| Village center is an important part of rural public buildings,occupies a key position in rural construction and development,and plays a leading role in rural revitalization.From ancestral temples and ancestral halls in the traditional period,to "people’s communes" and "large collective halls" in modern villages,to the evolution of villagers’ centers in the period of rural revitalization,we can see that villagers’ centers are not only places for daily life and leisure,but also undertake functions such as administrative office,education and teaching,cultural inheritance,production and service.At present,villagers’ centers have increasingly diversified functional requirements.Its function and space requirements have been improved accordingly.In 2022,the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and The State Council issued the Opinions on Comprehensively Promoting the Key Work of Rural Revitalization in2022,indicating that the government should strengthen the driving role and the main role of farmers in the process of rural construction.However,from the current situation of newly built and rebuilt villager center buildings,it has not kept up with the speed of rural development.On the one hand,the function composition of the village center is single and not sound,and the connection between the functions is not close,which makes the functions of the building excessively dispersed,and some functions are set repeatedly,resulting in the waste of resources.On the other hand,the rural social environment and natural environment have been impacted by urbanization to varying degrees,which makes the spatial organization of villagers’ center disordered,and thus leads to the lack of space including villagers’ spiritual home and cultural inheritance.Under the background of rural revitalization,the economically developed provinces of Jiangsu and Zhejiang have always been the leading areas of rural construction.With superior geographical location and unique human resources,many excellent design practices of villagers’ centers have emerged.However,these explorations have not yet presented a basic and comprehensive design standard.During the postgraduate study,the author participated in the villagers’ center practice project of Xinlian Village,Haiyan County,Zhejiang Province,and took the villagers’ center as the research object to propose some design strategies for the renewal of function and space,hoping to apply them to the construction of villagers’ centers in other areas of the country.In this context,this paper first makes a clear definition of the concept and research scope of rural villager centers in Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas,and analyzes its historical evolution and types,and concludes the attributes,types and functions of rural villager centers in Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas.Secondly,this paper analyzes the current situation of rural villager centers in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces,and then builds a theoretical model of "contradiction--demand--trend".Then,this paper discusses the strategy of function update and space update respectively.In the function renewal strategy,it mainly discusses from the two aspects of function composition compound and function scale suitable,and demonstrates it in practice.In the space renewal strategy,it mainly discusses the use of space,the type of space organization and the construction of space atmosphere,and then demonstrates it in practice.Finally,this paper summarizes and analyzes the deficiencies,and looks forward to the renewal design of rural villager centers in the future,and hopes that the renewal strategy of this paper can provide some reference and guidance for the construction of rural villager centers in other areas of the country. |
