خلاصة:
Urbanisation is still one of the social themes in developing countries. In China, the rapid process of urbanisation and economic growth bring to people not only more opportunities for creating new life and pursuing happiness, but also the challenge to face various and complex social, economical and environmental problems. Among them some are outstanding, like the shrinking plowland devoured by urbanisation, the withering of village abandoned by urbanisation, the inflating price of house and rent pushed by urbanisation, and the severe-completing and fighting for public resources evoked by urbanisation. While local dwellers are moving out and the out-comers flooding in, the traditional public context is heavily destroyed, and various environment issues are also emerging. Basing on a survey of Ro. Xihuangcun in Beijing, China, this article has made a near analysis on public space, trying to cast light on a model in urbanisation, and to draw some constructive suggestion and solution to this selected area as well.

Basing on a survey of Ro. Xihuangcun in Beijing, China, this article has made a near analysis on public space, trying to cast light on a model in urbanisation, and to draw some constructive suggestion and solution to this selected area as well.
For this article, public space for the bungalows will be studied and the very example is the road of Xihuangcun, which is the main area of life (see fig.
Survey and analysis Existing condition of Xihuangcun Road As the object of the survey, Xihuangcun Road, 300m long and 8m wide, is the main public space for the area of the 'village' Xihuangcun, which feeds more than 3000 fixed habitants and countless out-comers.
For primitive urbanised area like Xihuangcun, the openness of public space is relatively low, for which the space is mainly used by the local traders.
Reason of the formation According to the existing condition and some discussion of the public space of Xihuangcun Road, we can search for the reason of its formation on the following four points: a) unlawful occupation of public space; b) poor public management; c) low passion for public activities; and d) mistaken concept for public space design.
Otherwise, as the rehabilitation of these 1-2 storied bungalows is relatively easy and has been well expected by both local habitants and developers, the rough planning and design is taken as show by monotonous street space, little consideration of integration of public space in Temple Guhuangsi.
The construction of public space in the area of rapid urbanisation needs the combined effort from city planners and architects, local authorities, and all kinds of local habitants.
