Expressions of Local Identity via Architectural Practice in UNESCO World Heritage Sites
Via its investigations on three types of buildings, consisting of residential, religious, and educational structures, this research: (1) provides guidelines for the creation of local identity via architecture erected in the areas adjacent to UNESCO World Heritage sites; and (2) examines the mechanism in creating such an identity. As exhibited by the upcoming discussions, the economic, social, cultural and technological conditions are central not only for practical requirements and structural integrity of those buildings, but also for expressions of the local identity. In addition to maintaining a delicate balance between aesthetics, architectural realization, and local wisdom, the creations of the case studies engage all involving parties in the following five domains as well, which are: (1) generation of public consciousness; (2) design participation; (3) establishment of Heritage Academic Research Community; (4) recognitions for the values of the Thai identity; and (5), creative integration of stakeholders with community networks.
