RESIDENTIAL LANDSCAPE DESIGN
A CADEMIC WO R K COLUMBUS, OHIO
2018 FALL
The site right now is a bare turf with some cricket fields. Everytime during heavy rain events neiborhood streets become muddy and those excessive rainwater flush the site down to the Olentangy River. The goal of this project is to help purify those overflow water from neiborhood. A series of geographic strateies start from it. This project combine highend residential with recreational park together.In the recreational park which is the eroded turf site would be the funtional part for the purify process. The nearby relatively high ground without mandatory flood insurance would be the place where residential tower and commerical plaza located.

Fill the sharp slope to create a ladder buffer. Channel the gray water. Make use of the vegetation to purify water. Dig ponds to retain water in the site Elevated tower/walkway for appreciating river view.
DESIGN STRATEGY
Existing riverfront trees are very high and dense which would block the view of first 3 floors.
The first three floors would be the parking lots for residents and visitors which all of residential units would have a good view. The commerical units would toward the plaza and recreational park.

P recipitatio n Analysis in 2014
T he site is lying in the continental monsoon climate area of temperate zone, Hangzhou has distinctive seasons change , 60% of the rain events and precipitation are mainly happen in July and August, which can easily causing seepage or even triggering ooding.
n atrue c rowd b uildings
S ITE ANALYSIS
T he site is on an untapped rooftop of the campus building which the weak bearing capacity can limit the design. But without high building around the site have extensive scene that can be appreciate.
M ASTER PLAN
T he applicable area of the roof is 3520m2 with two outputs. The roof placed by some solar panels, external lattices of air conditioner ventilations, light wells, water tanks and some bared pipes.
T here is also an area of about 435m2 taller than regular roof. The whole roof surface is well-preserved but do not have any green facilities or rainwater collecting infrustructures.

Transitional Zone
The connection between two teaching buildings, we set vegetables belts on two sides to create a transitional zone between the bold roof and the roof farm. It might also be the start of second phase of the roof farm.
Vertical Herbal Garden
This garden intends to make the best use of vertical spaceand and also make it producitive. The vertical cultivation technology can be applied to plant hydroponic vegetables.

Constructed wetlands could function to remove nitrogen from drainage water in many lab-scale tests. A provoking fact is that the function of decomposing nitrogen 90% were done by microorganisms and only 10% were uptake by vegetation. So I want to boost the e enicy of bacterial processes.

Unfortunately the soil temperature shows that almost half of year those bacteria are inactive. So came up a way to warm up the wetland is that build a greenhouse on the wet land so bacteria can work inside even during winter and early spring.

Topography
The site contained a foothill and a river on the west side, to the south and the east were roadwaysand to the north were hills and small lakes. The plan area gathered basins, skes and foothills, rich in textured landscapes.
Existing Plant
The site was surrounded by a varity of vegetations with aboundant natureal resources. The project aimed to retain the original plant community while building office space on the basis of keeping the original landscape texture.
Tea Plants
Design Concept
The project named O2 mode means office to outdoor. The project intends to induce people from stuffy indoor to outdoor space, walking out during the work break to breath fresh oxygen, or just hanging out in tea garden, read a book under the pine forest or drink tea and chat with colleagues in the bamboo forest.

The AA-8 can also follow customized path to create speci c pattern on the ground. The direction of AA-8 move mostly perpendicular to the wind direction aiming to diminish impact and to capture wind energy. Holes made by AA-8 can alleviate soil compaction and also allow air and water to penetrate continuely for next few days.
