MVRDV 揭晓为2025曼谷设计周完成的《巨型坐毯》（Mega Mat）临时装置，装置位于曼谷市中心， 利 用坐毯形式的公共空间，展示泰国对塑料垃圾回收利用的进程与成果。 《巨型坐毯》装置位于曼谷市政厅外的兰坤明 (Lan Khon Mueang) 城市广场，是一个由 500 多块再生塑料垫拼接而成的模块化装置，展示了在日常生活中使用再生塑料制品的巨大可能性。鲜艳的坐毯色彩为设计周增添了活力，与周围环境联系起来——同时还形成了一个 860 平方米的信息图表，介绍泰国的塑料废物处理情况。

MVRDV has completed a temporary installation at the heart of Bangkok Design Week, creating a public space that also tells a story of plastic waste and recycling in Thailand. Located on the Lan Khon Mueang Town Square outside the Bangkok Metropolitan Authority City Hall, the Mega Mat is a modular piece made of over 500 recycled plastic mats, showcasing the possibilities for using recycled plastic in everyday objects. Its bright colours add a burst of energy to the design week and connect the Mega Mat to its surroundings – and also form an 860-square-metre infographic about Thailand’s plastic waste processing.

泰国每年产生约 200 万吨塑料垃圾；国内各行业和政府都在致力于减少对塑料的使用并加强塑料回收和再利用，相继出台了一系列的政策和行动框架，塑料问题已成为全国热议的话题。基于此， MVRDV 希望在今年的曼谷设计周上，用这一装置来展现再生塑料作为日常生产材料的多功能性 。

Thailand produces around 2 million tonnes of plastic waste a year; the issue has become a hot topic nationwide as industries and the government have introduced policies and frameworks to reduce the consumption of plastic and increase the percentage of waste that is recycled. To build on this national momentum, with their contribution to Bangkok Design Week MVRDV wanted to celebrate the versatility of recycled plastic as a material for everyday products.

《巨型坐毯》以再生塑料为基材，以夸大的尺度复刻了泰国常见家居用品——“Sua”，即坐垫。 532 个1.8 x 0.9 米的坐垫模块皆采用泰国传统图案编织而成，经过拼接组装，形成一个超大尺寸的“城市坐毯”。 在曼谷设计周结束后，这块巨型坐毯将被拆解再利用：一部分将被捐赠给当地的寺庙，剩余的部分将变成瑜伽垫或者被改造成包袋等产品。

The Mega Mat takes recycled plastic as the material for a ubiquitous household item, the “Sua”, or mat, on which Thai families have been sitting for generations. A total of 532 modular pieces, woven with a traditional Thai textile pattern, come together to make a supersized Sua for the whole city. With each module measuring 1.8 by 0.9 metres, after Bangkok Design Week the Mega Mat will be dismantled and the individual mats will go on to live a third life – some will be donated to local temples, others will become yoga mats, and others will be upcycled into products such as bags.

《巨型坐毯》采用了鲜艳的渐变色谱，同时传递了塑料垃圾回收的数据信息： 红色表示被送往不卫生垃圾填埋场的塑料垃圾；橙色代表进入卫生填埋场的塑料垃圾，这类填埋场设有防护屏障，可防止垃圾对地面的污染；黄色表示未被回收的塑料垃圾；中间的绿色区域表示被成功回收的塑料垃圾。这些颜色以同心圆的顺序排列，呼应了广场后方苏泰寺 (Wat Suthat Thepwararam) 的彩色屋顶。

The bright colours of this Mega Mat form a gradient that serves as an infographic display of how plastic waste is currently disposed of in the country: red signifies the percentage of waste that is sent to unsanitary landfills; shades of orange represent the percentage that goes to sanitary landfills, with barriers in place that prevent ground pollution; yellow represents the percentage of waste that goes uncollected; while finally, the shades of green at the centre represent the percentage of plastic that is recycled. The colours, with their concentric arrangement, also reference the colourful roofs of the Wat Suthat Thepwararam, a temple located behind the plaza.

MVRDV 创始合伙人 Winy Maas 在装置现场表示，“ 人们越发意识到日常用品与地球生态的关联。我非常赞赏泰国对这项议题的关注和推动。通过《巨型坐毯》装置，我们希望进一步强调回收材料所创造的可能性。在一座用混凝土构筑的城市里，这张坐毯提供了一个柔软的空间，你可以脱掉鞋子，坐着、躺下、阅读和玩耍 。”

“Around the world, people are understanding the need to think more about the objects they use, and to see products as part of a connected ecological web”, says MVRDV founder Winy Maas. “In Thailand this conversation is already well underway. I encourage that. With our design of the Mega Mat, we also wanted to celebrate it as an opportunity, to see the possibilities that are created by putting an emphasis on recycled materials. In a city dominated by concrete, this mat creates a soft space where you can take off your shoes, sit, lie down, read, and play.”

《巨型坐毯》的一角被抬起，形成一个垂帘般的三角形开口，再次让人联想到背后苏泰寺的屋顶。这个有遮荫的角落也成为了一个分享信息的空间，人们可以在这里观看关于泰国塑料废弃物和回收利用的展览，和装置本身意图表达的再生理念。 在坐毯的其余部分，人们可以自由使用，让整片兰坤明广场成为所有人的户外客厅。

On one corner, the Mega Mat is lifted, with the upwards-curving shape again reminiscent of the roofs of the Wat Suthat Thepwararam. This sheltered corner provides a space to share information, where visitors can find an exhibition about the story of plastic waste and recycling in Thailand and the meaning woven into the recycled plastic of the Mega Mat, while the rest of the installation allows people to sit on and enjoy the Lan Khon Mueang plaza as their outdoor living room.

为曼谷设计周呈现的《巨型坐毯》是 MVRDV 可持续发展进程中的一环，是事务所基于荷兰绿建筑委员会设立的可持续目标下所开展的低碳实践之一。最近，MVRDV 也在德国慕尼黑举办了“Carbon Confession” 展览，讲述了事务所在各项研究和实践中对碳足迹的关注，从自主开发 CarbonScape 软件来减少项目全过程的碳排放，到创建 MVRDV 绿色梦想基金会 (Green Dream Foundation) 来中和事务所工作过程中因差旅而产生的碳排放。

MVRDV’s engagement with recycling in Bangkok Design Week is part of the practice’s broader efforts in sustainability, as it aims to transition its portfolio to a low-carbon, “Paris-proof” paradigm. The firm recently opened the Carbon Confessions exhibition in Munich that tells the story of their quest for carbon reductions on multiple levels, from developing the CarbonScape software to optimise the emissions of their projects to creating The Green Dream Foundation to offset the travel emissions created in the course of their work.
