参数化符号学——大量信息环境下的设计

PARAMETRIC SEMIOLOGY:THE DESIGN OF INFORMATION RICH ENVIRONMENTS

建筑是一种交流系统,它具备组织与建立交流互动空间的独特社会功能。社会秩序依赖于空间秩序。建成环境自发演变为一种指意系统,即构成和塑造能够影响主体的行为模式的建成环境的符号线索(形态特征、颜色、纹理、环境参数等)。参数化符号学的意义在于超越传统建成环境自发形成的指意过程,建立起更加复杂和精确的指意系统,组织和架构更加丰富的交流互动。基于主体的建模技术成为实现参数化符号学的强大工具,借助这一工具,建筑所构建的未来生活进程将在设计过程中得到建模和评估,最终推动设计的迭代和优化。

Architecture is a system of communication with an unique social function： to order and frame communicative interaction. Social order depends on spatial order. The built environment spontaneously evolves into a system of signification, which consists of the semiotic clues （morphological features, colors, textures, environmental parameters, etc.） that constitute and characterize a certain territory can influence the behavioral mode of the agent. Parametric semiology aims at transcending this traditional spontaneous semiosis and establishing a more complex and precise system of signification to order and frame a more available interaction. Multi-agent modeling techniques provide a powerful new tool for parametric semiology. With this tool, the future life based on architectures can be modeled and assessed, which will carry forward the iteration and optimization of design.
