ABOUT ME
EDUCATION
I am excited about the field, with particular interests in sustainable housing and urban landscape design. It is my hope to provide meaningful and functional outdoor spaces for many of the thousands of people living in urban centers. Landscape Architecture is a unique profession that requires years of practice and could take a lifetime to perfect. It is a profession where ideas can improve the lives of people. Although I am still at the graduate‘s degree, it is clear that: Landscape Architecture is my passion.

The biggest challenge is this space is at risk of being “swallowed” by the big city. Spitalfields is slowly being affected by the busy business life, and the huge skyscrapers have begun to be built in the east. The new constructions have caused a number of local peddlers to lose their jobs and lots of Bangladeshi immigrants want to move away. Therefore, the ultimate goal of the Street Life project is saving the place from being invaded by big cities and allowing it to retain its own culture and identity.
Nomadic Garden
a Vall
STRAND: PLANNING/DESIGN Spitalfields is a unique ward in London. Market life and food culture are the two major features, followed by public art. The Spitalfields market, Brick Lane are popular attractions. The nomadic garden is an impressive place which has lots of original artworks and self-planting planters, but few people came because of the lack of publicity and route guidance. This area is rich in ethnic groups, mainly Bengali immigrants, and with young population. These make this area more diverse and vibrant.
Rd
URBAN REGENERATION PROJECT SPITALFIELD’S STREET LIFE 2025
The study area (~110 hectares) is larger than the ward boundary, followed by the roads.
- SMALL SCALE
- SLOW
The vision is based on placemaking approach, use protection, restoration and reclamation strategies to enhance Spitalfields’ identity as one of the most attractive and livable neighborhoods in London. The aim is to emphasize the identity of this site. The first identity is small scaled. There is no large-scale space for renovation in the site, so the idea is using small-scale interventions to transform the larger urban context. The second identity is diversity. This space has the ability to own biodiversity, activity diversity, workplace diversity, etc. The last identity is slow. Unlike the busy pace of the city, Spitalfields is more need to maintain a slow life. Not only for sustainable development, but also to restore the relationship between the urban environment and the individual.

Lacking of close connection between attractions leads to few visitors going further. Parking lots almost occupy a third of neighborhood open space. Many streets and public open spaces are lacking of functionality and aesthetics. The project divided Spitalfields into 5 identity areas according to the land use and the future development.

The design stage focus on these four smallscaled open spaces. Meanwhile, the street is functioned as a link and extension. Although these four places have different functions and features, each place has at least one long table. Different from the small dining table in the restaurant, the designer of the project hoped that Spitalfields is a place where people can get together: eat, play...

Sorbus aucuparia

Because of the lack of green here, planting trees to divide the functional space is one of the most important design strategies. Sorbus and Betula are the main choice of tree selection, Sorbus are cute and the red fruits are lovely, Birch are bright and children like to peel off their white skin. The project hopes the whole community will be gradually improved with slow growth of these trees.

Now I live in the art corner, where the buildings used to be abandoned works. After a year of restoration and renovation, the dark pink one on the left has become a street art gallery for artists who have not yet become famous. The apricot building I live in is now a very nice apartment building and I rented a private planter in the back yard. When I get home after work, I always see this group of teenagers playing skateboarding and rock climbing here, they seem to be children who live nearby. Although I dare not play these extreme sports, I will often participate in the exhibition next door. Sometimes the gallery co-hosts fashion exhibitions with students from the surrounding costume colleges, and sometimes it brings in works by famous street artists. I often think, living here is awesome!

Truman Brewery Ely’s Yard was a parking space mainly for the officers, but after the project intervention, this space became a nice eating and relaxing yard. Every time I walk by here, I usually go to the TB’s Yard to check if there are any good movies on that night. My friends like coming here to watch outdoor movies very much. Oh, I almost forgot to mention that there will be a very famous French jazz band playing at the music bar here in July, but the tickets have already been sold out. But this year’s music festival will be held in the yard for three days. Don’t miss it!

Next to TB’s Yard the Brick Lane square, which was an abandoned parking lot. Now it is being reused to an outdoor market space.
If I want to eat brunch after my morning exercise in Allen Farmland, I will go to the nearest Brick Lane square to buy some fresh hot food. I heard that this year there will be a Spitalfields’ Christmas market, held in here, which makes me really excited.

The furthest is Allen Farmland, it was a derelict lawn with several children’s play facilities. But now, as you can see, a large area has been converted into farmland for residents to grow food. And a new Betula forest was planted, adding a secret, enclosed space. Except on weekdays, I would run to Allen’s farmland in the morning and do yoga on the lawn. Every time I saw many neighbors working on their fields, helping each other and exchanging food, their children playing in the children’s area nearby. Before noon, many families would come for a picnic.

02 POSTGRADUATE WORK RURAL PLANNING PROJECT - GROUP WORK STOCKSBRIDGE'S WIND ENERGY “This project is designed to provide practical experience of a near real, client-focused landscape planning project, very similar to what you would come across in practice. It aims to give you hands on experience of using practical tools for landscape planning that are widely used in the profession and of applying them to a very topical current issue relating to renewable energy. It also aims to reinforce what you will learn from an introductory session on working in

groups, to demonstrate the importance of this in working in practice.”

03 POSTGRADUATE WORK EXPERIMENTAL LANDSCAPE MELANCHOLY APARTMENT “ The aim of the project is to investigate and to develop experimental ways of approaching landscape architecture as an art form: one closely related to other art forms yet also uniquely concerning public(s) space and nature.” —— Design and Art Practice Project Aim This is not a “classic” landscape design project, but an experimental Landscape practice in collaboration with the Sheffield Site Gallery. My design philosophy is to evoke memories of buildings that have been demolished in recent years due to rapid commercial development. Material Selection: I restored the furniture inside the building with marble, a cold and tactile material. The “walls” of all the “rooms” were made of birches with white trunks. The collision of these 2 materials allows people to get more tactile experience. The design that these furniture do not humanize can let a person feel unhappy, even let a person’s sense of well-being reduce. I hope people do not just indulge in advanced technology, but often look back on the past memories, learn to cherish.

It was once the most famous steel industry area in UK. The main aim of the design is to create a new space that could provide people more experiences to explore and reveal the potential historical value of the CIQ place. As the plan shows, the orange part will be a comprehensive area with social activities happened and the green represents the planting area. The 410m2 area is the “mixed junction” of the two parts.
