PROLOGUE

- For History and Nature

Time has left us history, and also has pushed us to the future. History has gradually withdrawn from our real life, becoming fragile and dilapidated, but increasingly important. The future shields us from the history, but it also endows us to recall the past. The history should become clearer in the years to come.

But the reality is not so. Our lifestyle is erasing the traces of history, and this process is accelerating.

The construction of cities seems to be racing against nature. We are striving to build, while nature is rapidly recycling our achievements. When the future gives us more powerful influence, urban designers should make a choice between accelerating creation and mitigating loss.

01 ZEN BORN UNDERGROUND Religious Complex Design Qingliang Mountain, Nanjing, Jiangsu, China

Area: 8.87ha Type: Summer Workshop Date: 7/2022-10/2022 Instructor: Tian Li Keywords: Buddhism, Multi-function, Urban Regeneration

Nowadays, with the rapid development of society, people suffer from spiritual emptiness caused by highly pressured urban life while enjoying rich material life.

Thus, the tranquil atmosphere and spiritual purification provided by Buddhist Zen spaces become increasingly important.

The Qingliang Mountain in Nanjing is a small natural mountain. Historically, it was once an important Buddhist site. There were Buddhist buildings in the Ming and Qing Dynasties on the hill, making a robust Buddhist atmosphere. This design aims to create an open public Zen space, and explores the development potential of Qingliang Mountain underground space. Building Zen space underground can protect cultural heritages and avoid suffering from high temperatures.

Under the Qingliang Mountain, this design uses the parameterized technique to integrate the Buddhist Zen space with the daily living space through the combination of carefully designed units, and constructs an underground Zen complex.

After parametric design operations based on the limits of the site boundary, we generate several complexes composed of various units, and select the most appropriate one. The whole complex consists of 2701 units. The large courtyard units are arranged consecutively, with the ends wrapped up by the Buddha Hall space to form the core Zen space. Around the core, spaces are the external service modules and living modules composed of the small exhibition, office, and living space in sequences or units.

02 LIVE WITH ANCIENT CITY Heritage Centered Planning & Design Yuecheng Site, Nanjing, Jiangsu, China

Area: 18.8ha Type: Academic Date: 4/2021-6/2021 Instructor: Yi Shi 101012193@seu.edu.cn Keywords: Counterpoint Relation, Eco-friendly, Openness

The project site has a layered history. Archaeological remains from the Shang and Zhou Dynasties to the Qing Dynasty have been found inside the site, including the Yuecheng site. From the perspective of geographical location, the site is located at the end of the central axis of Nanjing's old urban area. It is close to many important landscapes, making it the core area to shape the image of Nanjing.

The status of the site development does not match its importance. Most of the internal area of the site is still under construction. Due to the lack of action, the Yuecheng site has low ornamentality and accessibility. Only one Yudai River is within site, separated from the surrounding natural resources.

The project renovates the site aiming to tap the site's potential and highlight the importance of displaying the city’s image. Taking the Yuecheng site as the core element of design, we build a heritage park around it, which closely interact with the surrounding environments and is harmonious with nature. The buildings around the site are made according to the texture of the site.

Create a wedge-shaped green space with the site as the core, and extend the heritage park to the Qinhuai River and the Zhonghua Gate, forming a counterpoint relationship. The internal footpath of the park is in a vertical staggered form with the direction of the archaeological excavation pit.

The landscape system with the river-crossing trestle path as the core is built along the Yudai River. The plank road forms three circular nodes around which a green landscape is created.

Response to Nature and History The most harmonious way for human beings to get along with nature is the mutual penetration of the natural ecological environment and human life, that is, to seek a balance between using natural resources and protecting the natural environment.

Expressing the historical information of the site through spatial operation, rather than just through vision, is an effective way to memorize history deeply.

03 SALVAGE THE HARBOR Coastal Public Space Design South Harbor, Helsinki, Finland

Area: 18.9ha Type: Competition Date: 9/2021-6/2022 Instructor: Wenfei Zhang Keywords: Rain Flood, Terrain, Revitilization

Helsinki South Harbor was once the transportation center of Helsinki, a port city. The construction of the West Port and the port of Vuosaari has reduced the transportation function of the South Port. South Harbor, located in the city center, is now losing its vitality.In addition, the sea level is rising caused of climate warming, and the Baltic Sea is also affected. Helsinki South Harbor is facing the risk of being submerged.

The project aims to transform the coastal public space of Helsinki South Harbor into an open space with strong accessibility, comfort, and attraction. At the same time, terrain design is used to cope with the sea level rise in the future to 2100.

To integrate the local characteristics of Helsinki into the design, we extracted the sea ice phenomenon along the coast of Helsinki. We made a topology of the sea ice morphology to generate the terrain used in the design.

04 OTHER WORKS Social Research: The Integration Degree of Nanjing International Community Abstract:

With the rapid process of social globalization, the international community has become an essential carrier of many social phenomena in Nanjing. Cultural differences lead to of separation between immigrants and between immigrants and aborigines to certain degrees. Concerning such phenomena, this report combines and analyzes the status quo and internal determinants of the degree of integration of international communities from the perspective of integration and provides suggestions for constructing integrated international communities.

Example of analysis results: residential status

Based on the questionnaire survey results, we can judge that Nanxiu Village, where housing purchase occurs, has the highest degree of integration in living conditions, followed by Dongfang Tianjun, where people live with their families.

Regarding working conditions, we analyzed the occupation and enterprise type of residents, the highest degree of integration is among the residents of Nanxiu Village, who take Chinese students in their social network. And the second is the residents of the Youth Olympic Village who work with Chinese colleagues.

Regarding social participation, the integration of foreign residents in Dongfang Tianjun and Few or no Nanxiu Village is significantly higher than in Youth Olympic Village.To a certain extent, it is affected Occasional by their living style and occupation。 Often Few or no Occasional

In social relations, we mainly collect data on the number of Chinese friends of non-Chinese residents. The overseas students in Nanxiu Village have more Chinese people in social network.

Often

In terms of access to public service facilities, the Youth Olympic Village has the highest degree of integration, which may be because the Youth Olympic Village was initially built as a city node.

Few or no

From the perspective of cultural adaptation, the integration degree of Nanxiu Village is higher than that of the Youth Olympic Village and Dongfang Tianjun. Students have the highest cultural adaptability, followed by company employees, housewives and children have the least.

Based on the questionnaire survey results, non-Chinese residents tend to gather in apartments under the premise of foreign students or international apartments. At the same time, the environment of pure commercial housing can promote the integration of residential space to a greater extent than apartments.

Summary and Optimization Strategies

Although there is a certain degree of integration difference in residential space due to different housing types, the equal use of public space is essential to promote integration.The public areas of different sizes, types, and service objects provided by various communities are used by residents of various countries simultaneously.

Optimization strategies:

Primary Mastered High General Low

Both social evaluation and identity recognition levels show that Nanxiu Village has a higher integration degree than Dongfang Tianjun and Youth Olympic Village. This is affected by the acceptance of community services and participation in community activities.

Regarding spatial equity, most international communities passively provide space for the integration of local and foreign residents, lacking consideration of the integration needs of migrant groups. From the economic and social aspects, the integration of non-Chinese residents is primarily affected by their occupations and enterprises. From the cultural aspect, the degree of integration of non-Chinese residents depends on the demand for social relations and the degree of cultural barriers.

1. Create a diversified environment. Hold Sino foreign exchange activities according to the immigration background of various international communities, and create more space for quick social events.

2. Promote community renewal. Create residential and public spaces that meet the needs of migrant groups.

3. Build service facilities. Implant public service facilities within the 15-minute life circle.
