A figureground map was developed for the city of Luzhou. You can see how the city forms through the building layout. The city makes use of the river and builds around it. The river has contributed to most of the success in Luzhou as it is the main point of access through to the western part of Sichuan.
Figureground Map
Nolli Map
The nolli map shows the area of focus that we chose. This area was one of the most interesting areas in the city as it had both a historical landmark and had one of the biggest main streets in Luzhou. By analysing this area, we can see how luzhou has structured its city to the way it is, and how it made use of historical landmarks as a foundation for their building process.
Functional Analysis
It can be clearly seen that Luzhou has been split into 2 major districts by the river. The residential buildings are spread throughout the whole city of luzhou, however you can see that they all have access to a nearby school or hospital in their district. They have developed the city so that all the industrial work is done mostly outside of the main city, as can be seen on the map.
Historical Analysis
The main expansions on Luzhou are also
based off the historical relics and landmarks that can be found throughout
Luzhou. The Pagoda is the foundation to the city of
Luzhou. In our analysis of the history, we found that the Pagoda is the
beginning of the city expansion. As you can see on the map, the darkest red
area is where the Pagoda is located. The building process continued to follow through around the river, as it was the primary use for transportation back in the days.
