Research Abstract |
The townscape is always changing gradually by accumulation of various design activities on micro level, and therefore the validity of new design depends on the emergence of aesthetic order on macro level. Accordingly, the viewpoint of regarding townscape as "complex adaptive system" is very fruitful to analyze the aesthetic order of townscape. In this research, the following results are obtained. 1. We explained the validity of regarding townscape as complex adaptive system from the semiotic viewpoint. 2. We clarified that the townscape composed of micro elements generates the emergence of aesthetic order on macro level from various viewpoints through the analysis of townscape of historical city Kyoto, using semiotic analysis, Geographical Information System, and simulation techniques of townscapes. 3. We extracted various design principles from the townscape of Hillside Terrace, designed by Fumihiko Maki, which has been grown gradually for 35 years in modern city of Tokyo. 4. We considered the publicness that takes on important roles to induce the mutual interaction of micro elements based on the concept of social capital. 5. We constructed an interesting computer simulation model to visualize the emergence of macro spatial pattern through the interaction of micro elements, in order to analyze the urbanization process from the viewpoint of self organization. In conclusion, we can contribute to clarify the design principles of aesthetic order of townscape, by regarding townscape as self-organizing and complex adaptive system.
