A Zero-Carbon Park Combining Science Popularization and Leisure

Shenzhen: Zero-Carbon Park

Company: AUBE Design

The Shenzhen's first zero-carbon science popularization theme park and zero-carbon living pavilion, built by AUBE Design, has been completed and put into operation. The park currently basically achieves zero carbon emissions and is comprehensively supporting "low-carbon Pingdi."

In the overall design of the park, the designers implemented six major low-carbon design strategies, which can reduce carbon emissions by about 3,700 tons annually for the park; by reducing carbon emissions from the extraction, transportation, and processing of new materials, and extending the life cycle of recycled materials, approximately 103 tons of carbon emissions can be saved during construction; the use of photovoltaic components can effectively reduce carbon dioxide emissions by more than 65 tons annually, comprehensively supporting the green and low-carbon development of Pingdi Street, Longgang District.

The designers used natural ecology as the basis, striving for minimal intervention in the natural mountain body, building according to the terrain to achieve earthwork balance. At the same time, six major strategies were proposed: LID low-impact development, low-carbon plant design, low-carbon process materials, low-carbon energy utilization, sponge city design, and low-carbon science popularization operation. These strategies integrate people, animals and plants, and the natural environment to create a "zero-carbon" theme park integrated into the native environment. The park includes science popularization areas such as a barefoot park, a waterfront stream section, and an ecological square display area. Through four sections—"Water and Wind Valley," "Photovoltaic Hill," "Earth and Stone Hill," and "Wood Hill"—and connected by the main park road, a zero-carbon science popularization path is created, offering interesting activity nodes.

The zero-carbon living pavilion and the park management service center are located in the center of the park and near the entrance, respectively. The buildings use a centralized layout to reduce the footprint and use an earth-covered building form to conceal the volume, avoiding the large area of lychee grove on the site and reducing human interference with the natural environment. The spatial form draws on the passive design principles of traditional Lingnan architecture. The roof, shaped like a斗笠 (douli, a traditional Chinese hat), spirals upwards separately from the main building, creating a natural three-tiered space with significant shading while forming an open convective space. The light-transmitting atrium further softens the light environment, accelerates air circulation, and alleviates the heat island effect.
