PROJECT STATEMENT | 项目说明
The project aims to explore a construction framework for green space in the desakota areas in delta-shaped regions with the context of rapid urbanization.
A dynamic construction approach to urban green space has been introduced in this project to address the two prominent issues of ‘complexity’and ‘uncertainty’ in the desakota areas of the Pearl River Delta, so as to be better suited to the needs of urban development adaptation. Specifically, the dynamic construction approach determines which ecosystem services are restored first and which are restored later, based on the degree of future exposure to urban development construction from a low to a high level.
First, restore the habitat matrix that is less affected by changes in future urban construction needs, and improve site regulating services and supporting services.Next, restore the traditional self-cycle model of dike-pond systems on the site, and develop urban agriculture by taking advantage of the geographical location of the adjacent city to improve the additional output value of the land to improve the provisioning services of the site. Finally, the site’s cultural services will be improved and enhanced to meet the leisure and recreational needs of the residents who have moved in.
Driven by the dynamic construction of the project, it provides an operational technical framework for the construction of green spaces in the desakota areas of delta-shaped regions.
