cities are global coherence made of the juxtaposition and combinations of urban systems expressing respective periods, problems, programs, techniques and culture, though always connected with the context.

In Lijiang old town, we do not observe sequences but rather the evolution of a pattern made by repetitive rules successively applied by individual builders.
the challenge to build near the old town is to realize an extension which would neither be a pastiche nor a rupture which would only raise the city-museum aspect of the historic part.
.

the project proposes a flexible mikado pattern on a 30m grid composed of :

  • node buildings on the grid intersection (vertical circulation and technics).

  • bridges building sat between the node building on the second floor.

  • flexible implantation buildings sat under the bridges for the design of the urban spaces and the combination with other building allowing to build in the courtyard according the need of deep surfaces.

On a triangular area delimited by communal and deprtemental roads, "chemin des Roches" and "route de Berne", the context growths quickly since an EcoWaterPole and the M2 subway station were built nearby.
The study investigates the possibilities to realize a neighborood plan, to maximize the building possibilities for the whole or parts of the zone according the interests. Overall the studies target to avoid the lost of eventual opportunities and to protect the plot owner's interest .

this folder introduces 4 variations for a counterproject demonstrating the following:

  • the density can be raised by 15-20%

  • the view on the listed trees can be maintained

  • the COS can be reduced by half

  • a green zone can be created

  • the historically protected "maisonRonde" is enhanced

  • the view from the plots 7315 & 7316 is preserved

  • active-passive solar energies remain possible as 7315 &7316 would avoid any shadows (direct and indirect sunshine).

  • The proposal for development of the Jinbo golden coast is concentrated in 2 main areas in order to maintain the rest of the coast in a natural state with some existing villages.

  • The South part would be built near the planned airport extending the existing city as an island in the bay targeting the development of naval transportation.

  • The North part is taking the existing structure of salt mine fields and roads network as a starting point to develop a marina.

territory, city, project

the territory originally selected for the edification of the city contains from his topography, the scheme of a radio concentric city.

from the old town built around the hill, the old castle and the central place, the city pattern extends toward its first artificial limit: the railway.

the problematic consists to discover or to create in the area between the railway and the river, the potential generator of the spatial and formal city continuity.

the primary elements preeminence forms, from the antiquity to our days demonstrate the practical and semantic easiness to read the institutions that make the city.

the intervention made of the extension of the main street «avenue de la Gare» the project realize the unification of the city with its boundary, the river.
