  • Seasonal Adaptation, Aesthetic, Periodic Change, Fluctuating Form, Formal Constraints
    Architecture Research 2017, 7(4): 146-158 DOI: 10.5923/j.arch.20170704.03 On the Aesthetics of Seasonally Adaptive Buildings – A Morphological Approach towards Climate Responsive Architecture Agnes Nyilas*, Yoshihito Kurazumi Department of Human Environmental Design, Sugiyama Jogakuen University, Nagoya, Japan Abstract The aesthetics of seasonally adaptive buildings is discussed in this paper, based on the recognition that there is a contemporary trend to reconsider the relation between climate and architectural form. In regions with hot-humid summer and cold-dry winter, however, the seasonal climate differences require different considerations for the same building depending on season. By such reason, the concept of seasonal adaptation is at the focus of interest in climate responsive architectural design. Several examples of seasonally adaptive buildings are analysed here to make clear the relation between their concepts and the architectural forms. Through the paper, author assumes that the general concept of seasonal adaptation might not require any concrete form, but it has the abstract image of form as periodically changing entity, forecasting a new aesthetics of periodical change. On the other hand, conclusion suggests that the reconsideration of the climate factor would certainly put constraints on the architectural form in a positive sense: promoting architects to reconsider energy efficiency, indoor comfort and health issues in relation to form.
