• The role of landscape architecture only involve after the layout has been done (Abdullah et. al., 2001 ) • Inappropriate zoning and design of open space which caused less social activities • Open space Leftover space

9/19 RESEARCH DESIGN
Landscape + = GOOD LANDSCAPE Urban PLANNING Planning
Antrop (2001) Good landscape planning: •Both planner and landscape architect consider the area being planned as a system. •Area design as a system; considering the connectedness and interrelatedness of the area. Young (1974)

Findings and Discussion
Conclusion
11/19 METHODOLOGY
Author Theory Lyle (1985) For landscaping, emphasize that location is an important component and the design must be like a system. Hall (1990) Functionalism of landscape is an important motivating idea for landscape planning. Functionalism of landscape is how the components fit together in part-whole relationships. Hobbs (1997) Explain the component of structure, function and change in details
12/19 METHODOLOGY
FUNCTION Size of open space Population Distance How to create a Aesthetic Attractiveness Well-equip functional open space? Well-maintain
STRUCTURE Pedestrian path Connecting elements How to arrange the Green linkages overall landuses? Residential and surrounding landuses LANDUSE Zoning How to locate the Distance Distance open space? Appropriate Items zoning of open space Variables & Items: Urban Planning
13/19 METHODOLOGY
FUNCTION Landscape Active open space How to create a characteristics Passive open space functional open preferences Division space? Parking area Trees
STRUCTURE How the open Connecting elements Pedestrian path space could be Green linkages connected to the neighbourhood Items area? How the element of open space itself can connect Variables & Items: Landscape Architecture to each other?
14/19 FINDINGS & DISCUSSION
Aesthetic Landuse Extension of Extension of x Ecological needs knowledge of x Sustainability knowledge of UP practices LA practices Public welfare x Long term issues Comfort and pleasure
x Exposure of LA/UP knowledge by UP/LA during bachelor education
Consultation between UP/LA and LA/UP during work in general
“LA/UP should aware with UP/LA preferences” LA should involve from the early stage of Landscape Urban Planner planning Architect “Today`s open space in neighbourhoods did not meet the requirements..”
15/19 FINDINGS & DISCUSSION
Criteria for urban landscape
Contact with nature Aesthetic preferences x Recreation and play Social interaction x x Well maintain and secure x
Criteria to ensure the open space connected to the neighbourhood
Appropriate distance Landscape Urban Planner Pedestrian path Architect Appropriate size with population

Summary of overall findings
• Planning Guidelines for Open Space and Recreational Area (2013) • Guidelines for National Landscape Edition 2 (2008)
17/19 PRACTICAL IMPLICATION
Knowledge Integration

Development planning process Urban planners and landscape can be amend by allowing architects should be familiar with landscape architects to be each other’s` roles (educate both involved since the beginning of professions). the process.
