The First half of the 20th century is a fast-changing era, which is a special historical period of alternating in two social forms. When the imperialist invaded, we had to transform the traditional agricultural society to modern industrial society, And Chinese traditional culture is also disintegration and reconstruction in the intense East-West conflict and collision.Chinese intellectuals had come from the traditional "scholars" knowledge communities. Because of modern historical background became complexly, They had taken inspiration from the whole nation's awareness and sought the method of salvaging the country. Therefore, most of them choose to learn advanced Western science and culture to achieve the ideal of the renaissance of China, but they had received during the feudal culture of the Enlightenment Youth Education, so,they play a huge role in history the same time, along with the value of their own painful and difficult choices.Residential cultural studies under intellectuals'influence are extension and complement of the chinese modern architectural history. Through starting with the significant cultural debates of modern intellectuals, it is likely to understand their thinking changes at all ages deeply and which has an social and psychological impact on the whole citizens. The essay trys to discover that intellectuals have the potential influence on modern residential models'revolutions in the domain of the mind and explore the intellecturals'ideas and values on the expression of residential'culture at all dimensions. The writer is in an attempt to find "disability" and "vulgar" which lead to collision, interweave and integration of residential architecture in the big context of history. And the thesis also demonstrates how the intellecturals'Ideological culture at the age influence the whole modern' residential architecture and explores the intellecturals'interpretation on the residential buildings under Western culture's impact consciously or unconsciously.Because of the impact of globalization, I studied the characteristic of modern intellectuals'house. Came up with the "new literati" style high-end communities. specificing to well-educated and the intellectual groups who liking for the traditional culture, I hope it could provide a reference for design ideas for the new Chinese-style residence.
