A study of the pattern language of the exterior space design of village B&Bs in Luoyang, China

Abstract

China's rural tourism, buoyed by the "Rural Revitalisation Strategy," breathes life into the enchanting world of B&Bs. Despite its grace, research on village B&Bs' exterior spaces remains scarce, plagued by coarseness and imitation. Our endeavor takes flight, focusing on Luoyang's charming village B&Bs in Henan Province. Through mixed research, we unearth hidden gems while acknowledging areas that need refinement. Our ultimate goal is to pave the path for unparalleled growth in China's village B&B industry. We aspire to create an exemplary model language for exterior space design, inspiring designers, architects, and researchers. Let this language be a guiding light as they navigate the captivating world of village B&Bs.
