Reconstruction after “5.12” Earthquake -Landscape Design of Make-Shift Houses in Leigu Town of Beichuan County
Leigu Town is located in Beichuan Qiang minority Autonomous County, Mianyang City, Sichuan Province, which is the gate to Anxian and Mianyang before “5.12” earthquake. But the disaster has left Leigu Town a total ruins---90% houses have collapsed, more than 4,500 houses have been destroyed and almost all the municipal infrastructure have been ruined. So more than 7,000 temporary sample houses were built there to house those residents, thus more than 10,000 survivors owed a temporary shelter. Now permanent buildings have been constructed one after another in the demonstration community. In order to glorify Leigu Town ----“a hidden pearl in deep mountain”, the designer integrates Qiang minority culture and practical situation to fulfill the goal.
