Summary

A critical evaluation of the Cheng Zhi Hall restoration project in Hongcun revealed significant gaps in traditional dwelling conservation practices in China. The study identified issues such as vague descriptions of restoration measures, unclear markings on restoration drawings, and a lack of theoretical support for restoration practices. By comparing Chinese approaches with Italian case studies, researchers proposed optimization strategies to improve the planning and execution of traditional dwelling conservation efforts. This comparative analysis offers actionable insights for preserving cultural heritage while addressing practical challenges in restoration projects.
