Text description provided by the architects. The quadrangle courtyard house in Beijing is the most typical form of northern residential architecture in Beijing. After more than 800 years of development, it has finally formed a strict spatial settlement. After the liberation, it gradually became a "social" residence. There was no hierarchical connection. Different families living in the same courtyard house shared the same courtyard and alley. These public spaces did indeed bring residents closer together, but they also deprived residents of their privacy. Even many basic living needs could not be guaranteed.
