PREFACE
I am profoundly realized that landscape design is an interdisciplinary approach to the various problems in my seven years of work experience. Issues to be explored in a project include environment, culture, people, policy, technology and so on. With discussions, debates and compromisest, as a landscape designer have to integrate various professional opinions. It is really fascinating that I can not only learn in various subjects, but expand my horizons.

DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
Due to the huge area of the whole site, it belongs to the urban design scale. Therefore, the park will not only serving the neighborhood but also become an open space for the city to hold specific events such as concerts and festivals. As a result, the highway and railways that originally were barriers to block residents on the north side have become an advantages to carry citizens to participate in the events.
The surrounding residents enter the park from the east side as a point-like diffusion. When an event is held, the crowd will flow in from the west and southwest.
Therefore, the east side of the park will be designed for residents; and the west side will combine the commercial area and the 303 art way to provide a variety of leisure spaces

POLLINATOR GARDEN & EDIBLE LANDSCAPE
With urbanization, urban micro-agriculture has become a trend in environmental protection. Pollination gardens provide food and habitat for insects such as butterflies and bees; edible landscape can also feed local birds and small mammals, thereby strengthening the urban ecosystem. Therefore, the public space of the city has become a place where ecological sustainability can be implemented.

NATURAL PLAYGROUND
The playground is also shaped by landform. The slides are built along the slopes, and in winter, the different slopes can also become a practice ground for winter activities. The viewing platform not only provides a wide-angle view, but also provides a space for parents and children to rest under the platform.

CANOPY WALKWAY & TRAIL SYSTEM
After the site was graded, the excavated soil from the detention pond was piled up into hills, and the landform was no longer flat. The elevation difference makes the space more vertical changes. The elevated walkway creates a staggered trail system with terrain at different layer to connect 303art way and playground. In addition, the elevated walkway is closer to the canopy, which provides an interesting experience and special view through the trees.

AMPHITHEATRE
The theater formed by the terrain will be integrated with the business district and become a space for Denver to hold concerts and events. The amphitheater faces southwest. Therefore, looking at the stage from the audience, the backdrop of the stage is the Denver skyline and the Rocky Mountains, with the Mt. Evans visible.

GREEN WAY TO HAPPINESS
Contribution of Landscape to GNH
"THERE ARE MANY WAYS TO MEASURE A SOCIETY, THE MOST POPULAR INDICATOR IS GDP. HOWEVER, GDP IS ONLY LIMITED TO THE ECONOMIC LEVEL, AND I PERSONALLY THINK THAT THERE IS A MORE COMPREHENSIVE INDICATOR, GNH (GROSS NATIONAL HAPPINESS), WHICH IS WORTHY OF FURTHER DISCUSSION. "

GNH has four pillars which are:
1.sustainable and equitable socio-economic development
2.environmental conservation
3.preservation and promotion of culture
4.good governance.
Discipline | Landscape / Urban Design

Project Date | 04.2012
Among them, environmental conservation & preservation and promotion of culture are majors in Landscape Architecture. Even landscape design can have a positive impact on the socio-economic development.
Thus, I use GNH as the design concept to design the Calligraphy Greenway, which is a portion of the Taichung Greenbelt and a landmark space for civil activities.

SITE NARRATIVE
TAICHUNG IS LOCATED IN THE CENTRAL PART OF TAIWAN, WITH THE CENTRAL MOUNTAIN RANGE TO THE EAST AND THE DADU TERRACE TO THE WEST. THE FLAT LAND IN THE MIDDLE IS SUITABLE FOR RICE CULTIVATION. DURING THE THE PERIOD OF TAIWAN UNDER JAPANESE RULE BETWEEN 1895 AND 1945, THE WATER CANALS, WHICH WERE CONNECTED TO INCREASE GRAIN PRODUCTION, BECAME THE URBAN BLUE WAY OF THE CITY TODAY.
THE HISTORY OF TAICHUNG CITY'S EXPANSION
DURING THE JAPANESE OCCUPATION PERIOD, THE TRAIN STATION WAS THE CENTER, AND THE STREETS WERE ARRANGED IN A CHESSBOARD PATTERN; THIS AREA IS THE OLD URBAN DISTRICT OF CITY.
AFTER WORLD WAR II, THE ROC REGIME GOVERNED TAIWAN, AND THE TEXTURE OF URBAN EXPANSION BECAME RADIAL. EXPANDING FROM THE PERIPHERY OF THE OLD CITY DISTRICT TO THE NORTHWEST.
IN 1985, THE FREEWAY WAS OPENED TO TRAFFIC AND THE INTERCHANGE WAS SET UP ON TAIWAN BOULEVARD. THEREFORE, THE TRAIN STATION, THE INTERCHANGE AND THE TAICHUNG PORT, THE TAIWAN BOULEVARD CONNECTING THESE THREE NODES, BECOME THE URBAN AXIS OF TAICHUNG CITY.

The Taichung thermal power plant had caused the Dadu Estuary wetland to move down "18" degree. It creats a catastrophic damaged to the wetland ecology, and the air it discharged had polluted the Dadu Estuary wetland since it start working. Large amount of fish farm had damaged the wetland system, causing Benthic species such as Crustaceans, and "Bolboschoenus planieulmis", the most crucial wetland plants within the wetland to fade away. Hence, how does landscape architect deals with all these problems, and how to single out the important layer will be crucial to the latter approach.

DESIGN APPROACH
RESTORATION OF ECOLOGY
The main goal of this project is to restore the damaged Dadu Estuary wetland by recovering its' Ecology System.First, I singled out the environmental fabric with 7 layers, the hydrology system, current infrastructure system, current vegetation system, circulation, zoning,urban typology, and bird habitat. With the identification of these elements, I set up a timeline to provide landscape adaption into the future. Even after the Taichung Thermal Power Plant closed in the 25 years, the Dadu Estaury wetland will return to its' original beauty
JELLY FISH AS MEDIUM TO RETURN
Jelly fish is a landscape medium used to filter the polluted wetland and recover the wetland soil. It can adapts to tidal flutuation, deposit the sand with ebb type. All these treatment will provide Dadu Estuary wetland a process to recover the original landscape, and at last the biomatrix of the wetland will blossom in the year of 2030

Dakung, Taichung’s urban backyard, it contents mountains surround Taichung’s metro area. As the transition between city and mountain villages, this area is not only a transportation hub, but plays a quite important role in the trading of agricultural products and daily necessities. However, 20 years ago, a magnitude 7.3 earthquake destroyed this area, and this site was right on the earthquake fault. Hence, how to transform the abandoned military camp into a tourist center, this potential geological problems will be the crucial factor.

DESIGN STRATEGIES
THE LOCATION OF THIS TOURIST CENTER IS AT THE JUNCTION OF THE CITY AND THE MOUNTAIN, AND IT IS ALSO THE ENTRANCE TO THE NATURAL SCENIC AREA. DUE TO THE DIFFERENCE IN THE NUMBER OF TOURISTS IN DIFFERENT SEASONS, THE NARROW MOUNTAIN ROADS CANNOT LOAD THE HUGE TRAFFIC VOLUME IN PEAK SEASONS. THEREFORE, THIS TOURIST CENTER WILL BECOME A TRANSFER STATION FOR PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION. IN ADDITION, THE OPEN SPACE OF THIS TOURIST CENTER IS ALSO A DAILY ACTIVITY SPACE FOR SUBURBAN RESIDENTS.

More than a hundred years ago, Ali Mountain was covered with dense virgin forests. There was only one Indigenous ethnic groups, the Tsou, hunted in this forest. Until the Japanese Occupation, the Japanese set up a mountain railway here in order to exploit the rich forest resources. That is an unwise move on this fragile island with frequent typhoons and earthquakes. Nowadays, people understand that forests are quire important for soil and water conservation. We also know how to respect mountains and plant secondary forests. The industry has also transformed into scenic tourism.

“ URBANIZATION HAS DISRUPTED THE BALANCE OF LAND. CITIES ABSORB THE RESOURCES AND ENERGY FROM THE SURROUNDING TOWNS, AND DISCHARGE A LARGE AMOUNT OF WASTE AND POLLUTION. HENCE, VERTICAL FARMING HAS BECOME A TOPIC OF DISCUSSION IN RECENT YEARS, AND THIS MODUL IS DESIGNED FOR 5-STORY APARTMENTS WHICH ARE COMMON IN TAIWAN."

The lifestyle has changed from a self-sufficient agriculture to urban division of labor nowaday. It is really convenient and efficent. However, It become a potential problem when cities over rely on imported food and totally lose food production capacity. Hence, if we want to have a vegetable garden in the crowd city, roof become the only available space.
URBANIZATION OF TAIWAN
CRISIS
Taiwan is one of the countries with high population density in East Asia.Over 23 million people on a small island. The population density is too high to restrict urban green space.
OPPORTUNITY
The Tropic of Cancer crosses through Taiwan, and the warm climate is suitable for the growth of fruits and vegetables.
