在海滩旁边，这个公园的主要特征是它有50年历史的黑松林，其设计挑战是尽量减少建筑对自然环境的影响。弯曲的形式是战略性的设计，使45米长的桥梁适应自然环境，同时提供城市和海滩公园之间的连接。

Alongside the beach, the key feature of this park is its 50 year old black pine forest and the design challenges are to minimize the construction impact to the natural environment. The curved form was strategically designed to allow the 45 meters long bridge fit into the natural environment while at the same time provide a connection between the city and the beach park.

特殊钢结构的设计是为了适应复杂的同时创造大跨度。在造型、结构优化、立面惩罚、施工文件等设计过程中，都采用了参数化设计技术，以保证复杂形状由当地低技术制造企业“制造”。“低技术参数化设计”是我们面对中国当前建设形势的战略。

Special steel structure was designed to fit the complex from at the same time create big span. Parametric design technique has been adopted throughout all design process i.e. form finding, structure optimization, facade penalization and construction documentation, which make sure the complex shape can be "made" by local low technology manufacturer. "Low Technology Parametric Design" is our strategy to face China's current construction situation.
