This bird observatory is a micro-level architectural intervention as a part of rural region revival plan as Songyang became a popular destination of tourism. The project is chosen to locate next to a wetland as a migration stop for birds, and next to a farmland which was owned by local village community. It is not only a space for research purpose, but also an education center for students, a resting area for tourists, and, most importantly, a community centre for rural residents.

该项目是松阳县的古村活化计划中建筑介入乡村的一环，选址位于黄公渡附近鸟类过冬的一片滩涂边，同时也紧临村民耕作的农田。这座建筑不仅是科考研究的基地，也是科普教育的中心，游客休息的一站更重要的是村民活动的中心。

The bamboo grove is a green wall cutting this site into two distinguish parts. Accordingly, only two facades are shown in this project, which connect farmland and wetland with different perspectives. The one facing farmland, a place where people live, becomes a house with bamboo grove as its back drop. A split gap in the middle calls for mysterious imagination towards the other side. The other one facing wetland, a place where birds stay, becomes a nest hidden in-between lush vegetation, to minimize human activities inside.

场地中的竹林如同一道绿墙一样将场地划分为两个截然不同的部分。建筑则呈现出了两个立面来面对农田和滩涂的景色。对向农田侧的，建筑呈现出竹林之下居所的状态，而另一面，建筑成为了竹林之上的巢穴，将人的活动影响降到最小。

Architects work with local craftsmen, using bamboo and materials on site as the formwork to cast concrete structure. The natural texture and raw concrete surface produce a dynamic appearance, while we consider light as an additional material to allow this building to grow and to change.

建筑师和当地的工匠一起，用当地的材料，特别是竹子来浇筑建筑的混凝土墙面。自然的纹理和混凝土原有的粗糙的特征呈现出一种动态的效果。
