建筑色彩

金磊

色彩与宇宙并存,与一切物质同时存在。色彩具有深刻而丰富的象征力、表现力。在人类历史发展进程中,色彩担任了重要的角色。

建筑色彩和建筑形式一样,都是一定历史时期内的文化的产物。这二者是互相依存的,相辅相成的。如果没有建筑形式,建筑色彩就没有依托;如果没有建筑色彩,建筑形式就没有增饰。它们都是遵循建筑美学的原则而构成的建筑美学的基础。当然以受时间和空间的制约——随着时间和空间的变化而发生变化。

在悠久的历史中,建筑形式采用了严格的左右对称的表现技法,像宫殿、寺院等建筑那样,显示出来权力、威力的象征;另一方面建筑色彩则采用了红色、黄色等来充分表现这些,以增加形式的庄严壮丽的气氛。这样,色彩与形式结合在一起,就能够产生出精神上的表现力。

随着时间的推移,建筑形式已不再采用对称均衡的表现技法,而像现代建筑那样反映着现代的思想意识。在这样的客观条件下,建筑色彩则配合新的形式发挥它的表现力,唤起人们的感觉,帮助人们体会这样的形式的美观。这时,色彩根据不同的形式,或者助长,或者控制,起到所谓的色彩调节的作用。

对于一定的建筑形式,建筑色彩是有其相应的表现技法的。一般来说,有秩序的、有节奏的、有变化的表现技法,才能获得美观的效果。杂乱无章地使用色彩决不能获得那样的效果。因此,在建筑物上正确地使用色彩,必须遵守一定的规律和技法。

在一定的环境中,建筑色彩不但能够显示出民族的、社会意识的表现力,而且还能够给我们的生活带来相当大的影响。通过建筑色彩可以观察到一个社会、一个民族的物质文明和精神文明的程度。

建筑物的内部和外部都使用色彩,一般称做内部装修色彩和外部装修色彩。它们在各自的表面上要显示出艺术效果。一般来说,在一个时期、一定的地区内,根据社会意识和物质要求,使用一些自然材料或人工材料,设计和建造出代表当时形式或风格的建筑物,所用色彩富有时代精神,是能够满足人们的生活要求的。然而随着时间和空间的变异,社会意识变革,人们对物质要求的提高以及设计手法、建筑材料和施工工艺的不断进步,建筑色彩就要发生变化。因此,建筑色彩既蕴含着传统性,又是流行的,它总在不断地满足着人们的生活要求。

建筑是多姿多彩的,建筑物用什么颜色,有着明显的时代特点,地方特点。就以北京故宫来说,黄色是主要的代表色,象征着皇权至高无上。北京天安门的红墙,中南海红墙给人的感觉十分庄严。苏州的民居,白墙、黑瓦,在青山绿水的映衬下,独具江南特色。西藏的建筑,色彩对比强烈,红、黄、白是主要色彩。在我们城市中,建筑的色彩也是构成城市景观的重要因素。色彩的运用得当与否,对人们的视觉乃至精神起直接的影响。试想,人们的居住区,或红砖楼,或灰砖楼,或混凝土结构涂上白色涂料的居民楼,色彩简单明快,在绿树绿草、各种颜色的鲜花的陪衬下,在干净平整的柏油路或水泥方砖路上散步,那是多么的惬意。如果居民楼的外立面大红大绿,花里胡哨,怎能给人以愉悦的心境 我们要让城市美起来,色彩有着其他形式(建筑、装饰、雕塑等)不可替代的作用。

【题目】 A clever cat has been called a hero after he prevented his owners’ home from burning down. Five-year-old Pepper has learned to open windows and lets himself out every night by using his paws to turn the latch. So when a fire broke out while his owners were at Christmas shopping, the quick-thinking cat leapt into action and opened the window to allow the poisonous smoke to escape.

Owner Sharon White said, “He can climb back in through the window, so he really does come and go as he pleases. Pepper is still a bit afraid but is still managing to eat plenty of food.” Sharon and her husband Phil were handed Pepper over four years ago after a neighbor could no longer look after it.

The fire started at 4 pm on Saturday after the couple went to the shops and left their microwave on a ten minute timer, which then caught fire. Sharon said, “We put something in the microwave for ten minutes and then went out to do our Christmas shopping in the local town. I discovered on the way that I had left my purse at home but decided not to turn around. It was my relative who lives next door that rang us and told us that we’d better get home as there was quite a lot of smoke coming out of our house and the firefighters were here.”

Firefighters rushed to their 350,000 house and put out the fire before it could spread and the kitchen suffered only smoke damage. Phil added, “Pepper managed to get out and smoke must have been pouring out the window which attracted the attention of the neighbors. He’s got a real mind of his own. Without him, the fire could have been so much worse.”
