Study On The Current Housing Design Of Medium And Small-sized Type In China

Residence is a fundamental issue for human existence. One nation sets about itself stability and development as long as it solves successfully the residence problems of the people.At present, there is a huge contradiction between the residence supplying structure and the residence demands of the main consumer group in our nation. Commercial housing area is becoming larger and the price for one unit is getting higher. The mass with lower salaries cannot buy their ideal houses due to these factors. However, from the aspects of our national conditions and the demands of the residents, the medium and small-sized housing type would become the main type for the mass choice. It is the imperative matter for the housing design of medium and small-sized type how to creat the higher comfortable degree under the limitation of the housing area.The paper makes a brief survey of our national residence development history and the existing problems. The paper illustrates the basis which the medium and small-sized housing type would become the main type based on the analysis of these problems. As the saying goes : "there are other hills whose stones are good for working jade", the paper is trying to generalize our nation's housing construction principles and design methods based on the the analysis of domestic and overseas residence development history, policies and study achievements.The paper explores the existing problems of the medium and small-sized housing type and proposes rational consuming views based on the "Human is core"principles starting from the analysis of the urban residents demands and living conditions. The paper also summarizes the design principles of the medium and small-sized housing type and explores the comfortability degree of the main functional space of the medium and small-sized housing type. Meanwhile, the paper draws an inference that the medium and small-sized housing type design must lay emphasis on detailed precise design. Through the analysis of the typical cases, the paper would proposed some valuable design views and successful design cases so as to provide references for architects.
