Abstract

After reviewing the relevant literature on green campus, this study has analyzed the current design practice. It shows that there are shortcomings in the green campus design strategies for the outdoor physical environment. There are three aspects in the shortcomings: (1) the site planning, (2) the layout of buildings and micro-climate, and (3) the outdoor landscape and environment. This study recommends the following method be implemented so as to improve the design of the green campus outdoor physical environment. There are three parts in the method. First, the landscape system planning is the priority, that is to say, it is the terrain and hydrology and not the traditional man-made space forms that govern the planning structure and the overall plan. Second, use a computer simulation software set to optimize the layout of the buildings. Third, optimize the design of the walking space around the buildings so as to make the users feel more comfortable.
