Abstract

With the rapid development of China’s modern landscape design, high-speed growth of China’s economy as well as the accelerating process of urbanization, people have become more eager to improve the living environment, which makes the landscape design an essential part of modern design. Since China’s economy and culture are increasingly integrated with the world, Chinese people have recognized the importance of traditional culture under impact of today’s diverse cultures, and their focus on the aesthetic appreciation and design of modern landscape has gradually shifted from the Western landscape system to the landscape design reflecting traditional culture connotation. Therefore, the traditional Chinese garden making techniques have been gradually accepted by the public, also awakening and national pride and self confidence in memory. The Chinese traditional techniques have been tentatively used in the design of a large number of modern landscape architectures. Even with different final effects, it’s an attempt to follow the Chinese traditional gardening style with poetic imagery beauty after all. In this paper, the analysis has been conducted from three aspects including the connotation and definition of landscape, the cultural connotation of poetic imagery of Chinese gardens and the specific application of poetic imagery beauty in landscape, thereby presenting some feasible methods for how to integrate Chinese traditional poetic imagery beauty sympathetically into modern landscape design and to create the sense of beauty.
