Abstract
This research is an extension of the study on "Geographic Information in Analyzing the Site Potential for Planning the Faculty of Agriculture and Natural Resources, Rajamangala University of Technology Tawan-Ok, Bo Thong District, Chonburi Province." The main objective is to design landscape architecture of Bo Thong institution as a Green Campus, utilizing experimental results, discussion outcomes, and overall recommendations. Additionally, it involves synthesizing the area to design a schematic layout and creating appropriate alternative or detail designs and construction for future development.
The analysis of developing the 660 Rai Bo Thong Institute in the hilly plain area with abundant water resources, dense communities, and accessibility to roads, infrastructure and communication, allows for the classification of three zones: 1. Public Zone, 2. Semi-public Zone serving as an educational and service center, and 3. Private zone include recreational and residential Zone. Furthermore, the usable areas are divided into eight zones, with two additional connecting points. These designs propose a green educational institution (Green campus) with ten areas known as Zones A-J, including 1) Academic Area, 2) Administrative Building Area, 3) Staff Residence -Dormitory Area, 4) Commercial Area, 5) Sports and Recreational Area, 6) Conservation Area, 7) Agriculture Area, 8) Service and Maintenance Area, 9) Plaza/Landmark Area, and 10) Green Walkway.
Summarizing the analysis of requirements, attitudes, university image, and the green university (Green campus) concept, the proposed educational institution layout for Bo Thong can be summarized as follows: 1) Space improvement planning, 2) Community involvement, 3) Development of renewable energy utilization, 4) Reduction of wasteful resource usage, reuse, and recycling, 5) Knowledge development for the community, 6) Landscape development for tourism, 7) Resource management, disaster prevention, and mitigation through creative development. The crucial aspects to consider for the green institution (Green campus) are energy and climate change, infrastructure planning, transportation, waste management, research, and water resources.
Regarding the design and layout, there are two options presented for utilizing the land in the green campus : 1. Using the existing roads as main thoroughfares, and 2. Using the existing roads as green walkways (Green Way) and moving the road north of the project.
