安堂村無論從哪一個角度看,因為她複雜的人口結構,規劃結構,即使她鄰近於設計規劃良好的大學旁邊,作為大學外附近的唯一的商業區,她存在設計上的改進空間(Fig.1)。

階段總結 (2019):

我們認為這樣的工作是具有極大社會意義的。不拘泥於單純學習外國案例(如墨爾本「Bluestone Laneways」,台灣「都市酵母」),我們更注重人與村落的溝通,重新思考舊時代人與物之間的關係以及未來的可能性。

並發現這是一個發展過快的新城鎮所嚴重缺乏的(並且是非常典型的嚴重的現象看,歷史看來如香港重慶大廈,曼谷的Siam Square,及孟買的眾多街道)(Hou and Chalana, 2016)。通過改善這種關係,不僅有助於治安,人之間關係,居住者與外來者(大量的大學生成為流動人口/商業的加入)的關係的改善,更創造都市文化,市鎮形象(幫助吸收優質商業,移民)。而,根據 Lang(2011),改善「城市形象」與「城市品牌」正正是改善上述關係的方法。

根據我們目前收集的訊息,通過我們計畫的介紹,學生及當地店家群體已開始考慮安堂村本身這個地方的價值,轉變人與人之間的態度,而不是像以往較傾向於考慮利益關係。我們更希望用我們以上做到的方式,去改變更多地區的「關係」。
