Research on the classification and feature of urban streets from the perspective of landscape architecture——Based on the case of phase II project in Qujiang,Xi′an

Classification of urban streets is the basis of planning and designing the urban road landscape and it is an important prerequisite for the evaluation and promotion of the wayside landscape.There are two methods about the classification of urban streets: its road level and its function of use.But for designing street landscape,the object of study is the area above the road edge stone and outside the buildings along the street.The research perspective is not on the road form and its width.The first two methods cannot satisfy its requirements.So this paper is based on the first two methods,and fully combines the factors which can influence the landscape design,like the usage of both sides of the road,the specific function of the road,and people's activities,etc.It tries to construct a new classification system,that can completely meet its requirements for street landscape design.
