Hussein, H. (2009) Therapeutic Intervention: Using Sensory Gardens to Enhance the Quality of Life for Children with Special Needs. Unpublished PhD thesis. Edinburgh College of Art.
Abstract
This study investigates the design and use of sensory gardens in two special
schools by evaluating their functional zones and how they are utilized,
especially by children with special educational needs, and the staff who care
for them. Preliminary site studies were undertaken in fourteen sensory
gardens around the UK, followed by more detailed data collection at two
case-study sites. The research aim was to find out the behaviour settings and
issues that are common in sensory gardens. The research data collection
included in-depth interviews, observation and behaviour mapping, which
was used in conjunction with affordance theory. Drawing on Moore and
Cosco’s methodology and approach (2007) in relation to inclusive parks, the
findings from the data analysis discuss the researcher’s main findings, based
on the two case-study sensory gardens. There are two main findings: Firstly,
the layout of the circulation network enables user behaviour and use of area.
Continuous pathways that link the sensory garden to the site context, with
easy access to the functional behaviour settings that are placed along it, have
the highest number of users. Secondly, users spent a longer time in zones
where sensory, rather than aesthetic value, were emphasised. These main
findings have been translated by the researcher into a subset of design
recommendations that will be applicable across the majority of sensory
gardens, and will assist landscape architects when they are designing
sensory gardens in the future.

Abstract
The study investigates and identifies the characteristics of some current waterfront developments, mainly focusing on rivers in urban areas. Study begins with an attempt to understand how early settlements were established along waterway systems, later forming the towns, leading to the present day cities and their inherent traditional urban culture value. In order to understand the cultural criteria of cities selected as precedence, much attention will be given to pay high respect to the cities`character. This is one of the waterfront revival imperatives in the future; to acknowledge the historical and cultural background of the city where they are set by scrutinising their characteristics. Certain chapters will be dedicated to the abandonment of downtown riverfront and their revitalisation into recreational landscape areas. Several subjects under scrutiny include riverfront redevelopments from South East Asia within Singapore and Sarawak in Malaysia. These examples will then be compared in parallel with their counterparts in London, England as well as in Boston, USA. Of interest will be the synthesis of these observations while deriving similarities between formations from different parts of the world. The conclusion of this study can be systematically analysed and used as a guideline for future development in Malaysia.

Carbon Abatement Module for UM Eco-Campus: Addressing urban heat island and climate change impact. May 2016-April 2017. Living Lab (LL21-16SUS)
Principal Investigator: Dr. Noor Suzaini Mohamed Zain
Co-researchers: Dr. Nik Elyna Myeda, Dr. Md. Hasanuzzaman, Professor Dr. Nasrudin, Dr. Sugumaran, Dr. Nurshuhada, Associate Professor Dr. Wang Chen, Dr. Hazreena Hussein.
Aim: To reduce UM`s climate change and urban heat island impact by generating clean renewable energy based power from solar photovoltaic systems, and increase campus carbon sequestration capacity through Vertical Greenery System.
Objectives: To address environmental sustainability by fitting in VGS onto built environment structures such as buildings and/or covered walkways/parking to oncrease carbon sequestration in the urban landscape, reduce UHI effect and consequently reduce energy needed for cooling load; to introduce carbon sequestration that will not only off-set some of the anthropogenic emissions, but it also imprives air quality and subsequently contributes to the physical and mental wellbeing of the urban population.
