设计师受邀在2017年的深港城市\建筑双城双年展上展示了名为“增量式村庄：提升21世纪广州的城市本土化探索”的作品，这也是她从哈佛大学设计学院毕业时的硕士论文主题。其导师为 Anita Berrizbeitia和Christopher Lee。

Commissioned by the Bi-City Biennale of Urbanism\Architecture (Shenzhen), Elaine Yolam Kwong presents “Incremental Village: Elevating the Urban Vernacular of 21st Century Guangzhou”, an exhibition showcasing her urban design Master’s thesis. This project was completed during her time at Harvard Graduate School of Design under the guidance of advisors Anita Berrizbeitia and Christopher Lee.

“增量式村庄”从历史、社会、经济和空间角度解构了石牌村—一座位于中国广州的典型城中村存在的错综复杂的层次。 该展览绘制了一幅随着时间逐步建立并通过自生变化自主维持的社会地理。根据城市理论和极具针对性的实地考察，对这种集合形式的细致解读集中于当地建筑类型的演变以及它们与日常生活内容的一一对应关系。城中村处于持续变化的状态，不断地通过新增和修改元素来形成真正开放的集体实体。

“Incremental Village” unpacks the intricate layers that exist historically, socially, economically, and spatially in Shipai Village, a typical urban village in Guangzhou, China. The thesis maps a social geography that is built incrementally over time and sustained through an autonomy of self-generated dynamics. Drawing on urban theory and highly specific local fieldwork, the nuanced reading of this collective form focuses on the evolution of the vernacular building types and their part-to-part relationships that respond to elements of everyday life. Urban villages are in a constant transitory state, continuously regenerating by addition and revision of parts to form a truly open-ended collective entity.

在过去的二十年里，城中村不断受到拆除和改造的威胁，这种威胁来自于自上而下的方法，与开发商联合实施的模式，导致项目完全建立在经济考虑之上。不过，随着新的法规将农村土地从封冻资本转变可转让资本，提升了其价值，中国近期农村土地改革趋势使村集体获得了建立自我发展能力的机会。广州发展的下一阶段必将是全面建立和保持城乡土地一体化。

For the past two decades, urban villages were under constant threat to be demolished and redeveloped with a top-down approach that implements a model in a coalition with developers, resulting with projects rooted only in financial rationale. However, recent momentum in China’s rural land reforms creates a new opportunity to empower and enable the village collective to self-develop, along with new regulations that lift their value from dead to transferable capital. The next stage in Guangzhou’s development must be to fully establish and sustain urban and rural land integration.

在将现有的当地秩序转化为当代都市生活时，设计师希望了解否有另一种选择，可以调和正规城市集中规划的固定惯例与城中村不确定的开放结构。通过调整今天的社会经济力量和促进建筑类型的联系，未来的框架将保持村庄的自主性，并将现有的人际关系融入新的公共空间，激发城市生活的积极展开。

Seeking to transform existing vernacular order into contemporary urbanism, the designer asks if there is an alternative that can reconcile the static conventions of central planning for the formal city with the indeterminate open structure of the urban village. By calibrating today’s socioeconomic forces and facilitating the linkages of building types, the future framework will maintain village autonomy and integrate existing human relationships in a new commons that stimulates the active unfolding of city life.
