"The Xinhepu Historical and Cultural Precinct is imbued with rich historical layers and urban memories. This enhancement initiative deliberately avoids large-scale demolition and reconstruction. Instead, it follows a strategy of "micro-regeneration and refined enhancement," focusing on reconnecting the precinct's spatial network. Guided by the "one building, one tailored solution" to architectural restoration and driven by the goal of improving everyday livability, the project employs meticulous craftsmanship and techniques. The ultimate aim is to foster a vibrant precinct where historical character and contemporary life exist in symbiosis."
Xinhepu Historical and Cultural Precinct contains layered history and strong urban memories. The enhancement strategy avoids large-scale demolition and reconstruction, prioritizing conservation and incremental change. Interventions apply micro-regeneration and refined enhancement to reconnect the precinct’s spatial network and restore continuity between places. Architectural restoration follows a one-building, one-tailored-solution approach that customizes treatments for individual buildings. The work emphasizes improving everyday livability through meticulous craftsmanship and technical detailing. Conservation, infrastructure, and public-space adjustments are coordinated to sustain daily life while revealing historical character and supporting contemporary uses.
