Negli anni '90 la produzione della seta ha vissuto una crisi in Cina. Anche se ancora in corso oggi, Zhejiang Premier Silk Manifattura è in declino. Situato a nord della città di Chang An, un tempo era una delle più grandi manifatture di seta in Cina. Si potrebbe dire che la storia della fabbrica è una vivida rappresentazione della storia moderna della città, o la lavorazione della seta in Cina. Come tutti sanno, la seta è stata per molti anni un simbolo iconico per la produzione cinese. E 'una grande delusione che la depressione della fabbrica ha causato la depressione della città, che ha anche portato via i ricordi della gente riguardo lavorazione della seta. Pertanto, l'obiettivo principale di questo progetto è, come attrarre l'interesse delle persone per l'industria della seta, come per vitalizzare la città e il modo per far conoscere la cultura e la vita sul canale ristrutturando la fabbrica? Il progetto presenta analisi complesse della storia, la geografia, la cultura della fabbrica e l'area. Durante il processo di progetto, vari casi vengono studiati e così sono criticate e elencati nel rapporto. Di conseguenza, il progetto ha proposto strategie di base per l'intera area e uno schema di completa ristrutturazione per la fabbrica, cercando di rispondere alle domande che vengono sollevate sopra. Il progetto mostra anche un tentativo pratico per discutere di questi argomenti più popolari in Cina.

Abstract
In the 90s the silk manufacture has experienced a crisis in China. Although still running today, Zhejiang Premier Silk Manufactory is declining. Located north to the town of Chang An, It was once one of the largest silk manufactories in China. One could say that the history of the factory is a vivid representation of the modern history of the town, or the silk manufacture in China. As all know, silk has been for many years an iconic symbol for Chinese production. It is a great disappointment that depression of the factory caused the depression of the town, which also took away people’s memories about silk manufacture. Therefore, the main objective in this project is, how to attract people’s interest to silk industry, how to vitalize the town and how to let people know the culture and lives on the canal by renovating the factory? The project presents complex analyses of the history, geography, culture of the factory and the area. During the project process, various cases are studied and so are criticized and listed in the report. As a result, the project has proposed basic strategies for the whole area and a complete renovation scheme for the factory, trying to answer the questions that are raised above. The project shows also a practical attempt to discuss those most popular topics in China.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
