“…Sustainability is a critical topic in the current era due to the depletion of natural resources and the disruption of ecosystems. Among the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals for 2030, the creation of sustainable cities and communities is also addressed [1,2]. Use locally available materials, use energy efficient materials, opting for recycling or construction waste, or finding new technologies using natural materials can address the construction industry's issues about sustainable material selection [2].…”

“…Ban's 30-year paper construction experience has demonstrated that paper materials can be used for architectural design with only minor paper improvements and proper structural design. Following Ban's success, there have been many articles in recent years discussing the use of paper in construction [2,5,6]. Nevertheless, the use of paper in landscape architecture, which is very close to architecture, is rarely mentioned [7].…”

With the support of new technology, recyclable paper is capable of being both waterproof and fireproof, and it has been used in architectural design to some extent. However, there are limited studies on the use of paper materials in landscape architecture. The purpose of this study is to investigate the potential of paper materials practice in landscape architecture design from both functional and aesthetic perspectives. The method includes two parts: 1. a systematic review to investigate paper’s properties and capabilities to demonstrate it is qualified as a landscape construction material; 2. Provide a prototype to illustrate how to use paper materials in a practical landscape design. This paper found that the application of paper materials in landscape architecture has the following benefits: low-cost material, easy assemble and removal, build fast, easy transport, recyclable, unique material aesthetic feeling, low technical requirement, educational. Through a systematic review and case studies, this study explored the practical application value of paper materials in landscape architecture, and provided a feasible idea and direction for the landscape architecture industry to practice the concept of sustainable development.
