Abstract

Architects' response on geographical culture has become an innovation of long-span building design, though it has always been overlooked by designers. This paper analyzes and discusses the connotation of regionalism and its importance on the configuration of long-span buildings. In addition, it summarizes and compares examples concerning natural and cultural factors of regional condition. In this way, this paper concludes that the exploration of local nature and humanity, and the communication of the inner spirits of regional culture are the main directions of the innovation and regional expression of long-span architecture.
