项目旨在为由 David Chipperfield Architects 设计的塞尔福里奇百货公司的新入口创造一个有吸引力的城市环境。项目开发了街道的新体验，更新范围涵盖了街道照明、铺设、家具、行人舒适度和交通的方面。

Duke Street public realm project aims at creating an attractive urban environment for the new entrance of Selfridges department store designed by David Chipperfield Architects. It includes the redevelopment of the overall streetscape experience, including street lighting, paving, furniture, pedestrian comfort and traffic.

设计师通过对人行道加宽与翻新，使得场地形成了广场的概念，这是项目的一个焦点，包括四棵珍贵大树和两个雕塑元素，一个大理石长凳和一个喷泉。这些由意大利大理石制成的雕塑元素位于新商店入口处，为游客提供休息、聚会和补充水分的空间，在一个大多数公共饮水机已经消失的城市里，这个饮水机为游客、居民提供了一个愉快的机会来补充水分的同时，减少了塑料瓶的泛滥。

Together with the wider and renewed pavements, we developed the idea of a plaza, a focus point in front of the new entrance, including four precious feature trees as well as two sculptural elements, a marble bench and a fountain.Located in front of the new store entrance, these sculptural elements made of Italian marble provide a place to rest, meet and rehydrate. In a city where most public drinking fountains have disappeared, the fountainoffers visitors, inhabitants and employees of the district apleasurable opportunitytorefill their water bottles and reduce plastic bottles proliferation.

雕刻的大理石长椅专为不同的人服务，它提供四种不同大小和形状的座位。在如此密集的城市环境中，种植的可能性极其有限，长凳和喷泉成为可能通过它们的形状和物质性来体现更广泛景观的元素。选择这种具有强烈地质运动的富有表现力的绿白大理石是一种唤起水、岩石、地形和山脉的方式。我们使用的大理石非常致密，大约2500万年前在阿普安阿尔卑斯山(托斯卡纳)形成，在那里我们选择了完美的大理石块，然后将其雕刻成长凳和喷泉。

The sculptural marble bench is dedicated to different people; it offers four different sizes and shapes of seats. The possibility of planting being extremely limited in such a dense urban environment, the bench and fountain became elements which could potentially crystallise the idea of a wider landscape through their shape and materiality. Choosing this expressive green and white marble with strong geological movements was a way to evoke water, rocks, topography, mountains. The marble we used (Verde Luana) is extremely dense and was formed around 25 million years ago in the Apuan Alps (Toscana) where we went to choose the perfect marble block that we would then carve to create the bench and fountain.

包括定制的树栅，高质量材质的树坑已经杂在项目中使用，旨在异常杂乱的地下环境中优化树木的生长，同时考虑到场地的不同限制条件，选择了不同的树种。

High performance tree pit details including custom made tree grilles have been developed to optimise tree growth in an exceptionally cluttered underground environment. Tree species have been selected considering the different constraints of the site.

在与商场的材料与色调保持一致的同时，项目在梅菲尔的公共领域创造一个独一无二的体验，提高了伦敦交通与公共空间的质量。

While generally keeping in line with Westminster ‘s palette of materials and general ethos, the project aims at creating an original and unique moment in Mayfair‘s public realm and increase the quality of one of London‘s busiest urban environment.
