As the opinion put forward earlier, artistic characteristic plays an important
role in regenerating wasteland. To successfully recycle drosscapes,
strategies should be properly used and carefully considered. What is
more, experience should be shared worldwide. Since the Industrial
Revolution first started in Western Europe, these countries are supposed
to be clearer in idea how series the environmental costs are and how
difficult it could be to remedy the problems. Examples have been set
so that designers should pay attention to avoiding the generation of
wasteland in the first place when doing a design.
