The Protection And Regeneration Design Of A Coexistence Courtyard Under The Traditional Residential Texture In Xiaoxihu Area,Nanjing

The Xiaoxihu District is a historical area in Nanjing with the traditional residential texture.However,it has become a shackled old city due to the rapid development of the city.The protection and regeneration planning of the Xiaoxihu historical area adheres to the consensus of “small scale and gradual regeneration”.“Small scale” refers to the basic unit based on a property plot of the living space.“Gradual regeneration” means a sub-type and phased update of the Xiaoxihu area.This paper studies a seheme which combined both top-down planning and bottom-up self-renenal.The research takes a courtyard as the study unit,which also refers to the basic unit of human living space.The aim of this paper is to propose a strategy which response to the space and conssenation demand of traditional residential area.Chapter 2 introduces the process and method of dynamic adjustment of protection and regeneration planning.Chapter 3 studies the history and current situation,resources and constraints,programing and use-pattern of the coexistence courtyard,and try to find out the key issue in the utilization of space resources.Chapter 4 summarizes the design strategies of spatial regeneration as four aspects,including spatial expansion,formal expression,composite utilization and technical support.Finally,the practical process of planning to space regeneration is reviewed,and the spatial regeneration strategy with the adaptability of Xiaoxihu area is found.This design practice can bring useful exploration to “small scale and gradual regeneration” planning and design.The spatial regeneration in the traditional residential texture provides a reference value for design strategies.
