First, in the design of temples, we should pay attention to the requirements of geomantic orientation, that is to say, when choosing a site, we should try to sit facing south, with the best lighting, then sit facing east, then east facing west, and finally sit facing north, with the worst lighting. Unless it is a special case, it is generally not recommended to sit south facing north.
Second, we should fully consider the style and characteristics of temple design. There are many styles in temples. At present, the design of temples is mostly in Ming and Qing dynasties, mainly in Han dynasty, and others in Song dynasty.
Third, we should fully consider the investment budget of temple design. According to the investment budget, the temple will consider its cost requirements and the materials and techniques used in the design process with different investment budgets. Different technologies and investment budgets lead to different design and construction technologies and different values. Fourthly, the design of the temple should take into account the geological exploration requirements and soil quality requirements of its location. In the design process, the soil quality of the site should be fully considered, and reasonable and suitable foundation forms and seismic requirements should be adopted to ensure that the building can be built safely, effectively and reliably and meet the design life.
