Strategy?Seeding Sustainability-Creating Lifescape EcologiesConnectivity and Site SpecificityThe Galaxy Yabao Competition is an opportunity for us to explore the creation of a holistic park landscape,one that incorporates inn5、ovation,sustainability,recreation and development within an artful design framework.By envisioning the landscape from a broader perspective,our approach transcends the ordinary notions of park to become a new Lifescape Ecology.Our ability to draw on the knowledge and expertise of other disciplines,w6、orking in close collaboration with urban designers and environment planners,enables us to formulate clearer development and sustainable strategies for the park.Our ultimate objective is to enhance the experiential nature of the park,reveal the intrinsic beauty of the site and utilize ecological proc7、esses,fully integrating the landscape with the proposed development.This conceptual interface between the development,nature and the park is critical in defining our approach to creating a lasting Vision.Our design process of exploration allows us to see the possibilities.This willingness to discove8、r generates ideas,concepts,systems,and programs that drive its creation.The categorization of park no longer apply,it is in integration of process and site that formulates the uniqueness of this PARK.?Introduction?The Leisure

biodiversity.This will include the restoration of two high value ecological habitats,forests and wetlands.Forest Habitats-Existing areas of tree planting within the site boundary are dominated by dense stands of young Acacia magnium,a non-native speci41、es with limited ecological value.The landscape design would involve thinning of existing exotic trees and planting of native species such as Aquilaria sinensis and Sterculia lanceolata that have fruits and fl owers known to attract local wildlife species including forest birds,insects and mammals.We42、tland Habitats-the edge treatment of the existing reservoir and new water features would incorporate shallow areas with extensive planting of fl oating,emergent and riparian wetland vegetation.Wetland habitats are extremely biologically
