This study is to build up a conceptual framework of vernacular region heritage conservation through an analysis on the local action processes of local community leaders' involvement in two communities. At first, I propose Heritage Value Spectrum (H.V.S.) which serves as an analysis tool. Then, I define the whole value of local cultural and ecological features, including spiritual, long-term and hidden benefits, etc. More over, I try to build up a draft conceptual framework of vernacular region heritage conservation. Second, I review some programs about local heritage conservation to analyze local action processes. We expect to answer the questions on how it works to make up the sense of space, the environmental value and the concept of space. Finally, I would like to study how local community leaders make this conceptual framework localized' and 'vernacular'. These processes not only construct the characteristics of local community, but also build up the totality and locality of a living setting. The transformation of an abstract and non-meaningful space to a meaningful place is similar to the processes mentioned as above. This process analysis not only achieves a solid base for local people's needs in terms of understanding the nature of a sustainable society, but also brings them together to step toward a sustainable community. We gain a conclusion that the formation of place characteristics is formed on both sides: one side is the total, spiritual base of the in-tangible heritage including both cultural identity and lifestyle, the others is the individual, material foundations of the tangible heritage including heritage conservation and unique appearances. |
