Concept development master plan

Project Description:

Located in the southern tropical island Province of Hainan (the southeastern coast of China), Haikou City is the political, economic, and cultural center of this land mass. With the expressed goal of developing Hainan Province into the Chinese national four-season garden and people’s holiday resort, Haikou has a unique opportunity to become an ecological showcase. While Haikou has seen tremendous growth, the growth at times seems unplanned, unfinished, or unsuccessful.

The concept development master plan outlines a framework which Haikou could successfully implement to achieve a smart growth strategy. The physical and natural resources are in place, which if properly harnessed, could make Haikou a world famous, green international resort and metropolis.

Key to the master plan concept is the preservation of existing resources and amenities, and a call to re-evaluate previous city wide development plans and patterns. This questioning of the future city’s direction is paramount to insure an appropriate development vision, one which balances economic interests with the natural features which make Haikou unique.

海口西海岸规划
中国, 海口
2003-2004


客户:       
海口市政府

项目数据:   
26.2 公里海岸线

项目介绍:
位于中国南部热带岛屿(中国东南沿海)海南省,海口市是这一大片土地的政治,经济,和文化中心。随着快速地将海南发展成为中国的四季花园和人的度假胜地的目标,海口市拥有得天独厚的机会成为生态展示中心。虽然海口已经见证了巨大的增长,但是与时俱进的增长似乎显得无计划,未完成,或是不成功。

总体发展规划的概念是勾勒出一个海口可以成功实施,实现智能增长战略的架构。拥有无可比拟的地理和自然资源,如果把握得当,可以使海口市成为世界著名的,绿色国际旅游度假区和国际化大都市。  

总体规划概念的核心是保存当地现有的资源和设施,并呼吁重新评估以前的城市大开发发展计划和模式。这是对既定的城市未来的发展方向提出的质疑,以确保一个适当的发展远景,使海口的独特自然特征与其经济发展之间获得平衡。
