Glasgow [City view]
-Field study trip(Focus week) 03-05.MAR.2009

One of interesting features of Glasgow city was that the city centre looks like pedestrian’s paradise.
In face, there is main street called "Buchanan street"and it is always opened for only pedestrian so the street has unique landscape among various shops and buildings on the hill and also can have dynamic views and momement of people. I think it makes the city centre looks more lively and active.
Design on public furniture and pattern&materials of street were different from one in London, especially, I could see specific material that seems to be sand stone or something like that for buildings and street in Glasgow centre during the trip. Therefore, I have had a great visit to see similar and different views of the city in Scotland I can compare with London's.

This flash file is about Children's play and my concept is sound. It was a first time to use flash to present my project and I have found it is very interesting and nice to do with children's play and this conceptional work.

Animation(Audi Q5 commercial)



This animation may a good example with useful imformation to show a process of modelling on landscape architecture project. I have found this commercial on TV and thought that it can be a good idea to apply this way on my project,especially ,about modelling in the future even though it is a commercial for car selling.

Moving image(Perspective drawing)



This moving image is a part of Proposal in Wey&Arun Restoration project and I made this perspective drawing with moving people to show effectively and simply my proposal in future with people. Moving image as perspective drawing is useful to help audience to understand how my idea works in a real site and what it looks like on a presentation.

‘’If your town doesn’t have a skate park , it is a skate park’’
-Susan Hines LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE MAGAZINE, MARCH 2008
Teens space is needed especially in cities. There may be places everywhere in a city in the future if there is not a specific space for teenagers and, the period of teens is to identify and develope class, gender, race, ethnicity, geography and sexual orientation between childhood and adulthood. I think places for teenagers and by teens are important in various reasons, therefore, I have looked specific sites about that during PROJECT RESEARCH in module 'Street'.
