Zusammenfassung: | “Gray space”, also known as transitional space, focuses on the connection and transition between indoor and outdoor spaces in architecture. With its unique diversity of forms and functional inclusiveness, gray space reasonably integrates architectural spaces’ hierarchical construction with innovative ecological energy-saving concepts. Existing research mainly analyzes and interprets the design techniques of gray space from a visual perception perspective but needs more analysis of classification and design interpretation of the gray spaces in traditional gardens based on climate adaptability. This paper studied the gray spaces in traditional Jiangnan gardens, summarizing five common types of gray space in architectural spaces and their responses to the climate. Subsequently, we selected a typical representative for each of the five types of spaces and used “height-to-depth ratio (HDR), open space ratio (OSR), and direction (DIR)” as variables to conduct wind environment simulations. The simulation results help to determine the optimal climate adaptability scheme for each type of space. Through this research on the gray spaces of traditional gardens, we aimed to contribute to the conservation and utilization of classical gardens from an ecological energy-saving perspective and also provide ideas for passive energy-saving design in small public spaces and garden landscape spaces. |
