碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 建築(工程)學系 === 86 === The Study of Urban Skyline Images--Take Skyline in Taipei City as an ExampleResearcher: Lin, Ya-PingAbstract Urban skyline is the result after cumulating a series of human life. Knowing city''s development track and phenomena of social culture through observing and reading via skyline, on the other hand, being capable of distinguishing directions via the guidance of skyline. Nonetheless most previous archives concerning urban skyline images emphasize on describing image in a sensitive way after observing, but neglect that observing through skyline is via the reception of vision image, which must be in the basic observing process and vision environment, but not be observed in any places and from any angles. Hence, observing through urban skyline is not known at random, but be constructed by vision environment state between observer and skyline vision. The research takes skyline in Taipei city as an example mainly because of the unique integration of geographical shapes and condition in Taipei city, whose tall buildings are gathered in east and west district because of twin nucleus project. From the viewpoint of natural environment and artificial creature, Taipei city has great potential of being observed through urban skyline, therefore, urban skyline image is the main topic of the context, and process the analysis in observing skyline image in Taipei city. The main points of the research are attributed into three points:1. Construct the foundation of urban skyline image through the theory. Construct the foundation of the behaviorism of urban skyline image via the theory of urban vision and the theory of exterior space in architecture presented by Yoshinobu Ashihara. Understand the reason of observing through skyline? Then discuss the background and meaning of the development of skyline through the analysis of Kevin Lynch''s urban ideology and environmental psychology, and gain the clear pattern of city image of urban skyline.2. Construct method of observing urban skyline, and attempt to take Taipei City as a discussion pattern. Process actual observation on skyline in Taipei city, understand problems and restraints aroused in the process of skyline image, and acquire the understanding of versified vision changes and differences occurred in different vision environment states adopting the same skyline sight for observation.3. Construct basic process, vision environment and methods of analysis through the observation of skyline image. Urban skyline image has certain process and principle. After process the actual observation of vision of skyline image, process to decipher skyline image in Taipei city, which can be divided into two parts: 1. Analysis and induction of vision environment factor while observing, and obtain ideal environment for observing; 2. Abstract analysis of the format of skyline image, and then obtain city''s basic structure and variety of skyline. Key Words: Urban Skyline, Image, Vision Environment, City Vision
