Resilient Future: A Cultural Riverfront Edge in the New Capital, Amaravathi, in Andhra Pradesh, India

Malik , Priyanka 21 April 2016 (has links)
India faced the bifurcation of a united Andhra Pradesh state into the state of Telangana and state of Andhra Pradesh or Seemandhra, on 2nd June 2014. Since the year 1948, the city of Hyderabad remained the capitol of united Andhra Pradesh. However, post the bifurcation, the two states are required to share Hyderabad as their administrative capitol for ten years after which the city of Hyderabad will be the centre for the state of Telangana. The state of Andhra Pradesh is thus building a new capital Amaravathi, along the banks of Krishna River. The name of the capital is borrowed from an existing neighboring historic settlement with the hope to bring in a sense of pride associated with the settlement. The site for the new capital city is central to the entire state and can be easily connected to important cities within and outside Andhra Pradesh. However, the capital location is known for its long agricultural industry sustained by the availability of fertile soil and the presence of water from the river. The vision plan proposed by the government offers a bright future thriving on the idea of a smart city. The plan is dotted with high rises along the river, and grey infrastructure - a term used to describe man-made engineered systems - clearly defines the river flow specifically at the center of the newly planned city. The approved scheme by the government, promotes elite activities like golf course and luxury resort on the island by embanking the river. The government approved proposal ignores the agricultural past of the place; under plays the potential of retaining natural systems and the need to work with nature; and partially addresses the social and cultural aspect in the spatial description at the central water-front edge. The thesis chooses a site in the submitted plan by the government, where there is an indication of an engineered edge and a suggested public space. The proposed thesis project aims to develop strategies which can transform the engineered riverfront, shown in the government approved plan, into an ecologically resilient, social and cultural river bank. The scheme analysis the capital site's existing condition and agricultural past and demonstrates the use of socio-cultural landscape intervention to create a public landscape infrastructure which is in tune with the environment and sensitive to the natural systems. By developing strategies that root from the socio-cultural relationship with water, the proposed scheme tries to celebrate the cultural ties between humans and landscape.

Mass Incarceration by Design: The Impacts of Urban Renewal and Landscape Architecture's Absence on the Prison Industrial Complex and the Use of Landscape Architecture as an Antidote to Mass Incarceration

Phillips, Abigail P 10 May 2016 (has links)
The work of landscape architects has both positive and negative social impacts and landscape architects can strive to intentionally design for positive social impact. This paper utilizes mass incarceration as a lens for discussing the social impact of landscape architecture. The crossroads of mass incarceration and design offer a unique opportunity for Landscape Architects to examine the impact of many urban renewal efforts on marginalized communities, the benefits of landscape architectural involvement in prison design, and the use of design as protest against inhumane structures. This paper is separated into three sections, one detailing the history of social justice and injustice in landscape architecture, one explaining how mass incarceration developed and what landscape architects can do to respond to it and another detailing The Solitary Gardens in New Orleans, a landscape-based project that advocates against the use of solitary confinement and mass incarceration through collaborative design with incarcerated people. This research suggests that Landscape Architects can combat mass incarceration in a variety of ways: through collaboration with marginalized groups when designing urban spaces, through reformative prison landscape design, through work with ex-offenders and by lobbying against the use of inhumane designs. These findings beg further research into whether it is more appropriate for designers to lead socially progressive pursuits or respond to popular movements, what the best practices for navigating between marginalized and empowered stakeholders are, what the economic feasibility of social impact design as a profession is and how to prove the mental and physical benefits of inmates with access to green infrastructure.

Creating Sustainable Future of a Degraded Urban Canal: Mae Kha, in Chiang Mai, Thailand

Nuanla-Or, Sunantana 12 May 2016 (has links)
Chiang Mai is the largest and the most significant city in the Northern region of Thailand. It was established in 1296 as the capital of Lanna Kingdom. Since then, the city is famous for its exquisite authentic Northern culture, essential trading routes, an abundance of natural places, and agriculture derived along the Ping River as well as a functional canal system in the city. In the past few decade, uncontrolled and unplanned urban development, deforestation, and the lack of public awareness have caused landscape degradation in the city. Consequently, Chiang Mai has faced several serious environmental problems such as congestion, pollution, inadequate green spaces, and the haunting memory of the inundating catastrophe in 2010. Mae Kha Canal is one of the most important features in Chiang Mai's water system that nourishes local agriculture, irrigation, and transportation. Fresh pure water originates from the mountain adjacent to the West of Chiang Mai city flowing through the city to the Ping River in the South. Unfortunately, since the unregulated growth of urbanization, the canal has suffered with massive amounts of pollution. As the result, the city has turned its back on the canal, making it a dumping site. Moreover, the problem has existed for a long time, resulting in extensive sewerage and garbage piling up in the canal. About two thousand households nearby have added the severity. Some of them have taken over the canal banks, shrunken the canal and piled it up with sediment and garbage. Recently, after the significant flood in Chiang Mai, 2010, people had started to promote the essential role of Mae Kha Canal by establishing a campaign to bring back the precious abundance of the Ping River. However, the process takes time, budget, and well-distributed responsibilities from communities, and organizations to achieve the revitalization of Mae Kah Canal. What will be the future of the canal? How do we bring Mae Kha Canal back to life? This thesis studied ecological and sustainable approaches to revitalize the water system using intensive site analysis and site planning for effective design strategies.
