“…Maguire et al (2014) explored the personal health and ergonomic problems of older people in the kitchen and proposed more flexible and adaptable design strategies [ 22 ]. Wang et al (2022) studied the relationship between the efficiency of the elderly’s daily activities and the spatial layout of the home kitchen and evaluated the moderating effect of cognitive function, helping to provide a basis for the future design and optimization of residential spaces [ 27 ]. Ficocelli and Nejat (2012) designed a cognitively assisted, interactive kitchen system for people with cognitive deficits that can help users overcome problems of attention and memory deficits [ 28 ].…”

The current COVID-19 pandemic is exacerbating the challenges facing human society. The public is increasingly concerned about the health and well-being of individuals, families, and communities. To enhance human health and well-being, user expectations for the future need to be understood. The kitchen, a central area of a home, is closely related to healthy living. In this study, a series of seven exploratory workshops were held at a Chinese university using co-design to understand the expectations and thinking of Chinese college students about the future of kitchen design in terms of health and well-being. A methodological innovation was introduced in co-design workshops, where participants were asked to imagine, discuss, and sketch concepts together to stimulate creative design. A six-dimensional tentative model of future kitchen expectations, including 34 sub-themes, was constructed based on the data analysis to explore the expected characteristics of kitchens. These dimensions include intelligent technologies and interaction experiences, health and well-being, inclusivity and extensibility, ecosystem circulation and sustainability, emotional and meaningful experience, and spatial planning and aesthetic experience. The resulting model provides valuable insights into the expectations of future users, providing direction and systematic strategies for future kitchens along the six-dimensional characteristics. Future kitchens, if the younger generation is to adopt them, need to positively affect users’ lives and meet their health and well-being standards.

Traditional villages and dwellings are an essential component of cultural heritage, closely associated with the distinctive cultural characteristics of ethnic regions. This study focuses on traditional Yi ethnic villages in Liangshan and employs spatial syntax analysis and quantification methods. The research explores the cultural factors behind the spatial characteristics of towns and dwellings. The findings reveal that the selected village exhibits weak recognizability, strong independence, and an inward and closed spatial configuration centered in the middle section. Homes are typically arranged with a main building and two side buildings revolving around a central courtyard and a main hall. Internally, the arrangement of rooms shows flexibility and diversity, with the rooms of younger generations surrounding those of the elders and functional spaces organized around the hearth. These spatial characteristics are influenced by various cultural factors, including the mountainous terrain, lineage system, semi-agricultural and semi-pastoral production methods, emphasis on family harmony, use of lightweight local materials, and reverence for nature and the hearth. This research provides insights into the conservation and inheritance of Yi ethnic architectural and cultural heritage.
