一般都市場所設計的方式多以汲取在地精神，而予以強化地域特質。本設計則不然。這個創作提出了一個異質並存、異境錯置的都市設計觀。其中試圖結合廣場及花園兩個不同的環境意涵。
廣場是公共的活動場所，花園則是想像的投射。本設計藉由集體慾望的觀點，以域外的熱帶花園植入在地的寒帶廣場。廣場與花園上下交疊、互相連結且各自獨立。廣場不只是世俗生活與國家榮耀之紀念場，同時，也微顯出人們對於環境的異域意識。
中央廣場為海參崴最重要的都市節慶與活動場所。然而，現況卻顯示出建築與都市分離的現象。本設計針對廣場周邊的分析，進行一系列的空間改造，包括變動既有的量體關係及加入新的量體，並在廣場中置入隱藏的花園。
在設計上則取法自然，並提出三種空間操作方法。在配置上取材於熱帶列嶼的意象；在外觀上則以岩石為擬仿對象；在結構上則師法檳榔花與冰裂紋的生成邏輯。意圖以氣候情境的錯置，重新詮釋海參崴市中央廣場做為港埠場所集體的遊移潛意識。

One of the practical way of place design is usually aim to strengthen the indigenous aura of the local spirits. However, this design presents a different argument. This thesis discusses about the spatial meanings of the city square and garden. It aims to explore a new form of public urban space that juxtaposes garden and square as a whole on the selected site of the Central Square of Vladivostok.
City squares are practical public urban spaces, while gardens are private paradise expressing personal inner fantasies. In this design, the garden lies right underneath the square. They serve multiple combined purposes, and yet operate independently. Therefore, the city square is not merely a center of the urban activity or a memorial place for national honors. It also reflects the deeper topographic exoticism of people and goes beyond.
The Central Square is the major site for urban events and celebrations. However, due to the discreteness between architecture and the city, the square is limited to little activities and restricted space. This design takes a series of action in regeneration of the square, proposing a new concept of urban design with the co-existence of garden.
This study proposes three design methods in spatial design. The archipelagos of the tropical world is conceived as the source for the site plan. Betel nut tree, cracked ice patterns and rocky mountain shapes were selected to be reinterpreted into architectural supports, canopy and skin respectively. In response to unique ambiance of the place of the Central Square of Vladivostok.
