Research on multicultural architecture is significant for understanding the collision and fusion of diverse cultures.

Utilizing methods such as typology, spatial schema, space syntax, cluster analysis, and regression analysis, we investigate their gene mapping and formation mechanisms.

These variants can be classified into three types. Multicultural plan variants include three generative mechanisms: \"Imitation,\" \"Compromise,\" and \"Variation.\" The spatial layout, central positioning, and traffic flow lines reflect the \"Imitation\" of local planar prototypes.

Our analysis, using previously established categorisations of language use and merits of theory appropriation, shows that Schumacher employs various modes of language use in <em>The Autopoiesis of Architecture</em> to reference both prior instances of autopoiesis.

Secondly, amidst the general trend of declining total population and slowing growth, it is necessary to reasonably guide the aggregation and distribution of population within urban spaces based on the resource carrying capacity of each river basin.

The residents of Lansing may prefer the distant green space for recreational activities and create a way to participate in civic duty. The research can not only provide a basis for Lansing to formulate the appropriate resource management rules and norms and promote the accumulation of residents' social capital, but also provide a reference for urban green space planning in other areas.
