Observe and analyse the different views from the bedroom, the living room and the countryard.
In the center of the site, water elements are used to form the visual focus. A variety of hidden attractions are located in the courtyard strategically. The shapes and space edges show the disorder, but the interesting topic makes the overall view harmonious. In addition, there are a lot of elevation changes and plants, which divide the courtyard into different spaces.

[ DESIGN PROCESS ] The South Science Building The site is located between the North Science Building(NS) and the South Science Building(SB). As an interchange of two direction of traffic, the circulations and the users are complex. The purpose of this project is to solve the circulation problem and guide the pedestrians to different directions.

The project is between SB and NB's corridor and the pavement under footbridge is retained. Also,a large lawn nearby.
The project connects the existing corridors to upgrade the pedestrain circulation system, while keep the original circulation.
The site is surrounded by lawns. The backet is placed on the lawn, forming a special landscape.
The project is based upon the sight from NB and SB and the view of the eastern waterscape.

[ Existing Condition / Problem / Rewal Purpose ]
[ EXISTING CONDITION ANALYSIS ]
Circulation
Because the secondary entrance connects to the corridor directly, it becomes the main traffic entrance. Also, the circulation mainly goes through the edge of plaza, so the inner space is not utilized fully.
Space
The plan corresponds to the edge line of main building. The sloping entrance is not opposite to the gate, so the road is deviated. Also, the monotonous geometry block lacks interesting space.
Plants
The main plant of plaza is lawn and trees(Alstonia scholaris, Roystonea regia, Ficus benjamina L, Duranta repens, Cinnamomum burmanni, Schefflera octophylla, Cycas revoluta Thunb, etc), which lacks shrubs.
SITE
The North Science Building
ABOUT SITE
The site is located in the entrance of the North Science Building (north side of the main road at the campus) in Guangzhou University. The northwest side is enclosed by main building and there is a stairs to the second floor (the cafe on the second floor is open soon).

Bench
Only four benches are arranged beside the road with bad shade effect, so people do not want to sit there.
Drainage
Due to the subsiding of ground and imperfection of draining system, the rainwater gather in the middle and two sides of the plaza, which causes much inconvenience.
Lighting
Because the space of plaza has not been used, the light does not turn on all the time.
[PROBLEM ]
[REDESIGN PURPOSE ]
1. The road to the main entrance is deviated 2. Monotone funtional space design 3. Poor vertical green design 4. The lack of connection between the plaza and the green belt near the site
1. Redesign the function of the main entrance 2. Change the atmosphere of plaza and increase the usage rate of plaza 3. Design the landscape green plants reasonably 4. Consideration of econimic cost and create maximum benefit with smallest change

[ Perspective ]
[ PRESPECTIVE ]
The functional space of plaza mainly composed of the main road( Using paving stone instead of lawns, making full use of seats) and the disscussion space( Salon and group work).
The mainly users of plaza are teachers and students from the architecture department. Because the teaching feature of architectue major is the interaction of teaching and learning, the design of plaza should fully take the space for communication and exhibition into consideration.
28
Set up a small plants community at the entrance, forming a sight attraction. Place some models on the lawn. Plant some Pyrostegiaignea on the wall to add visual interest.
