If the Chinese Dream reflects respect for and longing towards Chinese cultural identity, then the Shanghai Dream and Jing’an Dream further embody respect for the regional cultural identities of Shanghai and Jing’an. The demand for an exclusive urban complex and urban streetscape in Jing’an motivates us to explore a new type of linear urban space rooted in the lane culture, one that can inherit and pass on the cultural genes of the area. We aim to enhance the cultural confidence of Shanghai and Jing’an, offering fresh perspectives and opportunities for the efficient use of old city spaces through innovative urban design.
