UPCYCLING IN COMMUNITIES: LOW CARBON DESIGN PROMOTES PUBLIC ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS AND OPTIMIZES SOCIAL

This paper aims toexplore the methods of user experience for reducing poverty. Proposing the design of life's "Hedonics quality" is the value of introducing user experience in Targeting poverty alleviation. Through the user-centered design process, the design method and process of user experience in Targeting poverty alleviation are constructed. Take the poor households B in Magang Village, Shunde County, Guangdong Province as an example. Considering the design method and process of user experience in Targeting poverty alleviation, from the three aspects of space, product and service, it proposes a systematic solution covering multiple levels of needs such as physiology, safety and social, and cooperated with the B family, and carried out feasibility verification of some solutions, completed the space renovation and product design work. The results show thatthe intervention user experiencedesigncan bring new ideas and methods to the poverty alleviation work.

Water management skills in the process of traditional village construction carry the wisdom and experience of ancient Chinese sages in understanding and utilizing nature, and are also an important manifestation of the formation and development of Chinese traditional water management culture. Taking Shen'ao Village in Western Zhejiang as a typical case, this paper focuses on how ancient sages created a unique water man agement system in Shen'ao Village based on a variety of water management forms through literature research and field investigation, and analyzes and studies the water management system in Shen'ao Village from four aspects of energy conservation, environment protection, health and comfort, and flexibility and long-term effectiveness, respectively, to explore the sustainable ecological concept behind the water management system. Through the study on the sustainability of the water management system in Shen'ao Village, excellent water management techniques and practical ideas are deeply excavated and drawn on, which can provide useful reference for the sustainable development of new rural construction in China.

Climate change is not only an issue relating to the environment but also the structure of our society. This paper is to discuss a new model of field study to support design to address climate change. The article uses a field study performed in China by an European design school as an example to explain the new model in more detail. This model has three main characteristics: this field study is an explorative process for design with a flexible frame; this field study is a transdisciplinary approach, and the process is an intercultural process. The transdisciplinary approach could provide a holistic solution to form the ‘new’ living. The team members from different cultures could make the process easier to sense the alternative living model and nurture a collective global vision of sustainable development. To conclude, the paper explore how an explorative, transdisciplinary.
