Sponge city – Qunli Storm water park


Sponge city – Qunli Storm water park
I have to said that the idea about the sponge city is really smart after reviewing the report of the project. From my opinions, the project – Qunli storm water park is kind of Sponge landscape – one of the elements from sponge city. The concept of Qunli storm water park keep well balance between green space and the city development. the function of park being sponging to observe the rainfall becomes the bond between the cities and green spaces. in term of the green space, the collected water is observed and restored by the park for ecosystem circulation, which not only reduces the possibility of flood after heavy rain, but also promotes the development of park ecosystem.
According to the sponge city theories by the Kongjian Yu, the concept about Sponge city is separated into three parts due to the different implement scale.


Large scale

In the large scale, the sponge system planning and sponge region planning focus on the spatial analysis of hydrology using natural ecological idea through establishing water- oriented ecological security pattern to protect the water for achieving the harmonious relationship between the public and water.

District planning scale
The scale of city development and city construction is the madhyamaka scale for the sponge city. In this scale, the sponge city strategy focuses on different aspects. Firstly, the concept of sponge city focuses on deciding the quality and its boundary. Then, clear and definite the relationship between sponge system and its surrounding areas. Thirdly, the concept makes rules for preservation and development. Moreover, according to local condition, it is important to make local guideline for the sponge city project.
