Some people think the newly built houses should be the same as the old housing styles in local areas. Others argue that local authorities should allow people to build houses in their own style. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
Many feel it is crucial that homeowners possess the freedom to
design
their own property, while others feel there should be restrictions. In my opinion, the value of preserving the identity of a neighbourhood outweighs the rights of property owners.
Those in favour of unfettered choice argue this
can inspire and motivate. When an owner has the ability to express an individual vision, they are naturally more invested in developing their property. Examples of this
abound in newer cities such
as Shenzhen in mainland China. There is little history to disturb and therefore
architects are encouraged to pursue a vision in concert with owners that
is
aesthetically pleasing and novel. The result is modern homes and offices that push the boundaries of Change the verb form
are
design
and in the aggregate contribute energy and vitality that can enliven, or even revitalize in some cases, an urban area.
However
, in the majority of ,communities it is more important to prioritize cultural preservation. This
is because the unique character of many cities and neighbourhoods is today under threat from the irreversible effects of globalization. A standout instance of this
would be the old quarter in Hanoi in Vietnam. The government has imposed strict regulations in recent years as a growing middle class has attempted to modernize their living conditions. To preserve the historic character of the city, many new homes must meet certain guidelines, including having classic wooden shutters, employing older building materials and not demolishing noteworthy homes. These efforts in Hanoi and similar cities conserve essential and unique aspects of history and culture.
In conclusion, despite endeavours to allow for freedom of expression in design
, I believe that it is generally more valuable to preserve historically relevant design
principles. Governments must naturally balance this
with a desire to modernize.Submitted by a0111590317 on
