| China’s rural construction is a more unique research field in the process of China’s recent modernization.It is faced with the double pressure brought by the reform of rural system and economic transformation in contemporary China,and it has a wide range,and the course of development is tortuous.In the current wave of construction led by the new rural construction,great achievements have been made in the contemporary rural construction in China,but there are also deeper problems.The current rural construction is mainly to simulate the city construction mode to promote the rapid urbanization,but ignored the problem of social structure and the mode of life of the country concerned,leading to the current standard of production and living needs and administrative construction mode can not fit the villagers,also let the local texture and the characteristics of rural traditional all gone.Faced with a series of problems in contemporary rural construction,it is particularly important to guide the practice of contemporary rural architecture design from the perspective of architectural ontology.In the pre industrial age,for the selection of village building materials will follow the principle of local materials,establish a unique natural connection between building materials and rural natural environment.At the same time,the main features of rural buildings are also manifested through the construction materials.Therefore,this paper selects materials as the research focus to analyze and interpret the practice of rural construction in contemporary China,hoping to be beneficial for the future rural architectural design practice.This paper has collected a large number of cases of Chinese contemporary rural construction practice.This paper discusses and analyzes the typical cases of contemporary rural construction practice from three aspects: material structure,decorative properties and cultural attributes,and summarizes the characteristics of material application in contemporary rural construction.Based on the discussion of the authenticity of materials,the material expression in contemporary rural construction practice should conform to the physical properties of materials,and at the same time,we can expand the way of material construction through modern technology.The decoration property of materials is continuously strengthened.The texture of materials,combined with the exquisite workmanship of modern material processing,make materials emit the brilliance of physical property.In terms of cultural attributes,the application of materials in contemporary rural construction practice mainly focuses on nostalgia,place spirit and regional culture,which focuses on the timeliness and locality of rural architecture.Through the analysis and study of a large number of rural construction practice cases,the material use strategy of contemporary rural architectural design is summarized.Four strategies are put forward: the authenticity strategy of material expression,the coherence strategy of material application,the appropriateness strategy of material construction mode,and the ecological strategy of material application.At the end of this paper,we rethink the practical situation of contemporary rural architecture design,and summarize the shortcomings and defects in the process of rural construction.From the perspective of material cognition,it is necessary for us to analyze and research the practice of contemporary rural architecture design,and build a building that can adapt to the characteristics of contemporary rural society in China.In the practice of contemporary rural construction,we should apply materials appropriately,treat the authenticity of material expression dialectically,improve the integration degree of materials in contemporary rural construction,and build a rural architecture with Chinese characteristics based on the present and future. |
