略论地球重力场对建筑设计的制约及其呈现

A Brief Comment on the Restriction of Earth's Gravity Field on Architectural Design and Its Appearances

重力垂线决定了我们生存在一个横观各向同性空间中。从物理环境到生理机能,再到空间知觉,无不被其制约,它并且进一步渗透到意识领域,形成了多种多样的垂直象征。建筑设计也在层化和线条处理等各方面反映了象征的存在。重力是生活空间的恒定条件,是一个常量。然而日新月异的空间技术,已经让我们看到了重力将来成为变量直至消失的可能。今天深入研究重力对建筑所起到的始于物理止于象征的影响,意义就在于,当有机会进行零重力建造时,我们不必从零开始。

The gravitational vertical determines that the space which we live in is a transversely isotropic one.From the physical environment to the physiological function,even the spatial perception,all are restricted by it.Furthermore the gravitational vertical sneaks into the realm of consciousness,forming various vertical symbolisms.Architecture design also expresses these factors in stratification,elevation lines etc.Gravity is an invariant prerequisite of our global space.It is a constant.However,the space technology has advanced at a breathless pace.Now we have caught a sight of the possibilities that the gravity could be variable even disappears in some particular environments.The significance of our current intensive study on the influence of gravity from physics to symbolism is that meaning in that we don't have to start from scratch when we have the opportunity to build in a zero-gravity condition.
