Tunghai University-News--Students of Department of Landscape Architecture Won Frist Place in Landscape Design Competition
In the first-round evaluation, twelve submissions were marked for the Award for Excellent, six of which proceeded onto the second stage of the competition, in which the nominated teams had to either construct a physical model or produce a conceptual video for their design. Eventually, the first place went to “Eat The Fruits, Praise The Trees,” designed by Tungahi students Jia-Yu Lai and Yi-Juin Lin, who participated under the supervision of Chun-Wei Tsou and Shian-Po Liao, both assistant professors of the Tunghai Department of Landscape Architecture. The mayor of Taichung, Chia-Lung Lin, personally delivered the award certificates and NT$50,000 prize to the students. Afterwards, the students gave a presentation about their design and received media interviews.
The purpose of education of the Department of Landscape Architecture of Tunghai University, from undergraduate to graduate schools, emphasizes on the equality of theory and practices. The awarded students are currently first-year students in the master’s degrees program. Under the professors’ supervision, they ponder deeply into the subject, combining their personal environmental observations and residents interviews to integrate local affections, humanities, and industrial characteristics with the urban waterway design. The theme of the design, “Eat The Fruits, Praise The Trees,” indicates a sense of thankfulness towards nature. Inspired by many local temples of the God of Lands as well as the Huludun Waterway─or rather, Fengyuan’s mother river─their design aims to bring back the original beauty of Huludun, promote natural sustainability, and build a water-friendly recreational area.
The three best designs of this competition will be taken as references by the Taichung City Government to re-design the Huludun Waterway. For the construction of this urban reformation plan, a budget of 1.05 billion NT dollars has been allocated. It will definitely refresh the urban view of downtown Fengyuan. Formerly a water source of agricultural irrigation in Fengyuan, the Huludun Waterway has been covered and constructed into marketplaces and parking lots due to urbanization demands more than thirty years ago.
