Site 3: Art + Archaeology 57°57' N/ 03°20' W

Situated in the northern part of the Pentland Firth, Orkney Islands are renowned for having a number of archaeological and land art sites from prehistoric age influenced by surrounding nature and mixture of cultures of Vikings from Norway and Picts from Scotland. Over thousands of years since that time, the nature surrounding Orkney is now harnessed for generating renewable energy.

Site 2: Art + Ecology

57°57' N/ 03°19' W

The word “NESS” expressed in the project title means “point” in Old Norse language, which are found in place names across Orkney Islands, as remnants of a period ruled by the Norse settlers. When reading the landscape of Orkney in terms of points of encounter, most of these can be picked up as points of archaeology, energy and land art. All of these are related to phenomenology that dominate in the Orcadian landscape, which include winds, solar, moon, soil, hydrology, and tides and waves. As a centre of the marine renewable technology, Stromness can be seen as a point of energy but also has a potential to develop points of land art having natural phenomena as a common ground. The whole area has stunning backdrops and views in relation to different phenomena of winds, light, water and ecology, however, the area beyond the town centre doesn’t much entice people, and many of the spaces are underutilised. The project aims to revitalise the spaces by responding Orkney’s phenomenal quality of landscape through proposed land arts.

Art Gallery (Existing Land Art Site)

STRATEGY Under the cultural concept using “NESS”, the project addresses the issue by adding new series of points coming out of Stromness tied into the existing point of land art. By combining the points as an art park with different forms of energy and phenomenology, it truly activates the underutilised spaces and serve phenomenal quality of landscape as a new brand of “ArtNESS”.

Framework and Hierarchy FRAMEWORK A framework plan is setting the network of spaces in Stromness and circulation between them. Three points were added as land art sites, which are shown as the primary sites in hierarchy tied together with Pier Arts Centre. These sites were chosen as they were found to have potentials to create different types of land art in terms of land use, landform and site-specific phenomenology. Although the project is dealing with one of the two proposed routes, potentially the primary sites will increase on the other route in the future.

SITE 1: ART + ENERGY + ENGINEERING The first site offers phenomenal experience through art coalesced with marine energy with the latest engineering technology, which responds to both phenomenal quality of the site and technological innovation of the islands. The axis of a main structure is crossing the strips of shingle zones in-between flagstone rocks, interrupting a dominate direction of natural forces. From analysis of tidal cycles, it was designed to play with different tidal ranges, having variety of height levels and kinetic structures, which in turn responding to moon cycle.

SITE 2: ART + ECOLOGY The existing site was originally covered by rough grasses with high fertility soils without having certain land use surrounded by agricultural fields. With this context, the second site shows abstraction of Orcadian landscapes playing with the sets of ecological situations.

Entrance/ Exit

The design uses strong geometry inspired by precedents of archaeological sites and land arts. Through several phases over time, the site will be naturalised generating habitat mosaic with ecological richness as a result of land sculpting, and all these become a part of land art, juxtaposed with the monotonous agricultural fields. Having the mosaic as a backdrop, vertical structures are scattered across the land as artworks. Its shape reflects on the water or make different patterns of shadows on the grounds. They oscillate by different patterns of winds and create ripples on the water. The oscillation generates energy to serve lightings during itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dark.

Following annual sunpath calculated from its latitude, the small galleries were laid out aligned to each direction of sunrise/ sunset with the large grass-covered mound as its centre. The galleries are either garden, pond, earth mound, or greenhouse, and each of them features its seasonal interest responding to the alignments. Having diversity between the galleries, the whole area will be ecologically rich without extensive management as these are maintained inside the circular spaces. The site also serves during night times being illuminated by solar energy.

Working Processes/ Model-Making

THINKING THROUGH MAKING MODELS In the studio of the final project, we were encouraged to make models/ devices as a process of thinking. Three-dimentional objecs allowed me to understand scales and structures more clearly in tandem with various graphics I produced. To express my ideas/ propositions, I created variety of objects from abstructive devices to scaled models using different materials.

Concept and Strategy

Sense of Fusion Catalysing Synergic Landscape Harnessing Energy Stromness, Orkney Islands, Scotland Large-scale Strategic Planning 2nd-year Masters Design Studio | Fall 2018 Landscapes of Orkney Islands give feeling of being embraced by robust energy of the ocean that had been influencing on the poetic history and culture of Orkney in conjunction with diverse wildlife. Today this dynamic energy of the ocean is being utilised for generating renewable energy. While technically and economically benefiting to Orkney Islands, the growing renewable energy development can have impacts on ecology and landscape of the islands. Accordingly the energy infrastructure need to be installed to provide social-ecological benefits, which can mitigate the impacts while technically and economically profiting the islands. The project is dealing with the issue by proposing strategy to create multiple social benefits to Orkney. It was driven through theoretical approach regarding infrastructure and logical processes by making scenarios. Finally, it proposes different typologies, which show iproposed interventions that catalyse synergies.

Flow Anchoring Integration

STRATEGY Mesh and matrix are metaphars of two different types of infrastructure that express technical/ utilitalian infrastructure and ecological/ environmental infrastructure respectively. Each consists of five conceptual elements. The strategy is aiming for integrating sociotechnical mesh and socioecological matrix taking the concepts of infrastructure, which will result in generating synergy of landscape that can be created by interactions of various factors. To apply the conceptions for the case of Orkney, two scenarios that implicate the mesh and the matrix were simulated.

Mediator of Nature Flux Enhance Ecology and Experiential Qualities through Natural Farming Whitesands Quarry, Dunbar, Scotland Post-industrial Landscape Design 1st-year Masters Design Studio | Fall 2018 Agriculture is one of the strong identities in Dunbar, which has developed with the help of row material of limestone quarried at the site. As the site is directing to nature conservation, the identity of agriculture is installed in the site in a form of "Natural farming", which intermediate between habitats and recreational sites. In the long run, it is expected to function as a driving force for the nature conservation and make people be aware of the importance of the site through recreational, experiencial and productive attractions. 1.

Landscape Character Assessment

Catchment Woodland for Flood Mitigation

LANDSCAPE CHARACTER TYPES (Created by group work)

St Mary&s Loch, Scottish Borders, Scotland Landscape Character Assessment and Woodland Design 1st-year Masters Design Studio | Fall 2017

Setting the River Tweed catchment as subject area, this studio project aimed to research and analyse large-scale landscapes and establish a strategy for a development e.g. forestry development, renewable energy and flood management, which were chosen by individuals preferences. Assessments of landscape characters and feasibility for developments in strategic scale were implemented by group work in the initial phases, while the final phase was carried out by individuals for designing in site scale.

Selected LCU (Landscape Character Unit)

This individual project is designing catchment woodland on the hills beside St. Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Loch for flood mitigation alongside ecological, recreational and visual consideration.

Feasibility Assessment DEVELOPMENT OPTIONS STRATEGY FOR THE SELECTED OPTION

OPTION 1 Planting along the existing recreational route and tributaries (Area: 120 ha) IMPACT POSITIVE OBJECTIVE 1 Reducing water run-off in urban settlements and delaying water flow OBJECTIVE 2 Enriching wildlife habitat providing species with shelters and places for foraging/breeding

OBJECTIVE 3 Enhancing landscape value

OBJECTIVE 4 Enhancing recreational function

NEGATIVE

DESCRIPTION

As it covers watercourses that flow into the loch, it can slow the water flow.

Enrich riparian habitat and connect woodlands and riparian although the busyness of tourists may disturb some species.

–

View from the St. Mary's Loch could be improved by naturalised new woodland.

It could improve existing recreational route making it mysterious and adventurous atmosphere.

OPTION 2 Planting on the high elevation zones that has high opportunity of water run-off reduction (Area: 150 ha) IMPACT POSITIVE

NEGATIVE

–

DESCRIPTION

OPTION 3 Planting wide area of the east hillside covering the tributary of the Yarrow Water (Area: 200 ha) IMPACT POSITIVE

NEGATIVE

DESCRIPTION

It could reduce water run-off drastically although it doen't include watercourses.

Reduce water run-off and slow down the tributary that merges into Yarrow Water.

Keeping distance from roads, the habitat will not be disturbed by humans and connect existing woodland patches in the shortest way.

Wide connection of woodlands and riparian habitat could contribute to improve biodiversity.

–

As the area is not very visible from the places that are accessible to people, it doesn't effect on landscape value.

–

Hidden behind the hills and the existing woodlands, it is only visible from car traffic road on the oppsite side of the lochs hence will not change landscape value.

–

Since it is not easy to access and visible from where populated by people, it will not provide recreational function.

–

Due to the distance from recreational points, it will not offer improvements of recreational facilities.

After the impact assessment, option 1 was considered as the most preferable development option; the accumulative positive impact was higher and the negative impact was lower than the other two options. The plan above shows detailed analysis for the option 1 to establish a strategy to create woodland.

Option 3: Bird view BEFORE the mixed woodland is established

ENHANCING LANDSCAPE VALUE The view point was set at the lakeside between two lochs since many of the tourists visit this point. As the typical characteristic of the Upland Coniferous Woodland, the hills in middle and left were originally exposed with brownish texture, which reduces its landscape value. The proposed mixed woodlands could improve the scenery of the mountains with light-green and soft textures covering the hills. It also enhances recreational function around the lochs. View to the mountains covered by mixed woodland

ECOLOGICAL LINKAGE

FLOOD MITIGATION MECHANISM Trees can reduce the amount of surface water by their evapotranspiration. In general, evergreen conifers tend to use greater amount of water than broadleaves because their interception losses are kept high throughout a year. However, as this project considers ecological aspects as well as the flood mitigation, creation of mixed woodland is more rational rather than just planting evergreen species. The water use by trees and large woody debris can slow the flow of water in the stream, which can mitigate the flood risks in the downstreams. Slow water flow Evapotranspiration

Main tree species suitable for the site condition were selected to form catchment woodlands. Mixed woodland of evergreen conifers and deciduous broadleaved trees can maximise the possible benefits particularly in terms of flood management and wildlife diversity. All the species are native to UK or Europe, providing habitats for broad range of flora and fauna. Different combinations of these species form various types of woodland.

The most predominant species in this type is scots pine. Having high canopy structures, it dominates the upper canopy. Pockets of silver birch, rowan and bird cherry form diverse canopy structures. Dominant Species: Being adjacent to the existing sitka spruces, this type of woodland • Scots pine Pinus sylvestris • Silver birch Betula pendula naturalises woodland borders. Recreational trails were designed in the woodland, which provide visitors with magnificent landscape of • Rowan Sorbus aucuparia the forest. It also play a significant role in ecosystem as scots pines • Bird cherry Prunus padus have a broad range of ecological connectivities with fungi, insects, birds and mammals.

It reaches 30 meters height and dominates upper canopy. Rowans and hazels create multi-layered canopy structures under birch trees. Open woodlands were created at some spots in the birchwoods, in which Juniper was planted as it thrives in open areas. The graceful apperance and the mythtical atomosphere of the birchwoods can enhance both landscape and recreational value.

Dominant Species: • Ash Fraxinus excelsior • Alder Alnus glutinosa • Bird cherry Prunus padus • Eared willow Salix aurita

Ash and alder are the most typical species seen along watercourses, which enrich the riparian habitat. Assumed that a stream in the subject area is wider than 2 m, riparian buffer whose width is 20 m was created on either side of the watercourse. The tree canopies give partial shade to the stream, which encourages some plant species to grow in unshaded parts while reducing or eliminating plants in shaded parts. The partial shade also keeps the water temperature suitable for aquatic species to live in.
