| The main value of a traditional style of the street lies in its unique geographical characteristic features, thus implying the city's historical context. A city's rapid economic development leads to excessive updating, causing the destruction of traditional style of streets and the interruption of traditional contexts. As a result, people can no longer find a sense of belonging and identity. With the improvement of living standards, people long for spiritual roots. People reflect a more intense feeling of nostalgia - desiring a sense of belonging and identity, nostalgia rises as a mass cultural phenomenon. Therefore, how to update the traditional style of the street to meet people's nostalgic feelings has become an unavoidable topic of our times.Nostalgia exists in many areas. On the cultural level, it is mainly shown as a kind of complex and aesthetic images in the search for spiritual roots. When such nostalgic feeling integrates with architecture, it shows the retention, renewal and repair of local culture. In this paper, on the basis of research on interfacial configuration of traditional style streets, we study how to meet people's search for spiritual nostalgia as the focus point, and how to identify, locate, keep, repair, renew and continue the context of the city (preserving is the premise, repair and renewal are continuation and supplement). We will discuss from three levels: street as a unit, interfacial configuration of street and interfacial details. In this paper, a large number of field research and case analysis have been provided, with the purpose to giving references and guides to updating the traditional style of street, especially in interfacial configuration of architecture.The paper is divided into four parts:First (chapter1, 2): This part is on raising certain questions. It discusses the research background: fragmentation of urban context triggers people's searching for nostalgia complex. Traditional style streets urgently need to be efficiently renewed. Also, the first part gives the main research purpose, research significance and innovation point. It also fixes the research framework. In the end, definitions are proposed and interpreted such as"Architectural interface of traditional style street","Nostalgia"and"Updating in basis of nostalgia".Second (chapter 3, 4): This part is to analyze problems. It tries to help acknowledging capabilities, features and issues of the traditional style of street in architectural interface. The influence factors of updating in architectural interface are analyzed. In basis of this part, we continually analyze the experience and method of updating in architectural interface.Third (chapter5, 6): This part is to solve problems. Firstly, proper design principles are raised and then new methods of updating at the basis of nostalgia. Three aspects (overall, interface and details) have been put forward. At last, with an example to validate, we can approve our questions:"How to identify, locate, keep, repair, renew and continue the context of the city at the basis of nostalgia, and obtain a sense of place."Fourth, (chapter7): This part is the epilogue. We claim the positive significance and the negative effect of the updating with nostalgia and summarize the full text. |
