| In the context of urban renewal,existing university buildings in China have faced abandonment,obsolescence,or demolition due to their inability to meet the needs of contemporary development,due to higher education is undergoing a transformation.To address this issue,repurposing existing university buildings has emerged as a mainstream solution.However,the current design process for such repurposing initiatives is characterized by a lack of holistic consideration for regional environmental,cultural,and technological factors.Consequently,it has led to an irrational trend in the development of existing university buildings and a significant discrepancy with the urban environment.This article proposes a whole-view-based renovation and transformation strategy for existing university buildings that achieves regional,cultural,technological,and social balance.This strategy system is established through a comprehensive review of the development trajectory of modern university architecture,an on-site survey of existing university buildings,and a deconstruction of whole-view elements,based on a holistic perspective that considers regional,cultural,and technological factors.Furthermore,by analyzing excellent renovation and transformation designs from domestic and international cases,this article presents specific whole-view-based strategies for the external environment,content form,and sustainable development of existing university buildings.Finally,the article provides empirical evidence for the transformation of similar existing university buildings through a case study of the renovation and transformation of an existing building at Jingdezhen Ceramic Institute,based on the proposed whole-view-based renovation and transformation strategy. |
