The pollution is becoming more and more serious. In order to protect the environment on which we live, "garbage classification" has been popularized in various places recently. We can't imagine the environmental pollution in many places where we can't see it. For example, Ulanhada Volcanic Grassland in Inner Mongolia, with its unique grassland+volcano view, it has always been a popular tourist destination in China, but in recent years, it has been faced with excessive exploitation, There are more signs of man-made destruction, and the problem of grassland desertification is becoming more and more serious. Simple planting and flow restriction are far from solving the problem of ecological imbalance. This time, we would like to invite you to do something important. The interdisciplinary portfolio counseling project, the volcanic practice, labels the portfolio "globalization strategy"!


 Interdisciplinary Portfolio Counseling Project

"South refining furnace" volcano


A practical project for tutoring interdisciplinary works on volcanoes


We need your creativity to declare war on the desert with a complete set of planning and design scheme! 1 cross professional, multi team, 4-week gathering; One teaching experiment integrating landscape, planning, interaction and vision; Experience the collision of inspiration brought by extreme natural terrain, and complete the most competitive complete portfolio project!


Project background:


The project is located in the north of Baiyinchagan Town, Chahar Right Wing Back Banner, Ulanqab City, including Ulanhada Geopark and surrounding areas, with a total area of about 69 square kilometers. There are more than 30 volcanoes in this area like beads distributed on the grassland, and the flat terrain makes the perfect posture of volcanoes show.

However, in recent years, with the involvement of a large number of tourists, grassland desertification and other problems, the ecological environment has been greatly affected. From the information obtained so far, the volcanic grassland within the red line has been significantly degraded compared with years ago. For example, the average height of grass has been greatly reduced, and the number of tourists continues to increase due to the emergence of disaster indicator species such as chamaejasme, The local herdsmen have no good control over the livestock carrying capacity of the grassland.

In order to avoid further deterioration of the ecological environment, a complete set of planning and design as well as later maintenance and management plan is urgently needed, which is also the ultimate goal of this course. Natural light will gather students to experience the design inspiration brought by natural terrain different from urban hard ground in the relationship between space and scale under the guidance of professional teachers by integrating the wisdom of landscape, planning, interaction, visual design and other disciplines through field landing project research, and try the important guiding significance of real site conditions on design results.


Project highlights:


   Multi dimensional and interdisciplinary project implementation experience


The 4-week intensive courses will also provide students with the best opportunity to comprehensively improve and hone their skills. In the early stage of the interdisciplinary portfolio coaching project, we will conduct field survey and measurement through field survey of the Uhada Volcano Geopark and surrounding areas to understand the project needs in detail.


 Natural light interdisciplinary practice project

Each link of the course is carried out in the form of a small team. Students experience the collision of various professional ideas in the brainstorming, give full play to their creativity, and complete high-quality design solutions for the most perfect design needs.


In cross professional team cooperation, we will spread design thinking and creativity, combine with practical basic humanities and skills courses, and give students a comprehensive project landing experience from multiple dimensions of "humanities", "thinking", "skills" and "practice", interdisciplinary.


   Project practice of global sustainable development strategy


The project will be guided by the 17 sustainable development directions proposed by the United Nations, select environmentally friendly materials with good adaptability and meeting design requirements for complex local terrain and climate, and develop the most perfect planning design and later maintenance management scheme;


Under the premise of strict protection of resources and environment, give full play to the design ability and team plan making ability. The design results cover actual commercial projects, cultural tourism projects, and ecological concept projects. The ultimate goal of the project is to achieve the comprehensive benefits of ecology, culture, society, and economy!


   The most competitive interdisciplinary portfolio coaching project


Field survey of large landing project site, dealing with various problems caused by complex terrain and harsh natural conditions, integrating knowledge and design concepts of planning, urban design and landscape, and completing the most in-depth portfolio project;


The curriculum model is in line with the foreign education model, interdisciplinary combination with the curriculum form of studio, regular reporting of phased achievements, and the design task is required to be completed efficiently and on schedule;


The theme fits in with international hot topics, the background research is more perfect, the design results span multiple disciplines, the drawings are more expressive, and a complete set of high-quality projects is collected.


   Comprehensive promotion projects corresponding to overseas art colleges


This project, as the topic of the collection of works, has the characteristics of sociality, experimentation and conceptualization, and these characteristics are the inspection points that overseas art schools attach most importance to.

In addition, after the completion of the project, all students can also receive a certificate of completion of the project issued by the natural light joint partner, and excellent works have the opportunity to get the actual commercial landing opportunity and a large amount of bonus. The achievements of these projects are more valuable opportunities for background improvement and practice, and are the best cases for us to show our comprehensive ability to target colleges.


   Long term transmission of natural light public welfare projects


Natural light has always been committed to public welfare and environmental protection. Whether it was the previous 3 consecutive years of summer design and construction workshops, from the shelter 1.0 and the shelter 2.0 to this year's STUDIO Dooo, natural light has always led students to use the wisdom of different disciplines to challenge public welfare construction projects based on nature and rural context.


 Interdisciplinary Portfolio Counseling Project

Shelter 1.0&Shelter 2.0/Natural Light&Wood Garden


In addition, it also includes Zhaojue County Public Welfare Library, Xinyun Public Welfare Library, Natural Light x PETA Asia and other substantive public welfare projects to help many students use design to give back to society. Natural light has always hoped to guide students with practical actions to bring the eternal topic of public welfare to all aspects of work and life.
