This fall, a team of 15 graduate students and three professors from the School of Architecture will design green space in an urban setting between Tsinghua University and the Forbidden City in central Beijing.

"A green space is similar to a park but is also a way to provide a connection with pedestrians and nature, which is a long tradition in China," said Fritz Steiner, dean of the school of architecture.
