Design Research of Urban Expressway

日本的城市设计主要关注功能、经济和安全。然而，最近，人们对城市结构和公共空间（如城市高速公路结构）的美学和环境设计重新产生了兴趣。本研究试图阐明基础设施的美学本质。这一目的是通过讨论名古屋市若宫公园路的许多场景的轮廓来实现的。“美学轮廓”一词意味着公共区域内所有结构的协调。这些原则被应用于试图为高速公路结构创造一种新的美学设计。收集了名古屋市的城市高速公路若宫公园路的多方面照片，这是景观和基础设施设计之间的合作工作。名古屋高速公路下的16个公园由许多雕塑和景观设计师设计。照片的许多美学方面：由合作研究者选择。使用配备RGB颜色模式（16，700，000种颜色）的计算机对约200张载玻片进行图形数字数据分析。使用2025 dpi的幻灯片扫描仪将幻灯片转换为RGB数字数据。许多照片通过高质量的数字扫描仪转换为图形彩色数字数据。并将其转化为灰色数据。使用摄影处理工具Adobe Photoshop来定义每个元素的轮廓，从而提高分析的准确性。轮廓分析和建议的设计模拟我们尝试通过上述CG方法来评估具有许多轮廓图的有序和无序线条。强调线条的有序性，消除线条的无序性，提出了新的审美平衡。最终的设计方案是从行人的角度提出的。

Urban design in Japan has focussed primarily on function, economy, and safety. However recently there has been renewed interest in the aesthetic and environmental design of urban structures and public spaces such as urban expressway structures. The present study attempts to clalify the aethetic essense of infrastructures. This aim is accomplished by discussing outlines of the many scenes of Wakamiya Park Road m Nagoya City. The term "aesthetic outlines" implies a harmonization of all structures in a public area These principles were applied in an attempt to create a new aesthetic design for the express way structures.1. Collecting many aspects of photos of an urban expressway Wakamiya Park Road in Nagoya Cit is famous as the collaboration work among landscape and infrastructure design. Sixteen parks under the Nagoya expressway have been designed by many sculptures and landscape designers. Many ethetic aspects of photos:were selected by co-researchers.2. Creating Graphical Degital Data Analysis was performed on approximately 200 slides using a computer equipped with an RGB color mode (16,700,000 colors). The slides were converted into RGB digital data using a slide-scanner at 2025 dpi Many photos were changed into graphical color degital data by the high quality degital scanner. They were also doned into gray data. A photographic processing tool, Adobe Photoshop, was used to define the outline of each element and thereby increase accuracy of the analysis.3. Analysis of outlines and Proposed Design Simulation We attemptted to evaluate ordered and disordered lines with many outline drawings by above CG methods. New aesthetic balance were proposed by emphasizing the ordered outlines and erasing disord ered lines. The final proposed design was presented from the perspective of pedestrians.
