How to get acupuncture for city

Urban acupuncture is a socio-environmental theory that combines contemporary urban design with traditional Chinese acupuncture, using small-scale interventions to transform the larger urban context.As an urban acupuncturist, I believe that people are the basic units that make up urban space, and that their activities shape the different spaces of the city, just like cells in human body.

As a result of the increasing urbanisation process, which has been accompanied by a proliferation of conflicts between different parties.During my practice in Nanjing and Shanghai, I have experienced problems such as ambiguous spatial ownership, cultural indifference, the lack of outdoor recreation areas for pets and the inevitable urban heat island.I try to address these issues with small-scale interventions to reconcile biological activity, land and culture.

I believe that a good urban design is one that regulates human activity, even in the long run, and is as continuous growth as a large tree. I do not believe that people should focus on the adequacy of the design approach; urban designers should be more like acupuncturists who tap into the intrinsic and essential values of the city, find the core problems and prescribe the right remedy.

Project brief:

Since 2016, the popular Queen Victoria Market has been undergoing a ten-year refurbishment in response to the Zero Carbon Emissions Initiative. The street design is for the main two streets of the market, making the best use of the market's waste resources and adhering to the tenets of the LID technology, aiming to create a vibrant and carbon neutral market community in 8-year time.

Australia's Energy Structure

Number OfMarketVisitors TrafcFlow

The Australian economy is highly dependent on the fossil fuel industry,but in recent years, Australia is actively looking for carbonzero measures after experiencing the impact of climate change.

Australia's International Status

The government's inaction in the face of climate issues has been challenged by domestic and international environmentalists.

After Australia was involved in World War I, Australia was rapidly industrialized.

Carbon emissions increased these years, but the vegetation coverage in the city center has been decreasing quickly.

During this year, Australians started to witness several instances of extreme shifts from drought to above-average precipitation.

The government's disregard for carbon-zero regulations has led to collective protests and even clashes.

How Life Will Be Like In The Future

I find lots of new furniture made of coffee products in this market. I am so curious about that.

The First "happy winter" festival begins,I've heard that the ice is made with CO2 temperature control system.

The new tablewares are also made of recycled materials which attract lots of Environmentalists come here to have a meal.

It is my favorite plaza because I can enjoy skating on the ice in the winter, in this large car park !

Project brief:

As Indonesia’s capital city, Jakarta, is plagued by big city problems, the government is proposing to build a new capital in the rainforest-rich Kalimantan province.

Path Modelling Experiment

Fixed departure point to simulate future road directions by switching food locations of slime mold and altering light.

I recorded the final results of each slime experiment, taking the most obvious paths taken by the slime and tracing them into a network.

In order to find the shortest path of development with the least impact , I found slime molds as the experimental material and created a model that matched the local topography through 3d printing, using partial light to simulate the city boundaries and rivers according to the light avoidance properties of slime molds.

Avoiding the centralisation of urban construction, urban expansion is first carried out in sub-regions, and carrying out plant restoration schemes in batches in established urban areas. The construction of reservoirs and a robust urban pipeline system avoids the direct exploitation of groundwater.

small peasant economy

The planting mode in the site is mainly in small peasant. Private occupation are harmful to the environment, and low-tech cultivation often generates little income.

PLAN B: Oil Palm Restoration

NOW NOW

Oil palm plantations destroy rainforest ecosystems and are prone to fires and secondary disasters in hot weather.

intercropping model

The land will be contracted for agriculture on a community basis and a community-enterprise system will be introduced, with a choice of cash crops such as rice, coffee plants, oranges and bananas.

AFTER 4 YEARS

AFTER 6 YEARS

wild bee bee farming area

Bees are an integral part of the rainforest ecosystem and can be used to increase income through ferine honey.

AFTER 8 YEARS

In other words, I think the government should improve the legislative system, strictly control the development of the rainforest, and raise the awareness of citizens to protect the environment.

Eliminate oil palm plantations in phases and based on natural regeneration , the secondary rainforests would grow gradually.

As the land on which the oil palm is planted is rich in minerals and fungus, it is possible to develop an undergrowth fungus economy here.

Develop parts of the rainforest for tourism and low-carbon,locally styled buildings for recreation, residential and other activities.

The site is located in Zhonghua Gate section of the Ming city walls.Through the discovery of the history of the Ming City Wall and the use of a web-based questionnaire to gauge the public’s knowledge and opinions on the culture of the wall in Nanjing. 7 different types of activities have been designed to give each green space a specific activity space through the internet, so that each visitor can fully engaged in a journey of cultural discovery of the city walls.

Site Background

I live far away from the City Walls. It is quite famous in the city but not all over the country.

The State Of The City Walls In 2022

There are many cultural buildings in this places.

The City Walls are beautiful.I think obtaining some parks and gardens would be better.

The fresh air makes me relaxed.I think the City Walls are well protected by the government.

Culture Facilities are lack.We should consider more about the site's landscape.

This is a great spot to take photos, with the city walls and the Great Sealion Temple in the frame. The route to find the scars of the city walls allows people to get up close and personal with the history of the city.

Many pet dogs face mental stress and excessive energy due to the mismatch between urban parkland and the number of pet dogs in the city. This design site is located at the edge of Xuanwu Lake, a city park with a very high number of pet owners in the surrounding area, and aims to build pet-friendly facilities and improve water quality to provide an amusement park for dogs to release their stress.

"The Way Of Friendship"

In the past, the garden paths resulted in dogs bursting at people, posing a safety hazard. Now, planting some plants in the middle of the pet-friendly paths to shield them from the view of dogs can effectively segregate people who are afraid of dogs.

"Dogs Playground" "Outdoor Swimming Pool"

Previously the site was just dead leaves and fallen grass and was filled with plastic waste. Now the site has been transformed into a dog park, giving dogs the opportunity to run and socialise freely.

Previously the road was so far from the water body that people had no access to the water and it was overgrown with green algae. Now, after being purified by plants, water-friendly stacks have been added and clean water is available for dogs to swim in.
