Abstract  

There are 28 kinds of honeycombs composed of regular polyhedrons, convex prisms and Archimedean solids. Novel planar tessellations can be found by using section-method based on these honeycombs. The honeycomb made up of octahedron and rectified cube was taken as an example and applications of section-method in the architectural surface design were discussed. Main contents included relevant geometry principles, controlling of sections‘ periodicity, balance of complexity and modulization, method of module selection. Results show that section-method based on convex uniform honeycombs can achieve systematic and diversified planar patterns, and be beneficial to express complexity with a few modules.

基于规则多面体镶嵌剖切法的建筑表皮设计

由正多面体、正棱柱、阿基米德多面体等规则多面体相互组合形成的空间镶嵌模式共28种,以这些镶嵌模式为基础,运用剖切法可以得到新的平面镶嵌图形. 以正八面体和立方八面体的组合镶嵌模式为例,探讨该方法在建筑表皮设计中的应用,主要包括相关几何原理、截面周期性的控制、复杂性与模件化的平衡以及取模件的思路等. 研究表明,对规则多面体组合进行剖切能够获得系统性和多样化的图形模式,利于以少数的模件进行复杂性设计.
