City continues to develop, after a period of time, what we may have to face is no longer is large-scale buildings. Over the last a decade or two, incredible huge numbers of buildings springing up, cities are quickly developing and concrete forest is raging. Old part of the city is demolished and new town is being built. A new pattern of urban space and structure is forming up, which in subtly profoundly affects everyone’s life, including the mode of their interaction and social relations. All these nearsightedness have made our city full of discovery, modification. We should use wisdom and strategy to find the possibility of change. In the post-bubble cities we may pay more attention to and understand some anonymous, informal architecture and space that help make us have a new field of vision and determination to heal the fast-growing cities, make up for the lack of urban functions, and build a healthy social relations between people.This article selects the perspective of daily life, takes a "bottom-up" observation and research method. Research on urban "informal" space presents a unique spatial characteristics and social aesthetics, illustrates discussion about its architectural ontology sense, as well as the thinking of traditional culture and also the contemporary continuation and development for "in" design in the context.An attempt is made to enrich the contemporary architecture and city culture, strengthen the connection between the man and the diversity of regional culture."Informal" urban space is unconventional form of architecture and urban space relying on the city construction land and space(such as space under highway, building roof space, residential courtyard space, street unoccupied space, etc.) There are many kinds of space form, such as horizontal and vertical residential additions, illegal community or buildings, small temples, selling stalls, local opera structures, temporary stage and night market space and so on. "Informal" space is actually a kind of temporary space, mutable, mobile, with strong adaptability and city nomad structure. People base their life needs on a self-constructed behavior, which is a kind of spatial patterns of spontaneous growth from bottom to top.This article is trying to fusion architecture space design theory and specific building techniques, attempting to put forward the possibility of constructing a theory of urban architecture and view based on the new space of thinking mode. Pay attention to those inconspicuous, "anonymous", "daily" space and reflect the sense of value upon construction of the "informal".As with E-mail and letter writing, the relationship between print and hand writing, do not throw away the feelings that we feel and touch when we are enjoying the convenience technology brings us.
