BIRD’S EYE VIEW

Because the site was originally a shipyard, the design aims to combine the characteristics of the site itself, retaining the shipyard elements while turning the site into a modern recreational park, so the design of the barge part evolved from the ship as the inspiration. The shape of the barge part is simplified, modified and optimized by the contour line of the ship's mooring, and then finally shaped.

SECTION A-A’ SECTION B-B’

These are some simple renderings that can show details of the design which might not be noticed in the bird’s eye view or renderings, such as the under-bridge area, the music corner, the pavements, and how people can travel between places.

A red track is designed in the middle of the field for the convenience of people who come and go for exercise. People can run or ride along the track.

The runway divides the whole site into two parts, north and south, and is also used as a link between the height difference of the two parts. The main entrance and exit of the site are on the south side for pedestrian access, while the waterfront on the north side raises the ground. A variety of plants are planted on both sides of the runway to form a landscape for people to enjoy while exercising.

From the entrance of the site deep into the site, you can see the water landscape. Since the original use of the site was a shipyard, where various boats traveled, it was inspired to design the installation following the principle of a periscope in a submarine.

People can walk into a small pavilion at the end of the walkway and observe the birds flying over the site through the principle of mirror reflection imaging.

RENDERINGS

The two pictures on the left are the main entrance and main exit of the site. They’re also two highlights of the whole designing of the modern park.

Also to follow the overall theme of the site - transforming the old abandoned shipyard into a modern waterfront park - the shape of the tree pond at the entrance is also designed in the shape of a ship, and multiple tree ponds can form a fleet when viewed from above.The directions on the bow of the boat also point out the appropriate route for visitors to the site. Along the direction of the bow, you can see the water landscape in the center of the site in front of you, and the overall route changes from narrow to wide.In addition, the landscape artifacts placed at the entrance can attract the children's interest in playing and echo the whales in the central lake, as well as the theme of the old shipyard renovation.

At the exit we can see a pedestrian walkway erected above the red runway, which enriches the ornamental aspect of the site and links the two sides of the site. People can rest, picnic, or exercise on the lawn to the left of the red trail. The direction of the red track also points out the route for people to follow. If you walk along the red track, you will see the steps leading up to the north side of the site, and then you will reach the waterfront to enjoy the river view. Or, walking along the red track and going up the ramp to reach the river side is also a good idea.

Exploration of grassland desertification protection under the new economic cycle strategy

BACKGROUND

The results of the fifth china desertification and desertified land monitoring show that the area of desertified land in Inner Mongolia is 914 million mu, and the area of desertified land is 612 million mu, accounting for 23.3% and 23.7% of the national desertification and desertified land respectively.

CURRENT SITUATION

Xilamuren grassland has been seriously desertified since 2008, and the current management and planting of artificial grassland have just started

MAIN PROBLEM

POPULATION AND ECONOMY RESEARCH

The causes of desertification are related to the past economic policies in the grassland area. The aging of the population has resulted in the main economic income from animal husbandry and farming. However, with the development of tourism and the increase in the number of tourists, the service industry has been paid attention to. The new economic cycle relying on grassland will be a major strategy to solve the grassland problems

AREA PLANNING PLAN FOR SHIRAMURIN

DESIGN CONCEPT

CORE IDEA: Vertical stratification combined with plane partition. The fragmentation area of grassland should be reasonably designed,Wetland Park as the center to establish a number of different functional areas around the ecosystem.

SOD MODEL

The free development of the edge of Grassland terrain

① Single steppe region

Superimposed transformation of grassland topography

② Free-cut grassland Add other area functions

The connection of different areas of grassland

③Rezoning the grassland according to the topography Grasslands surround other functions

Description of grassland degradation

1990

Fractured space integration and grassland functional zoning.The strategy to solve the grassland problem should be three-dimensional and omni-directional. From a large perspective, it should give priority to solving the human factors in local development, such as ecological damage caused by economic problems. Industrial transformation: species diversification instead of single grazing, wetland parks instead of traditional tourism, etc., new energy utilization instead of coal mining, etc.

The ground outside the grassland is hardened

Grazing area planning, prohibit random grazing

New development of grassland economy, new energy utilization

Path planning to reduce human intervention

Dredge river silt to expand river flow and increase water storage

Increase of wind and sand control plants in the boundary of grassland

Xilamuren grassland terrain is mainly slightly undulating hills, the average elevation difference is about 30m. The highest elevation of the site is 1625m, located in the eastern part of the grassland, which will be used as a viewing platform area

AUXILIARY FACILITIES

The use of some auxiliary facilities in the site can effectively play an economic and environmental role, such as sewage collection and utilization, grazing areas restricted to a certain area can better protect the grassland, water trucks can increase the irrigation efficiency of natural water resources, etc

PLANT PLANNING

The planned site consists of four functional areas, including a grazing area, a wetland park, a farming area and a protected area

CAMP SITE

The artificial landscape installation mainly includes sunken square, artificial tree pool and art installation structure and so on. At the river side of the grassland, there are also water wheel interaction areas, planting interaction areas and independent grazing interaction areas for visitors to experience.

Sichuan Province

It is located in the interior of southwest China, at the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. Sichuan province has a wide variation of landforms from east to west, a complex and diverse topography and a generally pleasant climate.

Chengdu

Chengdu is the capital of Sichuan Province, a sub-provincial city, a megacity, a national central city and the core city of the twin-city economic circle in the Chengdu-Chongqing region.

Concept composition

Emotional stages of the dying patient

period

Patients are relatively quiet and their fears are not prominent. They need to be given moral encouragement and comfort in exchange for satisfaction on a psychological level. Master Plan

A high desire for survival and a strong sense of dependence on health care professionals. Patients need to feel cared for and loved, and fears need to be dispelled.

Loss of confidence in treatment, depression creek, possible suicidal tendencies. Patients need to be coaxed to express their fears and worries to achieve psychological and spiritual balance.

Caring Room

For the reception of a number of sick elderly people, providing medical care and special care services for the elderly

Medical Room

An area where doctors and nurses work to provide medical diagnostic services to residents in nursing homes.

The small library in the building can be used as a quieter reading and office space.

To cope with the effects of age-related illnesses; the inconvenience of walking up and down the stairs for the elderly, accessible toilets have been installed on the ground floor of the building

The Lobby

The lobby serves as a gathering point for people to chat and meet

The Reception

Greeting newcomers to the home and providing them with information about the home. And handling the external business of the nursing home, etc.

To provide daily services to the people in the building, to manage information about the building's inhabitants, public health and to respond to unexpected emergencies. 10m

First Floor

The 1st floor of the building is the living area, which offers better views, better window views, a quieter environment and more sunlight. The home is set up as a 2-storey building with staff offices in each building, so that whichever room the person lives in needs emergency services, the staff can be there in the shortest possible time.

Activity Room

It can be used as a place for everyday leisure activities such as chess, cards and parties.

Central Garden

The central garden, as a semi-enclosed landscape point in the centre of the building, has a more lively atmosphere for people to relax and chat outside

Meditation Room

The meditation room faces the most scenic area of the grounds, where the calm natural scenery provides a sense of peace

Lounge Room

In order to meet the different needs of the residents, the building has a number of areas suitable for leisure activities, which the residents can choose according to their preferences

The ground floor of the building focuses more on functionality and diversity of use, providing services, socialising, activities and creating the conditions for positive events that may occur for the people who live in the building. The main aim is to provide residents with a caring experience that can be enriched over time and to expand their network of relationships.

Architectural concept

The three separate buildings combine to form a small, semi-open, semiprivate community space that can have an inward convergence of community space, while at the same time welcoming people and things from outside the building to enter and tell stories. This allows the building to be both quiet and vibrant.

The ground floor of the building consists of two parts: indoor and outdoor. The interior space is divided into small rooms to support the different types of activities that take place. These small rooms declare their independence from the bustling central garden on one side and open up boldly to the beautiful surrounding landscape on the other.

The outdoor central garden adds some natural views to the building, allowing the building to blend in with its surroundings. People can stay in the centre of this space, enjoying the views and interacting with those who pass by.

Landscape concept

When designing landscapes, consideration is given to the use of medium and small scale landscape areas.

Rehabilitative landscapes must give priority to the needs of special people or patients in their use, and the needs of normal people must not be completely ignored in meeting the needs of special people, who are usually accompanied by normal people in their activities.

Landscape therapy uses the colours, sounds, smells, textures and tastes of nature to stimulate and guide the senses of the user. Landscape therapy is not limited to the garden grounds attached to a medical facility, but is a therapeutic approach that encompasses the wider landscape in scale.

Material analysis

Design Theory

The space is not just an enclosed space for the elderly, but I also want it to attract people from the outside to enter and stay to relate to the people in the field, to form connections.

Thinking in terms of feminist care. Feminist care theory is based on connection and interdependence. The architect designs and completes the building is described as a form of care, but the building itself may not have care What matters is what happens within the building, how the building adapts to its location and context, who it will house or replace, all of which aspects have a crucial impact on the building's care.

What care emphasises is the processes and relationships that extend forward over time and involve all the relationships that are created. So care should not only look at the completed building, but should begin with the responsibility of care.

So the building will be seen not only as a thing, but also as a relationship with the ongoing environment, people, animals and plants that exist through time and space. All of this will be woven into a complex, continuous web of life.
