The theme of 2012 Summer School is:

NEXT：Ecological Intervention on Shanghai Historical Li-Long Housing

Li-Long housing is considered the most representative local residential building type of Shanghai. As a symbol of the City Shanghai, with the emergence of successful projects like Xin Tiandi,Tian zifang etc. in recent 10 years, Li-Long housing is becoming a popular hot issue on preservation and revitalization of local urban heritage, playing rather important role in the process of Shanghai urbanization. Most of Lilong housing, however, is in bad condition. On the one hand, the existing housing structures are decayed, the existing equipments are so poor that cannot meet the growing living request.of local residents; on the other hand, self-updating system of housing  can’t start due to the over-high density of population and serious social conflicts .These problems caused Li-Long housing gradually as obstacles in urban development and heritage preservation.

In this case, as the platform of international exchanges and cooperation, the 2012 CAUP summer school tries to explore the strategies and practices on preservation and ecological revitalization of historical Lilong housing in Shanghai, and studies the possibility of future development. It will raise contemporary architects to consider more aspects on social, economical , cultural, architectural and technological value of urban sustainable development deeply.

In collaboration with Urban Planning Bureau of Shanghai Hong Kou District, CAUP has carefully selected a typical Li-Long housing block in the Hong Kou District which still keeps main characteristics of old Lilong housing neighbourhood as a real study sample for 2012 Summer School program, and participants are encouraged to develop open-mind discussion based on the following three pairs of problems:

 Homogeneous urban texture vs deteriorative physical environment

 Compact and orderly space of neighborhood vs complex and chaotic residential environment

 Historical value of architecture vs sustainable progress of modern life

The aim of this issue is to explore a model of Li-Long housing quarters through ecological intervention ,it should meet three criteria:

1) The proposal should highlight one’s imagination. Endeavors to solve realistic sustainable problems at all levels (social, historical, environmental, economic, etc) with an Utopian open mind will be encouraged.

2) Think Global, act Local. Participants are to deal with sustainable development, a growing global concern, at the local level, by responding creatively to the local climate, urban fabric, and social culture as well.

3) Experiment on new technologies while optimizing the existing ones, and integrating them with sustainable ecological elements .

In short, 2012 CAUP Summer School offers every participants an unique opportunity to meet and communicate, and develop their innovative strategies together on preservation and renovation of Li-Long housing in Shanghai.

We are looking forward to meeting qualified participants in Shanghai.

五、主题

NEXT：上海历史里弄街区生态化改造

NEXT：Ecological Intervention on Shanghai Historical Li-Long Housing

主要内容：

石库门里弄是上海最有代表性的民居建筑，不仅被认为是上海近代都市文明的象征之一，而且随着新天地、田子坊等项目的成功而成为上海城市遗产保护与再生的研究热点，在上海的城市化过程中扮演着至关重要的角色。然而，里弄当前的生存状态不容乐观：一方面建筑本身的结构老化破损严重，满足现代生活的基础设施极度短缺；另一方面、居住人口密度过高，社会矛盾尖锐，自我更新机制无法启动。这些负面因素加剧集聚形成了一系列的连锁反应，致使里弄逐渐沦为现代城市生活的障碍和历史建筑保护的难题。

在此背景下，同济大学建筑与城市规划学院希望利用暑期设计学校这一国际交流合作项目平台，尝试探索生态化的上海里弄社区保护与改造设计实践，研究其未来发展的可能性策略，引发未来的建筑师对当代上海城市可持续发展的社会、经济、文化、建筑和技术价值的全面思考。我们将联合上海市虹口区规划局共同研讨，遴选市虹口区内有特点、待发展的典型老式里弄街区作为本项目研究基地，并围绕下列三组问题和矛盾进行开放式讨论：

1）细密均质的城市肌理 vs日益恶化的物理环境；

2）紧凑有序的邻里空间 vs错综 紊乱的居住环境；

3）建筑文化的历史价值 vs现代生活可持续演进。

本课题的目标是通过对石库门里弄的建筑风貌保护及环境设施的生态技术更新，从根源上入手，以文化保护和技术手段切入，研究发展策略，寻求有效途径，构建具有人文、生态、技术于一体的新里弄文化格局，以推动城市遗产、文化遗产及区域生态间的良性循环。这一目标又可具体分为以下三个方面：

1）多元性：可持续发展涉及环境、历史、社会、经济等各个层面，因此不存在一个普适答案来回答以上所有问题。对于上海里弄这一居住形态的可持续改造，本课题将以一种乌托邦的开放态度来综合回应和探讨。

2）新生态：本课题提倡运用综合设计策略回答紧凑、能源、水、材料、环境质量等问题，寻求独特的切入点，以当地策略求解全局问题。

3）新技术：本课题鼓励在实验新技术的同时创造性发展适宜的现有成熟技术，将技术（结构、材料、设备）及生态元素与新的里弄形态相整合，以实现可持续的目标。

总之，本课题存在下述几个重要意义：

1）社会价值：本课题关注那些在快速城市化发展中受到重大冲击的社区群体和空间，使参与者树立为历史负责的公民建筑师意识。

2）文化价值：本课题对里弄这个富有特色的近代上海城市遗产展开研究，尝试探索保护与发展相结合的途径，强化上海海派文化的包容性和生命力。

3）技术价值：对历史建筑进行积极的再利用本身就是最大的节能举措，为历史建筑的保护和再利用探索一条适用性生态节能技术导向的整体改造与再发展模式。
