| This paper starts with the realistic background of the transformation of the dual society in contemporary China.The period of China’s modernization development is a period in which instrumental rationality is “highly praised”.“Development and efficiency ” have become the consensus of the whole society.The dialogue mechanism in the public space of citizens is constantly being swallowed up by rational mechanisms tools from the private market and public power.The Citizen ’ s Service Centre is a large service building developed based on traditional government administration service center,which mainly includes core function— government services,and extended function—public activities.These two parts correspond to the public expression to two different aspects of the expression of the Citizen’s Service Center’s public nature.These two functions determine that the Citizen’s Service Centre has dual social functions and the space has dual needs.The focus of this paper is about how to deal with the relationship between these two parts of functional space,so that people can have the possibility of having social activities in addition to the purposeful activities carried out in coordination with the operation of the government system,and achieve the balance of public expression between the state and the citizens.Under the background of the weakening of publicity in modern society and the unclear value of publicity of the Citizen’s Service Centre,this paper,from the sociological point of view,retrospect the publicity theory in Arendt’s and Habermas’ political and philosophical fields,as well as the space and publicity theory translated into the field of architecture,and constructs the contemporary Chinese context on the basis of the basic theory and the study of the functional space characteristics of the contemporary Citizen’s Service Centre.At the same time,based on this concept,this paper critically examines the current situation of the contemporary Citizen’s Service Centre,and through the analysis of the problems,puts forward the principles of the construction of the concept of public space of the Citizen’s Service Centre from the perspective of function,space,form and environment.Four specific strategies for the construction of the public space of a citizen’s home are as follows: the construction of complex functions,the construction of spatial ambiguity,the diversification of forms and the unification of environment.Finally,the relevant theories are tested through the design practice of specific practical projects. |
