报告内容简介: 

       Neighbourhood landscapes are the quintessential forms of landscapes in most cities. These are the green spaces that buildings and infrastructures are embedded in—the myriad interstitial spaces between buildings, peripheral plantings at edge of residential plots, and increasingly, vegetated areas on buildings. Despite their small individual sizes, neighbourhood landscapes collectively constitute a rather large proportion of cities’ vegetative cover. As landscapes, they have the potential to influence the ecology and quality of the urban environment, improve the well-being urban dwellers, and forge identity, sense of place and care for the environment. This potential increases markedly for neighbourhood landscapes because of their large land uptake and proximity to the large majority of urban dwellers. But because of their mundaneness and small size, they are seldom the attention of designers compared to large gardens or green infrastructure projects. There is scant literature in the world on conceptual framework, approaches and design guidelines for the planning and design of neighbourhood landscapes, especially in the context of high-density estates which will increasingly need to house more people in the rapidly urbanising regions of Asia and elsewhere in the world. This talk presents highlights of the project undertaken in collaboration with the Housing and Development Board, National Parks Board and Urban Redevelopment Authority on development of a conceptual framework and guidelines that could maximize the potential of neighbourhood landscapes through urban ecosystem services. This presentation gives an overview of this project, covering the interdisciplinary.
