Abstract
Until recently, developers of Asian metropolitan cities have largely ignored the interconnection between nature and cities. During the early stages of urbanization in Taipei this lack of planning caused many of the current challenges faced by the city. As the movement to build more environmentally sustainable cities gains momentum as we head into the 21st century; so should the desire to upgrade existing cities to these new development aspirations. Sadly however, most of the attention primarily focuses on future cities. This thesis, on the other hand, focuses on the eco-regeneration of older cities, namely, Taipei. The strategy to regenerate the city using eco-puncture is due to the fact that repairing key locations will have the most positive impact. To achieve this endeavor the goals of this thesis are twofold; firstly to investigate Taipei ecosystem to gain a comprehensive understanding of its current and future developmental challenges. Lastly to form an eco-regeneration plan using eco-puncture methods, as acupuncture is the preferred method used in Chinese culture in the process of repairing.
