    The intertidal zone and waterfront – A study on the morphological mechanism of the marshland zone in the south of Guangzhou city
    (Lodz University of Technology Press, 2023) Wu Jianchi; Feng Jiang
    This paper analyzes the influence of urban elements on urban plots and their mutual transformation process in history and finds that the intertidal zone plays a key role in the cycle of urban expansion into the river. Historically, river canals and roads were both the transportation lines on which plots depended, while the ramparts fixed the city site, southern city became waterfront area and between the Pearl River was the intertidal zone. With the sedimentation and artificial filling, new levees, waterfront areas and new canals were born in intertidal zone, while old canals silted up into roads or eventually disappeared. However, the construction of the Long-Bund break the cycle, creating a stable hard boundary beside Pearl River and exhausting the scope for expansion of southern city. As a result, the Long-Bund turned to high-rise buildings, forming the financial and commercial center of Guangzhou at that time. On the other hand, it can be observed that the new types of buildings on the Long-Bund were still partly constrained by the logic of traditional plots. The Long-Bund area was the result of a series of historical mechanisms and events.

    Fringe Belt Phenomenon in Chinese metropolis: A Case Study of Guangzhou
    (Lodz University of Technology Press, 2023) Siliang He; Yinsheng Tian
    Fringe belts are preserved zones formed fromthe former marginal area embedded in the city centre during the process of urban development, which has historical and cultural value, ecological value and recreational value. Guangzhou is the central city in South China with dense river system. In modern era, the ancient city wall was demolished and roads were built on the wall base. The Pearl River waterway and the demolished city walls had a persistent influence on the formation and layout of the fringe belts, which made the formation and evolution course of Guangzhou fringe belts different from other cities. The article divides the formation and transformation period of the fringe belts, analyses the morphological characteristics and evolution mechanism of fringe belts in these stages, and interprets the urbanization and reorganization process of Guangzhou on a new level.

    Study on Clustering of Urban Morphology Control Units Based on Risk Theory
    (Lodz University of Technology Press, 2023) Ge Xuan; Wang Guoguang; Zhang Shifu
    With the increasing threat of new types of risks from global climate change, the ‘uncertainty’ emphasized by the risk theory has become the most urgent problem to be faced in modern urban planning and governance. As the main element of the basic structure of the city, the urban morphology control unit should reflect the sensitivity, vulnerability and resilience of the city to deal with new types of risks, but the analysis on this issue needs to be further improved. This study selects Guangzhou, China as the case study city, with reference mainly to the risk society theory and risk city theory derived from the former one, trying to start from the three aspects of social group attributes, renewable energy application potential and ecological water storage potential, to classify and analyse ‘risk-based’ Guangzhou urban morphology control units. The results show that the Guangzhou urban morphology control units could be clustered into two types from social group aspect and five types from clean and recycled technology aspect, thus providing targeted advices. This study helps enrich the connotation and practical value of urban morphology theory.

    Urban Corners in Guangzhou: Desing, Morphology and Everyday Life, 1757–1949
    (Lodz University of Technology Press, 2023) Deng Hao; Chen Fei
    Urban corners are a distinct form of public space, yet little has been written about how this type of space has emerged and developed from a historical perspective. Addressing this gap, this paper presents a historical study of the spatial forms of urban corners in China. We reframe the Everyday Urbanism paradigm as an analytical framework to investigate the dynamics of the corners through three particular dimensions: design governance, morphological characteristics and everyday use. Drawing on historical sources such as maps, planning documents, old photographs and drawings, private written records and existing studies, we apply the framework to examine the transformation process of urban corners in the historic city core, Guangzhou, from 1757 to 1949. Findings suggest that urban corners have the potential to become an important cultural heritage in China’s historic cities. It concludes by discussing the implications of these findings for culture-led regeneration in contemporary China.
