4.3 Dream Valley - Sustainable Tunghai Campus Development

Climate change is now affecting every country on every continent. Needed actions to face the weather patterns are changing, sea levels are rising, weather events are becoming more extreme, and greenhouse gas emissions are now at their highest historical levels.

● Greenland work as a disaster manager ● Strengthen resilience and adaptive capacity to climate-related hazards and natural disasters in particular for bioswale and retarding basin.

Protecting forests, we will also be able to strengthen natural resource management and increase land productivity. We need to ensure the conservation of mountain ecosystems, including their biodiversity, to enhance their capacity to provide essential sustainable development benefits.

• Green land connects the nature with the pre-urban area for the ecology. • Extent the green land area • The green corridor can restore degraded land and soil.

Maintain peace and justice, especially against the threats of international homicide, violence against children, human trafficking and sexual violence. Another layer is to gather people together as a unit for cooperation instead of oppression.

• Multi-cultural space maintains the sacred spatial character and makes people from different cultures interact in some.

Sustainable Tunghai Campus Development

YEars: fEburarY 2020 location: taichung, taiwan

The project provided a vision with vigour, resilience, versatile for the Tunghai campus and the community to ensure sustainable integration of disruptive innovation into the biosphere and built environmental design. Base on the traditional style of the campus layout, the new development in Tunghai campus is required to face more challenges and follow the traditional rules.

The architectural design of Tunghai University campus is based on the early Cold War and post-colonial cultural imaginations. It also shows the struggle of Taiwanese culture and church identity after the Second World War. The concept and layout of Tunghai University were started from the interaction of the owner, designer, and local materials. The campus layout of Tunghai University has become a model in Taiwan; however, the same quality space has hardly appeared again in Taiwan. It is worth learning, and even must be preserved that the subjective and objective conditions in the planning process, including aesthetic, political, and ideological factors, and explore the unique status of Tunghai University in Taiwanese campus design.

The layout of Tunghai campus planning has evident modernism. Architect Chen Chi-Kwan takes the University of Virginia as the early blueprint of Tunghai University, which shows that it is a cultural phenomenon of hybridity. The layout shows the interaction between “modern” and “China culture,” and reflects the material culture of Japan and Taiwan. However, there is a significant gap between the original design drawings of Tunghai University in 1954 and the school buildings built afterwards. To integrate the original design concepts and the Anthropocene problems into the future campus design, it necessary to do more in-depth research to understand the conditions in the past and nowadays.
