Authors: Xiaohan Wang

Abstract:

In the rapid urbanization process, urban design concepts are shifting towards people-oriented approaches. Emphasizing the pedestrian experience promotes urban livability and sustainable development. In mountainous cities, the inconvenience of transportation caused by complex terrain makes pedestrian-friendly architectural design one of the entry points for problem-solving. This paper mainly takes the high-rise residential area of Bai Xiang Ju in Chongqing as an example to explore the architectural design strategies of mountainous cities under the concept of pedestrian-oriented urban design, providing valuable references and insights for similar urban architectural designs.

Keywords: pedestrian city, Bai Xiang Ju, mountain architecture, pedestrian infrastructure, pedestrian-oriented design
