Which aspects of the houses in my hometown retain the traditional style of Chinese architecture, and which aspects show the modern style?

The kiln retains the traditional style of Chinese architecture, and its "cave-like" style is the traditional architecture of the half-slope people 4,000 years ago.

I. The following aspects show the traditional style:

1. Built of natural loess.

Because it has the advantages of warm in winter and cool in summer, does not destroy the ecology, does not take up good land, economy and money saving, etc., it is widely used by the local people. Kilns in northern Shaanxi have a mountain kiln, stone interface kiln, flat stone kiln a variety of general city to stone, brick kiln, while the rural areas are mostly earth kiln or stone interface kiln. The main forms are pit kilns, kilns along the cliffs, imprisoned kilns and so on.

2, round-arched building is the traditional architectural style of the half-slope.

The traditional kiln space is round-arched from the appearance, although it is very common, but in the monotonous loess as the background, the round-arched shape is more light and lively.

This form originated from nature not only reflects the concept of the circle of heaven and earth in the traditional thought, but also more importantly, the high round arch at the doorway together with the high window can make the sunlight further penetrate into the inner part of the kiln in winter, so that it can fully utilize the solar radiation, and the inner space is also because of the arch, which enlarges the inner vertical space and makes people feel open and comfortable.

The following aspects show the modern style:

1. The green building concept meets the modern standard.

Modern architects believe that the philosophical idea of this kind of building is to show that human beings were originally rooted in the earth, residing in the earth, is a typical representative of the building rooted in the earth. Its natural style of vernacular flavor fully embodies the character of thick and simple. They called the kiln residence is "civilized architecture".

This kind of yard is mostly for the same family several families **** built, both convenient life, but also suitable for *** with anti-theft.

3, in the kiln above the house.

The soil layer is thin, but people love the kiln, so in the kiln on the house. The two organic and skillful combination, all in one, like a building. It is based on the mountains, natural interest. At first glance is the room, a closer look is a kiln.

This form fully compensates for the lack of light and ventilation kiln features. The upper house is high, good light, ventilation; and the room under the kiln warm in winter and cool in summer, good storage, living here, people according to need, or in the upper house, or in the kiln below, free to adjust, very comfortable.
