Research on the Morphological Characteristics and Morphological Control of Arcade Buildings on the Long Bund in Guangzh

In Guangzhou city, there are a large number of traditional arcade buildings, which are often constructed side by side and in different styles, resulting in the formation of distinctive arcade streets. There are a number of Guangzhou's excellent modern-day arcade buildings on the Long Bund in Guangzhou, but in recent years, the Long Bund has seen a lack of dialog between new buildings and traditional arcade buildings and a decline in traditional arcade building culture in urban development, which has led to the gradual disappearance of the historical characteristics of the arcade street on the Long Bund. The typomorphology method used in this thesis, however, analyzes the morphological evolution law of urban elements from the perspective of the evolution of urban elements over time, summarizes the morphological characteristics of urban elements, and formulates corresponding morphological design guidelines. The method attaches great importance to the historical characteristics of the research object in the analysis process, and emphasizes the response of new buildings to the historical characteristics in the practical application, and its research results can provide operational guidelines for the preservation and renewal of urban historic districts. This thesis takes typomorphology as the theoretical research object, analyzes its theoretical background in depth, summarizes its analytical method and working framework,and summarizes the operation and process of the specific application of the theory through case studies, constructs the framework of the localized application of the theoretical method, and aims to apply the theoretical method to the arcade buildings on the Long Bund, to summarize the morphological characteristics of the arcade buildings on the site . This thesis is divided into six chapters. This thesis aims to supplement the deficiencies in the application of typomorphology research in China through the study and application of typomorphological analysis methods. It also provides insights into localization research. Furthermore, it offers specific recommendations for the morphological renewal and design of the shophouse buildings along the Long Bund.
