Urban Renewal And Spatial Reconstruction Based On The Concept Of "Landscape Empathy"

Regarding the contradiction of shortage of natural resources and shortage of urban space,the vacant fields in urban renewal process need to be reused rationally.Therefore,landscape architecture has gradually become an important means to deal with urban problems.At the same time,the landscape architecture intervenes in the urban renewal and the sp atial transformation process,facing complex questions and serious challenges because of the complex relations among city spaces.Empathy refers to the ability to understand other people’s emotions and stand in the perspective of others to deal with problems.In the broad sense,the “landscape empathy” is in the landscape planning and design,designers stand in the user and the place of the two point of view.In the narrow sense,is a design and evaluation system established based on the concept of empathy psychology,mainly discusses the user how to form the empathy response on the site,the designer how to apply the psychological state of design plan for the site,so as to form or strengthen the user’s psychological empathy.The research is to perfect the theoretical framework of landscape architecture,actively explore the greatest possibility and the best way in the integration of landscape architecture and other disciplines and its use in practice.This study focuses on the interpretative and instrumenta l research of the "Landscape Empathy" theory,adopting methods such as literature research,case studies,field research,interviews,etc.The theoretical framework and extended applications of empathy in psychology serves as foundation and reference coordinates of the "landscape empathy" theory.In this study,the people,the environment,and the relationship between them are the three research objects of "landscape empathy" theory,and the structures,mechanisms,processes,characteristics,results and effects of the "landscape empathy" theory will be explored in the dimensions of time and space.The study on this theory will be a new attempt to guide the construction of the theoretical framework of landscape architecture with different disciplinary logics,bringing some humanistic thinking and intervention to t he immature theoretical system.The construction of "Landscape Empathy" theory is also of great significance for solving the actual urban problems.Landscape architectures will take more diversified perspectives when they involve under the view of "Landscape Empathy ".And with people and the environment as two element cores,The practice of the theory will seek for a harmonious symbiotic model among people,cities and nature.In the "Landscape Empathy" theory,the designer is not only the spokesperson of the sites,but also the bridge and catalyst between the humans and the environment.
