Abstract

In the context of building a “community of maritime destiny”, research on traditional coastal villages in China has been mainly focused on protection and publicity. Nevertheless, the fact that China’s traditional coastal villages could keep their integrity even after windstorm attacks of hundreds of years shows excellent wind resistance, which have not yet been fully explored. The newly built villages near the traditional villages, however, have not inherited the good wind resistance. To study the windproof strategies of traditional villages, the differences in the street layout, spatial form and degrees of integration of two traditional villages in Fuzhou, Qinjiang Village and Dinghai Village, with their new extensions are analyzed and compared. As it turned out that, firstly, T-intersections are better than X-intersections in terms of wind resisting. Secondly, the larger block enclosure the better overall wind protection are. Thirdly, the appropriate-sized open space can introduce fresh air. Furthermore, through the simulation of street integration and connection value, it also found that compared with the new villages, street integrations in the center of the old villages are higher, and the integration from the center to the surrounding side streets decreases more slowly, and its connection value is higher, which can create different paths for the wind flow. By comparing the street spatial characteristics between the old and new coastal villages had shed some light in our understanding of the wind adaptation of streets and alleys in traditional coastal villages, with a view to provide technical supports for the protection and renewal of traditional villages, as well as aiding the construction of a marine cultural with Chinese characteristics in the New Era.
