Weaving Cities through Culture: A Renewal Design on the Hangzhou Imperial Ancestral Temple Market's Revitalization
Abstract
This study pioneers a participatory approach to urban renewal, prioritizing the intricacies of urban fabric and spatial design to meet the evolving needs of the community. It focuses on the ambitious transformation of Ziyang Street's agricultural market into a dynamic community plaza in Hangzhou, emphasizing direct engagement with local residents to understand their diverse aspirations for the redevelopment. The heart of our redevelopment strategy for Ziyang Street lies in the articulation of a design concept that champions urban renewal through a layered, compound approach to spatial organization. This is a bottom-up urban renewal design scheme led by residents. Our approach advocates for the transformation of traditional markets into bustling hubs of urban life, where the historical and the contemporary merge to form inclusive, compound farmers market and urban space.
Keywords: Urban renewal, Agricultural market, Urban design, Compound space, Citizen-led design
