碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 建築研究所 === 102 === This paper takes Vicsek fractal as concept model, aims to be inspired by pattern features to gain new design thinking, and apply to projects in 4 different scales. The main concept of Fractal Theory relates to the study of hidden rule and relationship between individuals and groups, through observations by different angles and scales. This paper initiates the study of Fractal pattern thinking, outlines 4 features towards 4 project design perspectives respectively in 4 different scales. Project 01 : Ratios and Proportions >> Modular Combination >> Living Studio for Performers >> U House The first project sets the dimensions of modular with human scale, to define the scale of space horizontally and vertically. With various combinations, this project creates both countable individual spaces and group spaces with diverse functions. Project 02 : Multiple Observations >> Space Program >> Community Center >> Live Stage Public space = overlap of many individual requirements The second project refers to the real life of 38 respondents, both residents and non-residents. As a community center, With their participations, the project has deeper understanding of the space requirements, creates multi-functional public space for the community. Project 03 : Self-Similarity >> Relative Scale >> Campus Extension >> Architecture Fabrication Laboratory In the third project, the concepts relates to the feature of “Self-similarity”. The campus is the condensation of the city. By inputting a path called “the street” into the campus to be the media between campus and city. Project 04 : Scale-unrelated >> Individual as Whole >> Climate Research Center >> Linear City As mentioned in the project 03, the feature of “Self-similarity” implies that individual is the condensation of whole. The main goal of this project is to arouse the social awareness of global climate change, and put it into diversified actions. Therefore, this project intends to transform urban infrastructure by setting up innovative mix-use programs strategically that stimulate citizen engagement and generate publicity and by connecting local people to professionals and academic networks worldwide.
