The Spirit Of Chinese Tectonic:a Design Method Of Re-enchantment For Contemporary Chinese Architecture

Mechanism makes the world view gradually, and triggered a series of humanistic spirit crisis. In the face of disenchantment,"re-enchantment" is the only countermeasure, it requires a multiple possibilities and the right to interpret, prompt human to search for the value and purpose of existence. In the field of architecture, re-enchantment means regionalism. With the augmentation of the national strength, Chinese architecture has become the hot words again. However, what is Chinese architecture, how to design Chinese style buildings, different researchers unable to agree, and resulting variety of historicism means in the architectural practice. Now, the author choose the perspective of phenomenology, the Chinese-style architecture interpretation for the phenomenology of intersection of Chinese architectural culture and the culture construction, and put forward "the spirit of the Chinese tectonic" theory, to construct the spiritual phenomena as the carrier, with the phenomena of Chinese cultural spirit as material, to return the charm of Chinese traditional world view as the ultimate goal.Frist, we divide the historical architecture design method into three types: Reduction, Pursuit, and Remembrance, to prove the trend of Remembrance, demonstrates the rationality and necessity of the spirit of the Chinese tectonic theory. Next, discuss the combing with history, space, nature, others, deities, secular, induces the psychological cognitive properties:narrative, directivity, associability, empathy, places, ritual and dramatic, and put them into the phenomenon of tectonic:material, construction and space, combined with the spirit of Chinese cultural, to obtain the sprint of Chinese tectonic theory. Finally, through the analysis of two typical cases to support to the theory, and then discusses the limitations and possibilities of this theory in the region, period and creation.
