1 介紹

莊園景觀遺產(chǎn)中的區(qū)域景觀特征是由多個(gè)歷史鄉(xiāng)村莊園決定的[1]，例如歷史悠久的城堡、鄉(xiāng)村別墅、莊園及其附屬花園、農(nóng)田和森林等。莊園是塑造世界各地區(qū)域、景觀與社會(huì)的強(qiáng)大媒介。德國(guó)、英國(guó)、比利時(shí)、意大利、法國(guó)、丹麥、葡萄牙和西班牙都有絕佳的例子，同時(shí)我們?cè)诙砹_斯、日本和中國(guó)也找到一些案例（圖1、2）[2-4]。莊園及其景觀的建設(shè)一直由貴族階級(jí)控制，這種土地所有權(quán)是他們權(quán)力的基礎(chǔ)[5]。一處土地若沒(méi)有建設(shè)鄉(xiāng)村住宅，那它幾乎沒(méi)有什么用處，這些鄉(xiāng)村住宅承載著商業(yè)活動(dòng)，是休閑娛樂(lè)的“發(fā)電站”。莊園景觀是為聯(lián)系宮廷或教皇的住所、狩獵小屋、公園和農(nóng)場(chǎng)所設(shè)置的，貴族們通過(guò)空間設(shè)計(jì)、社會(huì)和經(jīng)濟(jì)的手段組織領(lǐng)土而彰顯其權(quán)利。因此，鄉(xiāng)村的莊園和景觀之間有著直接的關(guān)系，在這里，水網(wǎng)與路網(wǎng)的建設(shè)實(shí)現(xiàn)了人類對(duì)于領(lǐng)土的掌控，同時(shí)這些交通網(wǎng)絡(luò)實(shí)現(xiàn)了與城市中心更好的連接，讓貴族階級(jí)可以輕松地在城市和鄉(xiāng)村莊園之間穿行。

莊園景觀分布在荷蘭的各地（圖3），其中很多修建在阿姆斯特丹（Amsterdam）和海牙（The Hague）這類大城市的周圍，還有一些散落在相對(duì)偏遠(yuǎn)的荷蘭北部和東部。然而，相比歐洲的其他地方，荷蘭的鄉(xiāng)村別墅和莊園的規(guī)模要小得多。例如在英國(guó)，超過(guò)1 200 hm2才稱為莊園。在荷蘭，大多數(shù)鄉(xiāng)村莊園在5～200 hm2之間，很少有超過(guò)1 000 hm2的大型莊園。除了規(guī)模較小這一特征外，荷蘭的莊園還具有區(qū)域意義，因?yàn)榍f園景觀是由地理位置相近的鄉(xiāng)村別墅與莊園共同組成的，其景觀特征與鄉(xiāng)村別墅和莊園的外觀直接相關(guān)，居民和游客也都非常珍視、喜愛(ài)這些景觀。

3 荷蘭的莊園的分布與地質(zhì)形態(tài)特征和水網(wǎng)布局密切相關(guān)The allocation of the estates in the Netherlands is closely related to geomorphological features and water networks

荷蘭國(guó)家遺產(chǎn)局已經(jīng)列明了一些名勝古跡，如鄉(xiāng)村別墅、馬車房、莊園農(nóng)場(chǎng)、茶館、花園小品、公園和（部分）鄉(xiāng)村莊園。在荷蘭有552個(gè)經(jīng)過(guò)國(guó)家認(rèn)證并編輯在冊(cè)的鄉(xiāng)村莊園，被稱為鄉(xiāng)村莊園綜合體。

格爾德蘭省位于荷蘭中東部區(qū)域，面積為5 137 km2，是荷蘭12個(gè)省中占地面積最大者，其包含51個(gè)自治市，共擁有200萬(wàn)人口，風(fēng)景多樣，有森林、大河和鄉(xiāng)村。擁有國(guó)際中學(xué)和大學(xué)的阿納姆市（Arnhem）、奈梅亨市（Nijmegen）和瓦赫寧根市（Wageningen）作為該地區(qū)的中心城市支撐起了該地的知識(shí)型經(jīng)濟(jì)。超過(guò)500座鄉(xiāng)村別墅和莊園坐落于該地區(qū)（圖4）。格爾德蘭省擁有119個(gè)國(guó)家級(jí)鄉(xiāng)村莊園綜合體，超過(guò)全國(guó)總數(shù)的1/5。這些鄉(xiāng)村莊園綜合體中，有97個(gè)城堡和鄉(xiāng)村別墅的主體建筑被認(rèn)證為國(guó)家名勝古跡。

自中世紀(jì)晚期以來(lái)，該地區(qū)一直深受當(dāng)?shù)鼐g迎，特別是在被稱為世外桃源的格爾德蘭省首府阿納姆周圍，沿著埃塞爾河（the river IJssel），即該省最東部的一個(gè)縣。那里起伏的景觀、河流與小溪、肥沃的土地被認(rèn)為是理想的農(nóng)業(yè)與公園用地。直至今日，城堡、鄉(xiāng)村別墅和莊園仍然裝點(diǎn)著格爾德蘭，這其中有2/3仍為私人財(cái)產(chǎn)（圖5），其他的則由信托機(jī)構(gòu)（如格爾德蘭信托）、國(guó)家組織、政府和商業(yè)企業(yè)所有。

這些莊園景觀及其組成要素——紀(jì)念性建筑、花園和其他景觀元素，具有很高的遺產(chǎn)價(jià)值：莊園景觀之中蘊(yùn)含了珍貴的自然景觀，這些莊園景觀更好地保留了自然和人文特色；莊園景觀為旅游、休閑和運(yùn)動(dòng)提供了豐富的機(jī)會(huì)；莊園景觀作為歷史城堡、鄉(xiāng)村別墅和莊園的聚集，具有很高的經(jīng)濟(jì)價(jià)值。

在遺產(chǎn)的保護(hù)方面，荷蘭有著悠久的傳統(tǒng)。但自20世紀(jì)30年代以來(lái)，莊園景觀逐漸遠(yuǎn)離了人們的視野[1]，人們更關(guān)注紀(jì)念碑般的建筑，而不是在景觀環(huán)境中的建筑。但為了可持續(xù)地保護(hù)和發(fā)展城堡、鄉(xiāng)村別墅和莊園，在景觀環(huán)境中認(rèn)知它們是至關(guān)重要的。這需要將單個(gè)鄉(xiāng)村別墅與其周邊環(huán)境——花園、公園、庭園聯(lián)系起來(lái)作為整體對(duì)待，也需要在一個(gè)區(qū)域范圍內(nèi)，綜合考量多個(gè)鄉(xiāng)村別墅的整體環(huán)境及它們之間的關(guān)系。在歷史景觀中，城堡、鄉(xiāng)村別墅等建筑物與其附屬功能空間如馬棚、花園等與大地景觀交織在一起，它們以大地景觀作為本底，并依托大地景觀的空間、美學(xué)屬性，塑造空間序列，實(shí)現(xiàn)獨(dú)特的視覺(jué)效果；反之，這些建筑物及其附屬功能空間也為大地景觀帶來(lái)新的美學(xué)與功能價(jià)值[1]。

氣候變化對(duì)莊園景觀的水資源管理有顯著影響，特別是水資源的豐裕和短缺，以及由于氣溫升高引起的植被變化。與此同時(shí)，持續(xù)的城市化與人類日益增長(zhǎng)的休閑需求也給莊園景觀帶來(lái)了空前的壓力。如何應(yīng)對(duì)由城市化帶來(lái)的空間碎片化問(wèn)題，以及如何回應(yīng)不可避免的因休閑旅游需求的增加而帶來(lái)的莊園產(chǎn)權(quán)轉(zhuǎn)換和功能置換等問(wèn)題，是現(xiàn)如今莊園景觀面臨的巨大挑戰(zhàn)。本文作者認(rèn)為，這些挑戰(zhàn)的復(fù)雜性需要從區(qū)域或“直升機(jī)”視角來(lái)理解，同時(shí)也需理解莊園之間的內(nèi)涵和系統(tǒng)性關(guān)系，從而找到各利益相關(guān)方可協(xié)作的平臺(tái)。本研究提出的基于景觀的區(qū)域設(shè)計(jì)方法通過(guò)跨尺度的設(shè)計(jì)研究與設(shè)計(jì)思維，解讀和認(rèn)知景觀的空間結(jié)構(gòu)與空間連貫性，并依托這些空間特征和空間組織邏輯探討鄉(xiāng)村別墅的未來(lái)發(fā)展。然而，我們應(yīng)如何從空間的角度來(lái)理解莊園景觀呢？我們?cè)撊绾螒?yīng)用這些知識(shí)來(lái)保護(hù)以及適用其未來(lái)呢？

2 作為文化景觀的莊園景觀

莊園景觀不僅是投資、享樂(lè)的對(duì)象或權(quán)力的表達(dá)，而且是真正意義上的文化景觀。由歐洲委員會(huì)界定的文化景觀的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)定義是：“一個(gè)被人們感知的區(qū)域，其特征是自然或人為因素作用或兩者相互作用的結(jié)果。[6]”定義強(qiáng)調(diào)了2個(gè)方面：1）景觀是人類與環(huán)境互動(dòng)的結(jié)果；2）景觀的動(dòng)態(tài)本質(zhì)——無(wú)論有無(wú)人為干預(yù)，景觀都會(huì)發(fā)生變化，這些變化有時(shí)影響深遠(yuǎn)，有時(shí)影響較小，比如氣候變化影響的后果，需要很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間才能顯現(xiàn)出來(lái)。而一些變化也可以迅速發(fā)生，比如在原農(nóng)業(yè)地區(qū)開(kāi)發(fā)新的住房建造項(xiàng)目。

這就是為什么景觀可以被視為一個(gè)復(fù)雜的動(dòng)態(tài)系統(tǒng)，這個(gè)系統(tǒng)由眾多相互作用、動(dòng)態(tài)變化的子系統(tǒng)組成。這些子系統(tǒng)時(shí)刻動(dòng)態(tài)回應(yīng)自然變化、社會(huì)需求以及技術(shù)的發(fā)展。從這個(gè)角度來(lái)看，我們應(yīng)該把莊園景觀理解為自然和社會(huì)的界面，是兩個(gè)子系統(tǒng)結(jié)構(gòu)與進(jìn)程的外在表現(xiàn)形式。

一種實(shí)用且已被廣泛應(yīng)用的方法是對(duì)景觀進(jìn)行分層分析，將不同要素置于不同的圖層中，并探討不同分層之間的互動(dòng)關(guān)系。分層的依據(jù)是這些要素在時(shí)間維度上演進(jìn)變化的頻率，以及這些要素在變化時(shí)對(duì)建成環(huán)境的影響[7]。逐層拆解莊園景觀是把握不同系統(tǒng)和子系統(tǒng)及其關(guān)系的一種方式，這種劃分不應(yīng)該被看作是一種靜態(tài)的或單純的分層安排；相反，這些分拆的層次和子系統(tǒng)是一個(gè)或多或少會(huì)相互影響的離散層，也可能伴隨著時(shí)間的變化發(fā)生改變。在這里，了解莊園景觀及其起源——物理環(huán)境（硬件）、人類活動(dòng)（軟件）、文化、制度和概念性理念之間的關(guān)系被認(rèn)為是必不可少的[8]（圖6）。

2.1 自然環(huán)境層

自然環(huán)境是地形、水、土壤、地質(zhì)基礎(chǔ)結(jié)構(gòu)和氣候，及其相互關(guān)聯(lián)的子生態(tài)系統(tǒng)。自然環(huán)境不應(yīng)被視為由多個(gè)離散的因素組合起來(lái)的系統(tǒng)，而應(yīng)被視為核心和不可分割的組成部分，它決定了景觀應(yīng)如何被對(duì)待。這一主要條件（即自然環(huán)境）的動(dòng)態(tài)特點(diǎn)是緩慢的，通常察覺(jué)不到其演變、重復(fù)迭代以及自然循環(huán)的過(guò)程。

2.2 人類的調(diào)整與干預(yù)層

利用自然環(huán)境進(jìn)行生活、工作和娛樂(lè)是人類活動(dòng)的重要組成部分。人類通過(guò)耕種、修建鄉(xiāng)村莊園及花園、修繕道路、開(kāi)鑿水道等方式利用自然環(huán)境，這種利用過(guò)程有時(shí)會(huì)使景觀發(fā)生一系列的劇烈變化。

2.3 文化、組織和政治層

這一層含有自然環(huán)境的文化、精神和宗教概念，以及人類與之的互動(dòng)，包括科學(xué)技術(shù)的現(xiàn)狀、組織形式、政治運(yùn)動(dòng)、設(shè)計(jì)理念和審美理想。例如，水在不同的文化中有不同的含義，這可以在公園和花園的景觀設(shè)計(jì)處理中窺見(jiàn)一斑。文化、組織和政治層的變化周期相對(duì)較短，因?yàn)檫@與人的參與介入和政治變動(dòng)相關(guān)。

對(duì)莊園景觀的理解是由各個(gè)圖層及各層之間的關(guān)系所決定的（圖7）。莊園景觀是一種關(guān)系結(jié)構(gòu)，連接并影響尺度、空間、生態(tài)、功能和社會(huì)。莊園景觀是一個(gè)整體系統(tǒng)，是一個(gè)空間尺度體系，我們只能通過(guò)觀察不同的空間尺度及其相互關(guān)系來(lái)理解。也就是說(shuō)，單個(gè)的鄉(xiāng)村別墅，連同它們的花園、公園和庭園，構(gòu)成一所莊園，而多所莊園構(gòu)成一處莊園景觀，多處莊園景觀則構(gòu)成了一個(gè)區(qū)域（圖8）①。因此，鄉(xiāng)村莊園是這個(gè)尺度連續(xù)體的一部分，相互之間的關(guān)系是通過(guò)在不同尺度的環(huán)境中特定地點(diǎn)或位置的依附、連接和嵌入而形成的。

7 自然地形和水文與莊園景觀密切相關(guān)，其決定了城堡、鄉(xiāng)村別墅和莊園的位置和分布，以及土地使用的可能性。左邊是與有關(guān)于含沙冰脊的莊園景觀，中間是伊塞爾河和山谷景觀，右邊是覆被沙子和縱橫小溪的莊園景觀Estate landscapes are closely related to natural topography and hydrology, determining the location and allocation of castles, country houses and estates, and possibilities for land use.

3 莊園景觀的歷史

時(shí)間是了解莊園景觀的基本要素。隨著時(shí)間的推移，莊園景觀經(jīng)歷了基于發(fā)展可能性和價(jià)值評(píng)判的演變。部分空間結(jié)構(gòu)、肌理規(guī)則和空間形態(tài)被保存下來(lái)；其他的或繼續(xù)發(fā)展，或被新的形態(tài)所取代，促成了豐富的歷史與空間類型演變[8]。在空間演變的過(guò)程中，那些相對(duì)穩(wěn)定的景觀結(jié)構(gòu)與那些快速變化的空間結(jié)構(gòu)之間相互制衡影響，并在演變中達(dá)到一種平衡[9]。更持久則更傾向于抗拒改變，經(jīng)時(shí)間周轉(zhuǎn)便會(huì)變得更“健壯”（甚至具有鈍性，即與其他物質(zhì)幾乎沒(méi)有相互反應(yīng)）。而這些不同步的變化將景觀變成一個(gè)分了層的整體，其由時(shí)間留下的物理痕跡或相互促進(jìn)，或相互排斥[10]。

格爾德蘭的莊園景觀建設(shè)大致分為3個(gè)關(guān)鍵階段：中世紀(jì)—1600年，貴族（有土地的精英）擁有的占據(jù)大量土地的城堡；1600—1800年，城市居民的鄉(xiāng)村別墅和莊園；1800—1940年，金融、商業(yè)和工業(yè)精英所建造的小型鄉(xiāng)村別墅。

這些階段為一系列的事件提供了窗口，連接傳統(tǒng)與當(dāng)代、有形與無(wú)形。從這方面來(lái)看，一個(gè)莊園景觀具有十分豐富的意義，它可以被“讀”作“傳記”“重寫本”，闡述了促成自身形成的關(guān)鍵活動(dòng)[11-12]。

莊園景觀作為解讀歷史的關(guān)鍵是其包含的“長(zhǎng)期”（法語(yǔ)：Longue durée）的概念，景觀作為一個(gè)長(zhǎng)期的結(jié)構(gòu)，在“連續(xù)居住”[13-14]的過(guò)程中隨著時(shí)間的推移而變化，對(duì)于這些歷史痕跡的掌握是實(shí)現(xiàn)莊園景觀更新的抓手之一，即需要在此基礎(chǔ)上添加新的“層”。莊園景觀的演變是“與生俱來(lái)的”對(duì)歷史的“抹去”與“書寫”。正如我們現(xiàn)在所看到的，莊園景觀是一個(gè)漸進(jìn)選擇的結(jié)果，在這個(gè)過(guò)程中，一些元素被保留下來(lái)，另一些元素發(fā)生變化或被取代。

4 實(shí)現(xiàn)富有韌性的莊園景觀

氣候的變化、旅游休閑需求的增加等挑戰(zhàn)，都需要謹(jǐn)慎處理應(yīng)對(duì)，因?yàn)榭焖俚目臻g擴(kuò)張和功能置換可能會(huì)影響莊園景觀的層次及其“可讀性”，文化認(rèn)同就有消失的危險(xiǎn)。為了避免這種情況發(fā)生，我們需要針對(duì)變化進(jìn)行管理（“變化管理”法），以創(chuàng)造一個(gè)能適應(yīng)未來(lái)的莊園景觀，讓過(guò)去以某種形式繼續(xù)發(fā)揮適當(dāng)?shù)淖饔肹15]。這是一個(gè)動(dòng)態(tài)的、需要不斷調(diào)整的過(guò)程，不同利益相關(guān)者參與其中，除景觀領(lǐng)域?qū)＜彝?，也需要莊園所有者、政府官員、企業(yè)和當(dāng)?shù)乩嫦嚓P(guān)者的積極參與。適應(yīng)性規(guī)劃和設(shè)計(jì)是促進(jìn)社會(huì)生態(tài)包容性、多樣性和靈活性的有力工具。適應(yīng)性規(guī)劃和設(shè)計(jì)的總體目標(biāo)是通過(guò)建立實(shí)驗(yàn)室（實(shí)踐社區(qū)）來(lái)提高莊園景觀的韌性和適應(yīng)能力，在這些社區(qū)中，共同思考、設(shè)計(jì)和實(shí)施不同規(guī)模的可持續(xù)解決方案是核心。而為實(shí)現(xiàn)這一總體目標(biāo)，相關(guān)的研究和設(shè)計(jì)以及重要利益相關(guān)者的參與和可視化的溝通是必不可少的（圖9）[16]。

韌性被定義為系統(tǒng)在不改變其主要狀態(tài)的情況下對(duì)外界變化或干擾作出反應(yīng)的能力[17]。適應(yīng)是指在實(shí)踐過(guò)程或生態(tài)系統(tǒng)結(jié)構(gòu)中對(duì)預(yù)測(cè)或?qū)嶋H的氣候變化可進(jìn)行調(diào)整的程度。適應(yīng)可以是自發(fā)的，也可以是規(guī)劃的；可以是對(duì)反應(yīng)的變化，也可以是對(duì)預(yù)測(cè)的變化所做的反應(yīng)[18]。我們需要正確理解自然和生態(tài)系統(tǒng)如何運(yùn)作，并采用前瞻性、“先發(fā)制人”的方法，來(lái)引導(dǎo)、協(xié)調(diào)和塑造由社會(huì)、經(jīng)濟(jì)和環(huán)境變化帶來(lái)的莊園景觀的動(dòng)態(tài)變化，這種適應(yīng)性規(guī)劃和設(shè)計(jì)過(guò)程基于4個(gè)迭代階段：收集信息、解讀信息、預(yù)期發(fā)展、采取行動(dòng)（圖10）[16]。

我們的假設(shè)是，通過(guò)以設(shè)計(jì)為導(dǎo)向的多尺度和跨學(xué)科的方法，在空間結(jié)構(gòu)、人、知識(shí)和治理方面建立韌性和適應(yīng)能力。通過(guò)運(yùn)用該方法，就可以結(jié)合部門活動(dòng)來(lái)引導(dǎo)變革性的空間發(fā)展過(guò)程，以實(shí)現(xiàn)更協(xié)調(diào)的可持續(xù)成果?；诰坝^的區(qū)域設(shè)計(jì)被認(rèn)為是發(fā)展韌性和適應(yīng)能力的基本策略[19]：1）以景觀的形態(tài)變化過(guò)程為基礎(chǔ)，自然和莊園景觀的“生理學(xué)”作為塑造空間變化的指導(dǎo)；2）創(chuàng)建和再生生命系統(tǒng)，生物多樣性和多功能作為社會(huì)生態(tài)包容和水敏性莊園景觀的基礎(chǔ)；3）發(fā)展韌性和適應(yīng)性空間框架，為該地區(qū)的協(xié)調(diào)發(fā)展（長(zhǎng)期戰(zhàn)略）建立強(qiáng)有力的結(jié)構(gòu)，同時(shí)為當(dāng)?shù)仨?xiàng)目（短期干預(yù)）創(chuàng)造條件；4）是以設(shè)計(jì)為導(dǎo)向的多尺度、跨學(xué)科的方法，是以認(rèn)知為基礎(chǔ)的空間設(shè)計(jì)，是一種整合市民、學(xué)者、商界人士和決策者等各界參與的實(shí)踐。

韌性和適應(yīng)能力的實(shí)現(xiàn)還需要建設(shè)適應(yīng)性強(qiáng)的社會(huì)基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施。一方面，在面對(duì)社會(huì)經(jīng)濟(jì)變化和干擾時(shí)，確保有效和公平公正的公眾參與；另一方面，在規(guī)劃和政策決策中，保證不同利益相關(guān)者的有效參與[20]。通過(guò)增加生物多樣性、使用模塊、采取即時(shí)反饋的方式，可以加強(qiáng)韌性能力、社會(huì)資本、慢變量、臨界值和創(chuàng)新能力[17]。創(chuàng)新則可通過(guò)建立可靠的實(shí)驗(yàn)室（實(shí)踐社區(qū)）、發(fā)展監(jiān)督文化和從一定的失敗中學(xué)習(xí)來(lái)實(shí)現(xiàn)[20]。在實(shí)驗(yàn)室中，以共同思考、設(shè)計(jì)和實(shí)施可持續(xù)解決方案為核心，由相關(guān)的研究和設(shè)計(jì)人員、重要利益相關(guān)者參與，通過(guò)可視化、溝通交流來(lái)促進(jìn)發(fā)展。該實(shí)驗(yàn)室（實(shí)踐社區(qū)）可以被理解為一個(gè)物理空間——實(shí)體實(shí)驗(yàn)室；也可以在方法論層面上被理解為一種交叉的研究設(shè)計(jì)方法。市民、學(xué)者、商界人士和決策者在一個(gè)由地理和制度界定的生活化環(huán)境中進(jìn)行實(shí)驗(yàn)、共同創(chuàng)造和測(cè)試[21]。但這在實(shí)踐中是如何應(yīng)用的呢？

目前，歷史莊園面臨的挑戰(zhàn)是多方面的。我們與當(dāng)?shù)乩嫦嚓P(guān)者（如莊園所有者、遺產(chǎn)專家、市政當(dāng)局、水資源委員會(huì)和省政府）一起，確定了格爾德蘭莊園景觀保護(hù)和開(kāi)發(fā)面臨的三大挑戰(zhàn)：氣候適應(yīng)、遺產(chǎn)旅游以及城市化帶來(lái)的空間碎片化問(wèn)題。如何在尊重遺產(chǎn)價(jià)值的同時(shí)應(yīng)對(duì)這些挑戰(zhàn)？我們認(rèn)為，這些挑戰(zhàn)不能在單一的莊園尺度上解決，而是需要一個(gè)基于景觀的區(qū)域設(shè)計(jì)方法。這種假設(shè)意味著項(xiàng)目過(guò)程中需要區(qū)域?qū)用娴南嚓P(guān)機(jī)構(gòu)的參與，如省政府和水資源委員會(huì)。

為了能夠建立一個(gè)為應(yīng)對(duì)當(dāng)?shù)靥囟▎?wèn)題，由當(dāng)?shù)乩嫦嚓P(guān)者參與，利用基于景觀的區(qū)域設(shè)計(jì)方法產(chǎn)生解決方案的Living實(shí)驗(yàn)室，我們將3個(gè)莊園景觀與主要的三大挑戰(zhàn)聯(lián)系對(duì)應(yīng)起來(lái)，得出了以下3個(gè)針對(duì)3種挑戰(zhàn)的研究設(shè)計(jì)實(shí)驗(yàn)室：1）氣候適應(yīng)——巴克斯溪（Baakse Beek）遺產(chǎn)莊園景觀實(shí)驗(yàn)室；2）遺產(chǎn)旅游——格爾德蘭世外桃源（Gelders Arcadia）遺產(chǎn)莊園景觀實(shí)驗(yàn)室；3）空間碎片化——特韋洛（Twello）遺產(chǎn)莊園景觀實(shí)驗(yàn)室。

在這3個(gè)實(shí)驗(yàn)室中，來(lái)自當(dāng)?shù)乩嫦嚓P(guān)者、專家和代爾夫特理工大學(xué)的學(xué)生界定了每個(gè)地區(qū)的具體問(wèn)題和發(fā)展?jié)摿?，并提出了未?lái)發(fā)展策略。參與者們?cè)趯?shí)驗(yàn)室提供的協(xié)作、共建、實(shí)證平臺(tái)上，使用真實(shí)案例實(shí)施解決方案。每個(gè)實(shí)驗(yàn)室根據(jù)自身實(shí)際情況，都有一系列利益相關(guān)者和發(fā)展動(dòng)態(tài)變化，其中大多數(shù)目前仍在運(yùn)行。這些實(shí)驗(yàn)同時(shí)也是在EU-interreg項(xiàng)目框架下進(jìn)行的，這為進(jìn)一步在歐洲范圍內(nèi)交流項(xiàng)目經(jīng)驗(yàn)提供了機(jī)會(huì)。

在方法論層面，這3所Living實(shí)驗(yàn)室為如何通過(guò)設(shè)計(jì)來(lái)進(jìn)行研究從而應(yīng)對(duì)特定挑戰(zhàn)提供了案例參考[22]。此外，也探索了在景觀領(lǐng)域內(nèi)，政府機(jī)構(gòu)在維護(hù)、發(fā)展和改善歷史鄉(xiāng)村房屋、城堡、莊園中的角色。

5.1 氣候適應(yīng)：Baakse Beek遺產(chǎn)莊園景觀實(shí)驗(yàn)室

這個(gè)實(shí)驗(yàn)室主要討論氣候適應(yīng)性，特別強(qiáng)調(diào)莊園遺產(chǎn)的水資源相關(guān)問(wèn)題，討論莊園環(huán)境應(yīng)對(duì)長(zhǎng)期干旱與偶爾強(qiáng)降雨的處理方法。目標(biāo)包括使莊園景觀成為可調(diào)節(jié)的水系統(tǒng)的一部分，使新系統(tǒng)更具有氣候適應(yīng)性，找出地方當(dāng)局可以承擔(dān)的最佳角色，并從分析到提到解決方案的全過(guò)程中，使用基于景觀的區(qū)域設(shè)計(jì)方法。

Baakse Beek地區(qū)由莊園群和農(nóng)業(yè)用地組成，通過(guò)Baakse Beek溪互相聯(lián)系（圖11），當(dāng)?shù)卮蟛糠智f園的建設(shè)可以追溯到中世紀(jì)，其中部分莊園的所有權(quán)屬于信托機(jī)構(gòu)，但大多數(shù)為私人所有。大部分莊園是建筑、花園、公園和水景的綜合體。近年來(lái)，氣候變化導(dǎo)致了莊園長(zhǎng)時(shí)間的干旱和短時(shí)間強(qiáng)降雨。為了解決這個(gè)問(wèn)題，Living實(shí)驗(yàn)室研究了水資源議題對(duì)莊園遺產(chǎn)的重要性。地區(qū)水務(wù)局、市政當(dāng)局、個(gè)人及其他業(yè)主一同合作，尋找目前應(yīng)對(duì)水資源管理、自然和農(nóng)業(yè)方面的挑戰(zhàn)的解決方法。重點(diǎn)關(guān)注如何在莊園景觀歷史悠久的水資源管理結(jié)構(gòu)框架下儲(chǔ)存水資源。

De Wiersse is located in the brook valley, and the open character is articulated by the garden design. Vistas connect different parts of the landscape

Baakse Beek案例表明，自然、遺產(chǎn)、水資源管理、土地產(chǎn)權(quán)交換等問(wèn)題可在莊園更新保護(hù)設(shè)計(jì)過(guò)程中進(jìn)行探討?？臻g品質(zhì)是解決當(dāng)今莊園景觀面臨挑戰(zhàn)的首要條件，良好的空間品質(zhì)也為旅游業(yè)和娛樂(lè)業(yè)提供了機(jī)會(huì)。Living實(shí)驗(yàn)室表明，多尺度的空間設(shè)計(jì)促成了土地所有者、水資源委員會(huì)、自然保護(hù)團(tuán)體和地區(qū)當(dāng)局共同努力才能實(shí)現(xiàn)的整體短期和長(zhǎng)期解決方案。

這次實(shí)驗(yàn)室的成果包括：1）制定并實(shí)施區(qū)域水資源管理聯(lián)合計(jì)劃，修復(fù)歷史景觀結(jié)構(gòu)和文化元素，在新的規(guī)劃中起到緩沖和涵養(yǎng)水資源的作用；2）建立監(jiān)測(cè)試點(diǎn)，監(jiān)測(cè)干旱對(duì)構(gòu)成莊園景觀的鄉(xiāng)村別墅和歷史遺產(chǎn)的影響；3）確定莊園內(nèi)需要通過(guò)采取施工措施解決干旱問(wèn)題的區(qū)域及其具體情況。

5.2 遺產(chǎn)旅游：Gelders Arcadia遺產(chǎn)莊園景觀實(shí)驗(yàn)室

在Gelders Arcadia的莊園景觀中（圖12），Renkum市、Rheden市、Rozendaal市 和 瓦 赫寧根市等市政當(dāng)局以及米德赫滕和格爾德蘭信托基金（Middachten and the Gelderland Trust）等莊園所有者，一起在尋找發(fā)展遺產(chǎn)旅游和保存遺產(chǎn)價(jià)值之間的良好平衡。目標(biāo)包括將Gelders Arcadia開(kāi)發(fā)成一個(gè)連續(xù)的公共可達(dá)體驗(yàn)區(qū)，將城堡和鄉(xiāng)村莊園遺產(chǎn)與景觀和自然品質(zhì)聯(lián)系起來(lái)。通過(guò)“權(quán)力與榮耀”的省級(jí)旅游主題，講述Gelders Arcadia的故事來(lái)拓寬和深化遺產(chǎn)旅游事業(yè)，這其中便含有權(quán)利景觀與“二戰(zhàn)”的故事。然而，發(fā)展一種現(xiàn)實(shí)的組織模式是基于主要利益相關(guān)者、市政當(dāng)局、遺產(chǎn)所有者和企業(yè)家之間的合作。

12 Gelders Arcadia莊園景觀空間發(fā)展的區(qū)域愿景Regional vision for the spatial development of the estate landscape of Gelders Arcadia

該地區(qū)以含沙冰脊（由冰的隆起而推動(dòng)的山脊，荷蘭語(yǔ)：Veluwezoom）為特色，自中世紀(jì)以來(lái)深受荷蘭精英的喜愛(ài)。在這里遍布中世紀(jì)的城堡和莊園、18世紀(jì)攝政時(shí)期的鄉(xiāng)村莊園以及19世紀(jì)和20世紀(jì)的現(xiàn)代鄉(xiāng)村住宅，共有超過(guò)100個(gè)國(guó)家和當(dāng)?shù)厍f園。此外，這里還可以找到重要的景觀遺產(chǎn)，比如荷蘭第一批景觀花園之一——Biljoen市附近的Beekhuizen莊園。

此處莊園景觀的獨(dú)特之處是由省長(zhǎng)和他們的貴族朋友所創(chuàng)造的景觀結(jié)構(gòu)，比如“國(guó)王之路”。國(guó)王威廉三世在他的狩獵場(chǎng)威盧威修建了多條連接各種狩獵小屋和城堡的道路。這類“權(quán)力景觀”的維護(hù)和旅游推廣是相當(dāng)復(fù)雜的，因?yàn)椤皣?guó)王之路”目前屬于不同的個(gè)人和機(jī)構(gòu)，且分布在好幾個(gè)行政區(qū)范圍內(nèi)。要實(shí)現(xiàn)共同的愿景并對(duì)它們進(jìn)行管理具有相當(dāng)大的挑戰(zhàn)性。而且，很少有游客知道這些權(quán)力景觀的歷史，這些特征并不總是很容易被識(shí)別的。維持及合作非常困難，因?yàn)楹芏嗪献麝P(guān)系是通過(guò)臨時(shí)項(xiàng)目建立的，通常情況下，在項(xiàng)目終止的時(shí)候合作關(guān)系也隨之終止了。有5個(gè)市政當(dāng)局嘗試發(fā)揮帶頭作用，但這并不是一項(xiàng)容易的任務(wù)。莊園景觀對(duì)區(qū)域經(jīng)濟(jì)效益具有積極促進(jìn)作用，可以加強(qiáng)區(qū)域遺產(chǎn)旅游事業(yè)的發(fā)展。遺產(chǎn)旅游也可以成為莊園業(yè)主的寶貴收入來(lái)源，從而在一定程度上確保遺產(chǎn)維護(hù)工作的開(kāi)展。因此，整合不同地方政府，在區(qū)域?qū)用嫔蠈?shí)現(xiàn)旅游愿景是十分必要的。

從Gelder Arcadia的案例中我們了解到，由莊園所有者和當(dāng)局政府共同參與的區(qū)域合作伙伴關(guān)系，可以有效地交流知識(shí)和經(jīng)驗(yàn)。此外，企業(yè)（博物館、酒店、餐廳等）也對(duì)區(qū)域性方法感興趣并愿意參與其中。然而同時(shí)，沒(méi)有人想帶頭發(fā)展區(qū)域旅游，因此區(qū)域政府的作用是至關(guān)重要的，它們是啟動(dòng)、刺激和促進(jìn)區(qū)域發(fā)展的關(guān)鍵。針對(duì)上述情況，該項(xiàng)目采取了以下措施：通過(guò)建立一個(gè)基金會(huì)或信托基金，確保Gelder Arcadia地區(qū)合作的連續(xù)性；建立聯(lián)合旅游，讓當(dāng)?shù)剜l(xiāng)村住宅的業(yè)主參與到Gelder Arcadia的“權(quán)力景觀”中來(lái)；為“國(guó)王之路”制定聯(lián)合管理計(jì)劃，以明確潛在的挑戰(zhàn)、機(jī)遇、解決方案和合作。

5.3 空間碎片化：Twello遺產(chǎn)莊園景觀實(shí)驗(yàn)室

該莊園景觀位于Apeldoorn市– Zutfen市– Deventer市城市三角群（圖13），基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施建設(shè)和城市擴(kuò)張導(dǎo)致了空間碎片化問(wèn)題。在這里，區(qū)域官方部門、市政府和Twello莊園周圍的業(yè)主致力于加強(qiáng)莊園區(qū)域的空間融合，目標(biāo)是保持莊園景觀作為一個(gè)整體以應(yīng)對(duì)空間碎片化增加和空間品質(zhì)降低的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。Living實(shí)驗(yàn)室的建立是為了幫助市政府創(chuàng)建新的保護(hù)與發(fā)展的地方立法，促進(jìn)不同的業(yè)主和政府之間合作，并制定一個(gè)莊園景觀聯(lián)合管理計(jì)劃。

13 特韋洛莊園景觀開(kāi)發(fā)分析Analysis of the development of the estate landscape Twello

Twello區(qū)域被描述為“城市三角群的綠心”，由Apeldoorn、Deventer和Zutphen三個(gè)城市包圍。從Veluwe到IJssel山谷的高砂地質(zhì)景觀過(guò)渡區(qū)中涵蓋各種各樣的景觀。人們很早就發(fā)現(xiàn)了該地區(qū)的美麗。18—19世紀(jì)，居住在周邊城市的富裕家庭購(gòu)買此處的土地來(lái)建造鄉(xiāng)村別墅和鄉(xiāng)村莊園。Twello擁有廣闊的莊園景觀（也稱為Green Carré）——在公園般的景觀中布滿了宏偉的建筑。其豐富的文化歷史是該地域特征的重要組成部分，人們希望保留并在可能的情況下加強(qiáng)這一特征。然而，在這片莊園景觀上，正在大規(guī)模修建道路和房屋，莊園遺產(chǎn)正在被城市化進(jìn)程所威脅。

此時(shí)此刻，我們需要一個(gè)共同的目標(biāo)和計(jì)劃，并確保一個(gè)活躍且有行動(dòng)力的工作團(tuán)體保證目標(biāo)與計(jì)劃的執(zhí)行。因此，區(qū)域官方部門已制定新法例，以加強(qiáng)該地區(qū)的特色，并將莊園景觀視為優(yōu)質(zhì)地帶。在所有的新發(fā)展目標(biāo)中，空間質(zhì)量和文化價(jià)值應(yīng)處于主導(dǎo)地位。這需要人們能夠系統(tǒng)綜合地看待和理解這些景觀集合，而不是只關(guān)注個(gè)別的具有紀(jì)念意義的建筑。因此，創(chuàng)建社區(qū)意識(shí)和促進(jìn)公眾參與至關(guān)重要：創(chuàng)建人們對(duì)該地區(qū)歷史和未來(lái)（潛在機(jī)會(huì)）的認(rèn)識(shí)。同時(shí)，將不同利益相關(guān)方團(tuán)結(jié)在一起也是至關(guān)重要的，這可以作為開(kāi)發(fā)該地區(qū)的一個(gè)基礎(chǔ)和起點(diǎn)。然而，除了空間品質(zhì)，其他方面也至關(guān)重要。例如，討論遺產(chǎn)所能帶來(lái)的經(jīng)濟(jì)價(jià)值可以引起人們對(duì)遺產(chǎn)的興趣，從而可以在項(xiàng)目發(fā)展過(guò)程中嘗試納入他們。此外，在維護(hù)方面的協(xié)作成本會(huì)更低。

Twello這個(gè)案例向我們展示了當(dāng)區(qū)域官方部門、莊園所有者和Voorst市政府密切合作時(shí)，開(kāi)發(fā)了新的空間政策工具“莊園生態(tài)圈”以保護(hù)和發(fā)展莊園景觀的遺產(chǎn)品質(zhì)。在這個(gè)案例中，“莊園生態(tài)圈”的概念得到了進(jìn)一步的探索?！扒f園生態(tài)圈”有助于界定現(xiàn)有村莊和莊園以及它們之間的連接區(qū)域，加強(qiáng)莊園景觀（通常是以前的莊園土地）以及具有“影響范圍”的區(qū)域?！扒f園生態(tài)圈”確定了鄉(xiāng)村別墅的選址和朝向，以及景觀組成元素，如小巷和遠(yuǎn)景。這些信息對(duì)于市政府保護(hù)莊園景觀和單個(gè)莊園現(xiàn)有的品質(zhì)至關(guān)重要，并有助于為政府在調(diào)查決策新的開(kāi)發(fā)機(jī)會(huì)時(shí)提供參考。

本次Living實(shí)驗(yàn)室的重要成果包括：1）地方當(dāng)局和市政當(dāng)局評(píng)估和開(kāi)發(fā)新的空間政策工具“莊園生態(tài)圈”；2）與Twello莊園景觀的當(dāng)?shù)乩嫦嚓P(guān)者一起完成協(xié)作后，將Twello莊園生態(tài)圈嵌入到區(qū)域遺產(chǎn)保護(hù)和發(fā)展政策中；3）省政府將通過(guò)進(jìn)一步的適用性（設(shè)計(jì)）研究，并與市政當(dāng)局和其他遺產(chǎn)景觀的利益相關(guān)者討論這一概念，探索在該地區(qū)的其他遺產(chǎn)景觀中實(shí)施這一政策工具的可能性。

6 空間設(shè)計(jì)的作用

在這3個(gè)Living實(shí)驗(yàn)室中，設(shè)計(jì)扮演著重要的角色，其以綜合的空間設(shè)計(jì)來(lái)應(yīng)對(duì)上述挑戰(zhàn)的復(fù)雜性。莊園景觀的保護(hù)和發(fā)展所面臨的挑戰(zhàn)對(duì)地方和區(qū)域范圍有所影響，因此建立一個(gè)針對(duì)這些尺度和廣泛利益相關(guān)者的設(shè)計(jì)過(guò)程，被證明將有助于制定設(shè)計(jì)任務(wù)書以及確定潛在空間的效果[23]。我們?cè)贚iving實(shí)驗(yàn)室中采用了結(jié)構(gòu)操作框架，在確保整體研究有序進(jìn)展的同時(shí)，也為正式的設(shè)計(jì)過(guò)程留有發(fā)展空間。共同創(chuàng)作的各階段設(shè)計(jì)活動(dòng)由莊園所有者、區(qū)域和當(dāng)?shù)卣L(fēng)景園林師、專家、學(xué)生和其他參與者共同完成。因此，Living實(shí)驗(yàn)室就像一個(gè)設(shè)計(jì)工作坊，由一系列的公共會(huì)議或研討會(huì)組成。這些會(huì)議或研討會(huì)強(qiáng)調(diào)了設(shè)計(jì)的運(yùn)用，以及在一個(gè)更寬泛、更持久的探索、解決和實(shí)施方案的過(guò)程中融入設(shè)計(jì)。此外，風(fēng)景園林學(xué)生的加入是有價(jià)值的，因?yàn)樗麄兲峁┝诵迈r而公正的視角，并激發(fā)了其他參與者的創(chuàng)造力和想象力。在常規(guī)的官方組織框架之外，在項(xiàng)目中創(chuàng)造這種非正式交流和工作方式很好地適應(yīng)了荷蘭現(xiàn)有的社會(huì)和政治需求：在政策和實(shí)際層面探尋解決方案[23]。

在這種情況下，每個(gè)莊園景觀的設(shè)計(jì)都為人們能夠坐在一起對(duì)話、觀察和建造提供了一個(gè)平臺(tái)，這不僅體現(xiàn)在空間層面，更是在認(rèn)知層面。設(shè)計(jì)通過(guò)研討和實(shí)驗(yàn)不同方面的事物，以此來(lái)幫助聚焦相關(guān)的問(wèn)題或發(fā)展的可能性，并且嘗試探討這些事物會(huì)在什么樣的背景和情景下發(fā)生關(guān)聯(lián)（構(gòu)建想法、認(rèn)知）[24]。設(shè)計(jì)過(guò)程可以明確用戶和利益相關(guān)者在不同尺度上對(duì)未來(lái)發(fā)展的看法。

在室外空間嘗試落實(shí)設(shè)計(jì)理念、功能和需求，可以讓我們發(fā)現(xiàn)項(xiàng)目中的可行性、局限性以及需要進(jìn)一步探索的問(wèn)題[22]。在這方面，設(shè)計(jì)被用來(lái)系統(tǒng)地尋找空間問(wèn)題的可能解決方案，目的是為設(shè)計(jì)師頭腦中尚未存在的問(wèn)題設(shè)想一個(gè)創(chuàng)新的解決方案[22]，同時(shí)，也是讓那些過(guò)去沒(méi)有被人們發(fā)現(xiàn)的解決方案顯現(xiàn)的基礎(chǔ)。比起一個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單的過(guò)程，該設(shè)計(jì)過(guò)程是迭代的，需要經(jīng)過(guò)多輪周期循環(huán)形成。一個(gè)周期基本包括3個(gè)步驟：設(shè)計(jì)想法產(chǎn)生、圖示表達(dá)想法、驗(yàn)證這些被圖示化的設(shè)計(jì)想法，進(jìn)行更正調(diào)試后，再開(kāi)始下一個(gè)循環(huán)[22]。在這個(gè)過(guò)程中，產(chǎn)生了3種認(rèn)知類型：基于項(xiàng)目、基于形態(tài)和基于想法（表1）[22]。

表1 通過(guò)設(shè)計(jì)產(chǎn)生的認(rèn)知類型Tab.1 Types of knowledge generated via design

“基于項(xiàng)目”的相關(guān)知識(shí)主要產(chǎn)生于那些關(guān)注周圍環(huán)境和綜合解決方法的設(shè)計(jì)項(xiàng)目。例如，在Baakse莊園景觀中，景觀導(dǎo)向的設(shè)計(jì)方法有助于理解和創(chuàng)建各個(gè)莊園之間的系統(tǒng)性關(guān)系，通過(guò)激活歷史景觀要素，賦予場(chǎng)所新意義的同時(shí)也加強(qiáng)了水系統(tǒng)的韌性。這不僅僅促進(jìn)了生態(tài)系統(tǒng)，也增強(qiáng)了人在景觀中的空間體驗(yàn)（圖14、15）。而那些看起來(lái)與計(jì)劃相互沖突的利益相關(guān)者，在這個(gè)過(guò)程中則實(shí)現(xiàn)了為彼此助力，就像水資源管理與遺產(chǎn)保護(hù)那樣。

Designing Resilient Heritage Landscapes: A Landscape-based Regional Design Approach for the Preservation and Development of Historical Estate Landscapes

Authors: (NLD) Steffen Nijhuis, (NLD) Paul Thissen, (NLD) Elyze Storms-Smeets Translator: ZHANG Qingran Proofreader: CAI Jiaxiu

1 Introduction

This article contends a landscape-based regional design approach to understanding, planning,and designing cultural heritage landscapes. It elaborates a preservation-through-planning approach that takes spatial development with historical landscape structures as a basis and engages in a process with meaningful stakeholder engagement and visualisation/communication to invent spatial strategies and principles founded on co-creation and collaboration using design research and research through design as an essential means. In this article,we use the protection and development of heritage estate landscapes in the Province of Gelderland, The Netherlands, as an example.

The proposed approach, and the lessons learned from its application, provides valuable clues for the development of methods for management and protection of other cultural heritage landscapes,such as polder landscapes, historical villages and their surroundings, or archaeological landscapes that cannot be protected as a single monument.

In heritage estate landscapes, the regional landscape character is determined by several historic country estates[1]. Here historic castles,country houses and estates together with their gardens, agricultural land, forests, etc. (landed estates) are powerful agents that shaped regions,landscapes and societies across the world. Great examples of these territorial systems can be found in Germany, UK, Belgium, Italy, France, Denmark,Portugal and Spain, but also in Russia, Japan and China, we find beautiful exemplars (Fig. 1, 2)[2-4].Building estates and their landscapes were for centuries dominated by the nobility for whom land ownership was a basis for power[5]. The land was of little use without one or more country houses on it. These were “power houses” for ruling, business and leisure. The estate landscapes are the setting for court or papal residences, hunting lodges and parks, and farming. These are expressions of power that organised the territory in spatial, social, and economic ways. Thus there is a direct relationship between the country estates and the landscape.Here networks of water and roads organised the territory for control, providing resources and good connections to urban centres. Transport networks over land and water allowed the nobility to travel easily between the city and their country estates.

In the Netherlands, there also quite a few estate landscapes located in different parts of the country (Fig. 3). Examples can be found around the cities of Amsterdam and The Hague, but also in the North and East of the country. Here, however,country houses and landed estates are much smaller than most European counterparts. Whereas, for instance, in the UK, estates are regarded as over 1,200 hectares. In the Netherlands, most country estates are between 5 and 200 hectares, with some great landed estates of over 1,000 hectares as exceptions. Despite the modest estate sizes, there is a tremendous regional impact as country houses and estates are often located close together and makeup estate landscapes. Here the identity of the landscape is directly related to the castles, country houses and estates. Inhabitants and visitors highly appreciate these landscapes.

Regarding country houses and estates,the Dutch National Heritage Agency has listed monuments, such as country houses, coach houses,estate farms, tea pavilions, garden ornaments, parks and (parts of) country estates. There are 552 listed country estates in the Netherlands, called complex or ensemble of nationally listed country estates.

The province of Gelderland lies in the east of the centre of the Netherlands. In terms of area(5,137 km2), it is the largest of the twelve provinces of the Netherlands. Gelderland’s 51 municipalities are home to 2 million inhabitants. The region has a varied landscape with forests, large rivers and rural areas. Urban hubs like Arnhem, Nijmegen and Wageningen with international secondary schools and universities support the knowledgebased economy. In Gelderland, over 500 country houses and landed estates exist (Fig. 4). The province of Gelderland has 119 nationally listed country estates or more than a fifth of the national total. Furthermore, for 97 castles and country houses, solely the main building is listed as national monuments.

The area has been popular amongst the landed elite since the late Middle Ages. Particularly around the provincial capital of Arnhem (called Gelders Arcadia), along the river IJssel and in the easternmost part of the province, known as Graafschap (county). The undulating landscape,the rivers and brooks, and the fertile lands proved to be ideal for making the agricultural lands and aesthetic parks. Castles, country houses and landed estates still adorn the province, of which twothirds are currently still privately owned (Fig. 5).Others are owned by trusts (such as the Gelderland Trust), state organisations and governments, and commercial businesses.

These estate landscapes represent: 1) They constitute high heritage values, including monumental buildings, gardens and other landscape elements; 2)Valuable nature is concentrated in these landscapes.Nature and cultural landscapes retained their identity,much more than in other landscapes; 3) The estate landscapes offer plentiful opportunities for tourism,recreation and sport; 4) The concentrations of historic castles, country houses and landed estates are of high economic value.

In terms of conservation and protection of estates, there is a long tradition in the Netherlands,but since the 1930s, people have turned away from the estate landscapes in their entirety[1]. The focus is on the building as a monument and not on the building in the landscape context. For sustainable conservation and development of castles, country houses, and estates, it is crucial to understand them in their landscape context. This is to relate individual country houses to their immediate surroundings — garden, park, grounds — and on a regional scale, where ensembles of several country houses are considered in their surroundings. In historic estate landscapes, the buildings and other functions are interwoven with the landscape, as it were. They are part of the whole from which they derive their picturesque effect, which they in turn partly give back to the whole[1].

Climate change has a significant effect on the water management of estate landscapes, especially the abundance and shortage of water, and causes changes in vegetation due to temperature increases.At the same time, the pressure is increasing due to ongoing urbanisation and related recreational needs. Also, rural landscapes have to deal with spatial fragmentation due to urbanisation, changing ownership, change of function, etc. The complexity of these challenges needs a regional perspective or “helicopter view” to understand the coherence and systemic relationships between the estates and find common ground in which stakeholders can work together. In such an approach, knowledge of the landscape structure and coherence are linked to development opportunities of country houses through design research and design thinking across scales. Nevertheless, how can we understand estate landscapes from a spatial point of view?Furthermore, how can we apply this knowledge in protecting and future-proofing them?

2 Estate Landscapes as Cultural Landscape

Estate landscapes were not only expressions of investment, enjoyment, or power; they are also genuinely cultural landscapes. A standard definition of cultural landscape is adopted by the Council of Europe: “an area, as perceived by people, whose character is the result of the action and interaction of natural and/or human factors.”[6]This definition emphasises two aspects: landscape as the result of interaction humans with their environment and the dynamic nature of the landscape.

Landscape changes with and without human intervention. Sometimes the changes are farreaching, sometimes less so. Some changes, such as the consequences of climate change, take a long time to become visible. Nevertheless, change can also occur swiftly, as when a new housing development is built in a former agricultural area.This is why landscape can be conceived as a living system, which is to say, a complex and dynamic network of subsystems that are constantly changing in response to natural processes, social demands and technical possibilities. In this perspective, we should understand estate landscapes as an interface between nature and society, which manifests itself in a material space of both structures and processes.

A practical and widely used method entails analysing the landscape in layers and organising them according to the influence and dynamics of change[7].Unpacking the estate landscape in layers is a way of grasping the different systems and subsystems and their relationships. This dissection into layers should not be seen as a static or hierarchical arrangement. Instead, it is about discrete layers that influence one another to a greater or lesser degree,and that influence may also change with time. Here the relation between the layers of the physical environment (hardware), human activity (software),and cultural, institutional and conceptual ideas(orgware) is regarded as essential to understanding the estate landscape and its genesis[8](Fig. 6).

2.1 Natural Context

The natural context is relief, water, soil,geological substructure and climate, and the connected ecosystems. The natural context should not be regarded as a discrete factor but as a central and inextricable component of the system that determines how the landscape can be used. The dynamics of this primary condition are characterised by a slow, often almost imperceptible,process of change, repetition and natural cycles.

2.2 Human Modifications and Interventions

Human activity is part and parcel of using the natural context for living, working and recreation.Human beings appropriate the natural environment through agriculture, building country estates and their gardens, road building, canalisation of watercourses, etc. Throughout history, that appropriation process has led to a succession of sometimes drastic changes in the landscape.

2.3 Culture, Organisation and Politics

This layer comprises the cultural, spiritual and religious conceptions of the natural context and our engagement with it, including the state of science and technology, organisational forms,political movements, design concepts and aesthetic ideals. Water, for example, has different meanings in different cultures, which can find expression in landscape architectural treatments in parks and gardens. The dynamics of this layer relate to the relatively short term, linked to people and politics.

An understanding of estate landscapes is inherent to the concept of the layers and their relationships that constitute the landscape system(Fig. 7). The estate landscape is a relational structure that connects and influences scales and spatial,ecological, functional and social entities. The estate landscape is a holistic system and a scale continuum that we can only understand by looking at different spatial scales and their relationships. That is to say that individual country houses, together with their gardens, parks and grounds, make up an estate, and that multiple estates make up an estate landscape,and the estate landscapes make up a region (Fig. 8)①.Thus country estates are part of a scale-continuum in which relationships are shaped via the attachment,connection, and embedment of a specific site or location into the broader context at different scale levels.

3 Estate Landscapes as History

Time is an essential factor in understanding estate landscapes. Over time estates landscape underwent transformations resulting from selections based on possibilities and evaluation.Some structures, patterns, and forms were preserved; others continue to develop or are replaced by new ones, resulting in a rich historical and typological variation[8]. Spatial transformation or series of transformations usually balance more permanent landscape structures and others more prone to rapid change[9]. The more permanent ones tend to be resistant to change and, over time,become more robust (and even inert). Those asynchronous transformations turn the landscape into a layered whole in which physical traces of time can reinforce or contradict one another[10].

Broadly three critical phases of estate building can be identified in Gelderland: 1) Middle Ages—1600: castles with large landed estates for nobility (landed elite); 2) 1600—1800: country houses and estates for city regents; 3) 1800—1940:smaller country houses for elite borne of finance,commerce and industry.

These phases provide a window on a range of chronologies, events and meanings that connect the traditional and the contemporary, the tangible and the intangible. In that respect, an estate landscape is so rich in meaning that it can be “read” as a biography, as a palimpsest that illustrates the key activities that have contributed to the formation of that landscape[11-12].

Key to the estate landscape as history is the notion of the Longue durée, the landscape as a long-term structure that changes over time in the process of “sequent occupance”[13-14]. A knowledge of these historical traces is one of the starting points for new transformations of the estate landscape: the addition of new “l(fā)ayers”. The evolution of the estate landscape is inherent in the“erasure” and the “writing” of history. As we see it now, the estate landscape results from a gradual process of selection in which some elements remain, and others change or are replaced.

Time is an essential factor in understanding estate landscapes. Over time estates landscape underwent transformations resulting from selections based on possibilities and evaluation.Some structures, patterns, and forms were preserved; others continue to develop or are replaced by new ones, resulting in a rich historical and typological variation. Spatial transformation or series of transformations usually balance more permanent landscape structures and others more prone to rapid change. The more permanent ones tend to be resistant to change and, over time,become more robust (and even inert). Those asynchronous transformations turn the landscape into a layered whole in which physical traces of time can reinforce or contradict one another.

4 Towards Resilient Heritage Estate Landscapes

Climate change, increasing tourism demands,etc., calls for a careful approach because rapid spatial development and functional change can compromise the layering and legibility of the estate landscape. There is a danger that the cultural identity will disappear. To avoid this requires a “management of change” approach to create a future-proof estate landscape in which the past, in one form or another, continues to play an appropriate role[15].This demands a dynamic and political process that is not confined to the domain of the landscape experts but in which estate owners, government officials, business, local stakeholders are also actively involved. Adaptive planning and design is a powerful vehicle to foster socio-ecological inclusivity, diversity and flexibility. The overall aim of adaptive planning and design is to increase the resiliency and adaptive capacity of heritage estate landscapes by establishing communities of practice, where thinking together and generation and implementation of sustainable solutions at different scale levels are central and is facilitated by research and design, meaningful stakeholder involvement and visualisation/communication (Fig. 9)[16].

Resilience is defined as the capacity of a system to respond to change or disturbance without changing its primary state[17]. Adaptation is the degree to which adjustments are possible in practices, processes, or structures of systems to projected or actual climate changes. Adaptation can be spontaneous or planned and can be carried out in response to or anticipating changes in conditions[18]. This implies a proper understanding of how natural and systems function and a forward-looking, pro-active approach that guides,harmonises, and shapes changes and dynamics in the estate landscape, which are brought about by social, economic, and environmental processes.Such an adaptive planning and design process is based on four iterative phases: collecting information, gaining understanding, plan development, and action perspective (Fig. 10)[16].

The assumption is that through a designoriented multi-scale and transdisciplinary approach,resiliency and adaptive capacity can be built up in terms of the development of spatial structures and people, business, knowledge, and governance.Doing so can steer transformative spatial processes through a combination of sector activities aimed towards more coordinated sustainable outcomes.Landscape-based regional design is considered to be an essential strategy for developing resiliency and adaptive capacity by[19]: 1) Taking the landscape form and process as fundament; physiology of the natural and estate landscape as a guide to shaping spatial transformations; 2) Creating and regenerating living systems; (bio)diversity and multi-functionality as the basis for socio-ecological inclusive and water sensitive estate landscapes;3) Developing of resilient and adaptive spatial frameworks; strong structures for the coherent development of the region (long-term strategy)while setting conditions for local projects (short term intervention); 4) A design-oriented multiscale and transdisciplinary approach: knowledgebased spatial design as integrating practice,involving people, academia, business, professionals,government officials.

Resiliency and adaptive capacity also require building an adaptable social infrastructure to assure meaningful participation and achieve equity in the face of socio-economic change and disturbance and meaningful participation by stakeholders in planning and policy decisions[20]. Biodiversity,modularity, and tight feedback can strengthen resilience capacity, social capital, slow variables and thresholds, and innovation[17]. Resilience capacity is well-suited to an adaptive approach to planning and design. Innovation is pursued through responsible experimentation, developing a culture of monitoring,and learning from modest failures[20]. This can be achieved by setting up a living laboratory where thinking together, generation and implementation of sustainable solutions are central and is facilitated by research and design, meaningful stakeholder involvement and visualisation/communication. The living lab or community of practice can be considered both physical location and joint approach. Citizens,academia, business and policymakers experiment,co-create, and test in a life-like environment, defined by geographical and institutional boundaries[21]. But how does this work in practice?

5 Three Living Labs as Learning Cases

The present-day challenges that face historic estates are manifold. Together with local stakeholders, such as estate owners, heritage experts, municipalities, water boards, and the Provincial Authority, we identified three significant present-day challenges for protecting and developing the estate landscapes in Gelderland:climate adaptation, heritage tourism, and spatial fragmentation due to urbanisation. How can these challenges be met with respect for the heritage values? We presume that these challenges cannot be solved on a single estate but require a landscapebased regional approach. This presumption implies a role for (governmental) organisations that work on the regional scale, such as the provincial government and the water boards.

In order to be able to set up a living lab that can involve local stakeholders, address specific issues,and generate solutions utilising the landscape-based regional design approach, we connected the main challenges to three particular estate landscapes. This resulted in the setup of the following three living labs: 1) Climate adaptation: heritage estate landscape Baakse Beek; 2) Heritage tourism: heritage estate landscape Gelders Arcadia; 3) Spatial fragmentation:heritage estate landscape Twello.

In these three living labs, local stakeholders,experts, and students from TU Delft identified each region’s specific problems and potentials and generated ideas for future development. Each living lab provided a platform to collaborate,co-create and experiment while using real cases and implementing solutions. Each of these labs has its own set of stakeholders and its dynamic,and most of them are still running. The labs are also connected to the EU-Interreg project Innocastle which gave the opportunity to exchange experiences in a European context.

The three living labs are learning cases that shed light on how to deal with specific challenges and enabled us to explore the power of research through design[22]. Moreover, to discuss and improve government agencies’ role in maintaining,developing, and improving historic country houses,castles, and landed estates in a landscape context.

5.1 Climate Adaptation in the Heritage Estate Landscape of the Baakse Beek Area

This living lab addresses the significance of the estate heritage for water issues, particularly climate adaptation: dealing with long periods of drought and occasionally heavy rain in the estate environment.Objectives include: making heritage part of changing the water system towards climate adaptivity, finding out what role the regional authority can play best,and introducing landscape design as a contribution to move from analysis to solutions.

The Baakse Beek area consists of landed estates and agricultural land, interconnected by the Baakse Beek, a brook (small river, Fig. 11).The majority of the estates date back to Medieval times. Trust organisations own some, but most of them are privately owned. Most of the estates are A-listed as ensembles of buildings, gardens, parks and water features. In recent years, climate changes have led to long periods of drought and short intervals of intense rainfall. In order to address this issue, the living lab looked at the significance of the estate heritage for water issues. The regional water authority and the municipality, and private and other owners collaborate to find solutions for present-day challenges on water management,nature, and agriculture. The focus is on water retention within the context of historic water management structures in the estate landscapes.

The learning case of Baakse Beek showcases that an estate landscape such as this one has many opportunities to combine and connect various themes: nature, heritage, water management,exchange of landed property. Spatial quality is a primary condition in addressing the present-day challenges at estates. There is also an opportunity for tourism and recreation. The living lab shows that the multi-scale spatial approach facilitates integral short- and long term solutions that the joint efforts of landowners can only achieve,the water board, nature conservation groups and the regional authority. The following actions are the result of this collaboration: 1) They are developing and implementing a joint regional water management plan. Historical landscape structures and cultural elements are rehabilitated and play a role in buffering and retaining water in the region.2) Setting up monitoring-pilot of the impact of drought on the heritage of country houses and historic estates that make up the estate landscape;3) Identify situations in estate zones where construction measures need to be implemented to solve problems caused by drought.

5.2 Heritage Tourism and Spatial Quality in the Estate Landscape Gelders Arcadia

In the estate landscape Gelder’s Arcadia(Fig. 12), the municipalities of Arnhem, Renkum,Rheden, Rozendaal and Wageningen and owners such as Middachten and the Gelderland Trust work on finding a good balance between strengthening heritage tourism in the estate landscape and preserving heritage values. Objectives include the development of Gelders Arcadia into a coherent publicly accessible experience zone that links the heritage of castles and rural estates to the qualities of landscape and nature. Including the broadening and deepening of heritage tourism by telling stories of Gelders Arcadia, among them power landscapes and WWII, through the provincial tourist theme“Power and Splendor”. However, the development of a realistic model of organisation based on cooperation between the main stakeholders, the municipalities, heritage owners and entrepreneurs.

Characterised by the relief of the ice-pushed ridge (Veluwezoom), the area was popular among the Dutch elite from the Middle Ages onwards.Medieval castles and landed estates, 18th-century regent country estates and modern 19th- and 20thcentury country houses can be found. In total, over one hundred country and landed estates have been identified. Also, important landscape architecture heritage can be found here, like one of the first landscape gardens in the Netherlands, Beekhuizen,near Biljoen.

Special features in this estate landscape are the landscape structures created by the stadtholders and their noble friends, such as the so-called King’s roads. Stadtholder king William III constructed long roads on the Veluwe, his hunting grounds, to connect various hunting lodges and castles. The maintenance and touristic promotion of such“power landscapes” are complex as the King’s roads are owned by various private and institutional owners and are situated in several municipalities.A joint vision and management are challenging to realise. Also, not many (heritage) tourists are aware of the history of these power landscapes. The features are not always well recognisable.

The continuity of initiatives is demanding as the partnerships arise with temporary projects but standstill at the end of a project. The five municipalities try to take the lead, but this is not an easy task. Estate landscapes have a positive effect on regional economic benefits and can strengthen regional heritage tourism. Heritage tourism can also be a valuable source of income to estate owners,thus helping to sustain these estates. A regional tourism vision is necessary.

The learning case of Gelders Arcadia showcases that a regional partnership on estate landscapes, in which both estate owners and authorities participate,can be successful in the exchange of knowledge and experiences. Entrepreneurs (museums, hotels,restaurants etc.) are interested in a regional approach and willing to participate. At the same time, no one wants to take the lead towards regional tourism.Therefore the role of the provincial government is crucial to initiate, stimulate and facilitate regional development. In order to do so, the following actions are taken: 1) Ensuring continuity in regional collaboration in Gelders Arcadia by setting up a foundation or trust; 2) Setting up a joint touristic approach to the power landscapes of Gelders Arcadia,enabling local country house owners to participate;3) Setting up a joint management plan for the King’s Road to distinguish possible challenges, opportunities,solutions and collaborations.

5.3 Spatial Fragmentation of the Country and Landed Estates in the Estate Landscape Twello

This living lab is about combatting spatial fragmentation of the estate landscape of Twello in the middle of the urban triangle Apeldoorn-Zutphen-Deventer (Fig. 13). Spatial fragmentation has occurred through infrastructural and urban expansion. Here the regional authorities, the municipality and owners around Twello worked on strengthening the spatial cohesion of the estate zone. The goal is to keep the estate landscape as a whole as there is a risk that fragmentation increases and quality disappears. This living lab is established to help the municipality create new local legislation for the protection and development,facilitate collaboration between various owners and governments, and develop a joint estate landscape management plan.

The region around Twello is described as“the green heart of the city triangle” enclosed by the cities of Apeldoorn, Deventer and Zutphen.The area offers various landscapes in the high sand transition area from the Veluwe to the IJssel Valley.The beauty of this rural area was recognised early on. In the 18thand 19thcentury wealthy families from the surrounding cities bought plots of land to build country houses and country estates.Twello has an expansive- ranging estate landscape(also called the Green Carré), full of monumental buildings in a park-like landscape. This rich cultural history is a crucial part of the region’s identity that it wants to retain and – where possible –strengthen. This estate landscape is threatened by building roads and houses.

A common goal and plan are needed and make sure to keep this alive through an active community. Therefore, new legislation is in place to reinforce the character of the area and recognise the estate landscape as a quality zone. In all new developments, the spatial quality and the cultural values should be leading. This requires knowledge of the collection rather than knowledge of the individual monuments. For this reason, it is vital to create awareness amongst the community and involvement of the public: creating awareness of the history and future of the area (the potential opportunities). It is also crucial to bring the different parties together. This can be used as a base to develop the area. However, it is vital to not only talk about quality but other interests as well. Economic arguments, for example, can convince some people who are not interested in the heritage argument. In addition, collaboration on maintenance is cheaper.

This learning case Twello showcases that where regional authorities, estate owners and the municipality of Voorst closely collaborate, new spatial policy tools can be developed to protect and develop the heritage qualities of the estate landscape. In this case, the concept of the “estate biotope” was explored further. The estate biotope helps define the existing country and landed estates and connecting areas, areas with opportunities to strengthen the estate landscape (often former estate lands), and areas with a “sphere of influence”.The estate biotope identifies essential aspects of the country houses’ location and orientation and landscape architecture composition elements such as lanes and vistas. Having this information is vital for the municipality to preserve the estate landscape and individual estates’ existing estate qualities and helps to offer insights when investigating new development opportunities.

Important outcomes of this living lab include:1) The regional authorities and municipality will evaluate and develop the new policy tool ‘estate biotope’ together with local stakeholders of the estate landscape Twello; 2) When finalised,embedment of the estate biotope Twello in the regional policy on heritage protection and development; 3) The province will explore the possibility to implement this policy instrument also in other heritage landscapes in the region through further (design) research on applicability and meetings to discuss the concept with municipalities and stakeholders in the other estate landscapes;

6 The Role of Spatial Design

In the three living labs, design plays an essential role to get a grip on the complexity of the mentioned challenges and addressing them in an integrated and spatial way. The challenges for the preservation and development of the heritage estate landscapes have impacts that cut across local to regional scales, so setting up a design process that addresses these scales and engages a wide range of relevant stakeholders proved helpful for formulating design briefs and identifying potential spatial outcomes[23]. In the living lab, a structured but informal design process was employed. Various co-creation rounds are gone through by estate owners, regional and local authorities, landscape designers, experts, students,and other participants. As such, the living lab was like a design studio that consisted of a range of public meetings or workshops that addressed the challenges of utilising design and integrates them into a more extensive and more protracted process of developing solutions and implementing them. Also, the input of landscape architecture design student was valuable as they provided fresh,unbiased perspectives and stimulated the creativity and imagination of the involved participants. The informal space created, independent of everyday hierarchies, fits in well with the social and political conditions needed to generate solution on a policy level and practical levels[23].

In this context, the design outcomes for each estate landscape provided a context for conversation, observation and construction, not only in spatial terms but also in cognitive terms.The design helps to set the problem or possibility by “naming” the things that will be attended to and frame the context in which they will be attended(framing of thoughts)[24]. The design process identifies what users and stakeholders think about future developments at different scale levels.

Positioning ideas, programs, and demands in outdoor space make it possible to discover the possibilities, limitations, and questions that call for further exploration[22]. Designing in this regard is employed as a systematic search for possible solutions to a spatial problem. This activity aims to visualise an innovative solution to a problem that does not yet exist in the designer’s mind[22]. It is also the base for the representation of solutions that were not previously visible. Rather than a straightforward process, the design is iterative and runs through various cycles of idea formation,drawing up representations and testing visualised ideas[22]. While going through this process, three types of knowledge were generated: project-based,form-based, or idea-based (Tab. 1)[22].

Project-based knowledge generated by design concerns the situation in its surroundings and the integrated solutions provided for it. In the estate landscape Baakse Beek, for instance, the landscapebased design approach helped to understand and create systemic relations amongst the individual estates in order to increase the sponge capacity of the water system while re-activating historical landscape elements, but also to boost the ecosystem and the spatial experience within the landscape(Fig. 14, 15). Seemingly conflicting agendas and stakeholders, such as water management and heritage protection, strengthened each other.

Form-based knowledge involves visual communication and the materialisation of the design (that is, how can it be created?). Here the assessment, exploration and realisation of qualities of landscaping schemes and technical constructions are explored further. For instance, different sets of landscape design principles were developed and tested through design. Design principle refers to a basic idea or rule that explains or controls how something happens or works. Examples include design principles for sustainable water management,nature-based solutions, historical ecology, etc. These design principles were derived from field study,precedent study and conversations with heritage,water and ecology experts (Fig. 16). Through design explorations and “drawing and calculating”procedures, the possibilities of the design principles are contextualised and tested (Fig. 17).

Last but not least, the design studios resulted in idea-based knowledge. Ideas-based knowledge consists of creative, intuitive, and speculative knowledge and the structured knowledge that results in a spatial strategy. In the living labs, it became vital to understand that individual country estates are part of a regional landscape system.While working on individual estates, one can contribute to regional structures and processes. The regional design explorations are based on a proper assessment of the situation by all stakeholders; the problem is structured and defined based on the feasible solutions that have been proposed (Fig. 18).

Reflecting on the process and the outcomes,the observation is that landscape architects can make valuable contributions in all phases of a living lab if they have an affinity for strategic thinking and acting in a political context, in addition to the power of imagination. In the context of historical estate landscape protection and development,design can describe prospective futures based on new forms of collaboration between stakeholders and expertise from more extensive civic and professional networks.

7 In conclusion

Though the regional authority has a successful program of investing in (built and green) monuments,some challenges cannot be met by this policy, e.g.the problem of drought that affects the gardens and parks of individual rural estates can only be solved by a regional approach since the water system is a regional one. Moreover, the challenge of durable tourism cannot be met by an individual country estate but also requires a regional approach that connects interesting places by routes through attractive landscapes. Furthermore, there is increasing use of parks and forests for recreational use in the presentday corona crisis, with lockdowns and closed gyms. A regional approach for spreading visitors is needed.

That is why a landscape-based regional design approach has been introduced. This implies a spatial approach to heritage, specifically to country houses,castles and estates, analysing historical and modern developments and processes on various spatial levels in a landscape context. A spatial view focuses upon how different actors and forces interact in particular places, shaping the character of these places yet at the same time being shaped by them. Furthermore,it explores how more comprehensive processes influence developments in a particular place at a local, regional and provincial level. A spatial approach can also help governments stimulate conservation and innovation processes of country houses and estates, thereby connecting goals and challenges on a regional level to those on a local level. By taking a spatial approach, one will look at particular places (country houses and estates) and the space in which these places exist: the social,economic and political contexts of the region.

This approach also increases the resiliency and adaptive capacity of the estate landscapes by providing a perspective on protection and development through design. In this regard,regional landscape design is a valuable tool to address climate adaptation, tourism, and spatial fragmentation of heritage estates landscapes. The key is that understanding estate landscapes as systems are the basis for identifying spatial design principles that address multiple scales ranging from individual estates, ensembles of estates to regional structures and processes. The designoriented living labs proved to be a handy platform to learn based on current challenges, together with owners, municipalities and other stakeholders. It also helped build an adaptable social infrastructure to assure meaningful participation by stakeholders in planning and policy decisions. Here regional authorities, local private and institutional landowners, students and experts have been working together in regional estate research,design and policy-making, and educational and art projects. The findings of the living labs support the regional authority in renewing their heritage policy program and provide regulations and subsidies to contribute to the protection and development of future-proof heritage estate landscapes.

The presented approach is also applicable to other cultural heritage landscapes such as polder landscapes, archaeological landscapes that cannot be protected as monuments, historical villages and their surroundings etc. These valuable cultural heritage landscapes must be safeguarded too. The discussed planning preservation-through-planning approach and knowledge development can provide clues for preserving and transforming them in ways which acknowledge and cultivate their local variation and regional coherence. The cases from Gelderland illustrate that a preservation-throughplanning approach that takes spatial development with historical landscape structures as a basis and engages in a process with meaningful stakeholder engagement can successfully lead to future-proof and resilient heritage landscapes.
