2017-2018 Gap Year

56 Lady Lawson Street, Edinburgh,

Before I started my master’s degree, I took a gap year working as a part time in several industries. I spent this period to explore and develop my interest in other fields. I have worked in a hotel’s bakery, a wedding planning firm and a production house. These working experiences are precious, they offered me the opportunity to gain new insight about landscape design from another perspective.

Visual Art Intern 2019 - Saatchi & Saatchi Great Wall Advertising Co., Ltd(盛世長城國際廣告有限公司), Guangzhou China 粵港澳大灣區青年總會: 名城廣州青年機遇實習計劃 This is a new attempt to work in the advertising industry, it brought a wider perspective to my further career. Saatchi & Saatchi is one of the biggest global communications and advertising agency in China, therefore, it’s my honour to work on advertising graphic design for several famous brands, including Dove, Pampers, Doublemint and Skittles.

PERSONAL STATEMENT

I am studying the Master Degree in Landscape Architecture in the University of Edinburgh stems from my deep passion for Landscape Architecture, Urban Planning, Arts and the Built Environment. In the past five years, I have acquired basic knowledge from the courses in Landscape Architecture, in which City and ¬Town Planning, Sustainable Development as well as Policy of Local Planning were some of the subjects that inspired me the most. Urban Design and Planning is always my favorite part of the courses as I like studying the complex interplay of different factors in urban development and space, and how we can improve the city environment. After completing my Higher Diploma course at Hong Kong Design Institute, I continued to study Landscape Architecture at the University of Gloucestershire for the Bachelor Degree from 2015 to 2017. Meanwhile, it was my honour to receive The Bodfan Gruffydd Award: The Best Level Two Design Portfolio of 2016 which was presented to the most outstanding student of the year. The award was a big encouragement to me as it was a recognition of my academic results, performance of projects as well as my positive learning attitude. It was an amazing experience for me to study overseas in terms of both academic and cultural exchange, and it helped me to develop a more open-minded approach to my studies. I believe that the skills and knowledge I have acquired so far are very helpful for me to further my study and work in Landscape Architecture such as skills of communication, researching, design and planning, time management as well as technical use of software. Apart from this, having years of drawing trainings since I was young made me confident in presenting my design work through hand-drawings which can show my concepts and ideas precisely and in a more personal way. It was also a way to show my enthusiasm to the projects.

In 2014, I joined an internship in a farming company in Hong Kong that aims to encourage people to farm at home with different farming methods. My duties included planting, promoting farming products and redesigning the rooftop farm in an industrial building. Since then I love planting as I can learn more about the real situation of planting and gardening, and understand more about vegetable growing, organic farming and the value of encouraging people living in the city to farm. Before I started my master’s degree, I took a gap year working as a part time in several industries. I spent this period to explore and develop my interest in other fields. I have worked in a hotel’s bakery, a wedding planning firm and a production house. In 2019 summer, I worked as a Visual Art Intern in Saatchi & Saatchi in Guangzhou China which is one of the biggest global communications and advertising agency in China. Therefore, it’s my honour to work on advertising graphic design for several famous brands, including Dove, Pampers, Doublemint and Skittles. These working experiences are precious, they offered me the opportunity to gain new insight about landscape design from another perspective. In five years time, I would like to have some real practice in the industry. I also wish to work in different countries to broaden my horizons. In the future, I will keep learning and try to use my knowledge to help improve the urban environment and strike a balance between urban development and natural ecology.

Site Context: Sutherland Location

Background Sutherland as a biggest county in Scotland and the United Kingdom with around 6000 km2 territory, the population is equally separate around the coastal with approximately 14000 people. Sutherland is a gigantic land combines with river, loch, peatland and wild open area. The unique coastline on the west coast and north coast attracts lots of visitors and based on the combination with islands, loch and sea bays; fishing industry is very popular in these areas.

Kinlochbervie Sutherland

Kinlochbervie

The MonieThrust running from north to south has separated the eastern Sutherland and western Sutherland. One of the oldest rock type can be found on the western Sutherland is the Lewisian gneiss, which has weathered to become some features such as small loch, low hills and some peaty area which known as ‘knock-and-lochan’. Some caves, underground water systems and limestone pavement can be easily found at Inchnadamph due to the Durness limestone running from the north to south. On the other side, the Helmsdale fault has separated more metamorphic rocks and igneous rocks from highland and fertile coastal plain. Jurassic rocks can be found near the Brora area including coal seam which benefited for Brora’s industrial growth.

Kinlochbervie

Climate Due to the moderating effect of the North Atlantic Drift starting from the Gulf of Mexico, the temperatures of west Sutherland are higher in general, but it suffers a wetter climate. Central and East Sutherland is generally drier than other places in Sutherland because of the rain shadow from the hills on the Westside. Moreover, Mid Sutherland suffers more snow and frost because of the distance to the coastal.

Arable Beaches, dunes, machair and saltmarsh Blanket bog

Oceanic Climate is the major factor of the soil development on the Westside; it brings a heavy rainfall, cooler summer and mild winter. The current varieties of vegetations are determined by the climates and underlying rocks and glacial debris.

Broad leaved/ mixed woodland Coniferous woodland

Altitude has a profound effect on it as well; higher altitude discourages development of vegetations by providing lower temperatures and stronger wind speed, slower nutrients cycling and disturbing root system. In Sutherland, the result of altitude is flattening because of the cool summer weather and the appearance of high-landed species or communities at or near the sea level.

Traffic Circulation

Food & Drink Tourist Attraction

To travel to Sutherland, the primary road are not enough for it since it stops at Ullapool or goes all the way up to the North-east, A road as known as North Coast 500, is the major route for travelling to different cities in Sutherland. It covers most of the coastal towns and attractions where near the coastal, it also has three routes that are crossing the midland to increase the level of conveniences for both business or leisure drivers.

The Scottish food and drink industry is qualitative and well-known all over the world, which are produced from captured fishery, aquaculture, agriculture and alcohol industries. After researching the distribution of food and drink tourist attractions, those spots are mainly distributed around the coastal of Sutherland. Unfortunately, it is better developed on the east coast in terms of number of restaurants, level of conveniences and reputation of cities. By creating food tourism on the west coast, visitors will be able to experience the history and culture of the landscape through the sense of taste.

On the other hand, the railways only reach out to the south and east parts of Sutherland, where is the earliest developed areas in place. To be able to travel to Kinlochbervie, driving is necessary and this is the reason why Kinlochbervie should become more driver-friendly for example, creating more car park and camper van site spaces.

Site Context: Kinlochbervie

Background Kinlochbervie is a fishing and crofting village in North West Coast in the Highlands, where is a key centre for services for northwest Sutherland, including schools, fire station and fishing port. Fishing, public sector and tourism provide the main employment in Sutherland. Complex topography and the road pattern around the lochs have contributed to a fragmented development pattern. Due to the strategic location to the North Atlantic fishing grounds, Kinlochbervie continued to be an important fishing port in the UK, which support the role of marine industries in the local economy.

Scotland is well known as the land of good food especially seafood, by offering over 60 species of high quality seafood to the world. At Kinlochberive, fresh caught quality fish and different types of seafood from North Atlantic Ocean and North Sea will easily be found and will be exported all over the world. Instead of being a major seafood outport, a local food tourism center will change the whole concept of Kinlochberive or even Scotland.

Tourist Activities In the design proposal, there is a range of tourist activity and events for all ages visitors and most of them operate at the food tourist centre and on the terraced gardens. The facilities do not only contain onshore agritourism but also includes boat rental service for fishing.

Caravan and Camping Site

Loch Clash

Since the proposed farms are eco-friendly and would not operate with chemicals therefore it would attract the farmland birds to stay and raise up the biodiversity. The woodland provides shelter and habitats for the birds and for the other wildlife, plus there is a bird-watching trail for visitors to climb and get to the peak of the hill.

Boat Rental Service

Bird Watching Trail

Loch Clash Promenade

Kinlochbervie Loch Clash Campervan Stopover

The ecology walk covers coastal, brackish, and freshwater environment and it aims to encourage the public to visit the habitats of the wildlife in order to enhance the public awareness of wildlife conservation.

Education Centre

Sutherland already offers different types of accommodation such as hotel, caravan and camping site, campervan stopover, hostel and Bed and Breakfast. However, to make this greater and to allow visitors taste the landscape and culture, this project will offer greater living experience and options to visitors from North Coast 500 route by providing 13 farms stay houses and hostel. Visitors will be able to enjoy the silence and comfort environment since the campuses are away from the noise They will be also able to taste the first-hand experience by cooking the fish that they catch and the fresh ingredient from the farmer’s market.

Subsoil drainage system is adopted to install underground planter to avoid flooding by high water-table and maintain the ecological system with sufficient moisture content of soil. Precipitation will fall down to soil, pass through the Geotextile filter into drainage layer and drain out through the pipe. Permeable granolithic paving and surface channel are aimed to deal with surface water runoff. In particular, permeable granolithic paving provides temporary storage of part of the precipitation. It can establish a small moisture environment for the surrounding vegetation as the stored water will evaporate when the sunlight heats the paving.

Benefits of the Proposals

Biodiversity

The Downy birch woodland provides a range of habitats for flora and fauna, such as bees, beetles, birds, butterfly, flies, mosses and fungi.

The freshwater lochs provide important nesting habitats for red and black throated divers and common scoters, the water quality is also good for some vascular plants such as Pillwort and Shetland pondweed.

Sublittoral sands and gravels provides good spawning and nursery areas for several species of fish such as sandeels, herring and plaice

A mosaic of crops and mixture of sheep and cattle grazing are aimed to benefit the local biodiversity by providing a variety of habitats especially for farmland birds. Purple moor grass and rush pasture can be species rich, supporting a range of invertebrate life including marsh fritillary butterflies, narrowbordered bee hawk moths and several species of snails and flies. It is also important for a range of wading birds such as snipe and curlew.

Deep water mud habitats support a range of crab and starfish as well as burrowing shrimp, nephrops, burrowing urchins waters

greater cohesiveness of local communities. In order to achieve this, we propse four new footbridges, new paving of the towpath, lighting to make the canal safer at night, a water bus service connecting the existing services on the Regents Canal and the River Lea and new green spaces and a swimming pool alongside new housing along the canal. Street trees and swales will be implemented along streets that connect the canal to nearby schools, nuseries, green spaces and DlR and tube station, improving wayfinding to the canal.

The first footbridge is an important infrastructure to connect the water bus stations on both sides and the new residential houses, and it is a perfect viewpoint to appreciate the canal.

Cherry trees (Prunus avium) planted along the footbridge provide colour interest during the spring. Terrance gardens and seabins can help to improve the water quality of the canal.

The Arched pedestrian bridge takes less space at the canal. The screening bushes replaced previous fence or wall to improve the walking experience along the towpath.

One of the paths leading pedestrians to the Limehouse Cut through rows of street trees and paving patterns. Street trees (Tilia cordata) improve the quality of street space. The leading signs and paving also increase the identity of the streets.

Detail Plan

Limehouse Cut At Night The lighting design along the canal and tributary roads aims to guide people towards the canal. The canal is reimagined as a space that is pleasant and safe to enjoy at night, with a number of events taking place along the canal at night time. Lighting along the walls and paths as well as a nighttime water bus service help to ensure that the canal retains natural surveillance even at night.

Chosen Study area - Existing Conditions Old Town is the heart of Edinburgh in Scotland. The city has long been a centre of education, particularly in the fields of medicine, Scots law, literature, the sciences and engineering at the University of Edinburgh. Therefore, there is a certain proportion of land use for the university and student accommodation. It is also the second largest financial centre in the United Kingdom (after London) and the city's historical and cultural attractions have made it the United Kingdom's second most popular tourist destination, attracting over one million overseas visitors each year. Therefore, there are a large proportion of land use taking by the tourism which included tourist attractions, hotels, shops and restaurants. The land uses of the surroundings are mainly retails and restaurants, there are also use of hotels, churches as well as two tourist attraction, Scottish Storytelling Centre and Museum of Childhood. The surroundings have two Churches, which are Old St Paul’s Scottish Episcopal Church (constructed 19th century) and Trinity Apse (reconstructed in the 1872).

There are several reasons that the existing site has high potential to redevelop as an open space. P.1. Location is easy to access, which has the closes connecting to the Royal Mile and not far from the tourist attractions. P.2. Calton Hill provides a good view from the site, it would attract people to come and enjoy the view P.3. The site is closed to the North Bridge and Waverley Station, it could be a first impression of the Old Town. P.4 There is an underused greenspace in the site, it provides trees, vegetations as well as ecology for the following design.

Constraints of the Chosen Study area After the site analysis and concerns, there are several constraints of designing the chosen site. C.1. Level changing, the land of the site is a slop, not a flat surface, Therefore, during the following design process, it needs to manage the level difference and improve the disable access. C.2. The site is surrounding by buildings so a half of the site is shaded so the choice of the vegetation should be careful.

History – Fresh Food Market

Market in Edinburgh

Before the railway came into the drained valley of the Nor’ Loch part of the ground below the North Bridge was used for the city’s markets. The market was on the market street, which was closed to the chosen study area.

There are several markets in Edinburgh, which are opening in the weekend. The design of The Food & Flea Market inspired me to have hardwood to be my market store material, which looks good and the color can fit in the old town.

Providing residential housing for people living in Edinburgh

Jury’s Inn The proposed plan is to demolish the Jury’s Inn building to have a bigger land to design an open space with the closes linking to the Royal Mile. Refer to our group strategy work, the topic is Rebalance, which aims to have more uses for residents of Edinburgh and reduce the use for tourists. Therefore, after demolished the hotel building, the design aims to provide several residential houses for people living in Edinburgh and solving the housing issue in Edinburgh. One more reason is that the Jury’s Inn is quite tall and wide, seven stories, which blocks the view to Arthur’s Seat from the North Bridge. The proposed design aims to provide a better view from the North Bridge to the proposed design and Arthur’s Seat, as a reception and giving a good first impression of the Old Town. It would also focus on the level changing and improving the access specially the disable access connecting the Jeffery Street, Royal Mile and the proposed open space.

Context – Identity (The Arches)

The Arches,E Market Street There are exciting things going on in Edinburgh, such as the newly renovated Waverley Arches below Jeffrey Street that are a part of the huge £150 million New Waverley development that aims to create a bustling new quarter in Edinburgh’s Old Town.

Rotterdam Market Hall, Netherlands Rotterdam Market Hall is a sustainable combination of food, leisure, living and parking, fully integrated to celebrate and enhance the synergetic possibilities of the different functions. This is a good example to combine the market and residential apartments.

Baltic Station Market, Estonia Baltic Station Market is a unique market in Estonia, which includes nearly 300 traders on three floors. On the underground floor, there is a supermarket, a sports club, and various services. On the ground floor, there is a large hall for fish and meat, a street for vegetables, and a versatile street food area with nearly 20 dining options.

Garden Design:

The Butterfly and Dragonfly’s Garden 2015 Chaumont-sur-Loire International Garden Festival Spanning a wide array of fields and central to the major challenges we face for our future, the garden today is an extraordinary place of deliberation, innovation and experimentation.Ecological research, scientific and technical investigations of all types observe, fertilise and reinvent this ever changing world. Permaculture, transgenesis, biocontrol, aquaponics, hydroponics, green chemistry, phytoremediation, vertical farms, synergistic vegetable plots … this is just some of the action packing this amazing adventure of the living world, where experimentation, prospecting and discovery combine tradition, ecology and technological progress – without losing sight of the humanistic dimension or of poetic imagination for all that. Whether they go hand in hand with the adventure of “incredible edibles”, “intelligent seeds”, spectacular multi-grafted fruit trees, or with the chlorophyllous fluorescence of plants, modern-day gardens have a thousand-and-one reasons to enchant and astonish us. The gardens of this 25th edition of the Festival should therefore surprise us as they set out to tell this extraordinary plant odyssey of the 21st century with all the creative imagination and fantasy that have always reigned at Chaumont-sur-Loire. The 25th International Garden Festival will thus be showcasing gardens that address the great questions of our time, such as climate change, rising sea levels, “floating gardens” and the link between habitat and gardens. Once again the gardens at Chaumont-sur-Loire will captivate you with the inventions and proposals of a new generation of landscapers.

Insect Sculpture These are large sculptures to take the form of insects, which allow visitors to view and admire the structure of insects. Meanwhile, they are seating area for the visitor to relax.

Seating area

Dragonfly Footbridge This is a footbridge formed as a dragonfly, which mixed the ideas of insects viewing and the large insect sculptures. The whole image would be like a huge dragonfly landing on the garden.

Main Elements -Pond for Dragonflies to Live and Rest -Dragonfly-shaped Footbridge

Slope

-Food-plants for Butterflies Pattern The pattern of butterfly’s wing forms the pond, footpaths and planting areas.

1st Draft Plan

Footbridge The footbridge is connecting the entrance and the centre of the garden. Before the visitors arrive the central area, the atmosphere would be mysterious and giving a room for visitor to imagine that what is going to happen.

2nd Draft Plan

-Educational Information of the Insects

3nd Draft Plan Concept Insects make up the majority population of the animal kingdom. These incredible creatures provide food for the ecosystem as they are the bottom of the food chain. However, people seldom appreciate their beauty. If people take time to learn more about insects, they would find them incredibly intriguing. Therefore, my design is a contemporary garden for butterflies and dragonflies, and visitors can relax and have fun with these insects. While they visit the garden, they can learn a lot more about butterflies and dragonflies through an interesting way. Moreover, it provides a nice platform for insect watching, especially dragonflies. On top of that, this garden keeps an ecosystem between the insects and plants, which could maintain a balance in ecology.

Butterfly &

Dragonfly Garden The Dragonfly-shaped Footbridge This footbridge is the main character in the garden, it is created a shape of five different species of dragonfly. Then, the visitor can know them through an interesting channel, it could attract people to find out more detail about dragonfly. On the footbridge, there are pattern of Small Pincertail, Ruddy Darter and Large Red Damselfly’s wing as paving; it is pattern of Banded Agrion’s wing as a glass sculpture; and the structure of Common Blue Damselfly’s antenna, head, compound eyes, thorax and legs as the central part of this bridge, also its abdomen was developed with a slide at the end of the footbridge.

The Details of Butterflies In the butterfly food-plant area, there are 42 species of butterfly model near the food-plants, which had written their name on their wings. Then, when the visitor see the real butterflies, they could know their name through those models.

Providing Detail through An Interesting Channel Many people do not want to read the information boards during visiting a garden. It is very boring way to give information to the visitor, so The Butterfly and Dragonflyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Garden provided some different and interesting channel that the visitor know more about the insects. In the setting area near the pond, there are noted the explanations of dragonflies on the timber. During appreciating dragonflies, the visitor could find their details on the seat.

The Ladders & Slide The visitor can walk on the footbridge through the slope or climb up through the ladders. Meanwhile, the shape of Common Blue Damselflyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s abdomen was developed with a slide at the end of the footbridge, which is not just for children, it is for everyone to play. These elements provide more interaction between visitors and the design.
