About Hui House Buugga Bandhigga Dhismaha

Buugga farshaxanka wuxuu sawiraa qaabka dhismaha ee Hui, dugsiga dhismaha hore ee gaarka ah, iyo dhaxal ku jira halista luminta Shiinaha oo xaqiijinaya isku-dhafka dhaqameed kumanaan sano dib u dhacay. Bog kasta wuxuu soo bandhigaa macluumaad dhamaystiran oo si fudud loo fahmi karo, markii la isku dul mariyo, waxay isu beddelaan muuqaal 3D oo qurux badan oo qaabka Hui ah si loo soo jiito daawadayaal badan, oo soo bandhigaya faahfaahinta dhismaha oo leh tixraac meeleed iyo cabbiraad sax ah iyo sidoo kale muuqaalka dhaqanka gobolka Hui ee ceeryaamaha ah.

Production Technology
Through Historic Building Information Modeling (HBIM), including 3D scanning, texture capturing for patterns of wood, stone, and brick carvings of authentic ancient Huizhou residences, depth-layered 2D images are sliced from digital models, and printed onto acetate fiber papers to enhance the visual depth and clarity, forming interactive "windows" with proportions of Hui-style buildings, allowing for a dynamic exploration of architectural details and spatial relationships.
Design Challenge
Research indicates that Hui studies, as one of only three prominent local scholarly traditions in China, face risks due to its inland geographical and historical contexts.

Field research shows that Hui architecture as a crucial cultural heritage is fading: Neglect, poor maintenance, and auctions are causing Hui architectural groups to vanish from the misty Huangshan and collective memory. Also, its construction skills, the core intangible cultural heritage, are nearing extinction.
Research
Hui-style architecture is a focal part of Hui cultural heritage, as it embodies both the tangible heritage of habitats and the intangible heritage of construction techniques. Based on architectural analysis, the Hui style is China's sole architectural tradition that merges southern loft structures with northern courtyards, a fading heritage verifying the integration between the Central Plains civilization and the ancient Yue culture, an essential part of the Chinese cultural fabric.
Inspiration
This project explores iconic Hui-style architecture's axial symmetry layout and section expansion in depth, which is presented by intricate front views but a uniform side view. So when stacked, the "windows" as depth-layered illustrations with spatial references showing an immersive miniature Hui house, which creates a 3D learning journey, a unique educational and exhibitive tool for preserving and understanding architectural heritage.
Project Duration
Launched in Jan 2023 in Boston, prototype bound in Suzhou, China. The project finished in Oct 2023 and was exhibited in HuiZhou Museum, and Bengbu Museum, China.
Operation Flow
Upon first glance, a see-through window from the cover to the back attracts readers to Hui-style architecture. As pages turn, iconic sections with narratives and extended details lead readers to a self-paced tour through the building. Layered pages allow users to pause between two sections to observe spatial relationships and different perspectives. This interaction makes ancient, intricate concepts accessible and engaging, fostering a profound impact on spreading Hui cultural heritage.
