(2024) ASBM01 20241Department of Architecture and Built Environment
- Abstract
- This design is located in “Small park historic district”in Shantou, Guangdong Province, China. The site is situated in the coastal area of Southeast China, which has a subtropical climate, humid, hot and rainy, and is a port city. The main forms of transport are ferries,
trains, buses and taxis. Shantou is rich in landscape resources, located in an ecological corridor, with many wetlands and parks, and abundant water resources.
Shantou has its own local Chaoshan culture with strong regional characteristics. One of the
characteristic buildings of Shantou is the "arcade".The Small Park Historic Preservation District is
a gathering place for locals on major festivals, a "spiritual home", and a must-see for foreign visitors to Shantou.

a gathering place for locals on major festivals, a "spiritual home", and a must-see for foreign visitors to Shantou.
The site has a large proportion of historically protected buildings, few buildings that can be demolished, poor building quality and high building density. There is a lack of public space and greenery in the site, but the site has a clear road framework and good accessibility to the buildings. Therefore, the living environment of the site needs to be upgraded.
In order to solve this problem, I have analysed the current situation and concluded that there are three aspects that need to be improved, the first is to improve the quality of the building, under the condition of sustainable construction, repair and renewal of historical buildings; the second is the need to increase the landscaping and greening, the use of increased green roofs and increase the greening of the public space in two ways; and the third is the need to create a public space, the use of the main nodes of the building after the demolition of the creation of the main nodes, looking for limited space to create an interesting public space. The third is the need to create public space, using the main nodes created after the demolition of the building, looking for limited space to create interesting public space. (Less)
