Description
Summary:There are a large number of atypical traditional villages in Huizhou, China. These villages are facing a huge increase in spatial renewal and construction due to the problems of fragmented historical space and unbalanced spatial structure. Therefore, taking Yuguang Village as an example, this paper proposes an efficient spatial renewal method: by analyzing the space of traditional villages, simulated villages, and modern villages, three modules of traditional “continuation”, transitional “integration”, and modern “reconstruction” are constructed, and the “discrete aggregation” algorithm is used to combine and simulate these modules in various ways. Finally, the generated results are reasonably analyzed by the fractal theory. The application results of the methods above show that, based on the regional setting of spatial combination and the differential analysis of spatial distribution, intelligent organization technology can weaken the dual separation status of traditional and modern, and realize the targeted and reasonable evaluation of spatial transition and synergistic effect. The technical route can provide innovative and efficient design reference for the renewal of a large number of atypical traditional villages and other types of villages, which has universal and extensible applicability.
