Description

China's housing development has moved from incremental construction to the stage of improving the quality of stock.Historic and cultural block, due to their early construction, property rights, heritage conservation, and funding, have poor living qualities, difficulties in relocating populations, and a concentration of vulnerable populations, and residents generally lack a safe, healthy, and dignified living environment.Dashilan is one of the first national historic and cultural block in Beijing, and because the current renewal planning model is still limited to public space and street facade improvement, the housing problem has not been fundamentally solved, and there is a lack of quantitative assessment of the current per capita housing situation and the housing problem of the vulnerable populations.Therefore, this study firstly summarizes the experiences of eight countries or regions, including the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Japan, Korea, and Hong Kong, China, in terms of minimum housing standards and housing quality improvement.Second, based on the minimum housing standards of each country, combined with the seventh population census and field research data, the study quantitatively evaluates the current per capita housing situation in Dashilan in terms of spatial size, basic functional space, architectural performance and basic equipment, and the living environment, and identifies gaps in relation to the minimum housing standards of each country.Finally, drawing on international experience in improving living quality, we put forward policy recommendations in five aspects: sustainable development, space size, basic functional space, architectural performance and basic equipment, and living environment, and put forward the minimum per capita living space and basic environmental requirements, in order to guarantee a safe, healthy and dignified living environment for Dashilan residents, improve living quality and provide reference for historical and cultural block of the same type.
