Research Of Urban Space And Landscape Design On Post-industrial Era

Landscape, in our current era of the complex and changeable, is facing great opportunities and challenges, in contributing to the living environment, ecological environment, human-civilization construction. Landscape will become one of leading subjects in the 21st century, and even a longer period of time, whilst the challenges and opportunities faced are also huge. Based on five main challenges of post-industrial landscape, this paper is focusing on the three aspects of challenges, including ecological transformation of human civilization, the environmental crisis and the rapid urbanization, which is a comparative and comprehensive research. On the macro level, there is a cross-temporal comparison on how British facing the challenges and tackling the negatively degradation of the natural environment and how China seeking the proposal for achieving sustainable development. Depending on the complexity and diversity of the condition and statement of different cities in China, the relationship between landscape and city is complex, so this article selected comparative case analysis to exam and replenish the proposal pointed out based on the macro-comparative analysis for tackling those problems. At the theoretical level, the role in the comprehensive system of landscape with characteristics of post-industrial age in urban development of China has been explored in this research, which is contributing to make deeper understanding in the relationship between landscape and urban spatial development with the new challenges in post-industrial age.2013 was a turning point of urban development of China, since that, the post-industrial age is coming in China. The researchers and designers of urban design and landscape design are facing the huge challenges. It is necessary to research and explore the relationship between landscape and urbanization to find the correct and sustainable direction for practice.To explore effectively and discuss deeply the role of landscape in urban spatial development in post-industrial age, this research has choose Changchun in China and Glasgow in the UK as a comparative case study. Methodologies used in this research are including comparative analysis, case study, literature review and interview. It research from the theory level analysis the relationship between nature development and human development to a generally micrometric level to make proposals depending on the historical review experience of UK in tackling environmental issues brought by industrialization and urbanization. The vision of urban development and foreseeable new challenges are waiting for us in the post-industrial age through cross-temporal comparative studies between UK and China. In addition, the case study would play an important role in verifying the effectiveness in practices of cases of the proposals given depending on the analysis above. The methodology of this research used includes Comparative studies, Case, Literature, and Interview. Those would help this research to achieve a more comprehensive understanding, holistic analysis.
