胜利广场位于布拉格市中心一个非常受欢迎的居住区之中，区域内精致餐饮发展繁华，拥有宜人的绿色街道，大学校园和本地的商店和企业。胜利广场是游客从机场来到布拉格的首先抵达的城市公共空间之一。针对广场空间的设计竞赛将成为布拉格市重塑片区空间品质、改变城市形象的重大机遇。

Victory Square is located in the centre of Prague - in a popular residential district with booming gourmet scene, calm green streets, universities and local shops and enterprises. The square is one of the first public spaces that visitors - coming to Prague from the airport - might encounter. By redesigning the space the City of Prague have a great opportunity to reshape a district, and alter the image of the city as a whole.

目前，广场空间主要作为交通基础设施的一部分。因此，广场的传统功能被孤立及忽视。广场中央空间无法通过慢行交通抵达，被交通设施分割的广场空间给人以巨大、空旷和孤立隔绝的感觉。随着交通信号灯的利用，周边街道的交通流量和功能得到了很大的改善，交通设施所占用的总空间被最小化。而重新回收利用的广场中央空间则被重新与广场的边缘联系起来。

Currently, the space is dominated by traffic infrastructure. As a result, the traditional functions of the square are pushed to its edges. The centre is inaccessible to foot traffic and makes the Victory Square feel vast, empty and isolated. With the implementation of traffic light signalling the flow and function of traffic is greatly improved and the overall space for traffic is minimised. The reclaimed space is then reconnected to the square’s edges.

在不削弱广场原本的几何结构的情况下，整个空间被一圈弧形的树阵所包围。带有微妙、透明树冠的皂荚树通过规则的网格系统进行平面组织，增强了广场主轴的对称性。树阵网格将分割的广场空间结合起来，形成一个连贯的整体，并建立了一个进入城市的绿色门户。通过将树网格稍微向西移动，方案创建了多样的广场边缘形式。这种转变使得广场边上的空间更加多元和灵活。地面铺有坚固的花岗岩铺路板，形成坚固而连续的城市地毯。地面不同的阴影和材质能够唤起人们对布拉格典型鹅卵石人行道和广场空间工艺与质地的共鸣。花岗岩连接着树木，使空间统一，但同时也被碎石区和草坪区所分割，从而增加了可渗透性广场空间的面积。

Without weakening the square’s formal geometry, the entire space is embraced by a circular cluster of trees. The Gleditsia trees with subtle, transparent canopies are organised through a regular grid, enhancing the symmetry of the square’s main axis. The tree grid unites the divided segments, forming a coherent whole and establishes a green gateway into the city. A diversity of edge conditions are created by shifting the tree grid slightly towards the west. The shift allows for more spatial variety and flexibility along the square’s edges. The ground is paved with sturdy granite pavers, forming a robust and continuous urban carpet. The varying shades and materiality reminds visitors of the craftsmanship and textures of Prague’s cobblestone sidewalks and squares. The granite joins the trees in uniting the space, but is broken down by areas of gravel and grass to add opportunities for water permeability along the surface.

广场上散布着四个社交功能锚点：景观亭、游乐场、座椅区与市场区。他们激活了广场空间并成为定位地标。家具的明亮色彩和雕塑品质打造了突出的空间个性。大型的广场元素由一系列简单的街道家具所支撑，确保能够满足人们的各种活动需求。树木植栽、铺装、社交锚点共同整合了曾经分隔的广场空间。该方案的设计愿景尊重了广场的历史背景，同时重新定义了胜利广场的城市空间，创造一个面向所有居民与游客的、令人兴奋的社会公共空间。

Four social anchor points are distributed across the square - the pavilion, playground, bench and market. They activate the space and act as orienting landmarks for visitors. The bright colours and sculptural qualities of the furniture provide a strong identity to the square. The large elements are supported by a collection of simpler furniture that ensures people’s needs are met over the whole surface. Together the trees, paving, social anchor points unify the once divided square. The vision respects the historical context of the square, while reclaiming space to create an exciting social meeting place for all.
