Forms and Nature
How can the appearance of landscape give particular impression for those who see it, use it, or feel it? How can they represent the nature? Do they have specific shape or form to do that? And as designers, what do we do can reach the maximum effect on the expression of natural?
“...link and hybrids the human body to the body of architecture by a re-scenarization on the rules of all the natures of each situations...”
--François Roche
“...in natural there is no straight line or plane and that by contract there is an immense variety of curved forms...”
--Antonio Gaudi
There is no doubt that the appearance of one thing can leave the first impression for who see it or even just a glance. Landscape architecture, as an important link between human, nature, and the architecture itself , the structure, the shape, or the form of it can be an essential carrier of the impression for the relationship.
R&Sie use their concept of "spoiled climate" chameleon architecture, which links and hybrids the human body to the body of architecture by a re-scenarization on the rules of all the natures of each situations. In their projects "waterflux" and "I've heard about", they through the smooth irregular curve using to make their theory reality. The structures created by Antonio Gaudi, on the other hand, the "Park Guell" and the "Facade of the house" has fully reflected the completely free development of Gaudi's ideas based on an architecture inspired by nature. Obviously, his theory of there is an immense variety of curved forms is totally been proofed by his own naturalism structures. Compare the concept and actual work of R&Sie and Gaudi, it is not difficult to conclude that the form of shape can highlight the essence of nature is the irregular shape of the curve.
