Urban greenway design based on ecological flood control
Time: Aug. 7, 2022 - Oct. 21, 2023
Individual work
The Qianhai Bay project addresses severe summer floods and seasonal droughts caused by urbanization and excessive development. This design integrates flood prevention, storage, drainage, and purification to establish ecological flood control. Seasonal floods enhance water-friendly spaces through techniques like pipeline percolation and artificial wetlands, enabling water reuse during dry seasons.
An "orange" floodable promenade promotes interaction wi th water, linking pathways across the river for a cohesive, accessible space. The river serves as a vital ecological greenway, connecting mountains to the sea, reviving Lingnan culture, and ensuring cultural and ecological sustainability.

Road System Greening System Regional Function Water System
The canal is divided into sections, with each tailored to integrate residents' activities based on the surrounding land use and riverbank ecology. This design seamlessly combines water management with the needs of the community.

THE DISAPPEARING BRICK
An experimental exploration of interactive plant ecological paving
Time: Aug. 11, 2021 - Jun. 4, 2022
Individual work
This project focuses on using interactive ecological paving to degrade and reuse the toxicity of oleanders on-site.
Material experiments with oleander components resulted in three types of bricks—stable, crushable underfoot, and plantable—designed for specific site functions. Degradability and filtering tests validated their feasibility.
The design integrates timeliness, interactivity, and plant landscaping to create an engaging, sensoryrich space. Human activities influence the degradation and transformation of the paving, fostering interaction between people and the ecological landscape. This project blends sustainability with an engaging user experience.
FLOWER BORDER DESIGN FOR CAMPUS
Sustainable Flower Border Design and Construction Project
Time: Oct. 2023 - Nov. 2023
Group work
At Soochow University in Suzhou, China, I participated in a rewarding group project on planting design. Collaborating through all stages—from site analysis and concept development to plant selection and implementation— we created a vibrant, seasonally dynamic flower border that balanced aesthetics with ecological functionality. This hands-on experience honed my skills in planting strategies, plant ecology, and collaborative design, showcasing the power of teamwork in realizing impactful, real-world results.
INTERNSHIP PROJECT
Time: Nov. 2023 - Dec. 2023
The Jiaojiang District Fenghuang Park Public Space Improvement Project revitalized an urban park through redesign and renovation. I engaged in the full design process, from site assessment and conceptual planning to technical drawings and construction documentation.
The project focused on enhancing park nodes to better serve the community, blending natural beauty with modern design. This experience sharpened my technical and creative skills, resulting in a rejuvenated park that balances tradition and innovation, offering an inviting space for visitors.

WELCOME TO MY JOURNEY OF LANDSCAPE
At first I use color blocks to depict the landscape in my eyes (20162020)
I studied the landscape space of Suzhou Ancient City along the established route (2024)
Then I started using fountain pens for quick sketching during my travels. (2020-2023)
