Study Of Sustainable Urban Residential Community Environmental Eco-design

Starting with one urgent problems related to the eco-city construction, residential environment construction, this paper seriously researches and summaries eco-design principles and measures. These measures were used in the design of pilot demonstration project-WenLing eco-district, in which some pilot research about using eco-design in actual construction project was actively done. The results are as follows:For the environmental design of human settlements in urban areas, based on the structure of urban residential areas, this study associates, the types of land-use, facilities, space and landscape in traditional planning and design of residential structures with patches, corridors and matrices in landscape ecology, so the relationships among mass flux, energy flow and the structures of ecosystems in ecology and designs of residential structures have been established, and the environmental aspects have been combined into designs of residential areas. Finally, a complete scheme of expression of exact engineering mapping that is necessary for ecological design of human settlements has been presented.The new idea and design measure have brought forward about designing diversified projects for urban human settlement environment, especially for example green space, rain water use, water sight and cleaning water, waster water treatment and reuse, and energy system et al. The guideline system that appraises ecological human settlement has been summarized and drew about design target for urban human settlement.In the design of pilot project, WenLing eco-district, based on the local actual conditions and available techniques and economic situation, Some aspects were designed carefully, including land use, green space, building design, building materials, water resource system, wastewater treatment and reuse system, energy system, transportation system, solid waste treatment and so on. In the scheme, landscape effects, local and cultural characteristics were considered.Eco-design is a kind of complicated and accurate design measure and its working objects vary widely. Thereby it is not possible to establish a set of standard measure that can be used everywhere. Eco-design is a kind of design idea and principle, it integrates ecological idea into design scheme by the designer's creative design work. The object of making eco-design for residential environment in urban area is constructing healthy, convenient, comfortable, safe and beautiful residential environment and providing good infrastructure for the formation of community culture that should be vigorous and civilized, while protecting and sustaining natural ecosystem. Ecological principle is integrated into the design scheme of this district according to the economic and technological feasibility. In the design of WenLing eco-district, some explorations for the measure designing urban residential district with ecological rationality were made. This scheme can be used as pilot case and design base for new eco-district design.
