Transforming the Rural Residence System Into a Modern Ecology

Abstract

Rural housing is a small eco-system consisting of ecological structures, ecological behavior and ecological concepts, which interact with one another and coexist in a symbiotic manner. Based on ecological unity, this paper carries out research on how to transform the rural housing system from its primitive ecology into a sustainable modern ecology, applying the ecological coupling design concept to guide the building of rural housing. The study emphasizes taking advantage of farmers′ behavior and consciousness to improve the ecological environment of rural housing, and then extends this further to realize livable residences that embody low consumption.
