The Research On Visual Environment Of Transfer And Joint Space In Rail Traffic Pivot

Rail traffic pivot is a traffic complex to serve passenger transfer between different vehicles and different flow direction, in which rail traffic transfer is primary and bus transfer is accessorial. Solving the problem of transfer and joint between different traffic modes is the most prominent and basic function of rail traffic pivot. To put this function into full effect, the inner visual environment design should not be ignored.There is bi-directional affiliation between passenger's transfer behavior and the visual environment of transfer and joint space. On one hand, passengers are dominant in the visual environment. On the other hand, visual environment is information source to restrict people's behavior. Character of people's behavior is foundation of visual environment design. Directed by human orientation, the visual environment design should create humanistic visual environment.The thesis respectively expounds five elements of visual environment of transfer and joint space: body, space, sign, color and light environment. Body's influencing field is a mental sense. Body design must be on the principle of human orientation, regionality, nationality, epoch and technology. Base on the restrict effect of body, using various bodies in traffic pivot designers combine and separate inner space to establish efficient and convenient transfer and joint space. Decorating elements are used to express the content of visual environment and create atmosphere of visual environment. Relations between social attribute and physical attribute of sign should be deal with validly. Using advanced design method and artistic skill, designer should create favorable visual environment, after fulfilling essential directing function of sign. Color has important effect on mental changing of passenger. In color design, selecting whole as starting point designer should validly deal with the relations of whole and part, unification and change, stabilization and balance, and pay attention to color combination and matching to express nationality and regionality. Light is the media of visual environment. Light design not only fulfils its essential function but also creates humanistic light environment basing on mental requirement of passengers in the special space. The above five elements are not isolated. Based on character of people's behavior, they are unified to the idea of human orientation in visual environment design.Referring to six representative rail traffic pivots in the world, the thesis analyses the achievement and deficiency in visual environment design of transfer and joint space. It is worth while to refine overseas designers'ingenious design technique, unfamiliar ideal and high-tech and use them for example. The domestic visual environment design should be enhanced in the present basis.
