dc.description.abstractThe thesis started from the nostalgia for the historic district and the life within it. I don't agree with the radical method of reforming the historic district at the moment, which is rebuilding the whole district or demolishing it. I tried to find a new way to reform the historic district, so that the new project can blend into the habitats' lifestyle, in which way people can reconnect to their home land. During the design process, there is movie scenes, kungfu novels, and the living moment from my childhood came to my mind. And I translate those scenes into the spaces in the project through an architectural language.en
