Parametric Urban Design Parametric urban development and design & Urban model simulation

Parametric design_is a supportive tool to create a sustainable urban form for the modern living environment. The possibility of creating design variants and equiping spatial analysis methods (density, visibiltiy, and accessibiltiy) will strehgthen a substantial and rational planning process.

Background_These projects are made on the course of Parametric Urban Design and Design Analysis(PUDA) and Urban Model Simulation(UMS) in first semester of my study in Bauhaus Universität Weimar. The focus of the fist sub-project is about using C# scripting tool to decide suitable landuse, population in the empty district; the second is about a practicing of C# programming for a idea cities form; and the third is setting experimental urban design elements and analizing it.

Approach_The three small projects make a basic test about utilizing the theoretical and technological parametric design method in urban scale.

C# scripting and grassshopper in Rhinocero are the main tools for these tests. I implemented it to create a ideal city form and analysis result based on a actual district in Weimar, Germany.

Population Distribution and Land-use Assigning _ UMS Assignment 2 Based on the network of Weimar Nord-West, the task aims to create the urban model building process regarding to various conditions, such as the attraction of centre working and population attraction, the repulsion of NIMBY facility.

The script of C# sets a rule to calculate the spatial relation of each parcels and made a population distribution distribution. Based on this result the land-use and building types will eventually be set up.

Weimar Nord-West (project of PUDA) The project aim to organize components in grasshopper in order to create completed urban elements. It starts with setting the inner-district network, block shape to the division of plots and the individual building.

During the whole process, the surrounding context and the practical size of building block, plot should also be considered.

After organizing of the components in grasshopper, The change of different variable may create different proposal. Figure 1 shows all the result of different varients. The proposal I did are down below, it repesent different priority of design principle. For example, the varient 2 enclured network design, varient 3 represent more inclusive open space. Beside the shift of the main-axis also effect their conncetivity to the surrounding area.

Urban Design in Hu-Wei Research of urban design regulation in Hu-Wei Sugar Industry Style Zone

Background_The Hu-Wei Sugar Refinery area was prosperous in the Japanese Colonial Period (1895-1945). However, most of them are currently unutilized. Therefore, its owner, Taiwan Sugar Company intends to demolish it and sale the land for real estate profit, but the local government expects to conserve the historical buildings and scenery.

Approach_The project aims to research the new urban design regulation for Hu-Wei Sugar Industry Zone to regulate its revitalization. Our team was commissioned by the county government to propose urban design regulations and masterplan for fitting both the Sugar Company’s and the government’s needs. We proposed a concept of “conservative development” to keep the scenery, conserve key factory buildings but allow new development in designated areas. We hope this area can be revived as tourist attraction or Sugar-theme outlet in the future.

Responsibility_I was mainly engaged in the process of site research, masterplan drawing and urban design rule adjusting. The following figures are my work.

Site Plan in Hu-Wei Suger Industry Style Zone Urban planning in Hu-Wei: The urban design regulation in zone of Suger industry style zone’ As a temporary assistance in Prof. Chi-Hung Chen’s office. I was in charge of the site plan, in the north part of the sugar factory. The plan is designed under the consideration of a new esthetic area and preserve the old industrial landscape at the same time.

The layout of the masterplan is inspired by the context of railroad.

Among the building, the conserved warehouse (colour white) will be revitalized as museums. And new building (colour pink) which pertains the warehouses scale and style will become retail or workshop or coworking space.

Parkway Plaza Commercial complex development plan

Background_The project’s site is 15,155 m2 and located 500 m north of the main train station, near the linear park. We participate as the private developer who lease the land for 50 years and aim to develop a commercial complex.

In our product portfolio, we will provide hotel for the business tourists, and department store for North district customers who want to enjoy food, recreation and reading.

Approach_This final studio project aim for understanding the perspective of the developer and familiarizing with the practical procedures of land and real estate development such as land acquisition, urban design guidelines, architecture plan and market segment analysis.

Our building design is affected by the urban design regulation. Therefore, the building volume is cut and produce an inter-block pathway for connecting the surrounding public space. This design also provide a strength to invite the pedestrian form the park. The name “Parkway Plaza� comes from this identity.

6_avoid conflicts between drive-in, walk in and hotel customers by allocating them independently

This diagram is not showing an innovative architecture design process but demonstrates the primary type of the commercial complex instead. It shows the architect can follow the considerable urban design rule and create a design with the consideration of its context..

The holistic urban design and development trainning in NCKU is an overview of the system of urban planning, design and development industry in Taiwan. During the process of desiging the Parkway plaza, I realized what different stakesholders needed, and as an urban planner, I should consider deeper about the multi-professional solutions.. This multidiciplinaty training maked me develop a strong interest to find more implemental urban planning strategies or plans with consideration of many practical detail. On the other side, I believe I aim to be a more sophisticated urban issue coordinater after finishing these projects.

Urban “Sewing” Masterplan review in North district

Background_This project aims to review the masterplan of the North District, Tainan, for adapting the change brought by the railway underground project. The project resolves problems such as the unregulated developments, lack of green space, and poor traffic circulation near the surface rails. Our proposal is titled, Urban Sewing, a concept of reconnecting the urban green spaces and road networks to transform the district into a mixed-use community Approach_In half years’ mapping and researching, our team set up a masterplan, land use plan and its supported financial and implemental strategies. About the implemental process, we first propose to transform the existing railroad into a linear park and then integrate the surrounding green space to form a green network. After that, we activate the land acquisition and redevelopment to improve the district’s traffic circulation and its living quality.

The district is composed of contrasting urban fabrics; Parts of its ill-utilized parcels of land and under-regulated built area limit the living quality.

By adjusting these places, including the existing railway infrastructure, decommissioned military base, and the under-regulated built area, we can improve North District’s living condition.

Existeing

According to the analysis, unregulated developments, lack of green space, and poor traffic circulation are the main problems. We proposed the following solutions with considerations of the finance and implementation condition.

Issue 2_low living quality in unregulated areas and low efficiency on land utilization

Issue 3_lack of green space, limiting living quality

Solution 1 road hierarchy_ by redeveloping according to the revised land use plan, a better road hierarchy is achieved.

Solution 2 mixed-use zone_by redevelopment, proper land use regulation and proposed road system, greater land utilization is created.

Solution 3 green network_ by changing ill-utilized parcels of land as local parks and by building the linear park, greater living environment will be provided

Nantou Regional Plan Urban spraw? Research the boundary of “suburban area” surrounding Caotun Urban Area Background_ The project aims to update the Nantou Regional Plan and 1 to define an applicable boundary of “suburban area ” in order to mitigate the land management difficulties from the developments under the previously non-enforced regulations to prevent urban sprawl. The boundary is hard to define since it should consider both theoretical and practical factors.

Purpose_Proposing the boundary of the “suburban area” surrounding Cautun Urban Area is one if my cases. I combined various spatial data such as cadastre, the current regional plan zoning, and environmentally sensitive areas via aggregate analysis by Geographic Information System (GIS) software. The combined result and the proposed boundary is subjected to discussion by the department’s managers in Nantou city hall.

The “suburban area” consists of buildings from varying degrees of legality.

The majority of residential areas is evolved from mainly former agricultural villages and their subsequent expansions, with under-regulated and illegal factories and warehouses scattered within them. While setting the boundary for the “suburban area”, it is also required to categorize the are1. Suburban area is an area which overlaps with the original regional zoning. It has the seperated land-use guildline and urban design regulation for fitting its unique spacial pattern.

31

The “suburban area” boundaries are mainly composed by two cat1 2 egories, “Agriculture Village Area ” and “Development Area ”.

1. The area with farm and agriculture feature and will be financed by Ministry of Agriculture.

2. The area contain a lot of factories, warehouse. It should be considered as semi-urban area
