Qianhai’s Guiwan Park / Field Operations

“Guiwan Park is a bold, responsible, and balanced exemplar of new urban landscape infrastructure. The transformation from hermetic canal to woven green infrastructure in just two years is a model for all waterfront cities.” - 2023 Awards Jury. In mid-October 2023, the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) held its annual awards ceremony in Minneapolis, USA. Among the international contenders, the Qianhai Guiwan Park project, led by Field Operations, is the only non-U.S. project from China that received the annual Professional General Design Honor Award. This groundbreaking project, Qianhai Guiwan Park, brought together a multidisciplinary team of experts from over 19 fields including engineering, geology, transportation, architecture, and structural engineering. It serves as a testament to China's prowess in construction and innovation, as the team collectively tackled a global challenge with daring innovation and unwavering dedication. Notably, core members of the team from Field Operations, involved since 2016, proudly represented the project at the esteemed awards ceremony. Through its trailblazing approach and cutting-edge engineering, Qianhai Guiwan Park is not only reshaping the landscape but also transforming the way people live, offering a distinctive contribution to societal advancement.
