| Abstract: |
| Traditional settlements, including towns and villages, are an important part of Chinese
historical architectural environment, showing a variety of unique spatial characteristics. Since
the previous studies mainly focused on the spatial form of cities and towns, and mainly focused
on the descriptive analysis, the spatial morphological characteristics of historical settlements in
rural areas are unclear. This study proposes a new method to understand the spatial morphological
characteristics of rural areas, and analyzes the differences of spatial patterns of traditional rural
settlements in China based on syntactic principles. The 9 settlements (3 groups) with obvious
regional characteristics were selected as the study objects, which were the Nanliuzhuang village,
Baihoubao village and Caotuan village (Group 1) in the North China Plain; the Shitan village,
Changxi village and Gaoyang village (Group 2) located in the Yangtze River delta region; as well as
the Pingyan village, Pingan village and Tiantou village (Group 3) located in the Yunnan-Guizhou
Plateau. Then the star model is used to reveal the difference of spatial features among different
samples. The star model provides a method to interpret the spatial pattern of traditional Chinese
settlements, so as to understand whether the spatial pattern of settlements is inclined to organic
distribution or regular layout. The star model results show that the traditional settlements pattern in
China changes from north to south from standard settlements to deformation settlements and from
background settlements to foreground settlements. The Han settlements are more structured than the
minority settlements, and the northern settlements tend to be more integrated because of their regular
street network structure. In addition, five measures of axiality, curvature, intelligibility, synergy and
organic spatial layout are used to explain the differences of spatial structure of traditional settlements
in different regions. Among them, the axiality and curvature can measure the deformation degree of
the settlement space structure. Intelligibility and synergy measure the legibility and visibility of the
spatial structure of a settlement. Organic spatial layout can be used to measure whether the spatial
distribution of settlements is uniform. The results of categorized spatial measures show that the Han
settlement shows the planning trend of the ideal urban pattern in Kaogongji. Specifically, northern
settlements are more axiality and intelligibility than southern settlements, and have straighter street
patterns. In the southern settlement, the river is in the integrated core area of the street network, and
the spatial layout is more organic, so the river-oriented model can be applied to natural settlements
with spatial organic distribution, mainly ethnic minority settlements, and some Han settlements
in the south China have this feature too. In traditional feng shui ideal, the location of a settlement
should take into account the realistic landscape location, such as sitting north (mountain) and
facing south (river). In ancient times, rivers were very important to the spatial layout of settlements,
because they not only provided water, but also served as important transportation channels to
support economic development. The results found that in southern settlements, rivers tended to
intersect with more integrated streets than with more choice degree streets. This further indicates
that rivers play an important guiding role in the spatial layout of settlements in the south China.
The difference of integration is more significant than the difference of choice in the spatial attribute
of the decisive axis. The results show that the spatial pattern of traditional settlements in China
can be divided into axiality-oriented and concentric river. The former reflects the spatial pattern
of “ideal city” in Kaogongji, while the latter reflects the thought of harmonious coexistence between human and nature in feng shui ideal. This study uses
a series of mathematical measurement methods to explore the spatial characteristics of Chinese traditional settlements, which can promote the expansion
of the interpretation of Chinese traditional culture and contribute to a more accurate understanding of the spatial distribution pattern of Chinese traditional
settlements. For example, in Confucianism, the regular layout pattern of Han settlements leads to significant spatial axiality, which further reflects the regular
spatial cognitive pattern of five directions in ancient China, such as east, west, south, north and central. And the influence of feng shui ideal (the correlation
between human and nature embodied in the natural landscape) on the spatial pattern of settlements. |
