building is the freezing point of the regional culture, in such a cultural city, is not based on local culture to create a landmark building, has invested heavily in transplantation European town, this sell ourselves short and cottage into a real worthless.

to see the slopes of the looming European bell tower and Western-style, hard road to pass through a period of dusty. Bear the accusation of “damage to the environment, the built in” foreign town “because of the vibrant, unique style, has become a tourist spot. Copied the Austrian town buildings, and recently appeared in the Guangdong of Huizhou BOLUO the outskirts of hillside.

in the loess of the Chinese-style building surrounded by the Austrian town, “a style jump where they stand, the church spire, European-style huts and an angel statue which stands. This huge investment in real estate projects, has experienced intellectual property rights dispute. Many people questioned the allegedly infringing UNESCO income of the World Heritage List, “the Austrian town Hashitate, until the mayor of this town in the Chinese version of” cultural exchange activities at the scene, the developer hanging with the heart into the stomach. However, the small town construction damage to vegetation, damage to the environment controversy can not be easily quell: trees were cut down, the mountain was dug a pit, bare loess is incompatible with the surrounding scenery …

through consultations with the genuine town damage the natural environment by replanting plants gradually recovered to play creativity of this project from the haunting atmosphere of the cottage has never been able to erase. Over the years, China’s rapid economic development, big on the real estate industry has become over the pillar industries. The newborn construction in addition to have to live and function of the office, cultural content and aesthetic needs also become an important factor. However, creativity and sense of culture, unlike tap water, turn on the tap and splashed to. Grandiose but eager to come up with any inspiration, “ism” has become a popular choice. Government office building, heavy and a sense of authority, a group of buildings similar to the White House on the horses, people to see that this is the local center of power. Landmarks classic style, the cottage “Bird’s Nest” and “Shanghai World Expo China Pavilion” put down roots in different cities. The rich and leisured class needs of the living environment of the mountains, the best window there is the European windmills and green fields, the Austrian town “traveled” in China’s southern Chinese style, surrounded by self into an independent kingdom.

which have been met, the project developers earn pours, and no one care about the real estate development is faced with the depletion creative bottleneck, there is no care about the land of China’s mountains and landforms have been cloned over “patch”, “Europe debris confused tone mottled, no charm. The building itself is a with the existence of cultural codes and local Reiki, life and pull from the ground and stamp in a foreign land, has no natural charm at all. Based aesthetic and building requirements, only to solve through creative self-loom, how can the simple and rude to copy it.

from the economic point of view, this is a quick profit “stealing” behavior, even if temporary gains will also suffocate the industry’s vitality. From a cultural perspective, this is a local culture of self-confidence, respect and non-heritage. We can build a “World Park”, the world classic architectural microform concentration, shows the form of specimens to the nation, right when the concrete knowledge presentation. But we can not let the cottage office and clone town, full of our living environment, perfunctory our cultural pursuit. That would make us feel not in the ancestor of the land passed down to breathe freely, but somehow in the art teacher and props masters layout stage catwalk. A rich imitation of the country, if even the basic cultural gene can not guard, it would be quite a daunting prospect.

Yes, enterprises have the right to determine their own direction of investment, commercial projects to determine their own architectural style, but now aims to be the local attractions and landmarks, you have to bear the cultural aspects of pointing and comments. Guangdong Huizhou BOLUO Lingnan ancient civilization County, and Spring and Autumn Period is Baiyue land dating back 2200 years of history. County, beautiful scenery and abundant resources, the Hakka culture, Lingnan culture, religion, culture, and revolutionary culture in a blend. The building is the freezing point of the regional culture, in such a cultural city, is not based on local culture to create a landmark building, has invested heavily in transplantation European town, this sell ourselves short and cottage into a real worthless.
