Study on Protectional Ideas and Constructed Strategies of Vernacular Landscape during Planning and Design of Small Towns

Abstract

With urbanization accelerating in China, small-town vernacular landscape has faced severe challenges. Basing on analysis of current situations of protection against small-town vernacular landscape, we deeply analyzed four reasons for them, and then discussed protectional ideas of small-town vernacular landscape from the angle of planning formulation ,which are respectively, analyzing ideas of overall protection from the regional angle, defining the idea of "duality", carrying out the idea of order that protection is superior to heritage and development, and bringing in the concept of "anti-planning". Finally, we put forward constructed strategies from the angle of urban design, and basing on integrated classified research of small-town vernacular landscape, we put forward the constructed strategies from the trinity level of macro-medium-micro.
