　　逆向空间梳理：由鲜鱼口到正东坊

　　研究区域明代为正东坊，近代称前门东区或鲜鱼口，承载泄洪、漕运之责，长巷(一至五条)与草场(一至十条)诸胡同多南北向而曲折，潜隐区域曾经的自规划密码：貌不惊人，肌理独异。惜近十年渐渐沦为都市核心的衰落区域，破败的街巷院落与周边现代化的城区形成剧烈反差。

　　有方工作坊基于对区域现存胡同、院落和建筑的逐一空间调研，挖掘、整理现存空间历史资料，对区域空间演化进行全面更新、梳理，探求透过胡同肌理与建筑风貌保护，北京旧城保护/更新的深层空间策略。

　　Reverse Spatial Combing: From Xianyukou to Zhengdongfang

　　The area in question was called “Zheng Dong Fang” in the Ming dynasty, now known as Qianmen East Area or Xian Yu Kou. It undertook the responsibilities of flood discharge and canal logistic transportation. The area is made up of numerous winding hutongs called “Changxiang” and “Caochang” meandering from north to south, its structure implying its natural formation. Though its appearance is not stunning, it is unique and full of history. In recent decades, the Qianmen East Area is gradually degenerating, becoming irrelevant and decadent, creating a stark contrast to its rapidly developing neighbouring areas.

　　Position workshop has conducted a series of research and data collection on the area’s existing hutongs, courtyards and architecture, simulating and exploring the area’s transformation and evolution, emphasising on key issues such as urban preservation, architectural protection and deeper spatial consideration strategies.
