「都市」可以說是現代文明的最大產物，現代文明由近代工業革命和資本主義的引爆而誕生，透過自由、平等的思想，向世界各地快速地展開，從19世紀開始到20世紀，全世界進入到空前的都市化時代，在工業革命之前10%～20%的都市人口，在工業革命後不斷的增加，估計二十一世紀中全世界將達到80%的都市人口比率，隨著都市人口的增加，舊有的都市形態在更新與汰換，而新的都市形態也將會出現，當都市人口增加的同時，高齡少子化的趨勢也在二十一世紀中浮現，面對這些不同的變化，建築與都市的關係將隨之轉變。
　　都市是由無數的建築物所構成，建築在都市的時間與空間向度中被定義，同時也積累形塑出都市空間的品質；設計精美的建築物不一定會構成舒適宜人的都市，而舒適宜人的都市又應該具備怎樣的生活品質？民主時代的都市計畫（設計）在創造出社會大眾（公共）的利益時，建築設計卻是在追求業主（私人）的最大利益與建築師的自由表現，特別是在當前台灣的都市環境中，建築與都市－這兩者應該要有怎樣的關係，這是建築專業者必須思考的，我們不能再局限於建築領域的探討，如何重新來思考建築與都市的關係，這是本課程的主要方向。本學期的設計題目如下：

題目：時間都市－(minus One & plus One)∞
　　都市是一個成長的個體，但成長並不一定是指由小變大、由少變多的過程。人們眼前所體會、經驗的都市空間，是由無數次的建築行為而形成，在時間的軸線上，建築記錄了都市的成長，建築可以做為一分鐘的都市，同時也可以做為千年的都市，一分都市、一日都市、一年都市、十年都市、百年都市、千年都市，透過時間都市的閱讀，我們將試圖找到從過去到現在的痕跡，並延伸出未來的都市樣貌。　　台中是一個已經有一百多年歷史的計畫都市。1895年在英國技師巴爾頓（W.K Barton）與濱野彌四郎的「台中市街區劃設計報告書」中，將台中市規劃為「棋盤狀」的計畫都市，而1900年1月6日正式公告了「台中市區改正」計畫，開啟了台中都市形態發展的基礎；1911年公布的「台中市區擴張計畫」中，規劃了約528公頃的區域，預計容納約５萬人口，人口密度約為100人／公頃，屬於２０世紀初期有著田園城鎮風貌的計畫都市，公園、學校、銀行、醫院、車站、工場、自來水廠等，這些西歐產業革命後的近代都市設施，紛紛開始出現在街頭，市區內縱橫著綠蔭大道和河川，當時的台中，可以說是亞洲第一個計畫都市。
　　當年的計畫都市範圍，也就是目前台中的舊市區，早年的舊市區因鐵路交通的便捷，促成商業活動的聚集而蓬勃發展，形成台中市最早的中心商業區，同時也是人們工作、居住與生活消費的區域。然而隨著人口的增加，汽車交通工具的普及，台中的周邊開始出現許多重劃區，人口郊區化現象慢慢形成，促使了舊市區漸漸的沒落。就以舊市區的中區為例，1980年代中，人口曾達到約５萬人，人口密度約為500人／公頃，屬於高密度的居住狀態，然而，隨著七十年代起陸續擴大的重劃區、七期的新市政中心、水湳經貿園區等等，持續的都市擴張，造成了舊市區的衰敗。現代都市不斷擴張的前提，在於人口與經濟不斷地成長，然而當整個台灣的人口成長率逐漸呈現負成長，而台中的空屋率也高達26%的狀況之下，我們已經到了應該重新思考戰後台中都市發展模式的成長神話，重新來面對舊市區的課題。
　　基於以上的思考，本課程將以台中市舊市區為本學期設計操作的範圍，藉由國外都市再生案例的分析比較，然後透過還原台中都市發展時間序列的空間演變過程，來重新觀察、閱讀台中舊市區。然後，藉由重新定義舊市區生活形態的討論，以部分改造的接力操作方式(minus One & plus One)，來進行舊市區的再生，經過多次提案操作之後，希望同學們擬定出新的空間準則，然後根據新的空間準則，來進行舊市區住宅群體再生的設計模擬，以提出新型態的都市發展模式。

"Urban" can be said to be the greatest product of modern civilization. Modern civilization was born from the modern industrial revolution and the explosion of capitalism. Through the ideas of freedom and equality, it spread rapidly to all parts of the world. From the 19th to the 20th century, the world entered an unprecedented era of urbanization. Before the industrial revolution, 10% to 20% of the urban population increased rapidly after the industrial revolution. It is estimated that the urban population ratio in the world will reach 80% in the 21st century. As the urban population increases, old urban forms are being updated and replaced, and new urban forms will also appear. As the urban population increases, the trend of older people and fewer births will also emerge in the 21st century. Faced with these different changes, the relationship between architecture and cities will change accordingly.
A city is made up of countless buildings. Buildings are defined in the time and space dimensions of the city, and they also accumulate to shape the quality of the urban space. Beautifully designed buildings may not necessarily constitute a comfortable and pleasant city, but what kind of quality of life should a comfortable and pleasant city have? While urban planning (design) in the democratic era creates benefits for the general public (public), architectural design pursues the best interests of owners (private individuals) and the free expression of architects. Especially in the current urban environment in Taiwan, what kind of relationship should be between architecture and city? This is something that architectural professionals must think about. We can no longer limit our discussion to the field of architecture. How to rethink the relationship between architecture and city is the main direction of this course. The design topics for this semester are as follows:

Title: Time City-(minus One & plus One)∞
A city is a growing individual, but growth does not necessarily mean the process of growing from small to large or from less to more. The urban space that people experience and experience before their eyes is formed by countless architectural actions. On the axis of time, architecture records the growth of the city. Architecture can be used as a one-minute city, but also as a thousand-year city, a one-minute city, a one-day city, a one-year city, a ten-year city, a hundred-year city, and a thousand-year city. Through the reading of time cities, we will try to find traces from the past to the present and extend the appearance of the future city. Taichung is a planned city with a history of more than 100 years. In 1895, British technician W.K. In the "Taichung Urban Planning and Design Report" written by Barton and Yashiro Hamano, Taichung was planned as a "checkerboard" planned city. On January 6, 1900, the "Taichung Urban Revision" plan was officially announced, laying the foundation for the development of Taichung's urban form. In the "Taichung Urban Expansion Plan" announced in 1911, an area of approximately 528 hectares was planned, and it was expected to accommodate approximately With a population of 50,000 and a population density of about 100 people per hectare, it was a planned city with a pastoral town style in the early 20th century. Parks, schools, banks, hospitals, stations, factories, water plants, etc., these modern urban facilities after the industrial revolution in Western Europe, began to appear on the streets. Green boulevards and rivers crisscrossed the urban area. At that time, Taichung could be said to be the first planned city in Asia.
The planned urban area at that time was the current old urban area of ​​Taichung. In the early years, the old urban area flourished due to the convenience of railway transportation, which promoted the gathering of commercial activities. It formed the earliest central business district in Taichung City and was also an area where people work, live and consume. However, with the increase in population and the popularization of automobile transportation, many rezonings began to occur around Taichung, and the phenomenon of population suburbanization gradually formed, prompting the gradual decline of the old urban area. Take the central district of the old urban area as an example. In the mid-1980s, the population reached about 50,000, with a population density of about 500 people per hectare. It was a high-density residential state. However, with the continuous expansion of rezoning since the 1970s, the seventh-phase new municipal center, Shuinan Economic and Trade Park, etc., continued urban expansion has caused the decline of the old urban area. The prerequisite for the continuous expansion of modern cities is the continuous growth of population and economy. However, when the population growth rate of Taiwan as a whole gradually shows negative growth, and the vacancy rate in Taichung is as high as 26%, we have reached the point where we should rethink the growth myth of the urban development model in the post-war period and face the issues of old urban areas again.
Based on the above thinking, this course will use the old urban area of ​​Taichung City as the scope of design operations for this semester. Through the analysis and comparison of foreign urban regeneration cases, and then by restoring the spatial evolution process of Taichung's urban development time series, we will re-observe and read the old urban area of ​​Taichung City. Then, through the discussion of redefining the life style of the old urban area, the regeneration of the old urban area will be carried out in a partial transformation relay operation (minus one & plus one). After many proposals, students are expected to formulate new spatial criteria, and then conduct design simulations for the regeneration of residential groups in the old urban area based on the new spatial criteria to propose a new urban development model.

Networking the Canteenscape Conducted by Shih-wei Lo Subject Description The everyday life of the city is crucial to the formation of the city morphology, and even the forge of its character and identity. Among varied modes of daily life, eating specially plays a dominant role bringing forth what a city is. Eating culture enlivens the city, whether by those who provides or consumes foods. A hidden world which has long been neglected but keeps imbuing the city with vigor and thrust is constituted by canteens on streets. They are often categorized as informal sector. However, if based on the research on the ‘arrival city’ phenomenon, those sprawling canteens along streets host most of immigrants from countryside and become temporary niches for their converting into citizenship of the city. An emergent paradigm of urban design caring for the bottom-up development of street life thus signals a new perspective intervening into the urban reality, specifically taking into account of Asian context.
