description Abstract The relationship between traditional village landscape genes and the geographical environment is closely intertwined, exhibiting notable spatial differences and cultural characteristics during scale transformations. To effectively elucidate the formation mechanisms of these landscape genes, it is essential to construct a multi-scale analytical framework that integrates multiple dimensions. This paper address these challenges by expanding the sample selection range and combining both qualitative and quantitative analyses of landscape genes across various scales. Subjective judgments reveal that macro conditions influence microscopic responses, which, in turn impact outcomes at the micro level. Similarly, quantitative analyses underscore the significant role of geographic factors in shaping architectural patterns, illustrating the interplay of geographic, cultural, and economic factors across different dimensions. Convergence analysis challenges the simplistic correspondence between subjective judgment and quantitative findings, indicating that macro-level geographic environmental features may not exert as substantial an influence on micro-level architectural clusters as previously assumed. Instead, there are instances where the internal spatial structure of clusters may transcends geographic constraints. The research paradigm centered on landscape genes offers a valuable approach to identifying the factors contributing to spatial disparities in traditional villages and advancing our understanding of the processes and mechanisms governing landscape gene inheritance, expression, and variation.
