Abstract

In the process of accelerating urbanization in China, complex social problems have forced urban and rural design to adopt a broader response strategy, and design methods generally focus on the abstract category dominated by relational design, and lack of design research from the environmental ontology, resulting in a disconnect between design and physical space. Based on the ontology of urban and rural environment, this paper takes industrial site transformation, old city renewal and rural construction as examples, uses observations, fieldwork and case studies methods to observe and study the current situation of space, and takes field evolution, artificial construction and natural integration as the starting point, trying to explore the organic order contained in the environment, so as to put forward the possibility of organic design methods for solving complex social and technical system problems. It is found that the organic order in the environment has the characteristics of adaptability, coherence, coordination and symbiosis, which can better deal with many complex problems within the social system, provide basic basis and relevant ideas, form a more flexible and diversified design method, and help urban and rural transformation.
