The Research on Method of Regional Urban Design Oriented by Gene Recombination Concept

Abstract

Urban development is a process of continuous growth, in which historic context as a contact clues, has determined the regional expression of the city. Based on the regional context, taking regional city as research object, through analyzing the regional urban design theory development trend and practical problems, this paper tries to introduce the concepts of “gene recombination” into urban design of regional city, and takes the urban design of waterfront district of Yuanjiang county, Yunnan province for case study. It applies the method which expresses the context of “extraction-repair-integration” to reconstruct the regional context from three aspects of natural condition and physical space, social and cultural environment, economic and technical support. And it promotes integrating among regional natural, humanistic environment and material space form, and then achieves the goal of expression and continuation of cities with regional characteristics. At the same time, it would give a inspiring thinking way for the research on regional urban design.
