Abstract

In recent years, as society advances and cultural heritage awareness increases, the conservation and utilization of historic buildings have gained more attention in urban planning and design. However, access to these buildings is often challenging for individuals with limited mobility, such as the elderly and disabled. This study focuses on a representative historic building in Tianjin: Guangdong Hall. The paper explores the theoretical basis of the accessible design of historical buildings, and through the renovation of the Guangdong Hall, a series of methods for retrofitting the interior and exterior accessible spaces of historical buildings are sorted out. It aims to provide a reference for the accessible design of historical buildings in order to promote a more inclusive and sustainable urban environment.
