A prepared detailed urban design guidelines for the project to be administered by

美国旧金山湾区江心岛
江心岛是位于旧金山以东约100公里的一处2,000公顷的规划社区，位于加州发展迅速的中央谷内。

该地块周围环绕着圣华金河支流，该河流奠定了该开发项目的主题与基调。

为减轻困扰周边地产的下游洪水，SWA的设计是将现有河道加宽，从而形成独特的宽阔防洪堤系统。

该方案不但增加了河畔高价值土地的面积，而且提升了河流的泄洪能力并提供所需的雨水蓄积能力。

在社区内部，SWA的规划提供了一个广阔的多层次开放空间系统，包括相邻的公园、轨道交通、休闲空间以及其他体现该地块位置及环境的以水为主题的便利设施。

该方案还将为Lath-rop市构建一个新城市中心区（目前该市尚无中心区）。

为吸引企业入驻120公顷的商务园，开发商提出一项已经当地批准通过的举措，即住宅建筑许可证发出后每一份房产将补贴5,000美元，用于基础设施或其他便利设施的建设，激励企业入驻从而为该开发项目带来高水准的工作机会。

通过吸引工作机会到该地区，江心岛将有助于减轻现有高速公路上的交通压力，而目前往返旧金山湾区的上班族造成的交通流量业已达到甚至超过了道路的设计容量。

除总体规划外，SWA制订了该项目的详细城市设计指南供市政当局参考。

2004年，江心岛项目由于其创新的方案及设计品质获得太平洋沿岸建筑商会议规划大奖。

Located in Anaheim California, Disney is one of the major tourist attractions in the world, attracting nearly 12 million visitors per year. SW A prepared a detailed plan for properties owned by the Walt Disney Company, as well as a companion document under the direction of the local city government. The purpose of SW A ’s plan was to transform the area around the theme park, an area of nearly 500 hectares, from its
blighted condition into a world class urban destination resort.Working with a large team of engineers, economists and environmental specialists, SW A prepared a specific plan that included detailed urban design regulations for all public
spaces surrounding the theme park. Of particular importance was the creation of a new zoning ordinance that gave sur-rounding land owners detailed and measurable criteria for improvement of their properties. Improvements on public land, particularly along the roads within the district, included extensive new landscaping, as well as road widening and other new infrastructure. These improvements were funded by municipal bonds sold by the City and repaid by income from a transient occupancy tax on the more that 15,000 hotel rooms in the district.
SW A ’s plan was approved in 1996 and implementation of the plan began immediately. As a consultant to the Walt Disney Company, SW A prepared landscape design drawings and construction documents for most of the public land adjacent to the Walt Disney company’s property, as well as for im-provements on their land. SW A ’s guidelines for development were implemented by numerous other design consultants, too. Implementation of the improvements is nearly complete, and the transformation has been recognized with awards to SW A from both the American Planning Association and the American Society of Landscape Architects.
美国洛杉矶迪斯尼乐园与阿纳海姆区
迪斯尼坐落在加州洛杉矶阿纳海姆区，是世界闻名的旅游胜地，每年吸引接近1200万名游客。

SWA为华特迪斯尼公司所有的地产制定了一份详细规划以及供当地市政府参考的规划指南。

SWA设计的目的是将主题公园周围近500公顷的地段由当前恶劣的状态转变为一个世界级的城市度假胜地。

通过与工程师、经济学家及环境专家组成的大型团队合
作，SWA制定了一份详细的方案，包括主题公园周围所有公共空间在内的详细城市设计规范。

并特别拟定了一份新的分区规则，为周边土地所有者改善其地产提供了详细而可测量的标准。

对公共土地（尤其是该地区内道路沿线的土地）的改善包括大范围的景观设计、道路拓宽以及其他新的基础设施。

这些改善的资金来自该城市发售的市政公债，而这些公债将由该地区内15,000多个酒店房间收取的旅客住房税偿付。

SWA的方案于1996年获得批准，随即开展具体实施工作。

作为华特迪斯尼公司顾问，SWA为华特迪斯尼公司地产附近的大多数公共土地以及这些土地的改善制定了景观设计图纸和施工文件。

SWA的开发指南也供其他众多设计顾问实施。

修缮工作的实施行将竣工，而其设计效果则令SWA获得了美国规划协会及美国景观设计师协会颁发的众多奖项。
