Abstract |
The main goal of the research is to examine concepts and strategies of Landscape Urbanism focused on the field of urban design. Based on the theoretical analysis of major concepts in Landscape Urbanism, the research examines six recent urban projects of Landscape Urbanism: Knowledge Corridor, Qinhai Water City, Minneapolis Riverfront, Detroit Future City, Longgan Center Masterplan, and Shanghai Jiading District Redevelopment Masterplan. The research found distinguishable characteristics of urban design strategies in Landscape Urbanism, such as using landscape media in reorganizing urban structures, suggesting multipurpose infrastructural green spaces, and integrating an urban core with peripheral urban edges and hinterlands. Urban design practices of Landscape Urbanism share common values and concepts with other types of Landscape Urbanism projects. However, there are significant differences in the detailed design strategies. In addition, there are disparities in the primary direction of city making between Landscape Urbanism and New Urbanism, the traditional urban design methodology that Landscape Urbanism has criticized. Although Landscape Urbanism has great potential to suggest a new direction in urban design, it also has several limitations to be solved. |
