Abstract

This article is about spatial and architectural occurrences, taking place in front of our eyes in Middle Kingdom. Impressive pace of development in Asian and global scale imposes capital surplus location in properties. We can observe creation of new housing areas, districts or even Chinese cities in unprecedented scale. With this new architecture and space creation, the question arises as to what is the quality of that built environment in China. At the same time, an exponential economical development, attracts unknown in this country social occurrences like: sudden population migration to cities, one child policy easing and creation of new middle class in society. Country urbanization burgeons very quickly, but government still has a lot of plans to develop. In this article author is trying to analyze spatial and architectural occurrences, which affect society in conditions of quick economical development. In this case, synergy in economics is a contribution to describe what are the conditions in creation of built environment in the cities. China is a country, where people treat tradition, beliefs and family as fundamental values. How to create a housing environment with free market rules in this society? Author is analyzing those occurrences, basing on literature criticism and own observations made “in situ”.
