The site is the south Interchange of viaduct located in the juncture of the southern viaduct and the eastern viaduct in Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province. There are residential areas, factories, green space and parking lots around the site, some of which bring about the severe problems such as noise, pollution and lots of negative space. For transforming and utilizeing of the recreational amenity, my position is to build environment, synthesize Nature and assemble Ecology in the site. In this project, preservation and innovation come together through the adaptive reuse of the existing structure as a new, compelling, one-of-a synthesized combination of recreational amenity and public breathing space.

2. Organize the new paving system, which is less a pathway and more a combed or furrowed landscape, this intermixing creates a textural effect of immersion, strolling “within” rather than feeling distanced from.

3.Slow things down to promote a sense of duration and of being in another place, where time seems less pressing. Long stairways, meandering pathways, and hidden niches encourage taking one’s time.

3. The site is designed to provide daily entertainment and leisure for surrounding residents based on traditional and original features of the areas. 4. The ornamental elements in the park come from the abstract of national pattems and unique elements in local architectures.On the other hand,select local crops to create ecological and high-yield environment.

AGRICULTURE

DESERT

The geographical terrain is in line with the aboriginal culture and activities of the regional characteristics of the landscape shape. The aborigines live at the foot of the mountain, and farm in the flat with the river from the mountain on high altitude by Karez. Less people live in the Gobi which is far away from the flat.

Aimed to protect the rare fossils as near as possible, I plan to build a museum in the flat to show treasure ores and fossil and provide related knowledge about the geography. The site is in the east of the city roads and the other three sides are surrounded by hills. According to the site's features and exhibition theme of ore elements, I decide to make the form like a stone. This stone-shaped museum is located in a flat ringed on three sides by mountains, and a river flowing around it and an atrium full of water is in the architecture, too. No matter where a visitor make sense of this museum, from the outsider or the insider of the building, can he appreciate the integration with the surrounding environment. 19

SITE STUDY The Study Area is located west of Sheffield city. Half of the site sits within Sheffield’s green belt and west suburbs, whilst the other half lies within the Peak District National Park. The total scale of the site is 3163 ha (7815 ac). Both Loxley Valley and Rivelin Valley run west to east within the Study Area. A large portion of the Study Area’s land uses are devoted to pastoral farming and managed moorland. Other land uses such as small scale settlements and suburbs, dams and water treatment and amenity landscapes are also present in the landscape.

PROJECT AIM The aim of this project is to plan locations and scenarios of wind turbines, which can generate 10MW, using Landscape Character Assessment.

PROJECT PROCESS 1. Defining the scope and project purpose 2. Landscape Character Assessment; 3. Landscape Sensitivity and Capacity study; - Landscape Sensitivity to windfarm development = Landscape Character Sensitivity + Visual Sensitivity - Landscape Capacity = Overall Landscape Sensitivity + Landscape Value. 4.

Sketch showing Tributary Ancient Pasture Valley

Designations and specific planning policies were considered. Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and ancient woodland are shown on this map.

A series of maps showing topography, hydrology, history, landcover and vegetation types, soil types and geology, habitats and land use.

LCA Creation

Overlaying natural, cultural and social factors of the site.

Field Survey documents created

To consider existing LCAs at different hierarchies maps available from Sheffield city council/Peak District National Park authorities were overlain. They provide an initial idea about Landscape Character Areas.

From this information the final version of the Landscape Character Assessment could be produced. A Landscape Character Map showing Landscape Character Types and Areas are shown on page two.

A draft LCA map was created to inform where to visit during the field survey visits. This was modified following the field survey.

Consultants devised 7 Landscape Character Types with key characteristics and descriptions (the latter found in the associated supplementary paper). Within these, a total of 17 Landscape Character Areas were highlighted.

LANDSCAPE CHARACTER ASSESSMENT

Landscape character assessment ( LCA ) is a standardised system used to identify, define, classify and map variations of the character of the landscape. By doing this we may see the differences and similarities between landscapes, to consider the contribution of specific landscape elements to its overall character. LCA also provides a standpoint from which we can monitor and evaluate change across a landscape.

LANDSCAPE SENSITIVITY Landscape Sensitivity and Capacity field surveys were conducted. Results were then assessed to decide the least sensitive Landscape Character Areas. The least sensitive areas were then checked for their capacity for windfarm developments. The Landscape Character Area with the highest capacity for wind turbine development was then taken on to further study.

Wind Turbine Spatial Configuration Options 2 rotor widths

When deciding upon layouts for the turbines the following design principles were adhered to: 1) Either orderly clusters, or orderly rows respecting land contours have been shown to be the most aesthetically pleasing.

4) Wind turbines will face west towards the prevailing wind and so this is expressed in the visualizations Spacial configurations that were tested with different turbine options are: 41

DETAIL SITE SELECTION House Buffer Zones & Access Roads To be aware of the limitations of windfarm development layouts the following map shows: 300, buffer Zone from buildings - provides suggestions of locations most likely to be a suitable distance from residences to minimise visual and auditory disturbances. Access roads - provides suggestion of locations where wind turbines can be accessed easily. Peak District National Park boundary - The Peak District National Park is considered visually sensitive and so locating turbines outside this area may be logistically more suitable. Ideally , wind turbines should be situated on shallow slopes and flat ground. The information from this map was combined with the map above to narrow down options for locating the wind turbines. Although these maps have been used for inform possible scenario locations for this project, a final decision would be made by engineers.

- two sites located, these are scenarios 1 and 2; - spacial configuration/possible layouts tested against perceptions Following this information the layouts chosen to look at in more detail for the two sites are: circle, line, and following the contour line. These were looked at against the topography and field patterns. Aerial Views Explanation

Circle - Scenario 1 test

The areal views to the right give an impression of which wind turbine layout might be the most aesthetically pleasing. Two different final layouts are chosen for scenario 1 and 2 based on the turbines relationship with topography field patterns., existing vertical structures, shadows and landmarks created. Reasoning for the decisions made are given in the far right hand columns.

SCENARIOS ON THE SITE Areal Views of Possible Windfarm Layouts

CIRCLE

LINE

- Research shows that wind turbines are aesthetically pleasing in cluster formation. The circle pattern means that turbines are seen this way from all distances.

- The line pattern respects existing landscape features such as vegetated belts and the ridge of the hill.

- This pattern type makes the wind turbines become a new aesthetic landscape element and perhaps, also a new landmark.

- Mimics line of surrounding vertical features (tree lines and power lines) means that the wind turbines respect existing landscape forms.

CONTOUR LINE

CONTOUR LINE

- The wind turbines follow the existing contour lines.

- The wind turbines follow the existing contour lines.

- The plantation located on the left side of the wind farm provides a background for the turbines.

- The wind turbines follow the existing filed pattern in a more organic form.

- The wind turbines follow the existing filed pattern in a more organic form.

GIS ZTV RESEARCH SCENARIO 1

Land form, surrounding vegetation and other landscape elements will all have an effect on how large the wind turbines appear in the landscape. For example, large slopes can dwarf the size of wind turbines and reduces its visual impact. Concurrently small scale hills may make even the smallest turbines look large. Studies show that turbines should appear as part of the sky rather than with a backdrop of the earth, leading a mystical futuristic quality. As well as this the intersection of turbine tower and ground plan should be concealed as far as possible. Our chosen site is relatively gently undulating, which will help achieve this appearance.

Aesthetic appeal of the silhouettes, shadows created in the areal images to the right for the two scenario options will help a decision to be made regarding best scenario and layout.

After centuries of development of the West open pit, some serious problems have gradually manifested, including air pollution, dust and flooding .

In 2000,the mine took the plan of horizontal row mining to achieve a row. The current object of mine land reclamation is the former external dump.

The first picture presents the history and topography of the site. First, it tells the position and satellite flat contour layers on its topography. And then it is derived from the plantoa virtual Map distinguished in a signal of red color as the lowest depressions, and yellow color as the distinguished tables. Cut it to show the mine’s internal ore distribution layer and the chart of the output of three main kinds of ore per year.Along with the left slope of the mountain showing the historical development, from the old era to the new era corresponding to the line from the bottom to the top, which concludes the mode of development during each period. The second graph expresses the mode of mineralmining and transportation here.Distinct the distribution areas with a series of colors stand for different modes of transport in the left plan. And the right illustrate explains the relationship between transport and terrain, and each corresponding way to the height is listed on; the lower figure reflected in the first grapgh- red block as the signal of the lowest points also represents the excavator mining method, The same details of the mineral contents are described in the cross-section, that mining methods and manual labor derived from.

Keep in mind to take wisdom to understand, analyze and judge the problems, and then the answers will manifest themselves. Be not ill both in the mind and action, but do good deeds as a eternal belief.

PHOTOS AND DRAWINGS

I have been learning to record the nice moments for the places I visited and traveled using my camera and pens, which would become my priceless treasure. These pictures would be the best proof of my footprints.

DECONSTRUCTION

By the way of deconstruction of the still life, I can understand its structure and restructure it and constitute parts of it into two-dimensional drawings or three-dimensional space. And then, I will decorate different morphology or function on the drawings with various kinds of materials to express its contents better.
