Emergent place-identity:place activation through the architectural restoration of a small Hakka household in the Hong Kong countryside
摘要
This paper discusses the cocreation of an emergent place-identity in a Hakka household in the Hong Kong countryside triggered by architectural restoration.Located in Kuk Po,a quintessential Hakka village that was established over 300 years ago,Yeung House was restored by the research team under a government-funded initiative to regenerate architectural values.Rebuilt in 1967,Yeung House has experienced decay and evolution over the years.It signifies the adaptive lifestyle of Hakka immigrants through its adapted siting,hybrid tectonics and modernised features.After restoration,Yeung House was repurposed into a base for education and research managed by the three houseowning villagers.Different activities were initiated by the villagers and coarranged by the research team.As a serendipitous outcome,the front yard of Yeung House has been activated into a multifunctional communal space.Subsequently,it is argued that a place-identity has emerged in Ng To and is influenced by the distinctiveness of the restored Yeung House and the continuity of the front yard.New meanings of the place have been created by the villagers through the practice of a potential,alternative lifestyle in the rural-urban parallel.
