In modern society, people often misunderstand sky burial because of cultural and religious differences between different ethnic groups, and consider it a barbaric and primitive way of burial.

"Since ancient times, human emotions have been inextricably linked to architecture"
Design Background
Against the background of China's rapid economic development and accelerated urbanization, traditional villages have been impacted to a certain extent.
The self-development of Xiongfan Village has created many problems: a large number of young adults in the village have left to work in their hometowns, and the old people left behind are unable to renovate their old houses, resulting in the destruction of some of the traditional houses, while at the same time, the traditional living conditions are unable to satisfy the villagers' needs for modernized life.
The spatial pattern of Xiongfan Village consists of two main areas: the main body of the traditional residential group (the old village and the new village of the new construction group.) The overall formation of the quality of residential buildings to ensure a large-scale, complete nature of the historical architectural complex, the protection of the better.

RESIDENTIAL ANALYSIS
The design was done for each of the five sections, making the residential section more personal, the commercial section more diverse, and embedding the entertainment section directly into the different buildings. It also solves the problem of road congestion and the problem of spatial bullying in office buildings.

Design Background
The Mathare Valley is one of the oldest and used to be one of the worst slum areas in Nairobi. People live in 6 ft. x 8 ft. shanties made of old tin and mud. There are no beds, no electricity, and no running water. People sleep on pieces of cardboard on the dirt floors of the shanties. There are public toilets shared by up to 100 people and residents have to pay to use them. Those who cannot afford to pay must use the alleys and ditches between the shanties. "Flying toilets" are plastic bags used by the residents at night, then thrown into the Nairobi River, which is the source of the residents' water supply.
