Nature Linked with the City
The Urban Design of Lianyungang Beigushan Area based on the New 3EOD Perspective
This design is based on the planning and design of the site under the perspective of 3EOD, i.e. ‘Ecological’, ‘Electronic’, ‘Equitable’. To transform the site in three modules: ecological, electronic and equitable.
Urban construction often disconnects nature, so the ‘Ecological’ aspect of this site links nature and landscape to the urban site through different levels of greenery and ecological corridors, and integrates nature into the city through sustainable energy use in construction, new materials for buildings, and vertical and rooftop greening.
‘Electronic’: Digital detection and digital model management to enhance information exchange and facilitate services for the public.
‘Equitable’: The site's green spaces and waterfronts will be equally accessible to everyone, and the links between each site and the waterfront will be strengthened, while shared spaces will be provided.

Reclamation History
In 1932, Dapu Port gradually silted up with many shallow shoals in the river, making it impossible for thousand ton ships to enter the port . Forcing the Longhai Railway East extending the old kiln while accelerating the construction of the dock.
In 1933, the Dutch, who were contracted for the port construction project , threw stones and filled the sea in the " Old Kiln " , and the construction of the Lianyun Port began . In November of the same year, the cargo ship " Tonghua " from China Merchants Group docked Sunjiashan Temporary Wharf , thenLianyungang Port officially opened
When Lianyungang was liberated in 1948, the harbour was in a state of disrepair and the Lianyungang Harbour Office was established. Three large-scale constructions were carried out after the opening of the harbour in June of the following year.
In 1980, Lianyungang basically completed the transformation of the old port area. The barren land, once devoid of any industry or agriculture, has been built to promote the economic development of Lianyungang.
In December 2023, the second phase of the 300,000-tonne waterway project in Lianyungang Port passed the completion inspection and acceptance organised by Jiangsu Provincial Department of Transport.
YUNTAI MOUNTAIN
Mountains There are no abundant public services and venues inside the site, and the only places outside the site are the Government in the north and the Lianyun District
in the south, which take more than 10 minutes to reach by people inside the site.
Problem: Natural Aspects
The site is characterised by the intersection of wasteland, buildings and green spaces. At the same time, the green space within the site is not connected to the outside green space, and it is in an isolated state. The urban design process of natural langue can be interrupted by buildings or hard paving. This prevents the formation of a continuous landscape strip.The problem of broken natural links is further exacerbated as urbanisation progresses.

02 Designing a Digital Nomad Town for Hangzhou Iron and Steel Factory
Based on the In-depth Exploration of the Psychology of Digital Nomads
Gongshu District, Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, China
Dr. Li Lan (Associate Professor)

I n recent years, there has been a surge of digital nomads in China, and by the end of 2023, the number of digital nomads and potential digital nomads in mainland China will be approximately between 70 million and 100 million. The current society can only meet the basic material needs of digital nomads for work, housing and living, but cannot solve the problems of digital nomads' emotional dilemmas , such as loneliness and anxiety. Hangzhou's youth population faces multiple pressures, which are centred on the economy, employment, cost of living and mental health.
A gainst this backdrop, choosing to be a digital nomad has become a way of ‘escaping the corporate world and exploring the inner world’ as a way of combating the increasing involution of work and life
T he project is located at the former Mid-levels Steel Factory in Gongshu District, Hangzhou, and makes use of its unique industrial heritage to create an exclusive work-life recreational space for digital nomads . Through innovative designs such as natural mountain hydrotherapy, go-karting, meta-universe living community, short-term preferential huts, and movable work-life snail barn, the project provides digital nomads with perfect social and employment security. A movable snail barn is set up in the community to enable digital nomads to quickly achieve work-life rotation. Satisfy digital nomads' needs for healthy food and deep interpersonal connections by creating places such as digital farmland, a DIY mutual help cooking area, a shared canteen, and the Dunbar Digital Social Plaza.

Analysis of Sources of Pressure
The sources of pressure for Hangzhou citizens are divided into the economic downturn, unfavourable forms of industry development, and the increase in the cost of living; students face the pressure of further education; young people lack employment opportunities; and the old-age security policy is still not perfect.

The first modern iron and steel enterprise in Zhejiang Province--Zhejiang Iron and Steel Works started construction at the foot of Hangzhou Mid-levels. This marks the end of the history of no iron and steel production in Zhejiang and the beginning of the iron and steel industry.
Mid-levels Iron and Steel Works was renamed Hangzhou Iron and Steel Works. Through continuous development, Hangzhou Iron and Steel Works became the first modern iron and steel enterprise in Zhejiang Province, and was known as ‘Ten Mile Steel City’ in its heyday.
The first phase of the comprehensive protection project for the former industrial site of Hangzhou Iron and Steel (HIS), constructed by China Construction Third Bureau (CSCB) East China, has begun to protect and renovate the Hangzhou Iron and Steel Mid-Levels Steel Base.

Retain significant buildings and structures on the site and demolish old buildings.
Extend blankets from different main buildings to different functional areas and connect them inward.
The main building is connected to the exterior through an entrance plaza.
The site zoning is fragmented, making it impossible to form large-scale connections. By changing the form of mountains and rivers, connecting them with water bodies and wetlands, and changing the connection form of squares and the shape.
planting or water purification should be carried out in highly polluted areas of the site.
Design the main transportation routes for the park and connect the main functional areas.
Ultimately, it forms an organizational form of architecture and environmental landscape, with nested inner and outer gardens.
On this basis, connecting small road traffic and utilizing the concept of "virtual entry" in Chinese gardens, a dynamic and organized road network is formed.
In order to meet the needs of rapid transportation, the park's structures are connected, corridors are constructed, and multi-level three-dimensional transportation is created.

Designing for a part-time economy on Chunxi Road
Amid the economic downturn, more people are seeking flexible work arrangements, with part-time jobs becoming increasingly popular.
Chunxi Road, a high-end pedestrian street in Chengdu , offers rich commercial resources and high foot traffic, making it an ideal location for part-time work opportunities . However, its traditional functions are often limited, lacking spaces that support diverse work styles and groups
This project envisions Chunxi Road as a multifunctional urban space that blends work, consumption, and leisure, providing convenient workspaces for part-time workers
The design includes flexible workstations, temporary stalls, event plazas, and leisure cafés, with a focus on adaptability to meet the needs of part-time workers while enhancing the experience for both tourists and locals Infrastructure such as Wi-Fi and charging stations will support short-term work and freelance projects.
The goal is to transform Chunxi Road into a vibrant, inclusive space that not only serves as a commercial hub but also supports the part-time economy. By offering flexible workspaces, the project aims to create more economic opportunities for citizens while maximizing the value of the pedestrian street and revitalizing the city.

and visitors.
Step 6: Integrate the design of key demonstration areas along Chunxi Road to extend the impact of the part-time economic model across a broader region.
This involves creating cohesive design elements and strategic layouts that connect various zones, encouraging the flow of people and activities. By enhancing the visibility and accessibility of part-time vendors and pop-up events, the aim is to cultivate a vibrant economic ecosystem that benefits surrounding areas and fosters community engagement.
Spaces between buildings, often underused urban walkways or green areas, can be transformed into low-cost business opportunities for part-timers and small entrepreneurs with flexible, mobile stalls. Regular markets or cultural events can attract more people, creating a lively mix of business and leisure.
Street-facing spaces like sidewalks, plazas,
Corner public spaces, though small, enhance urban life by offering accessible rest spots with seating, greenery, or kiosks. They foster social interaction, improve aesthetics with plants or art, and, with smart design, add value to city life.
Existing above-ground car parks are multi-level structures that maximize vertical space in urban areas, reducing street parking demand. However, they face sustainability issues, contributing to heat islands and lacking eco-friendly features.

Park Facilities on the Disused Xiaohang Metro Line
Urban Fruit and Vegetable Warehouse Design
Based on Urban Agricultural Values
This project is based on the history of Xiaoxing underground station, planning and designing disused Xiaohang metro line with a total length of about 400 metres.
Continuing the concept that the original site of Xiaoxing Metro Station was a granary and farmland, the planned site is transformed into an urban fruit and vegetable warehouse
In urban development, land use is becoming increasingly scarce, and there is a lack of space for planting in cities. At the same time, there is a deficiency in agricultural education for people confined to the steel-and-concrete jungle of urban environments. Constructing urban fruit and vegetable warehouses can help preserve traditional agricultural culture, maintain a connection to nature and land, and promote citizens’ awareness of nature and healthy lifestyles amidst the fast-paced urban life.
