| description | This paper introduces the new concept of “eco-fusion” through an exploratory case study
project. It suggests the importance of multi-scalar practice in the broader field of eco-urbanism.
This study introduces eco-fusion as a multiplexed paradigm, which is then discussed in two different
development models. This paper first highlights the position of “eco” in urbanism by providing a
brief account of key terms and how they relate to one another. It then points out the associations
between eco-fusion and sustainable urban development. Through an exploratory case study example
in China, the practical factors of eco-development are assessed. The study aims to provide
a set of intermediate development stages while maintaining each spatial level’s interface in their
own defined and distinguished contexts. The key objective is to consider integrating the natural
and built environments, which is considered the best practice of eco-development in urbanism.
This study’s findings highlight integrated methods in eco-urbanism and suggest new directions for
eco-planning/eco-design strategies. |
