Personal Statement I think the service object of landscape is not only people, but also the environment. Good design can make the environment grow spontaneously and sustainably in a positive direction. Of course, we can't ignore people's experience. Communication, including between people, between people and the environment, is carried out in the design site, so the design site plays a very important role in connecting, it can even affect people's behavior. The charm of landscape is to stimulate the potential use of the site, so that the site and people, the environment more integrated get along.

01 Breathing Light Campus Dormitory Landscape Design Location:Chongqing,China Size:3.4ha Type:Academic Individual Work Project Year:04/2013


This project discusses the relationship between the site and users. It is hoped that through the change of landscape, the use limitation of the site will be broken, the vitality of the site will be activated, the utilization rate of the site will be improved, and more communication will be generated between people. Through the special design, the landscape and users have a connection, so that people become a part of the landscape. This can make people have a kind of belonging psychology, so they are more willing to go outdoors. During the investigation, it was found that due to the rainy and overcast climate in Chongqing and the lack of light on the site, the frequency of students' activities outside was low; the terrain of the site was high around and low in the middle, resulting in the lack of connectivity of all parts of the site. In view of these problems, we pay special attention to the lighting design, introduce the special technology material of water lighting, strengthen the site lighting, add the pedestrian bridge to enhance the site accessibility, etc. It is hoped that through the change of the site landscape, the frequency and time of students' outdoor activities will be increased, and more students will go out of their dormitories to study, walk and exercise outdoors, so as to increase the opportunities of communication between students.

The venue is located in the center of the library, dining room and playground, close to the school entrance and exit. It is an important place for students' activities and a necessary place for daily transportation. At the same time, the dormitory also needs to meet the students' daily leisure function, to reduce the pressure for heavy study.

Status and Characteristics

Status Quo of the Entrance

Internal Greening

The introduction of the current gate is convenient and the entrance features are obvious. But it lacks attraction and beauty.

The road next to the building is straight and accessible, but there is no space for staying.

The interior is rich in greenery and has a sense of hierarchy, but it is not suitable for the original humid areas because of the blinding of sight.

Annual Weather Statistics in Chongqing

The terrain of the site is high around here and low in the middle, with a maximum height difference of 9 meters.

The number of rainy days in Chongqing accounts for 34% of the whole year, and the number of cloudy and foggy days is more than half. It can be seen that the weather in Chongqing is rainy all the year round and lacks light.

City and regions with the most rainfall in China Chongqing ranks the 10th among the top 15 cities in terms of rainfall, which is a city with more rainfall.

The bridge starts from the top of the mountain to solve the traffic problem in the concave land.

Due to the lack of light on the site, the light from the bridge bottom, road teeth and benches is used to enhance the light.

In order to facilitate travel,the bifurcation part of the expanded bridge plays a role of rain shelter.

DESIGN PROCESS Internal Traffic Transformation Process

According to the results of site survey, determine the gathering points of people fIow, connect these four points, and get the most convenient access.

According to the characteristics of the place and terrain that people have to pass through, three landscape nodes are determined.

Connecting the three landscape nodes and combining the road which is shown in the figure we can get the traffic flow line as shown.

In order to make it more aesthetic and connectivity, the above road shape is obtained by deformation.

Ddformation Process of Pedestrian Bridge

The two highest and lowest points in the site are the areas where bridges need to be connected. We connect them with the most direct lines first.

In order to meet the accessibility, an outlet is added, which is extruded and deformed.

According to the basic shape of the above figure, combined with the road linearity, the bridge is deformed. The bifurcated part is located in the East and West Center of the site, which makes the site structure look balanced without losing the center of gravity.

The bridge has the characteristics of combination of thickness and f i n e n e s s, o rg a n i c s h a p e, a n d expansion of bifurcation point, which makes it both accessible and rain proof.

02 Blending in Urban Design

Location:Chongqing,China Size:21.26ha Instructor:Xirui Zhang Type:Group Work (Role in the project:Idea of the site plan and Graph Representation) Project Year:10/2019


People's attachment to the city is a growing process, and the development of the city is also a process of constantly meeting the needs of citizens. This process is full of harmonious and disharmonious factors. To promote the harmony between people and cities is to achieve the coordination of urban planning, construction and management with urban population, urban scale, urban function, urban economic and social development through the organic integration of various activities, resources and environment within the city. The purpose of this project is to explore the relationship between people and urban development, and strive to make people's needs and urban. The site is a small town to be developed, and the original industry is mainly agriculture. As the town is located between the main urban areas in the area, it undertakes important transitional responsibilities. The site is rich in landscape resources. We hope to build a vibrant town with unique natural resources and important geographical location.Moreover, the landscape paintings of local painters are noted to vividly depict the scene of landscape blending in the venue. Considering the rich landscape resources of the venue, they are very consistent with the ideal realm pursued by traditional Chinese landscape paintings ("view, travel, travel and residence"), so they are integrated into the planning and design of the venue.

Mr. Wang xueya, pen name of Yushan, the author of the above painting, was born in Kaixian County, Sichuan Province (the site of the project). He is a famous painter. He was Secretary General of Beijing Academy of painting and director of Beijing Chinese Painting Research Association. The rational realm created by traditional Chinese painting can be summarized in four aspects: "visible, ambulatory,sight-seeing and habitable". From Mr. Wang's paintings, we can feel the charm of the integration of mountains and rivers, and the sense of tranquility emanating from the landscape. It also fully expresses the ideal state of "view, walk, tour and residence". It creates a quiet and vivid life. In the following urban design, these four aspects are put into the design concept to create a real landscape realm.

Changsha Group (Site)

The site is located in Changsha Group, Kaizhou District, Chongqing City, and the southeast is the central urban area of Kaizhou district. As it is located between two long mountains, the development intensity of the surrounding area is relatively low, which is the new urban area to be developed in the next step.

STATUS PHOTOS The landscape around the water body is poor,and plants grow naturally. There is no planning, and the coastline forms a closed space, blocking the interaction between people and water.

There are many disorderly building roofs near the mountain, which affect the visual effect.

The orange forest in the site grows at will and does not form an industry or system.

At present, the urban industry is located in farmland, and some industrial land will be built in the later stage. It is hoped to introduce factories and balance the single phenomenon of urban industry.

Orange is a local characteristic agricultural product, and orange forest accounts for 14.6% of the total area of the base. But at present, there is no low utilization rate and no characteristic industry.

Farmland and green land account for 25% of the total area of the base. From the perspective of the map, green land is very scattered and unsystematic.

In order to build a city's characteristic industry, it is considered to combine the waterfront tourism and health care center with orange forest

If we design the green site according to the original location of farmland and green space, it will make the site very chaotic. Therefore, the construction of green level is divided into three parts: Mountain Park, waterfront green space and urban green space.

The Puli river runs through the east-west direction of the site, with insufficient utilization, uniform shape, uniform width and lack of emphasis.

Business Center Mountain Top

Superimposing the original mountains and roads will result in many ravines and valleys, and the site will be very fragmented. Therefore, the general shape of the mountain should be preserved and slightly integrated so that the road and the mountain can follow the trend, which is conducive to the functional layout of the site.

Adjust the width of Puli River, expand two water surfaces, one of which is combined with the central business to form an important axis of the site. So that the site has primary and secondary, forming a unique landscape order.

Before the planning, the green space is disorderly and not systematic, and the utilization rate is poor. Therefore, the site landscape is divided into three types in the planning: waterfront landscape, mountain park landscape and urban green landscape. In addition, we use interwoven form of the site and water system, extract the basic design graphics, and then combine different types of landscape to form their own characteristics, so as to develop a complete landscape system.

03 Vibranting Again Traditional Block Design Location:Chongqing,China Size:2.3ha Type:Individual Work Project Year:04/2017


The old city block always carries memory of the city, when the city continues to develop, the old block still grows as before. So the conf lict arises. Eighteen Ladders are a street on Yuzhong Peninsula of Chongqing, symbolizing the real mountain city of old Chongqing. Although it cannot also escape the urban construction and unknown its fate, we are still unable to ignore it. If you want to appreciate the real mountain city and old Chongqing, Eighteen Ladders are the best textbooks. Eighteen Ladders shows development of Chongqing, but now it is on depression. Because the streets are narrow and there are no sites to stay at, local residents lack space to stay for communication and interaction. In order to revitalize old neighborhood and make local residents' lives more convenient, a semi-open corridor space is designed for the whole street, with many sites in the middle for people to rest and play. At last, it achieves purpose of revitalizing the neighborhood.

There are three state-level cultural relics protection units a municipal level cultural relics protection units in this Distri strong cultural atmosphere.

The Eighteen Ladders is located in the southwest of Yuzhong Peninsula, Chongqing, connecting the important Jiefangbei business district and the South Riverside residential area.

HISTORICAL EVOLUTION

Ming Dynasty Eighteen ladders were built in the Ming Dynasty. It is said that there is a well in the area. The residents nearby all eat the water in the well. The well is just eighteen steps away from the residents' residence. Therefore, people call it "Eighteen ladders".

1940 In June 1941, the Japanese bombed Chongqing. As the number of people who took refuge in the eighteen ladder air raid shelter exceeded the capacity, 2500 people died of suffocation, resulting in a "bigger tragedy" that shocked China and foreign countries.

Old Site of Juxingcheng Bank

The houses in Eighteen Ladders have a special style and are built on the mountain. The height difference of each platform is between 1-3 meters, forming a special platform space.

and nine ict, with a Old Drum Tower in Southern Song Dynasty

2000 There are a large number of ordinary people living around Eighteen Ladders, which is the real portrayal of the life of the people in Chongqing, and gradually becomes the symbol of the old urban area of the mountain city.

2016 In 2016, eighteen ladders became the scene of the movie "passing by from all over the world". Due to its special topography and rich local customs, it has become a hot tourist attraction, receiving more than 20 million tourists every year.


ORIGIN OF DESIGN

Residents will pass through the street after purchasing.Rainy days are especially inconvenient because there is often no spare hand to hold an umbrella.

The semi open ceiling is designed in the street, which is convenient to pass when it rains. Such a design brings great convenience to the residents.

Chongqing is very hot in summer. The ceiling has shading function at the same time. The semi open design also ensures the street ventilation.

Nearby residents, especially children, have no playground and there is no rest area. So it is very difficult for the old to climb the whole stairs continuously.

Choose the platform in the Eighteen Ladders to design playable facilities for children, and adults can directly see children in the windows of their homes, without the need to accompany them all the way to ensure safety.

The platform also has a rest area to provide a place to rest.

The Eighteen Ladders only have the function of passing through. There are many residents nearby, and there is no space for communication.

The platform is equipped with a space for rest and communication. When you are alone, you can read and rest here.

It can also be a meeting space to promote people's communication and make the neighborhood more harmonious.

DETAILS OF SITE Entrance Platform This site is located at the starting position of the whole street, and the highest point is provided with a lookout platform, which can overlook the scenery of the whole street. People walk down the stairs to the eighteen stairs, and they can see the swing set by the street. This can increase the street recreation space, let more residents out of the door, and improve the utilization rate of public space, so that the old block is full of vitality.

Gather Space There is a double-layer space, the first is mainly used for rest, and the second is a overlooking platform. The elderly in the block need to rest when climbing stairs, so a rest platform is set in the middle of the street, which also provides outdoor communication space for residents. The observation platform on the second floor is built in combination with the first f loor residence nearby, which increases double recreational space, and can widen the vision in the narrow street and see the panoramic view of the street.

04 Living Again Landscape Ecological Restoration Design of Mining Area Location:Yulin,Shanxi,China Size:8.1ha Type:Individual Work Project Year:11/2019


Human survival depends on natural environments, nature offers people all kinds of resources. However, with the popularization of urbanization and industrialization, more and more unreasonable behaviors in urban ecological construction have destroyed the original ecosystem of nature. Humans need fuel and power and choose to get them from nature, but they greatly destroy the natural ecological environments in the process, which make the relationship between humans and nature become increasingly tense. The site of this project was originally a mining area, which began to be used in 2000 and has been abandoned until 2010. Because the soil, water and air are polluted during this decade, we intend to design landscape to restore the site ecological and renew the site to be health, as well as provide the surrounding residents with an educational, recreational and ornamental park.


HISTORICAL REVIEW With the development of industrialization, human beings rely on more and more mineral resources. The demand for mineral resources is also increasing gradually, but the exploitation of mineral resources buried underground is difficult to a certain extent, and also causes great damage to the environment. Nowadays, there are a lot of abandoned mines. Because the soil of the site is polluted and unsuitable for crop growth, the utilization of most areas is limited and it is difficult to develop again.

During the Warring States period, people used coal as iron smelting fuel and coal as fuel to enter people's lives. the Warring States Period During the first industrial revolution, coal powered steam engines. This greatly improves the utilization rate of coal.

Development of mineral resources

the First Industrial Revolution

With the deepening of the industrial revolution, the use of mineral resources is more and more frequent, and the mining of mineral resources has caused great pressure on the environment. the Second Industrial Revolution

After high-temperature spontaneous combustion, the coal cinder in the open air releases toxic gases such as SO2 and CO, forming air pollution; the sulfur dioxide in the air forms acid rain, polluting the soil, and then the toxic substances flow into the water body, forming water and soil pollution.

In the meantime, efforts should be made to repair the environment. In the design, we began to pay attention to the restoration of ecological plants to the environment, and combined with industrial aesthetics.

The Rise of Post Industrial Landscape

1970s

The landscape transformation of the old industrial zone began to integrate with the nature and the city, and expanded from developed countries to developing countries. The design ideas and design methods are becoming more and more mature. 20th century

The site is located in the center of a small town in Yulin City, Shanxi Province, China. However, due to the production of coal mines before, the soil in this site is polluted and now abandoned.

ORIGIN OF DESIGN

The site belongs to the north of China, so it is difficult to see the terrace landscape in the south. The terrace landscape in South China is rich in crops and healthy in soil. It is hoped that the barren environment of the site will become full of vitality after transformation. Therefore, we will separate the terraces, and then combine the height difference terrain of the site to form the basic form of broken line.

Plant Stratification Analysis

Five entrances and exits shall be determined by the surrounding environment of the site.

Connect the entrances and exits, consider to keep the original path, and get the initial road form meeting the accessibility.

After getting the basic trend of the road, we will deform the road and pull out the broken line form from the terrace.

In the design, we fully consider the characteristics of the site, which is high in the east and low in the west. The footpath conforms to the terrain and forms a scattered form.

Traffic Analysis Trees: mainly local evergreen trees, dotted with deciduous trees with larger crown Shrub: mainly for soil restoration, try to select native tree species Ground cover: awn plants with strong resistance are often used

Secondary road: footpath between dense plants Main road: both chronic traffic and fire fighting functions

Pit steps: go down to the underground to observe the pit, and the part passing through is cave


DESIGN DETAILS Activity Space

Stone Array: In the green part of the central square, the frame structure is designed. Considering the linearity of the site road and the range of people's sight, the frame space with different angles is designed in combination with plants.
