Calling for an organic renewal of the city rather than razing the old one and building a new one, Liangyong (architectural and urban studies, Tsinghua U., Beijing) takes the Chrysanthemum Lane neighborhood project as an example of how to alleviate the overcrowding and lack of services without destroying the community and traditional shape of the city. He introduces the case study with a review of the place of the city in dynastic Chinese capital planning, its different scales from the grand to the human, and the qualities of its vernacular urban fabric and courtyard houses.
