流實驗專案。 它基於「數位化實踐」暑期工作坊
的教學成果,在數位化平臺下整合材料性能、設計
形態和加工方式的一次設計建造嘗試。這個足尺
度的構築物得到了香港和內地多家贊助公司及企
業的支援。
「深藍」的目的是通過把平淡無奇的回收材
料轉變為新穎愉悅的臨時棚亭，提升公眾的環保
意識；傳播設計和製造的數位化應用；并提升香
港成為國際設計創意大都會之一。
「深藍」選取了回收的高密度藍色塑膠桶，
它既是表面的圍合材料，塑造特有的質感和效果;
又是結構的連接支撐構件。 每一個桶都會根據和
它周邊連接桶的重疊面的尺寸，決定連接孔的位
置和數控切割「開花」的程度，使其從外面看仿
佛一朵朵的藍色玫瑰，徹底改變人們對於原有桶
的形態認知，同時保留力學性能最關鍵的桶底。
整個設計明晰的過程，包括自動生成加工所需的
G-Code，只有在數位化參數建模和程式設計運
算的平臺下才能得以實現。建造的過程也根據這
種材料的特點，結合臨時豎杆支撐和地面組裝、
整體旋轉對位的方式，完成主體結構拱的組裝建
造。
「深藍」首先在香港大學的大學街展示一個
月,之後移送到香港荃灣的愉景新城商場,作為公眾
活動的藝術舞臺長時間使用。
The Deep Blue is a Knowledge Exchange projectbased on the outcomes of the Digital Practice InternationalSummer Program at Department of Architecture,The University of Hong Kong (HKU). Led by professors ofHKU, this project integrated materialization with digitalcomputation and fabrication. It attracted sponsors fromlocal architectural and engineering companies, as wellas manufacturers and material suppliers.The main objectives are to raise envrionmentalawareness by transforming mundane recycled materialsinto an inspiring structure, to explore digital designand making with ordinarory fabrication methods in PRDChina, and to promote Hong Kong as one of the worldclasscities for design innovation.The design team synthesized the visual effect of therecycled High Density Polythylene Drums (HDPE) withits structural and connecting capabilities. Each HDPEtransforms radically into flower alike at the top withoutlosing the structural integrity at the bottom through thevariouse cuts according to the overlaped surface areaconnected to the adjacent barrels, which also determinesthe fixing point of the internal timber disks as thestiffeners. The fabrication process integrated parametricgeneration of the G-code for controling a 3 axisesCNC machine. A strategic construction sequence hadto be followed in order to minimize the accumulatingdeflection in the global scale.This design-and-built project was first displayed inone of the most populated pathway in HKU, and thenwas reassembled in Discovery Park Shopping Centre asa permanent structure for various public events.
