Exploration of Planning and Design Strategies for Residential Historical Communities based on Protecting Cultural Stability

Abstract

In urban design and urban renewal, preserving communities and rural heritage that are not included in the protection list has always been controversial. The main difficulties they face are often investment restrictions and low returns. However, perhaps considering it solely based on economic factors may not be rigorous enough; heritage is crucial to the inheritance of community spirit and cultural sensitivity of the community. This article will explore the important value of community heritage and rural heritage that have not been included in the protection list for residents and take Xuanyuandian Community in Changsha City, Hunan Province, and Yanxia Village in Zhejiang Province as examples to discuss the use of urban heritage in the process of urban renewal and design. Planning and design strategies for residential historic communities with the main purpose of protecting community cultural stability.
