I so appreciate projects like this where you only need to see one picture to know what it's all about. The award winning Red Ribbon Tanghe River Park in Qinhuangdao City, China is an explicit and very functional answer to questions of preserving natural habitats as well as creating new recreational values in this quickly developing area. The ribbon structure is 500 meters long and combines functions as seating, lighting and orientation. By Turenscape and Peking University Graduate School of Landscape Architecture in Beijing, China.
