Analysis of climate impact on urban landscape design adaptation (Case study: Green Lake View, Depok, West Java)

Global climate change threatens the structure and function of the ecological and economical system of urban landscape. The urgent need to mitigate and provide an adaptable urban landscape to climate change is becoming more widely understood, since the urban landscape allows a liveable environment for the well-being of urban dwellers and acts as a significant role in providing habitat for wildlife. The aim of this paper is to point out which urban design will able to adapt and mitigate future climate change that is applicable to Green Lake View and other similar climate countries. This paper will firstly discuss the fundamental relationship between the urban landscape design and climate. Then, it will analyse which urban landscape design that are able to not only adapt but also mitigate the climate change, by focusing on five main aspects which are: water cycle, green infrastructure, material selection, sustainable drainage system and plant species selection. The different aspects that deal with different climate will then be evaluated to show the definite impact of the design. The result of this paper produced will be focusing on design recommendations within climate change and ways to mitigate and adapt throughout the years.
