01 REGREENING OF ANJIALING DUMP SITE
Repairing waste dump of open-pit coal mine with gleditsia sinensis.
Year:2019
Location:Shuozhou City, Shanxi Province, China
Type:Landscape Design & Ecological Restoration Design
Instructor:Zhang Jianjun ,Bai Zhongke
Role:Collaborative Work with 1Member.Responsible for the whole process of preliminary research, design and drawing.
Since surface soil needs to be stripped and stored outside the mining area in open-pit mining, the stripped surface soil forms a dumping area. The dump occupies land and damages the ecology. They are scars on the earth that need to be repaired.
This design attempts to regreen the dump site with Gleditsia sinensis, a native tree that is durable and soil-improving. The strategy of shaping the landform, planting Gleditsia sinensis, and introducing industries is expected to transform the dump into a sustainable garden with both landscape and multiple industries.

02 VILLAGE WATER SYSTEM
Let wanton floods be stored, infiltrated, and utilized through the village water system.
Year:2020-2022
Location:Nanheng Village, Guangdong Province, China
Type:Engineering Design & Landscape Design
Instructor:Wang Jinman
Role:Individual Work
Global rainstorm surge frequency is increasing due to rising sea levels. Nanheng Village in Nansha District is one of the villages in China that suffers most frequently from rainstorm surge flooding.
In this project, I build a village water system through water conservancy facilities: reservoirs, ditches, and dams and ecological measures: revetments, filter strips, and river form. When it rains in the village, the flood velocity and flow are reduced, and rainwater can be stored and infiltrated. When it is not rainy, the rainwater stored on rainy days can be utilized.
Rising sea levels in Nansha have caused severe flooding.
Losses in 2020
The Flooded Village: Nanheng
During the rainstorm surge, three primary spaces in the village (river, resident area, farmland&unused land) are threatened.
3 Types of Disaster Areas
Sections of the Areas
Master Plan
The design area is divided into 4 zones according to the original land use type combined with road system.
Zone1: Remove illegal construction and restore the river.
Zone2: build reservoirs and settle the residents.
Zone3: Retrofitting the ditch system.
Zone4: Build supporting rainwater facilities.
The spatial functions of the 4 areas are interrelated. During the rainy season, it becomes an effective rainwater system to relieve flooding. During the nonrainy season, it is responsible for the production, life and ecological functions of Nanheng Village.
The problem of flooding is solved by a reservoir and a detention.
The reservoir is usually connected with the river , the water level is consistent, allowing ships to pass, parking; When it rains, 2 dams can control the water level and temporarily store rainwater to reduce the flow and velocity of rainwater at the peak of the flood.
The detention is usually a wetland park; When it rains, the water level is controlled by pipe inlet and outlet with gate, which can temporarily store rainwater and further reduce the flow and velocity of rainwater at the peak of the flood

ZONE3
The flood problem is solved by a set of gutters and canals.
Non-riany Period : Water flows from the canal through the field to the gutters for irrigation.
Rainy Period : The flood flows from the gutters through the field to the canal to temporarily store rainwater.

On sunny days, the river serves as a shipping and leisure space. On rainy days, the river, as a flood space, is the main road for water collection and distribution.

03 RENDEZVOUS WITH BLACK-HEADED GULLS
Spatial strategies to promote harmonious interaction between blackheaded gulls and humans.
Year:2018
Location:Kunming,Yunnan,China
Type:Urban Design & Habitat Design
Instructor:Xie MiaoMiao
Role:Individual Work
The project starts by focusing on the ecological problems caused by humans' arbitrary feeding of black-headed gulls. Every winter, Siberian black-headed gulls migrate to Kunming. Residents have made feeding black-headed gulls an annual pastime. However, indiscriminate feeding will cause muscle loss in black-headed gulls, loss of predation ability, miss the migration period, etc.
In response to the above problems, the project aims to create a co-prosperous space for people and black-headed gulls. We put forward the spatial concepts of Interactive Area, Plant Food Belt, and Animal Food Belt and use spatial strategies to limit human behavior to a certain extent and encourage black-headed gulls to forage independently.
Pollution Process
Food residues and bird droppings fall into the water.
Urea (containing nitrogen) in bird droppings and protein (containing nitrogen and phosphorus) are discharged in large quantities.
Nitrogen and phosphorus cause rapid reproduction of algae and other plankton.
The amount of dissolved oxygen in the water body has decreased, a large number of fish and other organisms have died.
Indiscriminate feeding of black-headed gulls has caused pollution in Dianchi Lake.

Major Issues
Black-headed Gull
Feeding damages the health of black-headed gulls. Feeding impairs the foraging ability of black-headed gulls.

Detail Plan
I proposed a plan that not only meets the interaction needs of humans and black-headed gulls but also does not hinder the autonomous foraging of black-headed gulls and protects their wildness——the Interaction Area.
The human can interact with black-headed gulls by feeding specific gull food on the lawn in this area. In the waters around the Interactive Area, large benthic creatures are the favorite food of black-headed gulls. In the vegetation around the Interaction Area, there are numerous plant berries, which are also part of the diet of black-headed gulls.
04 THE DISABLED CITY
A vision of a city where all citizens are disabled.
Year:2022
Type:Urban Design
Instructor:-
Role:Individual Work
In the future world, due to the shortage of resources, human beings must lose part of their physical functions randomly every day. However, realistic cities are not suitable for the society of all disabled people. I envision a city with multiple transit layers and concentrated residential and office buildings suitable for the disabled.
