-SITE ANALYSIS GREEN RESERVE THE TREES
RESERVING
The key word here is “reserve”. The reason why we want to reserve the greening is because of In Fotian, espect for the valley. we don’t have much greening in the site, because of the high density of the vertical industrial buildings. So we are plan to reserve the main tree and reorganize the lanscape. Which become of the lankmark of our square.
REORGANIZE THE GROUD-FLOOR GREENING (UNSYSTEMED)
In the original site on the both side of the commercial building, there are plenty of trees. we are planning to reserve the main trees, reorganize the groud- floor greening and redesign the unimpressive lanscape design.

The cooked food market
Unused Playground Reason why unused is because the site of the playground is not near residential building and the facilitiies are old. we are going to change one of them into preformance place. Traditional cooked food market the cooked food market need to be reserved because of they it is one of the special elements in Fo tan. Solving the parking problem The parking space are not enough in Fotan, so if we remove the parking space we need to find another place to resettle them.

“Hey, I heard that in the square there have some special cooked foodmarket that is different from otherelse in HK. Let’go to eat!”
People feel convenient that they don‘t need to find another parking space in Fo tan far from the Dining and playground in the Square.
PLANING OF NORMAL DAYS
This is our design plan. we are now not moving the parking space in this area. we still reserve the funtion of the playground but reorganize the location. so that between the playground and the cooked food market, it will have a small square under the tree for people to rest after eating or playing. so normal days,people can Eating，playing and after that they can rest in the small square.
ARTISTS PAINTING DECORATIONS
RESERVED THE TREES
RENEW THE COOKED FOOD MARKET As we are planing to reserve the trees, so we design to combine the cooked food market and trees together ，to make it look like natural and special. also about the interior design, we use some elements that can represent Fo tan industry culture. such as the pipe and the cargo to decorate it. and also artist also can join in painting on the roof.
FUTURE IMAGE
EVENT DAYS
Things will be different when Festival and Special event comes. the playgroundwill be temporarily utilized by the premission of the policythe floor will bedecorated in Festival pattern and design some big balloons flow in the air. the tourist and the artist and worker in the building can see directly there are some events happen here. and also the events will drive the business of the cook food market.
When Festival comes the pedestrian road way will decoreated of the festival pattern. so that the visitors can follow the pattern find the location of the event.
