The dynamic heritage strategy is an era choice to respond to the “modern monument paradox”. As a highly malleable concept, heritage, whether it is the concept itself or its related practices, has to be discussed, and criticized before recognition in a constant movement. The typical Dutch tolerant society has been facing the impact of multiculturalism and the resulting dynamic identity. The national government therefore proposed a sustainable development concept of “conservation through development” for both heritage protection and regional spatial planning. From the perspective of architects, this paper discusses the dynamic strategies in heritage restoration and transformation from three dimensions of culture, economy and history. Focusing on strategies and specific methods, this paper analyses the dynamic Dutch mode and its positive influence on integrated heritage conservation, evoking sustainable strategies for modern heritage transformation of times. ...

Under the background of coordinated development between urban and rural areas, rural revival is a hot topic. The research focuses on the landscape spatial form under the Characteristic and Idyllic Village. From the perspective of rural experience, it uses settlement space and landscape space analysis method to construct the renewal strategy of experiential characteristic rural style, and then explores the blending and overlapping mode of rural form, function, personality and landscape space. Taking the HuChaoli in shushan village of suzhou city as the sample, the landscape spatial organization system was analyzed. The landscape pattern, spatial sequence and experience depth under the guidance of experience are discussed from the three dimensions of "participation, relevance and complexity". In view of the rural landscape space, the renewal method is proposed to promote the interaction and integration of "rural experience" and "landscape form", so as to obtain the systematic and adaptive optimization strategy in line with the internal mechanism of Characteristic and Idyllic Village. ...

This paper reviews the development of New-Bud System, analyzes the humanistic connotation of“light-weight”comparing with Japanese architect Shigeru’s similar practices, and interprets New-Bud’s construction concept based on humanism and its “autonomic, evolving, derivative”systematic vitality. The concept and pursuit of“light-weight for construction”will also indicate more pluralistic possibilities and follow-ups for the marginal expansion and transformation of architecture. ...

The type of architecture and its spatial organization reflect the architectural education philosophy and attitude. Back in history, as early as the Renaissance, there had emerged study places for architects. After the industrial revolution and the modernist process, the types of architectural education sites are more diverse, and their main features are the spatial form of hybrid and box-in-box. This article preliminarily analyzes the evolutionary outline of architectural education buildings and interprets the spatial ideas in each period. The study focuses on the famous Dutch architectural school--BKCity of the Delft University of Technology, analyzing the teaching space logic of its distinctive Why Factory and exploring how the related space could stimulate the vitality of architectural education. By the analogy of some architectural schools, it also tries to compare the differences and characteristics of Chinese and Western architectural academies, finding out the spatial significance in architecture discipline, education method as well as sustainable application. ...
