Design and practice of campus green space renovation from the perspective of horticultural therapy: taking Taoyuan Building green space at Shanghai Normal University Fengxian Campus as an example

This paper integrates horticultural therapy and campus green space design, aiming to meet the physical and mental health needs of college students. Taking the Plant Germplasm Resources Development Center in Fengxian Campus of Shanghai Normal University as the renovation object, and relying on the characteristics of Taoyuan Building, through the comprehensive planning and detailed design of five plots, such as the optimization of flow lines, functional nodes, ecological purification, lighting art and healing landscape ornaments, the "Lingxi Flower Stream" and other characteristic spaces have been created, successfully practicing a horticultural and therapeutic campus green space. This study not only enriches the theoretical application of horticultural therapy in campus greening, but also proves its significant promoting effect on the ecological environment optimization and students' physical and mental health through practice, which provides a new perspective and empirical reference for the combined design of campus greening and horticultural therapy, and promotes the development of green campus to a deeper level.
