Conceptual Urban Design of Central Plains Economic Region Administrative Service Zone

The overall plan of this area is designed from three aspects, including the radiation role of administrative services, culture as the original driving force for urban development and the shaping of eco-city. 

First, the radiation role of administrative services is mainly started from four strategies including functional integration, industrial docking, convenient transportation and regional core. Functional integration, that is, administrative, cultural, commercial and office functions are integrated on the basis of original functional layout, forming an enlarged core area with administration as the main body; industrial docking, that is, the functional layout of the service area docking with the surrounding groups to form an industrial zone with functional integration and clearly defined partitions so as to better play the role of the administrative core in this way of industrial passage; convenient transportation, transportation is the prerequisite for economic improvement, convenient and diverse forms of transportation will amplify the core radiation effect; regional core, through the integration of various levels of the region, the surrounding groups are closely linked together to form a comprehensive core area, thereby driving the rise of the Central Plains. 

Second, culture is the original driving force for the development of the city. It mainly starts from the four strategies including cultural texture, city evolution, implantation of logos and waterway connection. Cultural texture, with the attempt to combine the texture of traditional Chinese cities with contemporary urban functions to create a comprehensive and vibrant city with administrative functions as the core; city evolution, the original functions of the city walls has been transformed into sharing, open, equal city-level public space. Implantation of logos, implant large-scale buildings that reflect important urban functions in traditional urban structures, and use this to indicate the core of each functional area. Waterway connection, the water body is introduced into the city through the park, and large artificial lakes are thereby formed in the core area, and landscape cores of different nature are formed in different functional areas; 

Third, shaping of eco-city should start with the four strategies including ecological proportion, pastoral city, ecological energy and urban tourism. Ecological proportion, the ecological area accounts for about 40% of the total land use; pastoral city, the texture of two-story green city and natural ecological resources are used to realize the dream of pastoral city in the building complex; ecological energy, setting up renewable energy zones within the surrounding greenery scope; cities tourism, linking various scenic spots in series.
