空間裡的水平線與曲線

「集會所」?一座由木頭所搭建的屋架,還是一棵樹就足以提供人群集會空間?「集會」的狀態不應被空間的框架給限制住,定義一座集會所的時候,不一定需要明確的牆壁邊界。站在那魯灣街的堤防看出去,一望無際的水平線是令人感動的,環境中沒有物件與物體,僅是一片融合在一起的風景。集會所能不能與大地成為一體呢?雖然無法將人造建築完全與自然環境相等比擬,但仍然思考著要如何嘗試趨近、討論 「建築就是環境的一部份」。

空間中看似隨意的曲線,其實是經由反覆確認日照角度所形成的。在構築時是被清楚整理過的弧,不讓零碎隨意扭動的曲線影響建造的效率。即便如此,經過數學計算的曲線,人們並不會在空間中意識到四個虛構參考的圓,而是自然流竄於其中。

觀看風景的意識感

一般而言,建築被當作觀看的重點,而在集會所看出去的風景應當比看著建築的時刻還多。拔高的瞭望塔提供了三百六十度閱讀環境的機會,立起的牆體讓人們在旋轉向上的過程,就像爬山行經的過程一樣,只能看見一側方向的景色,而當繞行至最高點時,不知不覺已瀏覽整個山與海地貌的全景,整個集會所空間企圖以觀看風景的方式,去建構人與環境上的連結。

Horizontal lines and curves in space

What is a “community center”? A roof truss made of wood, or is a tree enough to provide space for people to gather? The state of "assembly" should not be limited by the framework of space. When defining a meeting place, it is not necessary to have a clear wall boundary. Standing on the embankment of Naluwan Street, the endless horizon line is touching. There are no objects and objects in the environment, just a piece of scenery that blends together. Can the assembly be one with the earth? Although it is impossible to completely compare man-made buildings with the natural environment, I still think about how to try to approach and discuss "architecture is a part of the environment".

The seemingly random curves in the space are actually formed by repeatedly confirming the sunlight angle. During construction, the arcs are clearly arranged, so that the scattered and twisted curves do not affect the efficiency of construction. Even so, with the mathematically calculated curves, people are not aware of the four imaginary reference circles in space, but flow naturally within them.

A sense of consciousness in viewing the scenery

Generally speaking, one should spend more time during an assembly in the building viewing the scenery than looking at the building. The elevated observation tower provides the opportunity to read the environment in 360 degrees. The erected wall allows people to rotate upwards, just like the process of climbing a mountain. One can only view the scenery in one direction when ascending to the highest point. And without knowing one has browsed the panorama of the entire mountain and sea landforms. The entire assembly of spaces attempts to build a connection between people and the environment by viewing the scenery.
