Designing the New Cities of China
The Sustainable Cities Initiative and the UO Department of Landscape Architecture Present:
Designing The New Cities of China: Blending Ancient Traditions with 21st Century Sustainability
China is experiencing urbanization at a scale previously unseen in world history. Much of the new urban development is very international, rather than Chinese, in character. Dr. Jie Hu will discuss how the Tsinghua University Planning and Design Institute attempts to infuse projects with both 21st century ecological science and the spirit of Chinese culture and tradition. His ideas are illustrated in his prize-winning designs for Beijing's Olympic Forest Park (twice the size of New York City's Central Park), Tieling Fanhe New City Landscape planning and Tangshan Nanhu Eco-City Central Park.
