The Visual Expression in the Shape Design of Ecological Architecture

Abstract:

Because of environment deterioration and energy shortage during urban development, the ecological condition of the human environment gets attention. Developing the ecological architecture greatly becomes necessary. The rationality of ecological architecture represents not only in technology advancement and energy saving, but also in aesthetic standard, whose importance surpasses the former, in some sense. In this paper, it is analyzed on aesthetic variation, constitutive way and visual expression of the shape design of ecological architecture to support the research of the visual expression in the shape design of ecological architecture in theory.
