The layout of traditional courtyards are characterized by north-south of symmetry and closed independent courtyards，which is a social network system that is formed with courtyard as center, neighborhood as trunk, community as plane, at the same time , which is the living environment consistent with human psychology , traditional culture and harmonious neighborhood. The buildings apply graphite main tone, courtyard-style, street and alley-style, which is symbolized by deep courtyard, wide street, narrow alley, lattices windows. Such as Beijing courtyards are generally in east-west alley, facing to south, and are separated by the north house, south house and west east wing, then are enclosed by a wall to form closed courtyard with a gate located in southeast corner.
We could redesign and recreate according to mode of thinking emphasized connection of all aspects and unity for reference to make efforts to make wanted design sketch.

In the whole space layout of courtyards, there is an ordinary gate located in the northeast corner, and inner with a wall for shelter, There is a spacious courtyard planted trees, various flowers and displayed goldfish in the mid, which is not only the center of layout, but also a place of lighting, walking, rest, housework, in addition, which meets the demands in the function, reflects the formal sense, plays a role in protecting owner private space and brings imaginative feeling.
In the modern space design, we could design a finite space for infinite place to create poetic and desirable space, just as a vivid description about blend of traditional buildings and natural scenery, which brings unrestricted fancy endlessly.

Secondly, enlightenment about composition of courtyards in modern space design
The courtyards also pay attention to the flexible change between composition and space. The express method would be applied in the modern space design and be learned. For instance, we could apply point, line and plane to reflect a sense of balance of overall space. At the same time, we also associate some approach of borrow, divide, isolation to reflect well-proportioned space, The approach play an effective role in the interior space design and bring an extensive and infinite space not a restricted space.
Courtyard interior space design is a divided space by partitions, screens, which play effects on defined space not incomplete segmentation. Thus spacious effects, virtual vibration raise. In order to be development of traditional architecture culture, exploration of essence and highlighting of natural special elements, we could associate interior function and exterior form with awareness.

We could create traditional decoration pattern by refinement, abstraction and simplification. In the procession, traditional decorative connotation would be retained to keep the traditional culture development based on combination betweefunction technology.

Nowadays, People pursue original, ecological and artistic design. Significantly, we should obtain and acquire design concept to remain unique quality and current beauty.
When we encounter transition between spaces and spaces, we could set a butter to keep height, volume, tone and style consistence, however, butter setting play a proper effect. After we are aware of these, we should design for customers and take function and spiritual needs into account.
In a short, the culture of traditional buildings is an essence in the world of buildings culture. Chinese buildings culture with national characteristic is of difference from other countries. In addition, design concept about highlighting of function and spirit bring reference for us. If we explore cultural connotation blended into modern space design deeply, national design would spring out, what"s more, the Chinese traditional cultural buildings culture would be more and more dynamic.
