Abstract:

Regarded reuse of Chinese old urban riverside was taken as research object, and the difference between normal design and ecology compensatory design of riverside old zone was compared. According to the large numbers of internal and external empirical researches and methods of contrast and analysis, Three strategies about the ecology compensatory design of riverside old zone was put forward as following: First, beforehand measure of the river ecological compensation including the use of engineering measures to compensate the natural morphology of the river channel, stratification to compensate riparian buffer morphology zones, natural prototype embankment to compensate riparian habitat, biological conservation measures to compensate wetland systems of river channel; Second, compensation for riparian old historical context including protection for historical relics buildings and dynamic function replacement, “Facadism” protection for the traditional old building, compensation for the local customs; Third, supplement to the road traffic facilities. In a word, the application of ecological compensation design strategy may reduce the interference to environment in a maximum degree, and provide a fire-new thoughts for landscape design．
