苏州拥有世界上最引人入胜的历史园林与博物馆。它们作为中国古典文化的门户，每年吸引约三千八百万国内游客。而在现代中国，苏州的领导者却担心如果城市不从历史形象中走出，会失去其吸引力。但苏州是一个充满前瞻性的地方。她是中国高科技革命的核心并且涌动着鲜为人知的现代文化潜流。有了这些认识，我们将狮山总体规划的主要目标设定为：建立一个融合苏州经典园林历史与象征未来广阔前景的现代文化设施的全新文化区。Sasaki的总体规划通过重点关注充满生机的公共领域、交通导向发展、创新功能业态与生态恢复等方法实践了这一目标。

狮山基地位于苏州主要东西轴线的西部终点，交通便利并占据多项战略优势。它坐落在新兴高新区中心并与换乘站相连，地标般的山峦与湖泊体现苏州丰富的景观特色。但是今天，狮山的潜质并未得到充分发挥——大部分原因是由于山体东部已经过时的游乐园与基地西边管理不善的苗圃，而公共交通的缺乏也使人们较难来到这里欣赏景致。总体规划的首要目标是改善基地的通达性，使得周边的人们可以顺利到达，游山赏湖。两条地铁线与一条轻轨线为基地提供了绝好的联通性。高密度与公共功能集结于站点周围，减少对私家车的依赖。

规划中的开发业态指标对为科技、生态、数字媒体与艺术方面提供全面支持并积极展示的苏州现代创新机构给予重点关注。 新的文化设施与多样的公共功能聚集，包括酒店、餐饮与零售，以创造紧邻狮山城市一面的绝佳滨湖空间。

在基地西边，保留现有苗圃作为区域公园的基础并促进通达山体的联系。从现有苗圃中移植苗木到基地其它地方, 让出空间以提供休闲娱乐的户外活动功能，在降低森林密度的同时整合本地乔木与灌木。森林生态系统的修复为林地物种提供了重要的栖息地并与更大规模景观框架结合支持基地山地、湖泊与湿地内多个栖息地。尽管为新开发项目，规划中仍增加了15%的开放空间。

英文版介绍：

Suzhou is home to some of the world's most impressive historical gardens and museums dedicated to ancient Chinese culture, attracting approximately 38 million domestic Chinese tourists each year. In contemporary China, however, Suzhou's leaders are concerned that it may lose its appeal if the city does not evolve beyond its historical image. Suzhou is also a forward-thinking place. It is one of the epicenters of China's high-tech revolution, and has an undercurrent of contemporary culture that few visitors experience. With this in mind, the primary goal of the Shishan master plan was to establish a new cultural district that blends the best of Suzhou's garden city history with contemporary cultural facilities that highlight Suzhou's bright future. Sasaki's master plan achieves this goal by focusing on a vibrant public realm, transit-oriented development, innovative programming, and ecological restoration.

Located at the western terminus of Suzhou's main east-west axis, the Shishan site is accessible and has several strategic advantages. It sits at the center of a new high-tech district and is connected to transit. It is also linked to the rich landscape identity of Suzhou through an iconic mountain and existing lake. But today, Shishan is underutilized and offers little public access to the scenic landscape—in large part due to a dated amusement park on the eastern side of the mountain and a poorly managed tree nursery on the western side. A primary objective of the master plan is to make the site as permeable as possible to allow for contiguous public access to the lakefront and the mountain. Two subway lines and one surface light rail line provide excellent connectivity and accessibility. Higher density and public program is sited adjacent to transit stops, reducing auto dependency.

The proposed development program focuses on contemporary institutions that support and showcase Suzhou's innovations in science, technology, ecology, digital media, and the arts. New cultural facilities are grouped with a variety of additional public uses including a hotel, restaurants, and retail to create an urban lakefront on the "city side" of the mountain. 

On the western side of the site, the existing tree nursery is retained as the foundation for a regional park that promotes access to the mountain. Designed clearings within the former nursery provide spaces for recreational landscape programming. Removed trees are replanted elsewhere throughout the site, while remaining forested areas are thinned and integrated with native trees and shrubs. This restored forest ecosystem provides vital habitat for woodland species and works with the larger landscape framework to support multiple habitats within the hills, lake, and wetlands of the site. Despite development, the new plan increases open space by 15%.
