SITE
Logging
in 1970s, Xi'an city was a city which was surrounded by large area of forest. The percentage of forest cover was up to a rather high level. And the habitats for birds were aggreeable.
With the process of urbanization, many habitats were substituted by buildings and business land. Meanwhile, the area of natural river reduced.
Because of the motivation of benefits and the need of economy, more people worked on the longging which posed a direct threat to forests and some other natural land.
The site is located at the junction of Wei river and Ba river.
With the development of heavy industr y, many factories which discharges sewage to river nearby were established.

Save rare birds in ecological ways and meanwhile provide a place to amuse people and learn scientific knowledge propagation. Time: 2016 Winter-2017 Spring Location: Chanba Wetland Park, Xi'an City, China Individual Work Role: Wireframe, User interface, 3D modeling, research, data analysis, diagram
This project tends to save a certain kind of rare bird named Eurasian Spoonbill by improving the local environment. With ecological method, many birds will be rescued. In this way, the abundance of birds will provide a good opportunity for citizens around the location to learn about birds. To draw close the relationship between human beings and nature by protecting rare birds. Bird migration passes Chanba wetland park which is an important transfer station of migration route located between the Wei river and Ba river in Xi'an City. On the way of migration, they are exposed with many threats, such as being caught by carnivore, being trapped in the rain, lacking of food and so on. By the way, we create a place which includes amusement park, bird museum, botany garden, boating project and souvenir shop for people to chill.
Have a rest near water when flying every 200-
Temperature is also very moderate for birds to choose as their habitat to live through the winter.

Rainfall in this city is plentiful, which provide a good condiion for birds to survive and reproduce here.
Birds fly past Shanxi province and Shaanxi province where there is abundant water resource. But volumn of water has reduced and when birds arrive in Xi'an city, the water is polluted seriously and there is not enough clean water for those birds.
Before the urbanization, the water volume and water quality in this city is rather abundant and clean. However, with the prgress of the urbanization, the volume of water reduced and meanwhile, it was polluted seriously. This design takes the climate of xi'an city as an opportunity of seperating the human being and birds during the period of migration. Based on the analysis of current threats over bird habitat,this design proposes several types of habitats. A strategic plan of revitalizing river environment for tourism oboriginal tribes is also integrated into the Restoration plan of bird habtat between Wei river and Ba river.-

I am a teacher working in a primary school. As a teacher, sometimes I will organize the whole class to join in some outside activities, such as leading them to the wild to know something about birds or plants. What I want to give my students is to make them contact with nature. I think this will stimulate their imagination and enable them to discover the magic of nature. Meanwhile, it is also a good approach for teachers to apply what we impart in class to the real life. If there is a park near the school, I believe it will be popular with all students and teachers because it is a natural classroom and a playground for us.

I am very curious about animals. If our teacher takes us to see some rare birds in the park, we will be very happy. This is because we usually get much information about cute birds' biological habits from teachers in class but we never see they how they look like in reality. Watching real birds and interacting with real birds will deepen our comprehension of knowledge in the textbool. What's more, I heard that there are many entertainments and equipments in the park which will connect with bird watching. After class, I can play with my friends there.

Quantity of birds' kinds reduction and increase in
At my spare of time, I like watching birds in wetland park. But because some factors, the amounts and types of birds decreased in recent years. If there are some techniques and methods solving this problem, I feel very comforted. In this way, I can take my camera to take some pictures again. Moreover, on the weekend, I am willing to take my 5-year-old son to the park to enjoy some scenery. Playing in the pleasure ground and seeing some real birds become possible, which promote the relationship between me and my son. I think it is necessary to improve the environment and redesign the park.
O2 defffciency
greenery reduction
uranization
·Because of farmland, the natural land reduced. And the exhaust emitted from the factory polluted the river and air which lead to fish death. In this circumstance, birds has no sufficient and healthy food resources. Logging is also a serious problem. When the amount of trees decreased, there are no enough trees absorbing greenhouse gas and other poisonous gas from air, which means that our air will be polluted. Meanwhile, birds will lack habitat to reproduce and survive. As for urbanization, many real estate need to expand their land to make profits, so they need to occupy natural land to build skyscrapers. Combining all factors mentioned above, ecosystem and economy of Chanba wetland park will be negatively influenced.
Solution birds drink ecological floating island
waste gas
Persona
Different birds choose different habitats, mainly reflected in the height, thus forming a vertical plant community level, and creating a good habitat for planting different tree species at different heights. The growth height of white Spoonbill is 51 cm.
Because birds belong to thermostatic animals and are insensitive to the changes of environmental temperature, the influence of temperature on the changes of birds is mainly realized by food. The decrease of temperature not only makes the food itself stop moving, but also restricts the foraging activities of birds.

The growth environment of Spoonbill is reed swamp and wetland, as well as the high trees near the water, which are wading birds. Therefore, in the selection of tree species, water-facing or large trees are selected for planting.
The park is located in the junction of two rivers, which is convenient for people to visit and the water resource is also juctionample whcih is beneficial for birds to inhabit. The transportation is also accesible to most people. All of these provide a good opportunity for birds to inhabit and for poeple to visit.

agricultural landscape
· As for industrialization, we intend to improve the condition in physical way. Planting more native and good at absorbing toxic tree species helps to reduce the amount of poisonous gas in air. Selecting different height of trees to create vertical community can provide various environment of habitat for birds without disturbing. In the meantime, their food resources will increase as well. Some hydrophyte is beneficial for water to purify. Roots of plants on ecological floating island can absorb harmful particles and purify water quality. Under this condition, birds will have clean water to drink and healthy food to eat. · In terms of landscape architecture, we design some interesting interaction installations for users to watching birds and interacting with birds without distubing them. People can take a trip to this park to play in the pleasure ground. · In this way, native economy will be improved and local economy will be stimulated.

SWOT ANALYSIS
INDUSTRY ANALYSIS This is a story about Amy. Meanwhile, this is also a story of thousands of families in China. Amy escaped from her hometown, Shenyang which is a relatively backward city. She wanted to pursue her own dream in a large city which could provide an international platform for her to grow. However, in this way, she was not able to take care of her parents who were very old and needed people to accompany and care for. Those old people were dropped out by the times and by the young. They were anxious, under high pressure and, in the meantime, lonely.

In ordet to make the pain point itself more tstereoscopic and close to the user in the problem definition stage, we conduct a longitudinal analysis by collecting users' comments and opinions. Through the comments of customers on different social platforms and brand official websites, we found that the most concerned part of customers is mainly on the teachers themselves and bad product user experience. From the above figure, it can be concluded that the largest number of household evaluations are used to measure the quality of APP itself and teachers. The main reason for the loss of customers in the existing service system is concertrated on the three aspects of interaction design and poor class experience.

I need to go to school on weekday and if I am ill, it's the most possible choice that I had to see a doctor on the weekend which is most people's choice. So I have to wait in line for several hours. What's more, I live in a backward city where there lacks advanced and excellent doctors. So I have to travel a long distance and waiting for several hours to see a doctor, which takes much time and money. So I hope there is something that can help me to see a doctor with high effectively.

" Seeing a doctor is really timeconsuming and I am always busy with work. Sometimes I felt uncomfortable and needed immediate solution, but my work would hold me back. Work occupies most of my time and I had little time to allocate in waiting in line for several hours. What's more, sometimes I was not seriously ill, but I had to wait for a long time and the doctor told me after diagnosis that I just needed to take a sound sleep because I just had too much pressure. What I hope is that I can arrange my time reasonably when I am free. And meanwhile, I can choose the most suitable doctor according to my conditions and requirements.
" My working time overlaps with hospital's working time and I have to see a doctor on the weekend when there are many people waiting there outside the doctor's office. I cherish time very much so I don't want to spend time in meaningless things such as waiting. What's more, I'm not clear about most doctors' education and experience background and in this way, it is ahrd to appoint a most suitable doctor according to my conditions. "

Then, there will be two conditions. The first condition is that online doctor said to Lily it is not so serious. So Lily doesn't have to go to hospital in person. And doctor will prescribe a receipt according to the patient's condition. Lili can buy medicine in the online pharmacy according to the receipt.

Story line about Amy and her parents Graduate
This is a story about Amy. Meanwhile, this is also a story of thousands of families in China. Amy escaped from her hometown, Shenyang which is a relatively backward city. She wanted to pursue her own dream in a large city which could provide an international platform for her to grow. However, in this way, she was not able to take care of her parents who were very old and needed people to accompany and care for. Those old people were dropped out by the times and by the young. They were anxious, under high pressure and, in the meantime, lonely.
Data analysis
Before graduation, children lived with their parents. When they graduated from the university, they needed to reconsider their future career.
Leave Shenyang Because of backward condition of their hometown and urbanization of metropolis, Amy decided to go to large city to pursue their dream. Her parents also

Combine circle with Fibonaccina curve which is said to be the most perfect curve in the world. The whole form of the architecture originated from the inspiration of Fibonaccina curve. The elevation and detailed design comes from Chinese circle culture and add some contemporary
Circle is the most popular form among Chinese. In Chinese ancient culture, there were lots of art forms involving circle, such as paper-cut, windows, round silk fan, moon cave and so on. Because the shape of circle represents a beautiful meaning of reunion and perfection, which is most Chinese expect, especially the old in China. So I take the shape of circle as the whole form of this architecture to express best wishes for the old. Meanwhile, I also apply cirlcle element in facade design
This architecture is located in Shenhe District in Shenyang. Its location is beneficial with hospital and mall. What's more, its vegetation covery is wide and water resource is sufficient, which determines it is an optimal place for elderly center. The land is flat, so it is easy for them to access. Net work is flourishing, which means the old can get to the place tha tthey want easily. Paper-Cutting
