Abstract:

It is believe that the experience of landscape for people is the complex content in many ways, which is based on the sight people looks, the body perception and the experienced aesthetic object are regarded as the landscape, yet, what the focus of the landscape perception researches has changed from biology to social culture as the foundation. This paper points out that the landscape is not only a space place, but also can reflect people's ideology, moreover, landscape is even more a kind of meaning experience foe people. Using Saussure 's Signifier and Signified Theory and Pierce's three theory of types to discuss the meaning of the landscape symbol, the landscape is regarded as a symbolic text, referring to the relationship between signifier and signified, emphasizing on the landscape symbols to show the meaning recognized by the audiences by means of the the specific form. On this basis, the meaning representation of the landscape symbol can be divided into three types: image symbol, indexing symbol, symbolic sign, and points out the complexity of the symbol is the highest, which needs the viewer has the relevant cultural background. Finally this paper states the ambiguity and openness of the landscape significance, and the relationship with the context design, aiming to provide references and inspirations for the related designing.
