A study on the geometric expression characteristics in Ieoh Ming Pei's architectural design. : Focusing on buildings completed after 1978
This paper studies the geometric characteristics of Ieoh Ming Pei's architectural design. The purpose is to analyze the geometrical form characteristics of architectural design and derive the results by focusing on architectural cases after 1978, and the significance of this study is to derive geometric expressions and characteristics through this study. The results of this study show that Ieoh Ming Pei's architectural designs differ by period and location, but this study limits them to overseas buildings after 1978. Ieoh Ming Pei implemented geometric architectural design forms centered on the National Art Gallery in 1978, and these works became the opportunity for him to win the AIA GOLDEN MEDAL. This study is a research paper that analyzes and derives the geometrical expression characteristics through Ieoh Ming Pei's architectural design cases. Integration, transformation, and expansion are the characteristics of Ieoh Ming Pei's architectural expression, and these characteristics are derived through the language of geometric forms and appear as the fundamental forms of pure geometric figures. The pure geometrical characteristics and expressive conceptual characteristics of the geometry derived in this way remind us of the architectural design form of O-Ming Pei, which maintains the original form and fundamental form among the many irregular buildings in modern times. It is hoped that this study will serve as a foundation for the study of the form concept of the architectural design prototype, which is the derivation of geometrical morphological concept characteristics.
