Regeneration of Nan Bu Ting area in southern region of Nan Jing

Nan Jing is famous for its long history and rich culture and nowadays it is facing a serious

problem of character lost in company with fast modernization and construction.

In south area along Qin Huai River which is the source of most non-material cultural

heritages, lots of old districts are under the process of demolishing which contains the

most valuable element for the area is the existing urban texture of old Nan Jing city.



On the other hand, people in old south area are facing problems of over density ,

chaos environment and shabby houses for decades of years. How to improve people’s

living standard become an important issue for local government.



The purpose of the thesis is to find ways to preserve the valuable urban texture, at

the same time, expand open spaces for new requirements of residential and public

use.



The traditional small scale and the requirement of big open space is the main conflict

through out the whole design. The design is proposed to create big spaces first

and use different ways to separate them into small spaces with the maintenance of

the function.



There are two steps in the design process. The first step is to reorganize the existing

buildings and the second step is to generate landscape design. The landscape design

should keep the same language with the buildings and interpret different ways to

keep the original scale of the space at the same time meet the requirement of new

space functions. / published_or_final_version / Architecture / Master / Master of Landscape Architecture
