TJU AWARD-WINING WORK

General Design Category Honor award

Cell Growth Dish – Brownfield Landscape Ecological Restoration Design

Project Team

Students: Ke Dong, Zhuoran Chen

Faculty Advisor: Yan Wang

Project Comment

Just a stunning combination of research, planning, and design. It effectively describes a problem and, in detail, presents a convincing solution that exemplifies the best of student work.

-2022 Awards Jury

Project Statement

The port of Tianjin, once the fifth largest port in the world, carried a huge volume of trade traffic. In 2015, a sudden explosion of hazardous chemicals in a warehouse shattered all prosperity. A large amount of brownfield soil from the explosion site needed to be contaminated. The loss of chemical components in the environment caused varying degrees of contamination and caused intense unease among the surrounding population. The hard-hit Tianjin citizens and firefighters desperately longed for a place to soothe their inner grief.

This proposal presents a comprehensive strategy from a multi-faceted need. Treat the explosion site as a cell growth dish. The solution concept and strategy design extracts two forces acting within the cell culture dish. The force of scattering from the center outward is used as the conceptual foothold, fitting the impact of the explosion from the center outward. The external inward extrusion growth force is used as a strategy to achieve the contamination decontamination of the site from the perspective of bioremediation.

Complete drawings and detailed design notes for the proposal can be found in the October issue of Landscape Architecture Magazine or on the website of ASLA at https://www.asla.org/.
