REVIEW ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF URBAN REGENERATION IN CHINA FROM 1949 TO 2019

Author: YANG Jianqiang; CHEN Yue

ABSTRACT: Urban regeneration has been an important issue in the international academic circle of urban planning. Since 1949, urban regeneration in China has gained richer connotations and wider extensions. Thus, the review on its 70 years’ history can help us better understand the specific generation logic, stage problems, and important lessons of urban regeneration in China. This paper divides Chinese urban regeneration history into four major stages based on the urbanization process and macro policies on urban constructions. Meanwhile, the paper analyzes in detail the political background, representative cases, regeneration thoughts, academic activities, and legal systems in each stage, in order to provide the stage characteristics of urban regeneration in China. In the end, on the basis of the historical evolution and summarized experience, the paper proposes that urban regeneration in China should advance toward the new mechanisms of multiple values, multiple regeneration models, multiple disciplines, multiple participants, and co-governance. In the future, the major content of planning work shall focus on building a scientific, systematic, and institutionalized urban regeneration system.

URBAN DESIGN TRANSFORMATION IN THE ERA OF REFINED GOVERNANCE: A BINARY THINKING

Author: TANG Yan

ABSTRACT: This paper analyzes the transformation trend of urban design in China in the new period from the perspective of binary thinking. With the advent of the inventory planning and refined management era, the urban design development in China needs to constantly strengthen both standardization and individualization, and thus shows multiple characteristics of binary transformation: the working mode of urban design is gradually changing from “design control” to “design governance”; the function changing from “public policy” to “product design”; the action mechanism is changing from “design activities” to “social mobilization”; and the institutional construction is in need of combining “top design” with “grassroots exploration”. Based on these four two-dimensional views, the paper finally puts forward the prospect of urban design development in China from the aspects of dynamic adaptation and active response.

PRACTICE AND THINKING ON THE REFORM OF NATIONAL SPATIAL PLANNING SYSTEM AT CITY LEVEL: WITH XIAMEN CITY AS AN EXAMPLE

Author: CHEN Zhicheng; FAN Chenyu

ABSTRACT: National spatial planning is an important task in China’s planning field at present, and the establishment of a national spatial planning system has become an urgent problem to be solved by local natural resources departments. Based on the practice of Xiamen’s spatial planning system reform, under the new background of institutional reform and the new requirements of the national spatial planning system, this paper explores the construction of a national spatial planning system. From the two aspects of system construction and planning implementation, it proposes the organic integration of urban design system, rural revitalization planning system, planning implementation system and national spatial planning system. Related emphases should be laid upon using the master plan of land space to lead the sequence of urban spatial planning, covering all the regional elements to deepen special planning system of national space, innovating the detailed planning system of national space for examination and approval management, and linking up the development sequence to construct the implementation system of national space planning, so as to truly realize the multi-plan integrated national space planning system.

HOMO-URBANICUS: BASIC LOGIC AND OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE

Author: Hok-Lin LEUNG

ABSTRACT: Human-centered spatial planning seeks to satisfy the animal nature (pursuit of safety, comfort, convenience, and sensory pleasure), social nature (enhancement of spatial opportunities by living together), and rational nature (balance between self-preservation and mutual-preservation) of human beings in the spatial contacts associated with their production, living, and environmental activities, through the use, allocation, and organization of land/ spaces. Its basic logic and operational procedure are illustrated by three examples, in the hope of providing reference for planning decision making.

FUTURE CITY AND PLANNING PRACTICE OF “HANGZHOU SAMPLE”

Author: ZHANG Jingxiang; ZHANG Qin; HUANGFU Jiaqun; LI Di

ABSTRACT: The history of urban development is the history of human’s continuous pursuit of future city. Especially in the past century, facing problems induced by the rapid industrialization and urbanization, the exploration of “future city” has long been oriented by high technology. Nowadays, with the rapid speed of technological advance, the high-tech oriented future city has fallen into misunderstandings in practice. We should return to the value of “people-oriented”, and construct a new type of future city in which people live in harmony with nature and technologies. Entering a new era, facing the requirements of ecological civilization construction and the new trend of world urban development, China urgently needs to change the development mode of traditional cities, and has the responsibility and obligation to contribute to the world the “Chinese approach” for cities in the future. Taking Hangzhou – “practice area for future city” as an example, this paper expounds the understanding and planning exploration of the future city from the aspects of development path, life style, spatial construction, technical support, cultural spirit and good governance, with the hope of providing enlightenment for the transformation of urban development ideas, modes, and paths in China.

JOBS-HOUSING RELATIONSHIP IN DIFFERENT INDUSTRIES AND ITS IMPACT ON TRAFFIC DEMAND ON ROAD NETWORKS: A CASE STUDY IN GUANGZHOU

Author: SHI Zhenqin; ZHOU Suhong; CHEN Ying

ABSTRACT: On the basis of the economic census and demographic census data, this paper analyzes the jobs-housing balance in different industries in Guangzhou by using the Lorenz curve and the Engel coefficient. Then the paper measures the jobs-housing space interaction in different industries through gravity model, explains the spatial pattern of jobs-housing mutual attraction, and analyzes the distribution of urban traffic demand on the road network based on the strength of the mutual attraction. Results show that there are some differences in the level of jobs-housing balance among the five industries, of which the industrial sector sees the most balanced relationship, whereas the construction sector sees the least balanced relationship. The traffic demand on road network of the industrial sector, the consumer services sector, and other industries is mainly distributed in the periphery of the central city, the periphery of the central city and the core area, and the central city respectively. The jobs-housing relationship and traffic demand on road network are related to the industrial land use structure, the housing preference of people in different industries, and the path dependence of institutional factors.

THE MUSICAL NOTRE DAME DE PARIS AND THE AUDIBILITY OF CITY: FOR THE 30TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE NATIONAL YOUTH URBAN PLANNING PAPER COMPETITION

Author: HUA Chen

ABSTRACT: This paper analyzes how Notre Dame de Paris transforms from building into auditory information that carries meaning and aesthetic value, in which the reorganization and transformation of information is an important factor of audibility. In respect of urban quality, its visual factors need the coordination of auditory factors, and both of them are subject to the audience’s feelings. Since the optimization of auditory information can affect the audience’s feelings of visual information, the realization of city’s audibility requires enrichment of cultural connotation and more attention paid to the personalized needs of the audience, in which urban planning can guide and control the audibility of the city, so as to enrich and improve the quality of city.
