Study of Natural Light Visual Guidance and Ambiance Creation in Suzhou Gardens
This paper explores the aesthetic and functional significance of natural light in landscape architecture, aiming to remedy the prevalent monotony and lack of natural light-shadow harmony in modern garden design. Emphasizing natural light as a unique element, the study provides a comprehensive overview and quantitative analysis of its properties, particularly its role in Visual Guidance and Ambiance Creation. In terms of visual guidance, the study delves into how natural light influences visual focal points, defines spatial scale, and enhances spatial hierarchy within garden settings. It also examines how texture and temporal changes associated with natural light contribute to creating atmospheric qualities at both micro and macro levels, influencing the overall ambiance. The study uses qualitative and quantitative methods, focusing on traditional Chinese gardens, especially Suzhou Garden, to investigate the impact of natural light on visual guidance and ambiance creation. Through on-site surveys, light intensity and color temperature measurements, and questionnaire analysis, the paper quantifies lighting conditions for effective visual guidance and ambiance creation in garden architecture. By synthesizing these findings, the study proposes universal methods for integrating natural light to guide vision and enhance ambiance in garden architecture, offering valuable insights for contemporary landscape architecture design.
