🏛️ Urban Renewal of Chengdu | Pengzhou Longxing Temple Area by BIAD-ASA Studio
Located in the heart of Pengzhou’s old town, this project breathes new life into a historic area centered around the 1,000-year-old Longxing Temple and its charming old streets filled with teahouses and restaurants.
Despite its rich cultural identity, the area had become dilapidated — with aging 1970s-80s buildings and closed factories. Since 2019, the city has been transforming it into a vibrant new urban center featuring commerce, culture, hotels, and residences.
The design smartly balances development costs and long-term operations while blending old heritage with modern functions through “Functional segmentation and dynamic integration.”
A beautiful example of respectful urban renewal! 🇨🇳✨
