Bringing Urban Historic Sites Back to Life Using Biophilic Design Strategies

Recalibrate Glasgow 拷贝.jpg

Glasgow Green is the oldest Victorian park in the heart of Scotland's largest city, Glasgow, opened to the public following the park movement of the 1830s out of a desire to improve health in the overcrowded conditions of the fast-growing industrial town. Victorian parks have also increasingly become a symbol of civic pride, offering residents and visitors an attractive setting for their leisure time. They also took on a social role as a place for improvement for the bottom of society.

The biophilic design strategy will address the existing problems of Glasgow green from the perspective of urban residents and biodiversity, linking their activity needs, sensory experience, natural interaction, cultural pride and other aspects to propose strategies for existing green spaces. The proposed strategy will enhance the experience and diversity of activities within the park, strengthen the connection between the park and its surrounding communities and residents, and the relationship between human and more than human. And gradually expand its influence to make the park a landmark of Glasgow to attract tourists and expand the cultural influence of the city. At the same time, a future management plan for the park is proposed to ensure its long-term role as an infrastructure. The park will acknowledge, explore and celebrate the many layers of human contact with the landscape and the site’s significance to the local citizens of Glasgow and the wider region. Victorian Park will serve as a gathering place for the public, a sensory playground, and a pillar of Glasgow's healthy, outdoor lifestyle, exciting and inspiring locals and visitors alike. It will be simple to get to and hard to leave. Neighbors will adopt it as their own, and tourists will want to come back for more. In order to achieve the unity of society, culture and ecology.
