The Sustainable Design of City Hanging Gardens

摘要

Recent years, with the speed-up of urbanization, especially great population's moving into the city, urban diseases like city water-logging, waste processing, sewage discharging, traffic congestion, air pollution and city infrastructure backwardness become even serious. Besides, traditional city humanities, history, ecology, commercial mode and living environment are difficult to develop. Except expanding new cities and satellite cities, how to establish a sustainable outlook becomes a hot topic. In this paper, from the perspective of sustainable development of city hanging gardens, taking the Tree Cube in Changzhou and the K11 art mall in Shanghai as examples, we discuss the positive role played by the hanging gardens in solving the urban diseases; analyze the current problems, and striving to seek the sustainable development of urban living environment.
