Organic Architecture · Distant View: The One Without a Visible Boundary

A long shot taken from the opposite hillside. Most of the frame is occupied by terrain, grassy slopes, and trees; the building occupies only a small part, half of which is submerged in the ground. The exposed parts are several horizontal stone walls following the contour lines, an undulating grass roof, and a dark opening on the valley side. The curve of the roof follows the same direction as the mountain ridge behind it. Its silhouette is lower than the surrounding tree canopy line. The light is a low-angle oblique light in the evening, casting shadows that highlight the undulations of the terrain and the stratification of the stone walls. Avoid: making the building the main subject of the frame, making the building's silhouette higher than the tree canopy line, making the roof's orientation unrelated to the terrain, using midday overhead light that makes the terrain lose its undulations.

一張從對面山坡拍的遠景。畫面裡大部分是地形、草坡與樹;建築只佔一小部分,而且一半沒入地中,露出的部分是幾道順著等高線的水平石牆、一片起伏的草屋頂、以及向谷那側的一個暗色缺口。屋頂的曲線與後方的山稜是同一個走向。輪廓低於周圍的樹冠線。光線是傍晚的低角度斜光,把地形的起伏與石牆的層理都拉出陰影。避免:讓建築成為畫面的主體、使建築的輪廓高過樹冠線、讓屋頂的走向與地形無關、使用正午的頂光讓地形失去起伏。
