室内设计外文翻译--住宅布局概论(编辑修改稿)内容摘要：

rent types of space are sometimes referred to as interfaces(figure ).for example,the front wall between a front garden and a public space of the street can be referred to as the interface between semiprivate and public space,just as the front wall of thehouse can be described as the interface between the private interior of the home and the semiprivate front interfaces are important as they can be designed in a particular way to achieve a particular urban design schemes that have semiprivate front gardens but no wall at the interface with the public street space may,for example,result in quite a different street character to a situation where high front walls or even hedges have been introduced. FRONTS AND BACKS A mon concept in residential urban design is that homes have both a front and a back interface。 that the public front of the homes should face the street and the private backs of the homes should face the private spaces(figure ),why this is so can be argued from the perspectives of either achieving outdoor privacy and security around the back,or creating a focus for public life within the public life within the public realm around the front. AROUND THE BACK:ACHIEVING OUTDOOR PRIVACY AND SECURITY The idea that homes should have a back space stems from the observation that privacy is a very important feature of the domestic realm,and that people can enjoy privacy both inside and outside the private garden is a direct result of this,although the balcony or the semiprivate shared gardens are good surrogates(figure ).if private gardens are to be built into a scheme then it makes sense to group them is so that the privacy between the homes is shared,and the gardens are secure. AROUND THE FRONT A FOCUS FOR PUBLIC LIFE WITHIN THE PUBLIC REALM The public realm of a residential area refers to the space that forms between the buildings which,although containing semipublic or seniprivate spaces,will tend to be dominated by the ings and goings of the public street work (figure ).despite the subtle variations in experience and expectation that such semipublic or semiprivate spaces might allow,there is an expectation that public life will certain quieter parts of a residential area this may be dominated by the chance meeting of neighbours,children playing or pedestrians and vehicles passing other areas the public environment will be busier,possibly with a few shops or cimmunity uses supplementing the busier ings and goings of this variation in the intensity of activity,the qualities of this public environment need to be carefully looked after if it is to feel safe and be of the way this sense of safety and convenience can be achieved is by ensureing that the front doors and windows of homes overlook the allows public activity to focus onto the public realm,as people e and go from their homes through front doors that face the streets,whilst the windows allow overlooking or surveillance of the public realm. PROVIDE SURVEILLANCE Surveillance refers to the opportunity to observe activity within a opportunity to observe some degree of human activity within the public spaces of a residential area is regarded as a positive feature in most residential settings(figure ).a particular benefit is the sense of secrity that es from feeling that you are not alone in your neighbourhood. Direct contact between people in a street going about their daily business is a form of surveillance,but the opportunity for people to see into the street from neighbouring homes also creates a sense of security,whilst those people in the street also informally observe that all is well within the homes. DO NOT CREATE DEAD SPACE Sometimes the principle of public realm and private backs facing each other is not followed,and where private gardens abut the public realm dead space may be the result(figure ).this is because the demand for privacy and security around the back of homes inevitably means that some sort of barrier,such as high fences,may be introduced. For the public realm ,the consequence of this is severe ,as the activity associated with the front doors and the surveillance of the street environment through windows are both addition,no back fence could be as interesting as the facade of a approach,therefore,results in less human activity,a poorer sense of security and safety,and an environment that dull and unteresting. The consequence of this for the private gardens is equally gardens now abut trafficked streets which are noisier,whilst it is thought to be relatively easy for a thief to hop over a back of a house from the public realm which is less populated and has poor surveillance. LESS DEMAND FOR PRIVACY Not all residential area achieve the same level of outdoor in particular may rely on balconies above ground level to privide outdoor space,whilst in other residential scheme (including either houses or apartments)private gardens or shared munal(semiprivate)courtyards can tend to be quite all of these cases the promising of privacy allows some surveillance of neighbouring spaces,whilst the visible gardens and balconies provide visual interest to residents and visitors(figure ) RESIDENTIAL BLOCK STRUCTURES Residential block structures result from the way designers pose the buildings and urban spaces to create urban creating residential blocks the designers are defining the location of,and relationships between,the types of urban space and the pattern of access that。
