摘要

“Out of the Box”為一英語中常用的副詞片語，隱含有「跳出框架…」、或「跳出封閉的盒子…」之涵意，通常用於比喻擺脫制式方法、富原創性或突破性之行為、動作或思考。在此語境當中，「盒子」並不一定真實存在，但當這個片語用來指涉建築領域，尤其是現代主義建築(Modern Architecture /Architecture of Modernism)以及其身後的建築領域之發展時，其中的這個「盒子」(Box)，又使其成為帶有多重符旨與解讀詮釋方式的雙關詞彙…在本論文書寫的21世紀今日，重新回到「方盒子們」，探討如何「越其之外」(“out of the box”)的歷程，或許是今日重啟討論建築空間與形式理論回歸的可嘗試路徑與切入角度。

本研究主要分劃為幾個構面及角度做為討論的架構：首先，從近代建築空間中視覺視角與觀點的解放開始，傳統的透視消點式的建築空間觀被捨棄後，開啟了現代建築後來一連串的空間革命與經驗發展；其次是工業革命發生以來，工廠化集中大量生產方式與文化的積累，為建築的空間與形式操作帶來了系統化、標準化與程序化的面貌，然而這些特質，其實提供了後續空間研究與操作上，結構性的理論搭建平台與契機；最後，在全球化與網絡社會的時空環境之下，加之相關數位科技的刺激與速度加持，建築領域也已脫離敘事論述的面貌，而轉為多向網絡聯結的發展，而且所呈現的是開放與動態的面貌。建築理論與敘事朝向多元分歧而碎化，在這「關鍵字」的年代，建築空間的形式發展呈現開放而發散，流動而扁平，小巧而靈活，這是眼前我們所面對的建築型態。

回望十九至二十世紀交接的那段同樣敘事多元紛呈的時空與年代，面對當代建築所充斥的錯置與擾動，眼下充滿了曖昧模糊的既視感(Déjà vu)。空間與形式終究是建築設計操作的核心，是所有的設計創作者無法迴避的層面，在此，就從啟蒙以來那原初的「盒子」出發，越盒之外，分散進擊，一一拆解…。

“Out of the box” is a common adverb typically used to describe nonconforming, original, creative behaviors, actions, or thinking. In this context, the “box” does not necessarily exist. However, when used in the architectural domain, specifically modern architecture (or architecture of modernism) and the underlying development of the architectural domain, the “box” is used as a pun, a form of word play that suggests two or more meanings. In the current context, the 21st century, when this study was conducted, returning to the “box” and exploring how one should think “out of the box” are perhaps a potential path and point of view from which to discuss and regress architectural space and form theories.
The discussion provided in this study was based on several dimensions and perspectives. First, after the traditional vanishing-point architectural perspective was discarded following the relaxation of visual perspectives regardinglate modern architectural space, it initiated a cascade of spatial revolution and experiential development since the emergence of modern architecture. Second, since the industrial revolution, factories have concentrated on mass production and cultural accumulation, which contributed to the development of systematic, standard, and procedural operations for creating architectural space and forms. However, these characteristics in fact provided a platform and opportunity for subsequent spatial research and operations to integrate structural theories. Finally, in a globalized, social-networking environment that is stimulated by digital technologies, architectural domain has deviated from focusing on only narrative discourse and shifted toward a multidimensional network connection, presenting open and dynamic features. As a result, architectural theories and narrations have advanced toward diversification and fragmentation. In the current era where “keywords” are essential, architectural spaces have developed toward featuring open and diverging forms, smooth and flat forms, or compact and flexible forms—all of which are the architectural patterns presented before our eyes.
A review of the crossover period between the 19th and 20th Centuries showed that architectural narrations were just as diverse as those of the present era and the modern architecture was plagued by mismatching and perturbing forms. By contrast, architectural spaces in the current era are filled with architectural déjà vu. Space and forms are ultimately the core elements governed by architectural designs and dimensions designers and artists must confront. In light of this phenomenon, we must return to the primitive “box,” the origin of inspirations, and from thereon, walk “out of the box,” spread out, and disassemble one by one…
