Wind Turbine Tower Exterior Design

解构天空的色彩

Location: Beijing, China

Scope: Facade

Status: 2021

塔筒外饰面的设计启发我们追溯风电与自然的关系——"取自自然,还于自然"。颜料也有这样的特点,不同颜色的物质被分离制作成涂料,可以用来模仿自然。

我们捕捉现场不同时段天空的颜色,并将它们有理化为HSL参数,按照明度关系递减排序后,按从南到北、从上到下的顺序排列。晴天时塔筒和天空融为一体,阴天时下半段消隐,扇叶仿佛飞向天空。马赛克图形呈现一种不确定性,这种"模糊"的印象恰好模拟和表现了天空动态变换的特质。

The design of the tower's facade is inspired by the relationship between wind power and nature—"taken from nature, returned to nature." Paints follow a similar process: substances of different color are purified and processed into coatings, imitating the natural world.

We observe the varying colors of the sky at different times of the day and convert them into HSL parameters. These are then sorted by decreasing lightness and arranged in a sequence from south to north and top to bottom. On clear days, the tower seamlessly blends with the sky, while on overcast days, the lower section of the tower fades, as if the blades are soaring into the sky. The mosaic pattern introduces a sense of uncertainty, and this "blurred" effect perfectly reveals the dynamic, ever-changing nature of the sky.
