系統原型操作的建築設計教學策略

建築學中兩個最重要的支柱：空間與物質，是建築學中最相互協作，也最相互拮抗的兩大力量，戰後因混凝土與鋼構技術的成熟與主流化，導致建築設計者減少在物質構法上的專研與投資，轉而向空間理論發展，造成物質理論與發展在設計教學上被邊緣化。然而空間與感知理論，亟需物質操作技術，才能使建築學得以推進。物質科技包含了許多的面向，諸如性能與美學的平衡、建構效益極大化的富勒理論，而當下熱門的數位演算與製造，亦算是從設計理論過渡到物質操作技術的典範。工藝技術卻需要透過建築工程學的轉譯，才能真的成為建築現實的存在，達到建築的實用價值標準。基於前述的理念，透過材料與構成方法所建構出的原型作為操作與研究的基礎，再逐漸的往上與整體的機能、涵構、現象進行媒合。課程知識以建築系統以及細部實務為基礎，轉換到設計上著重在介面（Interface）以及組構（Composition）兩個命題操作，這種教學方法，側重將原型設計的角色突顯出來，進而可以在較為單純的條件下，探索更深入的建築系統構成關係。

The two most important pillars of architecture, space and material, are also the two most cooperative and antagonistic forces in architecture. After the war, due to the maturity and mainstreaming of concrete and steel technology, architects have paid more attention on the development of space theory instead of the research and investment in material construction, this has led to the marginalization of material theory and development in design course. However, space and perception theory require material manipulation techniques to advance architecture. Material technology contains many aspects, such as the balance between performance and aesthetics, or maximization of architectural engineering efficiency from Buckminster Fuller's theory. The currently popular digital design and fabrication is also a model for the transition from design theory to material operation technology. Craft technology needs to be translated through architectural engineering to truly become the reality of architecture and meet the practical value of architectural standard. Following the concept mentioned above, students design the system prototype according to the material and the construction methodology serving as the basis for design operation and research, and then gradually goes up to match the overall function, context, and phenomenon. The course knowledge requires the architectural system and detailed practice, and transfer to the design aiming two major focus, Interface and Composition. This training methodology focuses on highlighting the role of the prototype design in order to simplify the operation conditions and students could explore profound mechanism between building systems and architectural theories.
