With the development of human urbanization,the population expansion is tense,and some countries and regions dominated by collective housing,such as Singapore and Hong Kong.However,detached house has always been the mainstream living and residential form of the world for their high quality of living.China's residential form since ancient times was dominated by detached houses.After the founding of New China,it began to move towards a residential commercialization market with collective housing as its mainstream.Whether there is no development space for detached house in China;whether the mainstream traditional living methods in the past hundreds years will be alienation and de-massified in this way;how is China's detached houses from the form of traditional courtyards evolved into a diversified form in the “Westernization”?;as China's detached houses are once again in line with the world,what does “westernization” of detached house mean for Chinese architects;after China's detached houses have undergone a long process effected by “Westernization”.After all,what direction will it go,and so on.With this series of questions,the author takes the mainland China as the main research object and visits various places for research.Beginning in China's modern era,China's detached houses began to westernize,initially represented by the addition of completely classical Western-style buildings or structures in Chinese-style architectural courtyards or next to Chinese-style buildings.Later,the integration of China and the West formed a combination of Chinese and Western detached house.During this period,there were also a large number of classical Western-style independent houses in China's upper class.With the development of the architects group returning back China from study abroad,a number of detached houses with Chinese revival formed a trend,but in the end they went to modern style.Modern style is the end of modern Chinese detached houses architechtural style form in modern westernization.The influence of war and policy led to the stagnation period of detached houses in China for nearly 30 years.After that,the residential began to be commercialized,and the irrational state based on the classical western-style detached house began to seek development.It has experienced modern style,and now Chinese-style detached house has a rising trend.China's detached houses are now exploring the development of “localized” architecture in the field of detached house.Through field research,comparative analysis and other methods,this paper analyzes the background,function and graphic design,space design,stylized design and the practice of Chinese contemporary architects in the detached house field from the modernization of modern Chinese detached house.The “Westernization” of detached house is not only reflected in the replacement of architectural styles.Summarize the evolution of the architectural design of Chinese detached houses in the process of westernization: First,the courtyard elements run through the development of Chinese detached houses in the form of inner courtyards or outer courtyards.The spatial relationship between detached house buildings and courtyards is traditional.Closed outwards,closed inward," closed outwards,open inwards";second,the layout of the building from "distributed" to "clutch";third,the construction form from the "anonymous" craftsman became the architect of "signature".Moreover,the development of detached house in China has fault repetitiveness.The emergence of faults makes the choice of detached house architectural styles very similar to the early modern times with classical western style as the starting point for development.But the difference is that the modern end of detached houses development style is modern style,while the development of modern Chinese detached houses has become diversified,and the return of Chinese style is getting stronger and stronger.This is the two different social environments and social psychology.Caused by the action.detached houses have always been an important experimental carrier of architects' architectural thoughts and theories because of their relatively small volume and function.The development of independent houses in China also provides a better practice platform for Chinese architects.From another perspective It also has a great role in promoting the development of Chinese architectural design.
