This paper analyzes the ceramic workshops in Jingdezhen, Jiangxi, according to the inter-association of nature-economy-culture and the conversion between substance and energy from the angle of cultural geography. After field investigation of ecological environment in Jingdezhen and the large ceramic workshop, this article analyzes the manual mapping, measured data, the relative historical documents and archaeological materials. It points out the fact that the construction of ceramic workshops should follow strictly natural laws: it needs to choose the measures to suit for different conditions, the fabricationent to suit for different materials, and use the resource cyclically. In addition, it needs to study the building materials, the structure and the function, the production processes, the layout of the craft, which all have a basis in science, rationality, and rigor. This paper also points out that the ceramic craftsmen of Jingdezhen created the production environment which had proper lighting, ventilation, temperature and humidity. The construction, function, efficiency and the style of ceramic workshops achieve perfectly unification, which are the classic work of the human and nature getting along with each other harmoniously. All these explain the formation mechanism of the workshop landscape.
