MANIFESTO

Myinteriordesignmanifestoisthat“greendesigncancreateahealthy,safeandcomfortablelivingenvironment”. In modern society, with the rapid development of economy, a series of environmental problems begin to appear. In the face of serious environmental pollution, the use of green design concept in interiordesignhasbecomeaninevitabletrendofsocialdevelopment.Theintroductionofgreendesignconceptcancreatemorehealthy,environmentalfriendly,comfortableandsafeindoorspace forpeople.Greendesignconceptrequiresdesignerstoreduceenergyconsumptionandreuserawmaterialsininteriordesign.Firstly,designerscanusegreenfurnituretoreduceresourceconsump tion and make effective use of renewable energy. Secondly, designers should fully consider ventilation design, natural lighting and comfortable thermal environment. In addition, designers should useenvironmentallyfriendlymaterialstoensureindoorhealthandsafety.Atthesametime,theproperuseofplantsandwatercanmaketheroommorebeautiful,whichcanalsoadjusttheindoor temperature, humidity and people’s physiological and psychological balance. The introduction of green design concept not only makes interior design develop to a higher level and realm, but also makestheecologicalenvironmentmoreoptimized.

INTERSECTIONS BRIEF When we come across living issues, the main issue facing most urban residents today is the growth of

economic pressure of life. At the same time,

since industrialization began monopolize to food production and not forgetting to mention the fast speed of urbanization, food growing is set apart from the urban environment. Food waste is common in cities because they didn’t have a chance to see the production process called “from farm to table” and ignore the cost (financial and ecological) of food production. Traditionally food growing is an inseparable part of human daily activity. Therefore the project brings a series of new residences toEdinburgh University studentsand retireesfrom different family lifestyles who are financiallystressed ,forminganewhomethatredefineswhatitmeanstobehome.Here,theconceptof

green, healthy,and low-carbonlifeisapplied

inreal-lifescenariostopromotemorepeopleto payattention , understandand participate inthepracticeof sustainableliving .Greenarchitecture,or greendesign,isanapproachtobuildingthatminimizesharmfuleffectsonhumanhealthandtheenvironment.(Roy,208) Bycreatinga healthycoexistingmetabolicsystemoftheverticalecologicalforest,thisprojecttriestosolvetheproblemsofbringingfoodproduction systems into the urban environment. The project aims to seek the possibility of merging the food growing system

with the urban contextwhile

revitalizing the neighbourhood with anew possible futurefor public common space. The aim is to awaken the public’s crisis awareness of a series of environmental issues by letting them inspect the whole food production and manufacturing process. The growing of regional crops and building resources bring residents together through shared investment, commonality and self-sufficiency empowering communities. Residents can regain their self-sufficiency during difficult economic times and reduce the pressure on their lives. This development model can provide services to communities andoperateasabenefic coexistenceinthearea. Urban agriculture canre-affirm community identity, enable training,contribute to local economies, improve people’shealth and diet, act as asourceofleisureandcontributetobiodiversity.(HoweandWheeler19-. A communal way of living can help to reduce the impact humanity has on climate change and planet Earth in general, while improving the conditions of living. I believe living together is about sharing and this is one of the most promising solutions to tackle contemporary issues and cope with future challenges.

By Sir Robert Matthew ( 1 9 0 6 - 7 5 ) , the David Hume Tower was designed to house the university’s Arts Faculty. It is an example of Scottish Modernism in which Matthew’s chosenmaterials,mostnotablystoneandtimber,createcontinuitywithtraditionalScottish architecture. It has been described as a building that represents “both the aspirations of thenationforitspost-warHigherEducationsystemandtheidealsofsomeofScotland’s

I initially chose the place in the middle of the basement. The initial idea was to use the French windows in the middle of the basement to start the design. The purpose is that the planting needs sunlight. However, after a series of considerations and research in the later stage, I finally changed the location tothe13th-14thfloor. 14THFLOOR
