牛场艺术园是前马头角动物检疫站（牛场）后部的振兴工程。新艺术公园为香港九龙城区的Kwa Wan提供了一个人口稠密的住宅区的开放空间。
The Cattle Depot Art Park, is a revitalization project for the Rear Portion of the former Ma Tau Kok Animal Quarantine Depot (Cattle Depot). The new Art Park provides an open space for the heavily populated residential region in To Kwa Wan of Kowloon City District in Hong Kong.
牛场建于1908年，是屠宰场和检疫基地。2001年，前面的部分被翻新并改建成一个艺术家村，而后面的部分在1999年整个牛场关闭后就被遗弃了。棚顶结构全部拆除，场地整体布置，棚子和食槽的柱子留下了。自从随后，自然植被接管并与剩余的建筑融为一体，形成了一个独特的地方，这种精神（随自然转化）被尊为公园设计的指导思想。
The Cattle Depot site was built in 1908 as a slaughter house and quarantine base. The Front Portion was renovated and converted into an Artist Village in 2001.The Rear Portion became abandoned since the entire Cattle Depot closed down in 1999. All roof structures of the sheds were demolished with the overall setting of the site, the columns of the sheds and the feeding troughs remained.Since then natural vegetation took over and became well integrated with the remaining structures.A unique place was formed and this spirit behind (transforming with nature) is respected as the guiding concept in designing the Park.
Design Concept:
将自然与建筑融为一体，遵循遗址壮丽之地的“精神”；采用新的设计和施工技术来表达时代的“精神”；尊重现有的遗产元素和遗址，使隐藏的实体再次可见；激发游客从不同角度欣赏和体验公园环境。
To follow the “Spirit” of the spectacular place of the site by integrating nature and architecture into a holistic entity;To express the “Spirit” of the era by adopting new design and construction technologies;To respect the existing heritage elements and the loci, to make the hidden entities visible again;To stimulate the visitors to appreciate and experience the park environment from different viewpoints.
许多定义人物的元素（CDE）如砖墙、柱子和金属环等，都被妥善保存或恢复活力，以供欣赏解释。新的建筑和公园特色旨在通过引入新的视角来提高遗产设置和CDE的可见性，如头顶反射、潜望镜、广角镜头、穿孔板、雕塑公园家具等。
Many character-defining elements (CDE) such as brick walls, columns and metal rings which remain in the Cattle Depot are duly preserved or revitalized for appreciation and interpretation.New architecture and park features are designed to enhance the visibility of the heritage setting and CDEs by introducing new angles of vision, such as overhead reflection, periscopic viewers, wide angle lenses, perforated panels, sculptural park furniture, etc.
