Waves: Undulating in One Direction

An array of components presenting a wave-like form. A whole row of horizontal wooden ribs on the ceiling, each varying in height according to a smooth sinusoidal pattern, thus forming continuous crests and troughs; the direction of the wave is parallel to the main circulation path in the store, so the height above one's head slowly undulates as people walk through. The wavelength is very long, and the amplitude of the undulation is about fifty centimeters. Avoid: making the wave's undulation too drastic and oppressive, using irregular random undulations, making the wave's direction perpendicular to the circulation path, making the wavelength too short, turning it into a sawtooth pattern.

一片呈現波浪形態的構件陣列。天花上一整排橫向的木肋,每一片的高度依照一個平滑的正弦規律變化,因此整體形成連續的波峰與波谷;波的方向與店內主動線平行,人走過時頭頂的高度緩慢起伏。波長很長,起伏的幅度約五十公分。避免:讓波的起伏過於劇烈變得壓迫、使用不規則的隨機起伏、讓波的方向與動線垂直、把波長做得太短變成鋸齒。
