Hybrid Modernity: late 20th century landmark parks in China
This research investigates new spatial forms that have emerged in
China's urban landmark parks in secondary cities of the post -Mao era. These
forms represent a new stage in China's history of landscape architecture. As
design history and innovative design inquiry, a qualitative approach is
employed and it draws from:
- modernization theory: a framework for understanding transformation
in post -Mao China
- post -Mao China socio -cultural analysis: changing Chinese identity,
nationalism and trends in the arts and architecture
- design analysis and history of China's garden /park traditions and the
larger context of the evolution of modern landscape architecture in
China
- analysis of international design trends in contemporary landscape
architecture
analysis of China's changing institutional context: education and
development of the landscape architecture profession.
In this research, I asked: has the fusion of international influences with
the local Chinese design vocabulary in late 20th century China created a
distinctive approach to public park design that is novel? If so, how has this
taken place, and what does it mean for landscape architecture in China?
Case studies provide a focused empirical setting to understand the
new design paradigms and they create the foundation for a theory I call
hybrid modernization. The study breaks new ground as the first
documentation and analysis of the emergence of modern landscape
architecture in twentieth century China. It creates a bridge between the
literature in China and the west; and it contributes to closing the gap on the
history of modern landscape architecture in China
