Description

Traditional vernacular dwellings need to undergo inevitable renovations to adapt to modern lifestyles. In the Inner Mongolia section of China's Yellow River basin, earth dwellings are a kind of vernacular dwellings. Over different periods, these vernacular dwellings have been updated. The research selected seven samples based on different construction years, construction methods, and infrastructure provisions. Firstly, the research organizes the samples' courtyards and living space forms for qualitative analysis. Subsequently, using spatial syntax, the integration values of the plans and functional spaces of each sample are calculated to analyze the organizational characteristics of the plans quantitatively. The results indicate that the involvement of builders with different identities affects the spatial form of residential spaces. The infrastructure configuration influences the content and usage of functional spaces. The renovated residences retain the traditional Kang-Stove space but adjust the spatial connections, making the updated plan organization more compact.
