We’re pleased to have submitted our significant cultural heritage work at Al Seef on the Dubai Creek to the Public Landscape category of the Landezine LILA Awards 2022.

我们非常荣幸Cracknell位于迪拜运河的重要文化遗产景观项目阿尔塞夫参与 2022 年 Landezine LILA 奖的公共景观类别。

In the 1980’s much of the original Al Bastakiya village in Old Dubai was demolished but a passionate campaign saved the remaining buildings. Developers Meeras saw the potential to strengthen Old Dubai by redeveloping an adjacent 1.6km Creekside stretch; Al Seef (meaning coast/shore in Arabic) would respectfully celebrate the story of the City’s vibrant maritime roots and the ever-evolving multi-national culture.

1980 年代，迪拜旧城区大部分历史遗留下来的 Al Bastakiya village（巴斯塔基亚村）被拆除，但是一场热情高涨的保护运动挽救了剩余的老建筑物。开发商 Meeras 看到了展现迪拜旧城风采的潜力，展开了相邻1.6 公里运河段的开发建设；Al Seef阿尔塞夫（在阿拉伯语中意为海岸/海滨）展现了这座城市充满活力的海洋源起和不断演变的多民族文化历史。

Al Seef recreates the architectural heritage of Dubai’s local vernacular. The design philosophy was to show the city’s development history. Starting with the architecture of the 1890s, the idea was to create public realm that captured different decades of Dubai’s history through natural weathering & construction. With considerable research and attention to detail, materials were used to appear as if they had been laid over time.

阿尔塞夫再现了迪拜本土的传统建筑语言，其设计理念展现了这座城市的发展历史。从 1890 年代的建筑开始，我们的想法是通过公共空间的营造来展现自然风化和传统建造工艺下的风貌场景，抓住迪拜几十年来在不同时代背景下的人文痕迹。通过大量的研究和对细节的关注，材料的巧妙运用，来呈现时间的沉淀。

The navigable & walkable routes of Al Seef now link the character & experiences of the pungent and colourful souks & have increased circulation between & around both sides of the Creek’s heritage districts & in so doing have helped to regenerate the heart of Old Dubai.

阿尔塞夫识别性高和步行友好的游线串联起运河两岸氛围浓郁、色彩缤纷的露天市场，为游客们带来独特的体验。通过梳理和提升运河两岸人文遗产区及周边的交通微循环，极大的推动了迪拜旧城区中心区域的复兴。

Since completion in 2018, Al Seef has become a treasured space. It is a popular destination with tourists & ‘Instagrammers’ & importantly is a regular part of the City’s cultural calendar, providing an enriching link to the City’s trading route past through a public realm that serves the local community & visitors alike.

自 2018 年建成以来，阿尔塞夫已成为迪拜最受喜爱的公共空间。她是游客们的首选目的地和Ins 用户的网红打卡地。更重要的是，这里已然成为迪拜重要城市文化活动日程安排的重要场地，与这座城市古老的贸易历史产生共鸣，为当地社区居民和世界游客提供了服务完善的公共空间。
