  • A Dimensional Comparison Between Classical Chinese Gardens And
    Yiwen Xu, Jon Bryan Burley, WSEAS TRANSACTIONS on ENVIRONMENT and DEVELOPMENT Patricia Machemer, April Allen A Dimensional Comparison between Classical Chinese Gardens and Modern Chinese Gardens YIWEN XU, JON BRYAN BURLEY, PATRICIA MACHEMER, AND APRIL ALLEN School of Planning, Design and Construction Michigan State University 552 West Circle Drive, 302 B Human Ecology Building, East Lansing, MI 48824, USA [email protected] http:/www.msu.edu/%7Eburleyj/ Abstract: Garden designers and scholars are interested in metrics that define the differences and similarities between traditional design and modern designs. This investigation examines the similarities and differences of classical Chinese gardens and modern Chinese gardens. The comparison is accomplished by ordinating the design elements and basic normative planning and design principles for each garden. Three classical Chinese gardens in Suzhou, Jiangsu, China and five modern gardens in Xiamen, Fujian, China were selected for study. A mathematical method called Principal Component Analysis (PCS) was applied in this research. The objective of this method is to define the dimensions that characterize the gardens and plot these gardens along the dimensions/gradients. Seventy-five variables were selected from a literature review, site visits, and site photos. According to the results of the PCA, there are potentially seven meaningful dimensions suitable for analysis, which explain 100% of the variance. This research focused on studying the first three principal components, explaining 81.54% of the variance. The first two principal components reveal a clear pattern between the two sets of environments. The results indicate that the first principal component can be a way to identify the difference between classical Chinese gardens and modern Chinese gardens.

  • Garden and Park Structures Listing Selection Guide Summary
    Garden and Park Structures Listing Selection Guide Summary Historic England’s twenty listing selection guides help to define which historic buildings are likely to meet the relevant tests for national designation and be included on the National Heritage List for England. Listing has been in place since 1947 and operates under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. If a building is felt to meet the necessary standards, it is added to the List. This decision is taken by the Government’s Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS). These selection guides were originally produced by English Heritage in 2011: slightly revised versions are now being published by its successor body, Historic England. The DCMS‘ Principles of Selection for Listing Buildings set out the over-arching criteria of special architectural or historic interest required for listing and the guides provide more detail of relevant considerations for determining such interest for particular building types. See https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/principles-of- selection-for-listing-buildings. Each guide falls into two halves. The first defines the types of structures included in it, before going on to give a brisk overview of their characteristics and how these developed through time, with notice of the main architects and representative examples of buildings. The second half of the guide sets out the particular tests in terms of its architectural or historic interest a building has to meet if it is to be listed. A select bibliography gives suggestions for further reading. This guide looks at buildings and other structures found in gardens, parks and indeed designed landscapes of all types from the Middle Ages to the twentieth century.

  • Serenity Pervades a Chinese Garden of the Ming Dynasty, for This Is a Place of Retreat from the Doings of Humankind
    Serenity pervades a Chinese garden of the Ming dynasty, for this is a place of retreat from the doings of humankind. It is where the functionary of the kingdom could indulge his "longing for mountains and water" without turning his back on his unrelenting obligations to state and family. Yet serenity is only the first of infinite layers that reveal themselves. The object of the garden is to capture all the elements of the natural landscape--mountains, rivers, lakes, trees, valleys, hills--and, by bringing them together in a small space, to concentrate the life force, the qi, that animates them. It is a harmony of contrasts, of dark and light, solid and empty, hard and soft, straight and undulating, yin and yang. This place was created to be savoured ever a lifetime. New meanings would be found in the symbolic objects and plants, new pictures seen as shadows placed across the rocks. The garden unfolded itself slowly. In this site, the Garden comes to life. The Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden in Vancouver, British Columbia is the only full-sized classical Chinese garden outside China and though it was built in the 1980s, it employed the ancient techniques of the originals. For the architect, the botanist, the student of history, the lover of beauty, this site provides insights into the subtle wonders to be found within the walls of this living treasure. A Walk Through the Garden The Garden's Layers of Meaning Originally designed by Taoist poets, classical gardens were meant to create an atmosphere of tranquility for contemplation and inspiration.

  • A Synopsis of the Culture of Chinese Gardens..Pdf
    A Synopsis of the Culture of Chinese Gardens Prepared by Malcolm Wong – Chairman of the Dunedin Chinese Gardens Trust (February 2009) Introduction In his book Yuan Ye, which was completed in 1634, Ji Cheng wrote that although the garden is made with the hand of man it must look as though it was made in heaven. To fully understand the concept of the Chinese garden is to understand how the Chinese view the universe. This may seem a bold statement but over two thousand years of history gives it some credence. What then makes this so and why have Chinese gardens so fascinated the West? When did this fascination begin and why can’t these Gardens be recreated by western gardeners? In the 1920’s an educated Chinese gentlemen, on visiting Europe, commented when shown a “mown and bordered lawn which, while no doubt would be of interest to a cow, offers no interest to human beings”. Therein lies the fundamental difference in gardening between East and West. Chinese build gardens whereas the West plant gardens. However, if the difference was as simple as that to master, Chinese gardens would have been replicated with ease by the great western landscape architects. The fascination by the West of things Chinese began on the eve of 1699 when the Court of France held a Chinese festival to commemorate the coming new year. The term “chinoiserie” was coined at this time and so began the West’s great desire for all things Chinese. This interest included porcelain, artwork, furniture and ceramics and then extended to gardening.
