Western Style Eastward: The Derivation of Architectural Art and Design in Harbin (1898-1945)
Abstract
its inner blood. Harbin has attracted the worlds attention with its unique architectural design style since the 19th century. From the early Russian and Japanese colonial period, European and Japanese styles were introduced. Harbins architectural design history has not only witnessed
the changes of an era, but also demonstrated the fusion and symbiosis of multiple cultures. In the context of globalisation, how can Chinese
art participate in the process of globalisation with a unique Chinese consciousness and visual image, how to face up to the existence of exotic
transplanted cultures, and how to incorporate foreign design language symbols into Chinese design methodology? These are the questions
that need to be solved urgently. Harbins architectural design is not only a display of architectural art, but also a microscopic mirror of the
progress of human civilisation and cultural exchange. Through in-depth study of the philosophical thinking, cultural interactions and aesthetic
concepts behind its design, we can not only have a better glimpse of the cultural concepts of urban landscape, but also have a deeper understanding of the development of human civilisation and the future direction of Chinese architectural design.
