LANDSCAPE DESIGN AND INNOVATIVE DETAIL// MODERNIZING MIT: KILLIAN COURT

Studio Work 2011 Fall

This studio aims at 'an innovative approach to site design and detail'. Killian court, the landmark entrance of Massachusetts Institute of Technology, once expressed the nobility of its purpose and the dignity of its work. As time evolved, the landscape design of Killian Court fails to stimulate new on-site programs and satisfy contemporary needs. The re-design of Killian Court explores the relationship between modern design and classical work of architecture. Departs from the dominant architectural context, the court is re-invigorated by providing chances of programs, while within the language of elegant. Employing the basic elements of water, grass, trees, pavement and furniture, a place of grandeur yet subtly stimulates activities and communication is created. Simple and open as its first look, diverse atmosphere comes from the rich composition.

Site analysis-- Design starts from the on-site analysis. Situated in the middle of the heavily used building, Killian Court is surprisingly under-utilized. It is mainly used for cross-traffic, but fails to attract long-time stay. The overgrown vegetation masks off the beauty of the neo-classicism architecture, blurring the identity of modern and technology campus. As I study the scale of outdoor environment and the relation to social activities, I found out that Killian Court is out of human scale, lacking guidance to people's behavior and definition of space. Therefore, it is important to design a proper scale landscape to stimulate social activities.

There would be grand grass steps to go up into the court. The east and west corridors along the building accomodates intense programs, directing people's flow into the court. The adjacency to the waterscape or tree alless would create different atmosphere. The central open lawn keeps the grandeur of the building, while being flexible for various events. Two side-courtyards are design in a garden-like place, with furnitures under the tree canopy, in order to be utilized as the outdoor classroom.

A reflection pool and two tree allees are arranged asymmetrically yet in balance.The great reflection pool strengthen the serenity and the memoriality. The hardscape around the building edge accommodates intense programs and circulation, subtlely implies the directionality of movement. The paving inherit the same material as building facade, connecting seamlessly with water or glass. The grand lawn keeps the landscape open and visually connects to the Boston area.

Detail design-- Referring and embracing to the architectural and infrastructural context, the site-specific details are both adaptive and inventive. For example, the size of the pavement is carefully designed to incorporate the architecture as well as to create diverse sense of scale. The flatness of the design ensures the sense of simple elegance, yet a lot of studies were made to ensure the successful drainage. The detail of construction as well as the section is made in order to guarantee the feasibility of the design. Custom bench is inspired by the materiality and verticality of the windows, and designed as an integral part of wholeness.

LANDSCAP DIGITAL MEDIA// FABRICATING GROUNDS: ECOLOGICAL WALL

Course Work 2011 Fall

The course is aimed at fostering a conceptual as well as technical approach to the introduction of digital design and fabrication techniques within landscape design and construction process. Taking advantage of emergent and established techniques and processes in order to develop prototypes for new landscape systems that reshape and reorganize surface and topographical ground condition. Start from the digital technique, our project progresses as mediating heat urban accumulation. Seeking a reasonable logic between design and computer language, the project advance into the fabrication stage that require further compromise.

Mesh that holds soil Geo-textile Moss and substrate Tray

Variation

Shade-tolerant Moss Sun-tolerant Moss

A single module is composed by the base and the planter. The planter is the system that including the tray, the moss and substrate, geo-textile and the mesh. Since the angle of the planter varies, the micro-environment is different. Therefore, the moss should be accordingly selected based on the sun-exposure time and humidity.

Fabrication Prototype There are four types of module in the ecowall. They varied according to the solar radiation amount on the original facade. As more solar radiation, there is more green area to absorb solar energy. On the other hand, the height of the base is lower, in order to cast more shade onto the facade to lower the temperature.

Model Photo

As explored the fabrication by intergal milling in mid-term, for final prduction we use contour and mash. By using this way, we can make a more detail-scale model. On the other hand, the structure and joint need to be considered. The way of contour and mesh is our exploration to represent the form of double-curvature.

FABRICATING GROUNDS: ECOLOGICAL WALL

Course Work 2011 Fall Digital Media/Fabrication/Landscape Infrastructure Instructor: David Mah Partner: Junfeng WANG As in the complex urban environment, buildings together with the daily/annual solar radiance, would cause a local micro-climate. One direct result is an imbalance heat distribution on the building facade. However, the traditional building facades fail to respond to this physical restraint, which leads to a large sum of energy input to maintain a pleasant environment for human uses. The concept of ECOWALL generates from this observation, aims to create a wall system that absorb heat effectively as well as collect rainwater. Respecting the architecture, the ECOWALL would become a new urban landscape and functional infrastructure.

LANDSCAPE INFRASTRUCTURE// URBAN FLOODPLAIN: PUBLIC HOUSING AS ADAPTIVE FRONTAGE

Studio Work 2011 Spring

This studio entitled 'between the bridges, beyond infrastructure' is co-instructed by Susannah Drake and Stephen Cassel, as a continuous experimental design after 'Rising Current' exhibition in MOMA. Climate change and sea level rise as an urgent topic, poses new challenges to landscape design. The role of ecology and infrastructure, especially within the city, need to be rethink. This individual project takes New York City as an experimental ground, to envision a new landscape infrastructure to manage the sea level rise, storm surge and increasing population. The interpretation of landscape and urban fabric, can be an inspirational example .

URBAN FLOODPLAIN: PUBLIC HOUSING AS ADAPTIVE FRONTAGE

Studio Work 2011 Spring Landscape Urbanism Instructor: S.Drake, S. Cassel Individual Work Design narrative-- The site locates between Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridge, geographically acting as an urban frontage against sea level rise and storm surge. As it covered by hard surface today, how landscape can mitigate the climate changes, while re-organize the urban fabric and social-relationship? As the specific site I focus on, the Two Bridge Community is a public housing area that, fenced and seperated itself from both the urban environment and waterfront. Through the re-engagement with water by landscape infrastructure, this area would be re-connected to the urban, attracting people and establishing the real sense of public.

Along the east river, where is also the frontage that facing the potential category 3 hurricane, there is a long strip area of ppublic housing that can be transformed. Taking Two Bridge Community as an experimental start point, it can be transformed to develop unique strategy to cope with sea level rise. The landform would be modified to increase the upland portion, which would not be flooded as 5 ft SLR projection. A meandering water line is created to distribute and absorb stormwater.

LANDSCAPE URBANISM// ROMAN WATER GATES: NATURAL PROCESS MEETS URBAN PROCESS

Studio Work 2010 Fall

Instructed by Paola Cannavo, "Roman water gates" is a project that explores the contemporary encounter of urbanization, infrastructure and nature. Situated at the outskirts of Rome, Fiumicino is historically the water-gateway into Rome. Confronted by the expansion of airport as well as construction of new seaport, the city of Fiumicino faces seeks to search an ideal development that states its identity and connects back to the greater context. The notion of "landscape urbanism" is examed here, as the way that set landscape as a framework to direct and enhance the new urban development. The design takes the advantage of urban expansion and new construction as opportunity, to revitalize Fiumicino as a Mediterranean city that addresses tension between human and nature. Fiumicino thus can be the example that promoted along the Mediterranean coast.

ROMAN WATER GATES: NATURAL PROCESS MEETS URBAN PROCESS Studio Work 2010 Fall Landscape Urbanism/Ecology Instructor: Paola Cannavo Individual Work Overview and site analysis--Fiumicino is located in the larger context of Mediterranean coastline. Along this coastline there is a common type of coastal landscape. It composed by sand dune system, shrub system and woodland system, which change gradually from seashore towards inland. This natural landscape is inevitably disturbed and fragmented by the urban development. This is the situation for fiumicino. Visually, as I walked into Fiumicino, I was firstly impressed by the natural environment in the reserve. Meanwhile, the urban environment in Fiumicino, depriving of nature and thus public space, leading to low quality of life.

The aim is to establish the three systems into the wild environment. The vegetation of pioneer species is planted in three different systems to initiate the natural recovery. Meanwhile restoring the farm land inside the city, to create urban agriculture as the center of public life and social activities. The main vehicle road is built to divide the main space. Building pedestrian walkway to connect communities and the public space.

The aim is to enhance the evolving ecosystem. The sand dune system is mature at this stage so it accommodates recreational purposes. The wooden path will be built across the sand dune to bring people in and have activities there. Specific shrubs are planted to divide the new residential communities. The pedestrian walkway is extended into the natural systems and connected to the city. At this stage the port is completely built.

The aim is to maintain the natural system while allow it to be adaptive to the urban need. Diverse public spaces are evolved and accommodating different activities. Residence and hotels will be built according to actual need. The pedestrian walkway is completed and connected into three systems and the urban tissues. The train station for the port and the promenade is also completed while bring a large amount of tourists.

The natural restoration-- To understand the mechanism of nature restoration is the first important step, since the site is largely wasteland currently. There are three stages of restoration. In the pioneer stage, special pioneer species will be picked up and planted along the coastline. These pioneer species are highly tolerant for the wind and salinity. The nature restoration will also have succession stage and climax stage as time goes by. The different stages can be incorporated into the site development phasing--such as housing, tourism, commercial and infrastructure-- thus become a dynamic process according to time and different situations.

Master plan and design-- To let the natural process to meet with urban process means to let the natural system to provide a framework for the urban development, while being flexible to different needs. The nature becomes the public space and green space for the residents and tourists, at the same time attracting wild life to further complement the ecosystem. By restoration of three natural system-sand dune, shrub and woodland, the urban programs can be fit into different phases. Recreation, housing and commercial development is arranged within the framework of natural restoration while taking the advantage of different systems.

Shrub system is the most flexible system and is appropriate for both recreation and housing. Most part in the shrub system is under general restoration as mentioned before. The housing areas will be defined by special planting of shrubs -- usually high shrubs on the north and south side to prevent winter wind, and low shrubs on the west side to enhance summer wind. The housing areas are leave unplanted at the beginning, while the natural process will also take over these areas. It can be built accordingly when there is need for development.

The three systems-- Within the frame work of natural systems, urban development can be incorporated according to its characteristic. Sand dune systems, which will be restored first, is important to facilitate the ecosystem inland. It would be mostly protected, with some boardwalk for tourism. The shrub system which is the most flexible, would develop the housing to meet population grows. The vegetation structure can improve the micro-environment. Community parks are naturally come from the vegetation. The woodland system, which takes the longest time to restore, is for ecological, commercial and recreational programs.

LANDSCAPE PLANNING AND TOURISM// LUOJI MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK

Graduate Design 2009 Spring

This is a real project instructed by Professor Chengzhao WU in Tongji University, aiming at master planning the area with the criteria of national park. The studio explores the seemingly conflicting relationship between tourism and protection, engaging into the local tradition between human and nature. The studio offers an opportunity to field study, community investigation, developer presentation and academic research. As processes a whole semester long, the final product includes the large site analysis and planning, specific zone planning of tourism, traffic, infrastructure, ecological restoration, etc. Further detailed design of trail, reception, plantation, programs, and temple restoration are accomplished as well. The underpinning thesis is about the ecological restoration sustains the local development and tourism attraction. *This project was collaborated with Fangcheng ZHOU and Yijun LU at the aspect of planning, but developed individual design. All the drawings present here are individual work.

Yet the primary concern is about how to balance the environmental protection and tourism development. We first of all evaluate the scenic spots all over the area, in order to select the most desirable area to develop, leaving the other area as undisturbed or less developed. As the major scenic spots cluster on the high altitude, we selected two main zones for further detailed planning.

We hope to develop without much disturbance towards nature and existing condition. Therefore, all the traffic, infrastructure, facilities and amenities would be arranged at the adequate area, where impact can be managed. The ecological sensitive area is usually the high altitude area, where the ecosystem is fragile.

After a long time of human's occupancy, the land is severely destroyed by human activities such as farming, grazing and logging. The original forest, which sustains the whole ecosystem, remained only at the steep mountain top. The landform is terraced in order to facilitate farming. Consequently, the land in the valley is barren and only shrubs remain. To restore the ecosystem while keep the income for inhabitants, the economic forest--which consist of local species, would replaced the farmland and restore ecosystem.

LANDSCAPE DESIGN AND ARCHITECTURE PRESERVATION// WATER PARK: MEMORY CORRIDOR

Studio Work 2008 Spring

How do we define a site as a specific place that carries history and time? With the pace of rapid urbanization in China, regional memory is demolished by the deconstruction and ignorance. The site of this studio, M50 as newly named, is a place that meets the confront between history and new development. Located along the Suzhou Creek, the site was once a prosperous place that bred the Chinese industry a century ago. It developed as a commercial area in 50's, and dilapidated afterward. The site was re-flourished at 2000 by utilization of artists. Now it is transformed to crater the need of public recreation and waterfront park. Special as it is, the new design on site should respect the old architecture and emphasize their existence and confrontation against the new urban buildings. Landscape orchestrates the site as a whole post-industrial experience.

The space that enclosed by the buildings can be designed as a semi-open plaza that utilized the historic building facades as unique backdrop. It also performs as a transition from the architectural-dominant space towards the open natural water scenery.

The well preserved historic buiding-Foo Sing flour mill, with elegant red and grey brick, standing at the new waterfront. It performs as a destination building that draws people's attention and attracts people's move. It is the ending point of the memory corridor.

The narrow passage that formed by the two massive buildings, is a dramatic space that forces people's close interaction with the historic architecture and its detail. It directs people's flow and contrasts with the other open space in the park.

As some are not in good preservation, and some are in low historic value, a rating has been done to re-organize the preservation strategy. The excellent historic buildings, which have been nominated by authority, are the center of the following landscape design. Based on the natural spatial relationship that the buildings form, various design strategies would be develop in order to praise the beauty of history and architectures. Functionally, they can be re-used as art studios or public exhibition.

LANDSCAPE DESIGN// URBAN PLAZA: BRIDGING

Studio Work 2007 Fall

Urban plaza is supposedly located in the new cultural development area, surrounding by buildings such as library, elementary school, museum, youth palace and etc. The area is also the place for tourist destination. Lacking any contextual information, the plaza itself means to merge the site condition and create its own sense of place. Influenced and reflected by the adjacent programs, the plaza bridges the urban and nature together by its seamless fluency. The sharp angle and straight line of the design advocates its identity in this generic new zone. Nevertheless, it functionally merges all the programs and mediates the conflict of them.

LANDSCAPE DESIGN AND CULTURE// TRADITIONAL CHINESE GARDEN

Studio Work 2008 Spring

Traditional Chinese garden employs different techniques than the contemporary landscape design. Inspired by the poem and painting of Chinese culture, the garden seeks to express the personality of the owner. It abstracts the image of nature in the single element of water, rock, plantation. Yet represents them with relation of human in an poetic way that stimulates people's contemplation.

Traditional Chinese garden is the treasure in Chinese culture, which differs from modern design principles and techniques. Supposedly locating in Suzhou, China in Ming Dynasty (17 century), a garden need to be designed with the understanding of traditional Chinese culture and design techniques. Traditional Chinese garden, with the perfect balance of artificial and natural, becomes the ideal place for living, recreation, meditation, studying and gathering with friends and family. The designer of garden arranges carefully the spots of attraction as well as the route for visiting, creating rich yet diverse sceneries for each changing pace.

TRADITIONAL CHINESE GARDEN DESIGN

Studio Work 2008 Spring

Landscape Design/ History/ Chinese Traditional Culture/ Hand Drawing

Instructor:Ding HU

Individual Work

As the landscape elements orchestrated in multi-dimension, one could enjoy not only the visual beauty of water, rocks and plants, but also the euphoric sounds from the movement of water and plants, the scent from changing seasonality and weather. Traditional Chinese garden represents as a spiritual retreat of master's cultivation of inner character. He can practice calligraphy in the reading room, pondering on philosophy in pavilion, or gathering with friends in garden. The selection and composition of water, rocks, plants and architecture indicate virtuous qualities of human and universe, inspiring master's life-long pursuit on humanity.

MIX-USE DEVELOPMENT// SHANGHAI GARDEN PHASE II

HyperBina Inc. 2012 Spring

Shanghai Garden Phase II is a 28-acre mix-use development project that locates in Jianyin city, north of Shanghai, China. As an important project in the new development zone that aims at invigorate the area and sets the tone for future development, Shanghai Garden Phase II comprehensively involves urban design, architecture, landscape architecture, sustainability and marketing. Accommodating 1219 household units, the structure of the community landscape aptly balance the building density. Composed through three different-themed center parks, the community is interconnected by a meandering waterway that echoes the local waterfront live, as well as ecologically collecting and treating the urban rainwater. *As the project collaborates with Yonatan Cohen and Charles Harris and under the supervision of Dr. Bing Wang, my work is concentrated on the landscape design. The works present here are individual drawing
