Different Mechanism Toward Wildfire

Sponge Street

Resilient Landscape Planning

Location: 8th Rd, Bangalore, India

Duration: Nov. 2022 - Jan.2023

Type: Individual Work

This project aims to upgrade the capacity of 8th Rd in Whitefield, Bangalore, India towards the pressing contemporary issue of water. Because of the heavy rain in mainly September, together with its current poor water management system, it suffers every year from flash flooding with resulting challenges and damage to infrastructure and transpot systems. In addition, there're a lot of grey spaces that I tend to make full use of to build a resilient street and show its site spirit.

Blue-green infrustracture is arranged along the entire street to improve the water quality and recreational value of this urban district so as to transform the environment and public space into landscape and wetland through eco approaches and sustainable water systems such as micro-bioretention area, rain garden strip and bio swale which will mitigate damage to the built environment, as well as the resulting impact on inhabitants, whilst benifitting the ecosystem, developing wetkand habitats and improving green space for the community.
