PERSONAL STATEMENT Having a father in the field of visual design, I started my exploration into art and design at a very early age, filling up my childhood memory by painting landscapes, objects, and people. It is my great passion for drawing that developed my habit of observing the things around me with sharp eyes. I traveled a lot with my parents who are travel enthusiasts and visited a lot of scenic and historical places of interest in China. In the process, I noticed the hidden ways that the environment affects people’s feelings. However, in modern society, little attention was paid to environmental sustainability in the course of urban development. My specialist field of interest is to integrate my ecological ideas into landscape architecture in creative ways by further studying at your university. As an old Chinese saying goes, traveling is better than reading. I believe studying at your university is a precious platform for me to enrich my life experience and learn from the advantages of other cultures and thoughts. During my undergraduate years, I have learned the core courses like Landscape Design Basis, Plant Landscaping, Architectural Design Foundation, Building Environment Surveying and Mapping, Display Space Design, Drawing and Perspective, ThreeDimensional Form, Sketch, Line Drawing, which placed a solid theoretical foundation for my further landscape architecture study. I, therefore, was especially fascinated by your researchled and studio-based teaching models, which I hope will be helpful for hone my professional skills and enhance my knowledge and understanding of landscape architecture by practicing in realistic contexts. This program is a practice that draws on a deep understanding of material and cultural history, ecology, geography, climate, and the past and present uses of landscapes in order to speculate on the future. It will be a cherished opportunity for me to discover my potentials in the round.

CONTENTS

01 02 03

After graduation, I will strive for engaging in landscape architecture on Sasaki, a leading design firm practicing Architecture, Planning and Urban Design, Landscape Architecture, and so on. I studied many works of this company and was significantly attracted by the design idea of the company’s designers.

01 LIMA Park Design Project description: Lima migrated from rural areas after violence broke out between the government and Maoist guerrillas in the 1980s. Immigrants settled on abandoned hillsides on the edge of the city, where have many informal settlements. With the development of the city, many elites have moved to the suburbs of the city. This means that two classes live in the same area. A wall built by the Neighbors Association of Las Casuarinas separates the residents of the two places. At the same time, the differences between the two places are getting worse. On one side, Las Casuarinao has many mansions and gardens; on the other side, people live in houses made of waste materials and surrounded by much desert. The project is located between the two places where a public platform is designed for people in the two places to communicate and relax. At a specific time, it can be sold and hold other activities. This project is designed to bridge the gap between the two communities and be an inclusive space for coexistence.

02 KIMBERLEY BIG HOLE Project description: In 1871, the "Red Hat Party" from Korsberg discovered the first diamond in Kimberley. Since then, more than 50,000 miners from different companies have used pickaxes and shovels to dig out this 240-meter depth Of the mine. However, the environmental problems and human settlements caused by mining began to become prominent, and the mine was finally closed permanently in 1914. Nowadays, the city's renewal and the reuse of brownfields have brought new opportunities to this mine.The project aims to solve the mine's ecological problems and provide public leisure places for residents in the vicinity. The implementation of the master plan aims to restore the local ecology of the mine garden by connecting economic and environmental sustainability Project type: brownfield renovation design Project area: 148 square miles Completion time: 2019.06

In 1888, miners flocked to the area, and De Beers Consolidated Mines Limited was born.

Because of the severe collapse. The mine was closed in 1914, covering an area of 170,000 square meters, a depth of 240 meters, and producing 3 tons of diamonds

03 LEI YUE RIVER PARK Project description: The site is located in Zixing City, Chenzhou C i t y, H u n a n P r o v i n c e . T h e economic structure of this area is mainly based on industry and agriculture. The design originated from the rapid development of Zixing City; many residential lands replaced the original forest land and agricultural land, resulting in insufficient space for residents. S e c o n d l y, d u e t o t h e m a n y chemical plants near the site, the local air pollution was severe, and industrial waste can be seen everywhere. The purpose of the design guidelines is to integrate the environment with residents' activities in the new urban park and increase public activity space for urban residents by transforming farmland and plains. Enhance local vitality and create beautiful urban parks for residents.

There are many chemical plants and power plants around the site, and the factories emit a large amount of industrial waste gas, which spreads to the surrounding areas.

During the rainy season, improper management of the lakeshore in the surrounding area caused the lake's water level to rise and flood the shore area.

The improper discharge of sewage from surrounding factories and improper discharge of civil water, as well as a large amount of domestic garbage in the middle of the lake, have caused the lake's pollution to deteriorate.

DESIGN AND ANALYSIS Garbage disposal

Design method: To improve the city's diversity, the design has created three functional blocks: ecological leisure space, children's activity space, and leisure activity space. The ecological leisure space provides people with a convenient landscape waterfront trail, and the flexible open space increases the interaction between people and water. An ecological parking lot and a wetland landscape area have also been set up in this area to prepare for future flood disasters. The children's activity space is equipped with different entertainment facilities through children's behavior patterns to increase their interest. The leisure activity space is equipped with pavilions, stools, squares, etc., bringing diversified activity spaces for residents.

Project description: The project is located in Reykjavik, the capital city of Iceland. Reykjavik has abundant geothermal resources and extensive hot springs, rich in fishery, hydropower, and geothermal resources, but other natural resources are scarce. Due to the unique geographical location, the food types in this area are single. Vegetables are mainly imported, and the prices are very high. To meet the food demand, this project aims to design a self-sufficient urban food system that uses the city's free space to arrange a food chain of different scales and types to make it a space for planting, production, and sales to supply the entire city.
