Today, Architectural Knowledge: The author is excited to share the second part of nearly one hundred architectural tips for everyone to learn from. Without further ado, let’s dive into the main content:
21. Human visual perception patterns vary:
H ranges from 18° to 45°, focusing on local and detailed views;
2H ranges from 18° to 27°, capturing the whole;
3H is less than 18°, emphasizing overall and environmental factors.
22. The golden ratio is 1:1.618.
23. Ventilated roofs can only block solar radiation but do not provide insulation. They are most suitable for southern climates.
24. The overall layout should be adapted to local conditions, ensuring a close relationship between buildings and their surroundings to save space. Properly address the relationships among individuals and groups, space and form, as well as greenery and decorative elements. Additionally, thoughtfully organize lighting, ventilation, orientation, traffic flow, and pedestrian movement.
25. Hot water heating systems provide comfortable and stable warmth, making them ideal for residential buildings and kindergartens. Steam heating systems heat quickly and suit intermittent heating needs, such as in halls and theaters.
To make a building visually vibrant and dynamic, contrast techniques should be applied in its composition.
27. Types of contrast techniques include axis contrast, volume contrast, directional contrast, virtual-real contrast, and color contrast.
To make a pillar appear slimmer, use dark and cool colors.
29. The Brazilian Congress Hall employs contrast and coordination techniques in its overall design.
30. Exhibition buildings typically utilize a nested spatial combination form.
The composition of outdoor spaces mainly depends on how individual buildings and building groups are combined.
For example, the layout of St. Mark’s Square in Venice, Italy, emphasizes contrasts between different spatial areas.
When dealing with gentle slopes, parallel contour lines should be used in the layout.
34. Effective area of a building = Building area – Structural area.
35. Increasing window area makes it easier to solve lighting and ventilation challenges.
36. Ancient Chinese wooden structures can be broadly classified into three types: beam lifting, bucket penetrating, and well dry.
The fundamental principles of architectural composition include master-slave relationships and emphasis, contrast and resonance, balance and stability, rhythm and cadence, as well as proportion and scale.
The basic rule of architectural composition is to achieve diversity and unity.
For buildings taller than eight floors, elevators have become the primary mode of transportation.
40. Building modules are categorized into basic modules, expanded modules, and sub-modules.
