21. The visual appearance and attractiveness of towns
and cities is strongly influenced by its green space.
A high quality built environment, the
buildings, roads and public spaces, cannot alone
ensure that a town or city is an attractive and
appealing place to live and work. The landscape of
parks and green space contribute as much to the
quality
of the urban environment as good
architecture.
Why Green Landscape is
Important?
Having an even balance to hardscapes and
landscapes can create the best of both worlds.

22. Encourage positive impression that
is good place to study ,work and live.
Attract the interest of visitors
The image and
attractiveness of Taylor’s

perceptions of a place.

People's Opinions (Strengths)
Majority of the students - greenery view of the roundabout area – comfortable
- breath in fresh air - morning.

34. Strengths
•Roundabouts were built to save cost and save space.
•Roundabouts were built there because it were nearest to Admission
Centre and Boardwalk.
•R oundabout area serve as main entrance.
•Plant taller plants to cover the imperfect.

35. Weaknesses
•No corridor between guard house to campus
•Skylight of corridor is transparent.
•The narrow vehicle path will lead to traffic congestion during
the peak hour.
•The smaller roundabout with fountain is plain.

36. Opportunities
• Build corridor between campus to guard house
• Open another drop off and pick up session near by
the academic block
• Extend the skylight of corridor and apply 70 % sun
block on the skylight

37. Threats
•The amount of cars increase gradually year by year -- busy
& heavy traffic congestion.
•The wind will carry the rain into the skylight corridor --
shelter provided is useless during the heavy rain.
•Student who cannot find a parking lot will just simply park
their car at clamping zone, thus it blocked part of the road
and causes traffic jam
