Since 1980s, rapid urbanization progress took place in China. It promoted the development of urban economy and reflected the prosperity of the country. But at the same time, it brought side-effects among which urban village is one of the most significant problems. In this work, I'll use Tengzi Village in Nanjing as a case-study to illustrate the problems of urban village. And then make a new design proposal to the Tengzi village as a solution to the solve those problems under the direction of Urban catalyst theory, Locus theory as well as some other useful theories. In order to achieve the goal, design principles will be addressed. What's more, excellent domestic and overseas examples will be analyzed, and proper methods will be adopted to collect and analyze necessary data. The outcome of the paper is expected to find the suitable solutions to deal with the current problems of urban village, and further process of the revitalization will be discussed in the future.
