Abstract

In the context of accelerating globalization and growing frequency of extreme climate events, the preservation of regional cultural heritage and the pursuit of climate-responsive design present substantial challenges. In this study, a “Nature-Technology-Culture” tri-dimensional collaborative framework is proposed, offering a novel paradigm for the intelligent transformation of traditional craftsmanship. Drawing inspiration from the traditional “hexagonal eye” bamboo weaving technique of Pingjiang, Hunan, this study develops a modular soundscape installation system that combines fractal geometry reconstruction with parametric control technologies. The system integrates a bamboo framework with oil-paper composite cladding, achieving both cultural preservation and climate adaptability. A dynamic coupling mechanism between environmental data and soundscapes is established through an intelligent platform, enabling real-time mapping of climatic conditions to acoustic performance. Simulation results reveal that the optimized system effectively replicates the dynamic sound characteristics of “whispering bamboo forests,” validating the effectiveness of the “Craft-Algorithm-Climate” closed-loop approach. This study provides a foundation for the modern reinterpretation of traditional crafts and proposes new pathways for climate-responsive rural design.

AI-Empowered Cultural Heritage Integration: A Climate-Responsive Acoustic Design Framework

In the context of accelerating globalization and growing frequency of extreme climate events, the preservation of regional cultural heritage and the pursuit of climate-responsive design present substantial challenges. In this study, a “Nature-Technology-Culture” tri-dimensional collaborative framework is proposed, offering a novel paradigm for the intelligent transformation of traditional craftsmanship. Drawing inspiration from the traditional “hexagonal eye” bamboo weaving technique of Pingjiang, Hunan, this study develops a modular soundscape installation system that combines fractal geometry reconstruction with parametric control technologies. The system integrates a bamboo framework with oil-paper composite cladding, achieving both cultural preservation and climate adaptability.
