UNIVERSITY 02 WUHAN Landscape Path Design Concept This path is located in Wuhan University, Luojia mountain. After inspection we found that the lighting, drainage, railings, retaining walls, pavement, trees, and other landscape facilities need to be repaired. This path lacks landscape planning and some relevant landscape facilities. We decided to keep the original style of the path. Landscape stone are planed to be placed at the entrance in order to strengthen the guide system. The floor lamp are planed to be added on the one side of the stairs because the street lights are broken and planned to be removed. The resting platform and relevant facilities are planed to built in the middle of stairs, so the pedestrians can take a rest while using the stairs. The retaining wall are planed to be repaired. There are seats for pedestrians to rest in the west side. The staircase handrails will become more secure after repairing. I am responsible for the hand-drawing concept of perspective of the main entrance, middle path and west side.

WORKS 05 UNDERGRADUATE Practice and Homework
The inspiration of the model came from the shape of broken mirror and the images of rubbing, organised in different ways to divide the space.
To explore the possibility of transformation between abstract images to real model and the diversity of space. I created this model by arranging multiple rectangles. The path inside is used to connect the space.
