Research On Residential Areas Waterscape Plan And Design

With the living environment being garden, there is a growing concern to building living environment, combined with the hydrophilic nature of natural human, the introduction of waterscape to the residential areas has become a trend, coupled with the real estate development boom, making the "living on the water" become the environmental quality of residential areas, so the residential areas waterscape plan and design increasingly attracts attention. However, the residential areas waterscape plan and design has many of the blind spots, the modeling of the plan and design, the lack of synchronization considerations between design and governance, non-sustainable use of water resources, with results that the absence of the local culture in residential areas, can’t form a personalized residential areas style. How to plan and design the residential areas waterscape is an urgent problem to present.The paper analyzes the status of waterscape planning and design in the domestic and foreign residential area, with the landscape design, landscape aesthetics, environmental behavior, ecological design, sustainable development theory as a guide, take the theoretical study, literature study, case studies methods to study the the residential areas waterscape plan and design.The paper defines the related concepts of the the residential areas waterscape plan and design, classifies waterscape as still water, flowing water, the water spray, dry waterscape by the trend of water, analyzes the function of residential areas waterscape, like the landscaping, spatial organization, ecological, socio-economic, disaster relief, and summarize the distribution forms such as core type, linear, wrap-around, group type. Through studying the plan and design principles of residential areas waterscape,summarize the plan and design methods of the residential areas waterscape, from the choice of waterscape location, the control of scale and proportion, the design of waterscape elements, to the management of water application, to lay a theoretical foundation to domestic and foreign case studies, practical investigations and project practice.The paper studies the theory of residential areas waterscape plan and design systematically, and based on analyzing the domestic and foreign cases, field surveying and project practicing, sum up the current shortcomings of waterscape in the domestic residential area:low utilization of water resources; modeling design; lack of connotation; lack of consideration of the ecology; lack of concern for humane; late poorly maintained, and put forward feasible proposal for the shortness. Finally, put forward the refenced development direction of the residential areas waterscape plan and design in domestic: ecologically sustainable waterscape plan and design in residential areas. Choose the water source, design the water circulation system with the principle of cutting costs, govern the water with the method of "nars natural water features system", choose ecological materials, build sustainable revetment with eco-efficient of course, the design of the aquatic plants and animals is an indispensable component in the ecologically and sustainable waterscape plan and design in residential areas.The study provide a refenced theory foundation to the residential areas waterscape plan and design, provide the feasible proposal for the residential area waterscape plan and design in domestic, hope to expand design ideas for designers, inject new vitality to the development of residential areas waterscape.
