Spatial Planning and Reconstruction of Xi’an Industrial Architectural Heritage - a case study of the transformation of Northwest First Printing and Dyeing factory into Banpo International Art Park

A dynamic win-win situation exists between industrial heritage and the cultural and creative industries in China’s industrial parks. This depends on the mutual nature of their complementary and interactive relationships. Industrial heritage is defined and classified to allow it to play a role on a contemporary stage. Social research and economic research plays a guiding role to allow the parks to capture and utilize the values of industrial heritage. There must be consideration of how to capture and make best use of the resources of industrial heritage. Interaction between the cultural and creative activities and the industrial landscape in the parks is incorporated into the value chain. The scarce and unique industrial elements of the park allow the creation of cultural brands. A trinity study model was constructed based on the synthesis of creative design, atmosphere and industrial spirit of the park.
