The first impression that most people in Chicago introduced to their minds should be Yundou Sculpture, but when they travel to Chicago, they fall in love with this crown fountain. I feel that the Chicago fountain in summer is full of youthful vitality. The fountain is full of children playing. It feels very leisurely. A major attraction, You can slow down, grab a cup of coffee, sit on the steps next to you, see the scenery, and chat. The crown fountain was designed by Catalan artist Jaume Plensa and opened to the public in July 2004. It has gradually become a major landmark attraction in Chicago. The reflection pool of black granite and two image towers in Chicago must-check in attractions constitute the crown fountain. The smiles of the Chicago citizens are played in turn, and the design of the fountain is also very cool. A water flow hole is designed from the citizens' mouth. The fountain will provide water from May to October. Every 5 minutes, there is a scene of water spraying with a drum mouth. It is a large attraction with a life atmosphere. Very recommended to come and check in
The crown fountain is a very characteristic photo place, this fountain is a large wall made of led, different pictures can be changed at any time, many characters open mouth pictures just fit the exit of the fountain, very creative a building.
芝加哥千禧公园,是我见过的最棒的城市公共空间设计。除了城市花园的功能外,开放、漂亮、活力、互动,处处体现了以人为本的关怀,满足了不同群体的需求,无论是老年人、年轻人还是孩子,都能找到适合自己活动的区域。 在公园靠近密歇根大道的路边,有一个别出心裁的现代喷泉——皇冠喷泉,由西班牙设计师皮兰萨设计。水从两座高15米的立方塔不断漫洒下来形成水帘瀑布。两个立方塔中间是水及脚面的浅水池。立方塔的表面由LED方块屏幕组成,屏幕上映出彩色的人脸。这是1千个不同族裔、不同性别、不同年龄的芝加哥市民的彩照,在音乐的伴奏下交替播放,10分钟换一张,主题是芝加哥人民欢迎来自世界各地的朋友们。 这里是孩子们的戏水乐园,她们尽情嬉戏、玩乐、追逐。有趣的是,这些人脸不仅会笑,还会闭眼噘嘴,表情多得很,不一会儿一道水柱突然从他嘴里喷了出来,四周玩水的孩子抢着站到水柱下。 这真是现代艺术与现代科技的完美结合。
Crown Fountain皇冠喷泉,就在云门(豆子)旁边,是非常有意思的一个喷泉。有时候水会从屏幕的人脸里喷出来。变换的人脸不是众所周知的明星的,而是不同年龄不同族裔的普通民众的。还有音乐可以听。这个喷泉既有科技感又有艺术感
