Applied Research on Spatial Narrative in Rural Architectural Design

By Kang Xue

This book introduces spatial narrative into rural architectural design, constructing a design procedure from spatial script, spatial elements, spatial organization, narrative space to the spiritual realm of space. Taking Stonemason Village in Louna, Guizhou as a case study, it explores how old houses, Tiankeng, stone walls, and nostalgic memories can be transformed into experiential spatial stories. Bridging theory, case studies, and design, it offers architects, planners, and rural culture enthusiasts a regional and contemporary approach to rural place-making.
