CONCEPT
ENVIRONMENTAL MODULATIONS BEE NEST ANALOG DESIGN
Unity, clarity, contrast Unmistakable, pronounced, distinctive Jarring, surprising contextual effects Planting design can be the result of existing spatial conditions in the context, such as buildings, paths, or plazas, but planting design can also be the generator of spatial conditions for the context. Rather than being designed afterwards or as an afterthought, planting design becomes the dominant force that actually drives the character, form, and spirit of a space.
URBAN NEST
With respect to this concept, the design of the garden uses the planting design as the space generator for creating the functional requirements of the garden. Planting is made on a regular diagonal stepped grid pattern. Open spaces for activities and gatherings, as well as spaces for circulation paths, are derived from this generator grid by “magnifying” the stepped pattern’s geometry at certain points to form the different sizes and types of spaces needed. This way, the paths and open spaces comprising the hardscape will become derivative of the planting design’s logic rather than the other way around.
SUMMER
clear, and have stronger contrasts between plants and hardscapes than if many more plant varieties are used. All selected plants are native to North America. Two of the selected plants are evergreen in order to provide a reference point throughout the seasons, and the other two plants are selected for their high color and character variation over the seasons in order to create distinctive combinations of the four plants over the seasons. This way, variety is created without the need for a large variety of plants. Furthermore, the additional consideration of plant height, and plant placement based on height, creates various levels of openness appropriate to the three different open spaces: large group gathering, small group gathering, and individual space.
4 10 18 30 36 46 48 For the purposes of this project, we have assumed the site’s location to be in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. We have assumed that the site is enclosed by a sidewalk around its perimeter and is bordered by small streets on all sides except to the north, where a low-rise community center building is located. All other buildings in the area are also assumed to be low-rise.

RESIDENCE The general residential housing have low qualities and high density. Community green space are disordered and scarce. Environment of Infrastructures like metro stations and parking lots are poor without good facilities and green plantings.

Those transformed rain gardens take less urban space and bring more ecological efficiency and are also multifunctional. They collected approximately 1.5 times rainwater and provid urban street with more greening and recreation space. It also gives the community public gardens for residents to grow plants while communicate with each others.

With respect to this concept, the design of the garden uses the planting design as the space generator for creating the functional requirements of the garden. Planting is made on a regular diagonal stepped grid pattern. Open spaces for activities and gatherings, as well as spaces for circulation paths, are derived from this generator grid by “magnifying” the stepped pattern’s geometry at certain points to form the different sizes and types of spaces needed. This way, the paths and open spaces comprising the hardscape will become derivative of the planting design’s logic rather than the other way around.

clear, and have stronger contrasts between plants and hardscapes than if many more plant varieties are used. All selected plants are native to North America. Two of the selected plants are evergreen in order to provide a reference point throughout the seasons, and theArrow other two plants are selected Blue Juniper for their high color and character variation over the seasons in order to create distinctive combinations of the four plants over the seasons. This way, scopulorum variety is created without the need for a large variety of plants. Furthermore, the additional consideration of plantJuniperus height, and plant placement“Blue basedArrow” on height, creates various levels of openness appropriate to the three different open spaces: large group gathering, small group gathering, and Holmstrup White Cedar individual space.

For the purposes of this project, we have assumed the site’s location to be in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. We have assumed that the site is enclosed by a sidewalk around its perimeter and is bordered by small streets on all sides except to the north, where a low-rise community center building is Fragrant Sumac located. All other buildings in the area are also assumed to be low-rise.
