Eco-Plaque and Corridor system I Introduce
Integration
Animal living nodes and corridors
With the economic development and population growth,Tianjin needs more and more land to build and develop. However, over expanded city is not suitable for people to live, and it is worse for the eco-system of the city. In this program,we hope to design a eco-city which is kindly for human and environment. In the eco-system design, we focus on two aspects : Eco-plaque and corride conservation, open green space.
By analysis of plaque data, we confirm the animal conservation area,including habitat, living corridor and nodes.
Research & design method Confirm major protection area and find potential plaquas that can be developed for conservation.
To better guide the ecological protection, we focus on two essential types of animal corridor developing planning. We analyze animal habitat and habits, confirm the relationship of abstracted nodes and find the potential corridors. Then we design the potential living nodes and corridors to develop their habitat.
I. Analyze the present station and extract the Eco-Plaque
II. Abstract Eco-Plaque as nodes of eco-system for further analysis.
III. Find the relationship of nodes build the connection and create the Eco-network.
Eco-Plaque select In order to research the relationship between each nodes and ensure the potential nodes, I divided the plaques into three groops based on their area.
Major protection area will expand and intergate small plargues around them.The first process will be finished in 2020s.
We confirm the potential plaques from three groups to develop.
The second process will be completed in 2030s. Finally, major protection area and some small area will be build in the protection system. 3

Open Green Space System II Space research & network
Special Subject---Network
Because the lack of small open space(0.4-2.0ha) in Tianjin, we use central district of city for the trial, through study the level of Green Converge rate [GC] ,Service Radius Coverage rate [SRC] and Per Capita Green Space rate[PCGS], to guide small green space development.
Park-system condition analysis
In the aspect of large scale green open space, we build three levels of green space (>500ha,100-500ha,20-100ha) to complete the green space network. Moreover, these green space are combined with transport system, in order to make them accessible through reasonable routes.
Note:
Small space area is 0.4-2.0 ha, service radius is r=200 m. Walking speed is 5 km/h, suitable walking time is 5 min, maximum patience walking is 15 min.
Network Research Step
The Park system is important subsystem of green space system. Rational Park-system can provide more green space for human and can benefit the environmental protection work and increase the living quality. So we analyze the current condition of the Tianjin park-system and find pros and cons.
So,in the research, people can Walk 200 m in 2 min and suitable walking distance is 300 m. Mode 1 SRC 100%

These rail design is for 2020yeas t r a n s p o r t a t i o n s y s te m . T h e y present the relationship between rail transportation and residential area. Tianjin has just only one rail line in 2008years , so I don't present it here.
Current residential condition analysis Note: in these analysis , current residential conditions are divided into three levels.First level present better condition or high demand. Second level present normal condition or normal demand.Third level present worse condition or low demand.
We analyze the status of living conditions, including Employment, House quality, Water source, Environment, transportation, public service, to summary of current situation and to make rail transport design. We found good conditions and highly outgoing demand are mainly in the Old Town residential area, while the coastal district basically has no good traffic conditions.
Demand of Rail station analysis
In the 2020s residential planning, the coastal district will be rapidly developed and will have grate outgoing demand. Also, some area scattered around the central will be developed and will face the same problem.
In order to design an effective system, we analyze the resident outgoing flow to find the need of setting the line. And research statistic data from transport agency to find the potential station. Moreover, it is essential for us to combined the design of green open space system to plan the Rail transportation system. Then finally , we forecast the location of the station. The new system can service the major area and solve a lot of traffic problems.
In order to face the increasing demand of outgoing and decrease the traffic problems such as pollution and congestion, we plan to develop low-carbon traffic instrument--subway and light rail, to solve the problems.

Rail Transportation System III Near-term Transportation Considering the government residential land plan, we plan to design 6 rail lines as near-term transportation. These lines will cross the major area of the city and new developed coastal district. New rail lines and stations have covered most working area and communities. We consider two kinds of reaching station service: people can go these station by bicycle or walk. In the 2012s, rail instrument is not the master method people chose. However, rail instrument will relieve the press of bus instrument and the congestion of the road. Then near-term will Preliminary achieve target of decreasing the Emissions of CO2 .
Near-term abstruct analysis
Long-term abstruct analysis
Long-term Transportation Near-term plan is not enough to complete the goal of Low-carbon outgoing transportation and it should have enough time to develop rail transportation. So we make a long-term plan [2020s goals and 2030s goals] to guide the development. In the 2020s, there will be 14 rail lines in the city and the subways and light lines will become the major transportation. People can choose them conveniently to go their work place ,supermaket or home and will cost little time than it is now. In the 2030s , there will be 19 rail lines and transfer system will cover every line. Also, there will be some big transportation hub to control the outgoing flow in the city and between the city. Moreover, there will be some hub special for the eco-travel which can be good for people to reach the open green space.

The abandoned factory located near the center of the Tangshan city. It was a cement factory in the past and its area is 30 ha. Now,the factory is moved outside the city and the old factory needs reconstruction.
The city developed quickly in recent years and there are many communities developed near the factory. Considering the location of factory and the needs of environment and business,we design the two plan to meet the needs. This design will not only increase the quality of environment, but also meet the need of business.The major area will be reformed for the Factory Theme Park. Others will be used for business development. The business land will be reformed as green space. The whole park will provide more green space for citizens. It will be one of the most important public space in the center of city. Because of fast development, The center of the city should be significant reformed.However, there are two serious problems.
Under the guidance of Professor Hou Xin, I cooperated with Liu Sishuo did this design. My work is design major reserved buildings and landscape in the near-term design. In the long-term design, I designed landscape system and hand drawings. Liu Sishuo From 2008.3 to 2008.7
Tangshan is located in earthquake zone of China,but there is not enough refuge space in center, such as park or square.Moreover, Tangshan was a heavy industrial city in the past and there were many heavily polluting factories in the center. They caused serious environment problem. Facing these problems,What is necessary to be reconstructed?
Current stituation analysis I Strategy analysis
Generation process
The factory locates near the central of the city, and there are a lot of residential communities around it. So we should consider not only the economic function ,but also living quality and safety. For meeting the needs, we design two plans-near-term design and long-term design.
Combination the analysis of the background information, we confirm the theme of the reconstruction, the major reserved area and architectures, the area of business and space nodes. Then we design the project through a reasonable process [as follows]:
In the near-term plan, there will be parts of land used for business development and the central of the factory will be used as the Cultural Park of factory, which can provide citizens good environment and public space for various entertainments. In the long-term plan ,the land of business will transformed into green space and the whole land will be used for the theme park for citizen. It will be the major shelter if there happened some disasters such as earthquack.
Step 1 Initial screen the building needed to be cleaned or reconstructed according to their quality and scale.These buildings are mainly dangerous or in the collapse area.
Step 2 Through field research of abandoned factory, we confirmed the important space nodes and major buildings which can be used for presenting the the culture of factory. Then we analyzed the land use and traffic outside the factory and decided which streets should be reserved as the core of theme park.Also, we determined the business area which can be developed now and will not influence the reconstruction of future.
Order the mechanism of the reserved buildings and organize the open space. They are mainly located in the major axis of traffic or on the both side of cultural street.
Step 3 Design the space created by the business buildings and their Architectural forms. They create half-closed space in the design.
Step 4 Use the river source near the factory and create the water space system in the factory. Then design the major public buildings and green space nodes.
Stituation analysis The quality of traffic near the factory is good and there are major city roads on the north and south. Some major roads in the factory are preserved for the design of reconstruction. The buildings of the factory on the both side of major street are still in good condition and some big workshops and warehouses can be transformed into Exhibition and Art Salon. Moreover, the steel corridor will become the symbol of the theme park and will be used for walk and sightseeing trip. There are a lot of green space,abandoned tank,subsidence area and stockyard in the factory, and they can be used for landscape and water space.

Reconstruction analyze III Steel corridor Reconstruction There are a lot of steel corridors in the factory and most of them are used for freight the goods between the buildings. Also, some of them are used for the passageway to people. Because some of them are in bad condition or the scale of them are not suitable for people to use, we should disassemble and reassemble them to build a new corridor system. In the design of reconstruction, the major height of them are 3.5m, and some of them are 2m. They are used to conntect the majoy buildings and building an interesting corridor-walking system. Visitors can enjoy a charming view of the factory through the Transparent glasses.
Cooling tower is steel structure and it is reserved in the new design. Visitors can feeling the frame of factory and its culture.
Also, there are all kinds of art exhibitions and pictures in the corridors and they will create art space for visitors. Moreover, it will be used for bracing frame of the buildings.
Cement processing workshop is a large body construction. Although parts for it cannot be used, cylinder structure is reserved and as a remark of the factory.
Walk between the buildings and enjoy the exhibition or shows in the steel corridors.

Material software is the important node in the design, Its location and achitectal space is special and useful. It can be used for theater.
The steel corridor can be used for bracing the architecture.
Interior space of factory workshop is huge and open, so it is suitable for indoor entertainment and salons. It also can be used for workplace.
It also can be used for connecting Pipelines or pipeline Art.
Factory chimneys are still in good condition and very high (>15m) , so they can be used as viewing towers for enjoy the charming view. 22
Long-term Reconstruction II Steel structure Component In the long-term design, buildings should have connection with the outside space So we design the steel frame to create an semi-open space to increase the space of continuity these component will be used as entrance of the building or halfspace for rest Moreover, it will be a good ecotope of the park and will be harmonious with the steel corridor system.
The main landscape nodes In the long-term design, the business area will be used for green space system The green space system will include lots of space nodes which will shows their special themes Some public buildings will changed the architectural forms to suit the new system but will not changed a lot there will be more open water and green space, walking and vision axeses for visitors Whether they are in or around the park, they will enjoy the charming view from various directions

The program is design new Central Business District [CBD] of Huanghua city.The area locates outside the current center.The population of the city will be 830,000 in 2020s and CBD's area is 452 ha.
Huanghua will develop quickly because of new major port and national policies. However, the current center is not suitable for the development. Then in the master plan, The city should build new CBD. We analyzed master plan of government and policies, confirmed the scale of development, traffic system and land use.Then we used the source of wetland and river for building landscape and traffic system. The design will not only meet the development need, but also preserve environment. It will be an Sustainable Development. Huanghua city locates in the area of National North Development Center. There are major cities such as Beijing and Tianjin near it and its location and traffic condition has great potential development space.
Under the guidance of Professor Chen Tian, I cooperated with Li Yifan did this design. My work is the major area design and its landscape,aspect ratio research and traffic system. Li's work is make model,regional plan and policy analysis.

The program is design New Campus of Tianjin University.The site is a wasteland located outside city's center. The new campus' area is 410 ha. The number of student and teacher is 34,000.
Considering the scale of the univesity and the needs of development , I confirmed the scale of campus is for 40,000 students and teachers. The site is wasteland so I used the river to build the Waterscape System. I want to keep the style of old campus and build a Green Campus. A l s o I d e v i d e d t h e a re a i n to f o u r functional group and decreased the influences of each others. Each group will enjoy their own atmosphere.
Under the guidance of Professor Chen Tian, I cooperated with Li Yifan analyzed the background condition . Then I did this design alone because of teacher's request that everyone should design a project.

The Fragrant Hill Hotel, designed by Ieoh Ming Pei in 1984s, was the representative building influenced by Chinese Classic building ideology. By useing differences of the topographical height and landscape in the Xiangshan park in Beijing, the designer devided the hotel into five functional areas. Visitors could enjoy Chinese traditional garden space from every perspective. However, the design tactic of Chinese traditional garden is not suitable for the current high-density development in the city. So, The program aims at designing a new Chinese garden which is not only high-density development, but also inherits the characteristic of Chinese traditional garden.
Visit path and nodes of Fragrant Hill Hotel
Visit path and nodes of Master-of-Nets Garden
I choosed one of the most outstanding Chinese gradens, Master-of-Nets Garden, to research the visit path and space nodes of Chinese traditional garden space and design methods. Then based on the comperation of Fragrant Hill Hotel, I integrated the advantages and designed a new unit of Chinese garden. It can be used for many kinds of buildings in high-density area.

Through assumed that the visit path is straight line and conbined the section and site plan expand view, We can find the relation between path and the landscape around it. When people followed the path, they will enjoy different spaces and landscape.Through setting different length of the path, the time spent on the landscape and space will be different. It could create different atmosphere for visitors. The designer of Master of Nets Garden created a good Chinese traditional garden through adjusting the relation between the landscape factors and path. So I analyzed it and created a network system (36m*36m square,) to adjust the path system to suit the current development. Then combined the analysis of Fragrant Hill Hotel, I designed a new path system. Path design

I abstracted the path system and adjusted it in the 36m*36m network.Then I combined the landscape factors (such as wall and pillar) and functional needs, the three-dimensional path and landscape was designed. In the new design, I used the ramp and nonlinear path to create the feelings of landscape in the Master-of-Nets Garden.People could enjoy the landscape from various perspectives.Because three-dimensional garden system, the new design will not restricted by the needs of large area. Moreover, it can be builded in the top of the building or overlaied alone.

The program is researching and mapping the Chinese ancient temple of Guan Yu, one of the most famous chancellors. The temple is builded in memory of him in 589 AD. These buildings represent the Chinese special building of timber structure. Through this program , I learned the ancient Chinese form of building and their design philosophy.
The Door is the most impor tant building in ancient culture and there are three doors in the courtyard. They represent the status, reputation and grade. This is the first door in the courtyard and there are two doors after it. It is normal and has some common decorations on the lintel and ridge. The styles of decoration include some famous flowers .They represent the great qualities:
Our group's work is measuring and drawing the forecourt and my major work includes front door, memorial archway and pagoda.

The Chinese Silk Road was one of those trade routes that brought together music, culture , ideas and foods , and really connected people around the world .My hometown is one of the most important cities in the road. It likes a shining pearl in the grand deserts. It has a long-standing history, distinctive ethnic flavor and profound cultural foundation, enjoy great fame in China.
Unfortunately, as like other cities in china ,it is experiencing an unprecedented urbanization and is lost itself in the process. The images taken before cannot be catched today. Moreover, the city is facing major challengespublic , health, environment, sustainable food, renewable energy, efficient transportation, etc.
To be a designer, I hope to do my best to find the suitable way to introduce the developmet of the city , to protect these heritage of human civilization. It is my responsibility! It is my dream!
