This studio aims to introduce graduate students an approach from Asian eco-cultural urbanism in planning research. The design capability needed to find innovative and sustainable strategies based on natural and cultural principles for the next lap of community development will be emphasised. The studio has the following objectives:
1. Performing Lifecycle Assessment (LCA) early in site analysis of the designing stage;
2. Integrate and apply Life’s Principles in sustainable eco-cultural development and design;
3. Critically develop new system design based on local organisms; and
4. Seek radical simplicity in community planning from a cultural repertoire* of vernacular architecture and settlement/regional ecology based on Life’s Principles, Biological Strategies and System Design concepts.
* Definition: “the complete list or supply of skills, devices, or ingredients used in a particular field, occupation, or practice.” (http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/repertoire accessed 13 June 2014)This studio aims to introduce graduate students an approach from Asian eco-cultural urbanism in planning research.

透過對國內城鄉或島嶼聚落實際案例之歷史回顧、現況踏堪、居民訪查、社區參與、空間分析、議題討論、綜合診斷、發展定位、計畫目標、發展策略、綱要計劃、規劃配置、細部設計等，研擬研究案例再發展之最佳方案，供地方相關主政者從事城鄉空間改造建設之發展藍圖。經由建教合作之實例操作，讓學生得以更真實的體驗城鄉地域性之社會結構與空間結構特質，更投入的構思城鄉永續發展與社區總體營造之實踐模式。
Through historical review of actual cases of domestic urban and rural or island settlements, current situation visits, resident interviews, community participation, spatial analysis, issue discussions, comprehensive diagnosis, development positioning, planning goals, development strategies, outline plans, planning configurations, and details Design, etc., and prepare the best plan for the redevelopment of the study case to provide a development blueprint for relevant local administrators to engage in urban and rural space transformation and construction. Through the practical operation of construction-education cooperation, students can more truly experience the social structure and spatial structure characteristics of urban and rural areas, and become more immersed in conceiving practical models for sustainable urban and rural development and overall community construction.
