Misplaced Scale: Big Becomes Small, Small Becomes Big

A postmodern space where scale is deliberately messed up. An architectural element that should be very large is shrunk to furniture size: a miniature temple pediment becomes the top of a bookshelf; and something originally very small is enlarged: a giant cone stands in the center of the room as a partition. Because the scale is wrong, people cannot distinguish whether it is architecture or furniture. Avoid: making all elements' scales reasonable, using normal-proportioned architectural components, making furniture sizes conform to ergonomic conventions, making the degree of misplacement too small to be noticeable.

一個尺度被刻意弄錯的後現代空間。一個原本應該很大的建築元素被縮小成家具的尺寸:一座迷你的神殿山牆變成書架的頂;而一個原本很小的東西被放大:一個巨大的圓錐立在房間中央當作隔屏。因為尺度不對,人分不出這是建築還是家具。避免:讓所有元素的尺度都合理、使用正常比例的建築構件、讓家具的尺寸符合人體工學的常規、把錯置的幅度做得太小看不出來。
