Research on the Protection of Cultural Heritage of Folk Houses and Architecture and the Improvement of Living Environment Based on Sustainable Development

The accelerated development of urbanization has caused residential buildings with high historical and cultural value in suburban and remote areas of cities to face the problem of being "renewed" by modernization and urbanization.In order to realize the sustainable development of the protection of residential architectural cultural heritage, this paper chooses GS province as the study area, and analyzes the spatial distribution characteristics and balance of the residential architectural cultural heritage through the nearest-neighbor index, the grid dimension model and the imbalance index.The factors affecting the spatial distribution of residential and architectural cultural heritage were also investigated by means of geographic probes.The average nearest-neighbor ratio of residential and architectural cultural heritage in GS province is 0.781, and the Z score is -2.316<0, which indicates that its spatial distribution is mainly in the form of overall agglomeration and local disaggregation.The difference between the capacity and information dimension of different types of residential and architectural cultural heritage ranges from 0.206 to 0.327, and the spatial distribution of residential and architectural cultural heritage is mainly affected by natural geography, history and culture, and road traffic factors.Based on the spatial distribution characteristics of the residential architectural cultural heritage, a framework for the revitalization and utilization of residential architectural cultural heritage in a hierarchical manner and a protection and utilization pattern are proposed, and the spatial function of the architectural pattern is refined with the concept of sustainable development, and a method for the sustainability optimization of the living environment is designed.The protection of residential architectural cultural heritage and the improvement of the living environment need to be adapted to the local conditions, and the appropriate amount of development on the basis of preserving the originality of cultural heritage can provide new opportunities for the revitalization and inheritance of residential architectural cultural heritage.
