Ground level access is divided into three main streams. Office workers who arrive by car will proceed to basement level and take elevators directly to the office areas of the building. Visitors who arrive by car will be dropped off on the north side of the building and those arriving by bus will access from the south, both making use of the central axis spine, running north-south at ground level. This axis also becomes a central break our space, providing views of the mountains and the lake at upper levels of the building.

A special VIP drop off at the eastern end of the building allows special guests to be brought direct to the commercial lobby, while exhibition visitors and conference delegates a brought in via the central corridor.

进入建筑主要有三个入口。开车到达的上班族从地下室乘电梯直达办公室。开车到达的访客从建筑北面进入，乘公车到达的访客从南面进入。地面中央轴线贯穿南北，即从空间上进行分割，又为远处湖光山色提供观景台。

东面的VIP下客处使得重要客人直接进入商务中心。一般访客和从会人员从中央通

The surface water management strategy is integrated into the building design, providing capture of rain water and improved microclimate.

The strategy is divided into two main components:

1. Capture and Treatment of Rainwater

Rainwater from the roof level pavilions is directed into surface water attenuation and biofiltration pond, where it is treated prior to storage at basement level. It is important to provide as much contact with plant material as possible in order to remove suspended solids and organic material prior to tank storage.

2. Attenuation and flood mitigation.

Excess water collected in basement tanks is discharged into the ground level landscape , where it is joined by run off from vehicular and pedestrian surfaces. It is then led through a series of attenuation and filtration ponds to ensure that the site has a green field equivalent discharge quantity.

In this case we would be aiming for discharge volume of 1.25 l/s (2.5 l/s/ha).

The site will eventually discharge into Meixi Lake and the scheme ensures that the quality objectives set down in the Eco City guidelines are adhered to or exceeded.

地表水管理策略被融合在建筑设计中，从而最大化捕获和收集雨水，改善局部气候。策略主要包括两部分：1. 雨水的捕获和处理屋顶阁楼的雨水经引流入地表水沉降池和生物过滤池后存贮到地下蓄水池。在此阶段需最大化和植物接触面积以达到去除悬浮固体和有机物的目的。 2. 沉淀池和抗洪管理剩余水被放还到地面植被，和地表水一起经过一系列的沉淀池和过滤池。该场地排水量目标为为1.25升/秒（2.5升/秒/公顷），以保证达到和绿地同等的排水量。经过滤的剩余水将达到或超过生态城所设标准，最终排入梅溪湖。

Wilder Associates - internship

i started my internship in the wilder associates in the middle of april.i was working there on everyday basis so i could have had that chance to experi-ence that office-life in the landscape architecture company.

at the beginning i was preparing sketches (eg. bendera road project) amd doing some research on the materials, furnitures and planting.later my role was extended and i was preparing diagrams (autocad & photoshop),sections (autocad & photoshop) and i was included in conceptual design at the first stages of the design process.

these three diagrams that I produced for the meixi lake project in china were includ-ed in the design package that was sent to the client.1. suds scheme for the entire site2. access & circulation for the entire site3. access & circulation for roof level

The roof level of the building offers an extension of the exhibition experience by creating a series of zones through which visitors are taken on a journey.

The route also provides strategic vantage points in order to take in views of the Meixi Lake development.

Visitors will have an opportunity to choose various routes, each culminating at the outdoor classroom, where the sustainability credentials of the Eco City can be explained.

The VIP pavilion at the western end of the building provides an exclusive viewing area, where the emphasis is on greater dwell time and the ability to entertain guests.

作为绿建展示的一部分，屋顶花园为访客提供了一个崭新的体验之旅，同时又成为一个欣赏梅溪湖的至高点。访客通过不同的展览路径，最终汇集于户外教室从而从理论上更好的了解生态城的可持续性。

西端的VIP馆提供私人观景区，更舒适的休息区以及多样化的娱乐设施。

The planting scheme has been developed in order to respond to the colour themes , created within the exhibition strategy.

The strongest colour -Red has been used to define the extent of the site with the creation of tree ‘book ends’ to the east ad west and linear structural planting to north and south.

The site frontage is dominated by blocks of Magnolia planting, which provides spring and autumn interest without dominating the southern facade of the building.

The meadow and wetland planting areas provide subtle hues of green, gold and blue and form a lush and diverse buffer zone from the main road to the south and buildings to the west.

种植方案以呼应展览的颜色主题为主。抢眼的红色被用来勾画边界：东西面种植观赏树木，南北面种植成排灌木。

临街种植玉兰花组，既为春秋两季提供观赏价值又不会过于高大而遮掩建了筑墙面。

草甸和湿地种植区以绿色，金色和蓝色为主，形成道路和建筑之间一个郁葱而富于变化的缓冲区。

The atrium spaces form a natural extension of the office space and provide views to the mountains or lake beyond. Therefore the geometry of these courtyards will be created in a linear approach, in order to extend the eye line to the horizon.

Raised planters will also provide seating and integrate lighting. Materials such as polished granite and resin bonded glass will create a harmony between traditional and innovative surfaces.

中庭空间既是办公空间的延伸，又是享受湖光山色之处。直线形在中庭中被大肆应用，从而在视觉上延伸眼前的景致到远处的天际线。

架高花槽整合座椅和照明于一体。材料上选择抛光花岗岩和树脂粘结玻璃材料，从而达到传统和创新之间的和谐。

My role was varied and included:- research - conceptual design- diagramatic drawings- autocad drawings- photoshop - creating indesign documents

Battle McCarthy - internship

I came to the battle mccarthy to assist with one of the big project that the company prepared for the competition in china. as i came at the later stage the design was already completed and my main role was to prepare sets of drawings. I prepared Autocad drawings for new architectural features in the landscape like: seasonal biospheres (drawing on the left), new laboratory/research building (top left), disney botanical biosphere, floating cafe and timber shelter.

Battle McCarthy - internship

other assignments included:- prepare section drawings (autocad and photoshop)- prepare photomontages/ visualisation- prepare a plan view of the selected site (photoshop)

Royals Business Park Masterplan

the new masterplan converts this brownfield site into urban mixed-use area contributing to the character of dockside to envisage the waterfront as a hub of activity and opportunity for urban food production.Proposed Suds scheme unites the whole site. Royal albert way is covered with green bridges to mitigate the noise and to connect the site with surrounded area. With 'green carpets' it also coun-teracts the heat island effect.

Royals Business Park - Landscape character assessment & sensitivity to change

landscape character assessment

the tool that I used to help me under-stand and articulate the character of the landscape. it helps indentify the features that give a locality its'sense of place' and pinpoints what makes it different from neighbouring areas.

landscape quality and sensitivity to change

the assessment of townscape quality/value is the process of eval-uating different character areas with regard to their character, condition and aesthetic appeal and then attaching a value to these areas. it also takes into account an appraisal of the likely value or importance to the community.the capacity of the landscape / townscape to accept change of the type and scale proposed has to be assessed based on the vulnera-bility of each character area to degradation through the intro-duction of new features, or through the loss of existing features.

the sections show new elements in the landscape. the attrac-tions with aquarium, new shop-ping / market hub, wetland and water activities at the dock-front will improve the site so-cially, ecologically, economically and aesthetically.The vision is to return the royal albert dock to its former glory as a thriving, vibrant place to live, work and visit

Royals Business Park - sections

Royals Business Park - gis

While doing the assessment GIS helped me with my work. I prepered series of draw-ings that showed me the right direction in designig the suds system.

Royals Business Park - sketches

the sketches show progress in designing process.

before I took the design to the autocad, first stages of the design were developed by hand ( two drawings on the left).

in my design i introduced big glass canopies / walls as a type of barrier against the noise and wind (bottom left).I also designed the suds system for the entire site. the sketch below shows particular cells of this scheme.

the drawing above shows the idea of 'sensory garden' with planting that stimulate all senses.

Royals Business Park - photomontages

the photomontages show four different areas of the site : the floating fields at the dockfront, wetland, new dockfront with glass canopies and 'sensory gar-den' next to the newham councils building.

Royals Business Park - construction drawings

construction drawings were drawn in autocad. 1. waterworks construction detail with swale and rigid water channel sections 2. waterworks construction detail plan view3. 'Sensory garden' planting plan with planting schedule

Garden Design

'colour gallery' garden was a project that I did during my Certificate of land-scape design year in Hadlow College. the garden was a part of the broadview gardens that are located in peaceful picturesque kent countryside.the objective was to create a garden that invites people for further exploring of the gardens. the whole process was carried out by hand including final plan.

Garden design - colour and texture plan

this colour and texture plan includes planting like: evergreen hedge, ornamen-tal trees and grasses, deciduous and evergreen shrubs, perennials, ferns and succulents.
