城市的物质空间是生活基础设施的集合。 基础设施（Infrastructure）的英文前缀“Infra”指代“底层”，概括了人们对于这些设施系统的基本理解，即它们是容易被忽略的，或存在于地下，又或是处于视野之外的。 对基础设施的这种定义，体现的是其单一的功能性，一种与商业，文化和生态的机械关系，以及对地理和自然系统的工程式的理解。

对基础设施的这种定义，体现的是其单一的功能性，一种与商业，文化和生态的机械关系，以及对地理和自然系统的工程式的理解。
设计行业的机会来自于重新想象基础设施在城市中扮演的角色，并拓展我们对基础设施本身的理解。
从“底层”引入这些设施，使其成为生命和生活的基础。将文化和生态系统融合到功能框架中。最终从无数的基础设施——包括公园，街道，水系统，基站，电网等——中创造出一个充满活力的系统。以颂扬活动和文化，减少人类活动对气候环境的长期影响，并将我们与我们赖以生存的生态系统连接起来。

The physical city is a collective infrastructure for living. Infra—meaning below—epitomizes our fundamental understanding of these systems, that they are not to be seen, they exist below the ground, or below our vision. This approach to infrastructure assumes a singular functionality, a mechanistic relationship to commerce, culture and ecology, and an engineered understanding of geography and natural systems.
The opportunity for the design community is to reimagine the role infrastructure plays in our cities—and to expand our understanding of the idea of infrastructure itself. To bring infrastructure from “below” and make it an infrastructure for life and living. To blend cultural and ecological systems into the framework of functionality. And to ultimately create a vibrant system out of the myriad of infrastructures—parks, streets, water systems, cell towers, electrical grids—that celebrate life and culture, reduce our long-term impacts on the climate, and connect us to ecological systems that sustain us.

Spackman Mossop Michaels is an award-winning international office for urban strategy and landscape architecture. Our mission is to create places that people love to use every day. We believe that as designers of public space we have a responsibility to transform the mundane into an extraordinary and meaningful experience.
Our approach to design is driven by a deep understanding of how the natural, social and cultural environments contribute to the design of the built environment as well as the technical realities of a project. We are focused on finding creative solutions that enrich the urban environment.
Our approach is both pragmatic and visionary in its search for new multi-functional and responsive urban systems. As we continue to work in the public realm, it is increasingly important to us that our work is both effective socially, and accessible to diverse communities.
Our practices in Sydney and New Orleans comprise teams of landscape architects, urban designers, architects, and planners committed to delivering high-quality outcomes. We take a multi-disciplinary approach to design and urbanism and the practice has extensive experience in small and large-scale master planning and design of multi-functional urban infrastructure.
