Nowadays, it is easy to understand that the thermally flimsy products of this era require some dramatic invention-what we often call a “deep energy retrofit” (DER)-and there is an emerging set of standard responses to such envelope enhancement. But some of these buildings have high architectural significance, and deserve a more design-oriented solution than simply wrapping them in an insulative swaddle. This is the story of one such building.展开更多
The economic reform of Chinese cities can be divided into three phases, which are the initial phase of reform from 1978 to 1983, the phase of socialist commodity economy from 1984 to 1991, and the
