Analysis on Integrating Hainan Regional Cultural Elements into Landscape Plant Configuration Design
Against the backdrop of ecological civilization construction and high-quality development in Hainan Free Trade Port, landscape plant configuration has evolved from simple scenic design to an integrated design model that synergizes ecological, regional, cultural, and functional aspects. As China's only tropical island province, Hainan boasts unique cultural elements including Li and Miao ethnic traditions, maritime heritage, Nanyang overseas Chinese communities, Su Dongpo cultural legacy, volcanic geology, and tropical ecosystems. Scientifically and artistically incorporating these regional cultural elements into landscape design serves dual purposes: enhancing Hainan's urban identity and preserving indigenous culture, while enriching landscape aesthetics and driving distinctive development. This study systematically examines the core cultural essence and botanical carriers of Hainan, identifies current challenges such as cultural gaps, homogenization, insufficient native plant utilization, and rigid cultural expression. Through multidimensional approaches encompassing cultural interpretation, plant selection, spatial design, artistic expression, and material coordination, the research explores design principles and implementation pathways for integrating regional culture into plant configuration. Practical case studies spanning urban parks, residential areas, waterfront landscapes, and rural scenery provide theoretical references and actionable insights for localized and distinctive landscape development in Hainan.
