地域文化和建筑目的

“竹枝书院”位于四川省宜宾市长宁县竹海镇永江村，紧靠著名的蜀南竹海风景区。项目坐落在永江村黄桷滩一个小村落，周围竹林、水田、菜地、山丘环绕，西侧、南侧淯江潺潺而过，北侧蜀南竹海延绵起伏形成一幅层峦叠嶂的绿色巨幕。

Regional culture and architectural purpose

"BambooBranch Academy" is located in Yongjiang Village, Zhuhai Town, ChangningCounty, Yibin, Sichuan Province, near the famous Shunan Bamboo Sea Scenic Area.The project, situated in a small village in Huangjuetan, Yongjiang Village, issurrounded by bamboo forests, paddy fields, vegetable fields, and hills. TheYujiang River is babbling in the west and the south, and Shunan Bamboo Sea inthe north rolls like a large green screen.

“竹枝书院”在中国“乡村振兴”的背景下诞生。“因地制宜发展竹产业，让竹林成为四川美丽乡村的一道风景线”、“宜宾之竹，川南面向世界窗口的生态门户”是其初始的精神层面的建筑目的；竹间乐坊、稻田书院、禅修会馆是其物质层面的建筑目的。

"BambooBranch Academy" was developed as China implemented the "ruralrevitalization" strategy. Mentally, its architectural purpose is to"develop the bamboo industry in accordance with local conditions, andlandscape Sichuan villages with bamboo forests" and "make bamboo ofYibin an ecological gateway to introduce southern Sichuan to the world."Physically, its architectural purpose is to build the Music Workshop underBamboo, Paddy Field Academy, and Guild Hall for Buddhist Meditation.

建筑意象

与项目现场的亲密接触，是众多飘忽的概念形象转化为深刻印象，从而再抽象成为核心建筑意象的必要过程。第一次到项目现场是二零一九年一月深冬，村子里万物凋零、雨雾弥漫，枯黄水田里嬉戏的鸭子、冲着陌生的我们狂吠的家犬、田间漫步的当地村民，是这里少有的生机。虽有些凋敝但也给人少有的宁静与闲适。

Architectural imagery

The field visitis a necessary process to transform conceptual images into impressions andabstract the impressions into the core architectural imagery. The first visitwas conducted in the late winter of January 2019. The village was wreathed inmist with all plants withered. Only the ducks playing in the paddy fields, dogsbarking at strangers, and villagers strolling in the fields add to itsvitality. Though quite bleak and desolate, it brought a rare sense oftranquility and leisure.

村子的各种形象中，基地周围爬满竹林的小山丘、破败老宅的竹编夹泥墙（竹篾夹生土编制）和小青瓦屋面、老宅旁的芭蕉树都给我们留下了特殊的印象。但这些形象在四川的乡村亦是常见的，很难在记忆中留下深刻的印迹。

We wereimpressed by the various images here - the bamboo-clad hills around the base,the mud walls covered with bamboo strips surrounding the dilapidated house, thegrayish blue tiled roof, and the plantain trees next to the old house. They arecommon in the countryside of Sichuan, and hardly can leave a deep impression.

临走时，江边一丛竹林让大家都激动起来，无数新生的竹笋齐刷刷冲破老竹林的遮盖昂首向天，有几根已发出新枝，让人不禁想起张正见的“翠云梢云自结丛，轻花嫩笋欲凌空”。

We got excited upon seeing the bamboo forest by the river before leaving. Numerous bamboo shoots thrived with irresistible momentum, rising out of the canopy formed by mature bamboo towards the sky. A few had sprouted, reminding us of a bamboo-themed poem written by Zhang Zhengjian.

▽江边的竹林新象

深冬时节得见的这幅景象与之前村子所见形成鲜明的对比，给所有人留下了极其深刻的印象。这个印象不禁让人联想到项目关于“振兴”的主题，“卓尔不群”、“推陈出新”、“新旧共荣”游于脑际。第二次现场探勘是在二月初春，村子四周山丘上的竹林已随处可见“翠云梢云自结丛，轻花嫩笋欲凌空”的景象。

It was in stark contrast withwhat we saw back in the village, which impressed us a lot. It reminded us ofthe motif of the project - "revitalization", which can be linked upwith such words and phrases as "prominence," "getting rid of thestale and bringing forth the fresh," and "prosperity of both the newand the old." We came here thesecond time in the early spring of February. The bamboo trees on the hillsaround the village were about to reach the sky with tender shoots like clustersof green clouds.

▽随处可见的“欲凌空”意象

当天风和日丽，是竹林探秘的好时机。“竹影斑驳”、“竹烟波月”、“竹径通幽”这些游离的意识形态得以在现场亲身体验，竹林自然形成的廊、拱、光影、气味、声音都给大家留下了非常深刻的印象。

Itwas a breezy and sunny day to explore the bamboo forest. We saw first hand theimages like "mottled shadows cast by bamboo trees," "the bambooforest under the moon," and "the winding path through the bambooforest." We were impressed by the corridors naturally formed by bambootrees, and their light and shadow, smell and sound.

▽书院竹林意象

中国古时称音乐为“丝竹”，中国传统乐器如笛、箫、笙、筝、二胡……等皆离不开竹。而中国古典音乐与诗歌联系紧密，中国古代以入乐与否，区分歌与诗，入乐为歌，不入乐为诗。诗从歌中分化而来，为语言艺术，而歌则是一种历史久远的音乐文学。

Inancient China, music was called "Sizhu",and traditional Chinese musical instruments such as flute,xiao,sheng,zhenganderhuare all made of bamboo. Chinese classical music is closelyrelated to poetry. Songs were distinguished from poems in ancient China as theformer was accompanied by music and the latter was not. Poems, a linguisticart, were derived from songs that fall under the musical literature with a longhistory.

▽竹林七乐意象

中国书院的萌芽可以追溯到汉代，最初是文人雅士聚集生徒、私家讲学之所，后发展成为讲学、辩论、研学、藏书的场所，是众多文人雅士集聚之地。中国古代书籍竹简更是与竹密不可分。禅修广泛来讲是一种静心、修身、养性的方法，其功能与乐坊、书院有着极强的融合性。

The emergence of Chinese academies can be traced back to the HanDynasty. They were places where literati and scholars gathered for givinglectures at first, and later developed into venues for lectures, debates,research, and collection of books. The books in ancient China were made ofbamboo slips. Meditation is generally a method of promoting peace of mind andself-cultivation, and highly compatible with music workshops and academies interms of function.

竹枝——词牌名，乐府《近代曲》之一，古巴渝地区民歌演变而来，唐代诗人刘禹锡任夔(kuí)州刺史时，依调填词，据以改作新词，吟咏节物风光、民风习俗为其主要特色。唱时，以笛、鼓伴奏，同时起舞。夔州（今重庆奉节）为唐代川东地区的政治、经济、文化和军事中心；戎州（今宜宾）为唐代川南地区重镇，万里长江第一城。戎州与夔州以长江相连，两地联系紧密，自古就有“巴山蜀水”之美誉，两地自古亦是众多文人墨客游历之地，李白、杜甫、白居易、刘禹锡、苏轼、黄庭坚……等等，描写两地山水人文的著名诗词不计其数。

Zhuzhi(bamboobranch) is the name of a tune and one of the Yuefu poems. It evolved from thefolk songs in the ancient Ba and Yu areas. Li Yuxi, a poet in the Tang Dynasty,composed a poem for the tune when he served as the prefectural governor ofKuizhou to depict the climate, natural phenomena and customs. It was performedby the singer with dancers accompanied by flute and drum. Kuizhou (now Fengjie,Chongqing) was the political, economic, cultural, and military center ofeastern Sichuan in the Tang Dynasty. Rongzhou (now Yibin) was a place ofstrategic importance in southern Sichuan in the Tang Dynasty and the first cityalong the Yangtze River. Rongzhou and Kuizhou are so closely connected by theYangtze River geographically and culturally that the "mountains of Ba and watersof Shu" have enjoyed a reputation since ancient times. Many literati andscholars traveled here, such as Li Bai, Du Fu, Bai Juyi, Liu Yuxi, Su Shi, andHuang Tingjian, and wrote countless poems about this region.Zhuzhiis closely related to the musicworkshop as the folk song, and to the academy as the poem.

竹枝作为民歌与乐坊有着密切的关联，作为诗词亦与书院联系紧密。竹枝既是竹的重要构成元素，更是中国传统文学不可或缺的一部分。竹枝具象和抽象的意象与建筑目的（乐坊、书院、禅修）以及现场探勘时“翠云梢云自结丛，轻花嫩笋欲凌空”那种极其深刻的印象三者不谋而合，“竹枝书院”之名应运而生。

Bamboo branches areimportant not only to bamboo itself, but also to traditional Chineseliterature. The concrete and abstract imageries of bamboo branches coincidedwith the architectural purpose (music workshop, academy and meditation) and thescene that "the bamboo trees on the hills around the village were about toreach the sky with tender shoots like clusters of green clouds" greatlyimpressed us.

▽竹枝书院乡土氛围

竹枝这个核心建筑意象，即竹枝书院建筑精神的意象表达，具有极强的象征意义。而建筑具体形象的表现，当由竹枝这个形象衍生的通象来承载。现场踏勘及前期调研所获取的那些零碎意象:竹节、竹丛、竹影斑驳、竹径通幽、竹烟波月、芭蕉、小青瓦屋面、爬满竹林的小山丘……此时既可由这个建筑精神有机的组合在一起，成为营造建筑意境的基石。

Zhuzhias thecore architectural imagery represents the guiding architectural principles ofBamboo Branch Academy with great symbolic significance. The concrete image ofthe architecture should be expressed with the synaesthetic image deriving fromZhuzhior bamboo branches. Thefragmentary imageries obtained from the field visits and preliminaryinvestigations including bamboo knots, bamboo groves, mottled shadows cast bybamboo trees, paths flanked by bamboo, bamboo under the moon, plantain trees,grayish blue tiled roof and hills covered with bamboo forests can be integratedby the guiding architectural principles organically and function as thecornerstone for creating a proper architectural artistic conception.

建筑意境

川南地区有着浓郁的竹林村落传统人居文化，“一田一房一院”是其典型格局，房前屋后必有竹林相伴。牟巘（yǎn）五的《题水竹居》“绕屋清波隔翠绡，鱼鳞发发鸟悠清。画阑影漾清涟动，书几阴来绿雨摇。”几乎是项目整体建筑意境的真实写照。

Architectural artistic conception

Peoplein southern Sichuan live in villages built with and surrounded by bambootraditionally, as characterized by "one house with one patch of farmlandand one courtyard."MouYanwu'sWrittenwhile Living near Water and Bamboooffers a prime example.By its barrage of beautiful imagery—such as a cabin encircled by clear water, green chiffon, vibrant fish and birds, the reflection of a balustrade on the rippling water, a small writing desk, a gentle green drizzle— the poem truly portrays the project's architectural concept.

▽一田一房一院意象

“绕屋”即延绵起伏的建筑形态，“画阑影漾”即变化丰富的檐廊，“书几”即是对书院功能的刻画；“隔翠绡、鸟悠清、清涟动、绿雨摇”更是建筑与竹林、飞鸟、水田、细雨等自然环境完美融合的生动描绘。

The "cabin encircled by clear water"is a metaphor for the rolling architectural form, "the reflection of abalustrade on the rippling water" indicates the ever-changing eavesgalleries, and the "small writing desk" the function of the academy;the "green chiffon, vibrant birds, reflection of a balustrade on therippling water and a gentle green drizzle" vividly depicts a tiny worldwhere architecture is in perfect harmony with nature, which is represented bybamboo forests, flying birds, rice paddies, and the light rain.

刘禹锡的《竹枝词》“杨柳青青江水平，闻郎江上踏歌声。东边日出西边雨，道是无晴却有晴。”这首词所描绘的田园意境，与竹枝书院所设想的一些人与人若即若离的互动场景亦极其相似。

"Between the willows green the river flows along; I hear my beloved from a boat breaking into song. The west is veiled in rain, the east enjoys sunshine; My beloved is as deep in love as the day is fine." Liu Yuxi'sBamboo Branch Songdepicts an idyllic mood very similar to the scenes of interaction circulating for the architectural project of Bamboo Branch Academy.

以意赋象，以象见意

“竹枝书院”由两座川南老宅重塑而成，两座建筑要将乐坊、书院、禅修三个功能安置妥当，根据三个功能的融合性，将书院分置两地。远离道路清幽静谧的一座保护较好，拆除改造，与禅修结合形成相对静谧的禅修书院。

Endowing forms with ideas, and perceiving ideas through forms

"BambooBranch Academy" is created by remodeling two old houses in southernSichuan. The functions of the music workshop, academy, and meditation should bewell combined to separate Bamboo Branch Academy into two parts.

紧临道路开敞嘈杂的一座破损严重，拆除新建，与乐坊结合形成相对开放的乐坊书院。

The house faraway from the road is serene and properly protected. It is renovated and turnedinto an academy for meditation. The one near the road and thus noisy isseverely damaged and should be rebuilt into the music workshop.

两座书院之间用廊相连，营造“绕屋”之“象”的同时，增加户外多功能空间，赋予书院更多元的生命力。

The twoacademies are connected by a corridor to create an "image" of"surrounding the house" and a multi-functional outdoor space to addvitality.

竹“虚怀若谷”之“意”与禅修“禅”之“意”有许多共通之处，“竹节”之“意”化为禅修书院内外空间之“象”，半户外的庭院、檐廊和通而不透的室内雅室均是竹节意象的具体呈现。

The modesty ofbamboo shares something in common with zen. The idea of bamboo knots is turnedinto the form of the interior and exterior of the academy for meditation.

竹“卓尔不群”之“意”与乐坊“中兴”之“意”相互融合，“竹丛、竹影斑驳、竹径通幽”之“意”化为乐坊书院整体空间之“象”，庭院的竹丛、外廊的白色钢圆管、室内的玻璃天井和竹装置挂饰都是对竹林、竹影、竹径意象的抽象再现。

Theimage of bamboo knots is materialized with the semi-outdoor yard, the porchwith eave and the ventilated yet non-penetrated inner room. The idea of theunrivaled nature of bamboo is integrated with that of liveliness of the musicworkshop. The idea of "bamboo groves casting shadows and flanking awinding path to tranquility" blends into the image of the whole space ofthe music workshop, and is represented in an abstract way by the bamboothickets in the yard, the white steel pipes in the porch, the indoor glasspatio and bamboo installations.

延绵起伏的小青瓦屋面即是“绕屋”意象的体现，也是与周围“爬满竹林的小山丘”的融合，亦是与当地民居“新旧共荣”的回应。

The undulatinggrayish blue tiled roof, the embodiment of the image that the "house issurrounded," is compatible with the "hills covered with bambooforests" in the vicinity, and a response to the requirements of localpeople for "prosperity of the new and the old."
