Research On Psychological Behavior In Exhibition Building Intermediary Space Environment And The Design Strategies

Exhibition buildings are places for cultural shows, and their intermediary spaces are important parts for guiding people to entering cultural exhibition spaces from urban surroundings, which entail research significance. By methods of observing the behavior of visitors, questionnaire survey, and other research methods, the thesis has aimed to analyze the visitors’ behavior characteristics and psychological feeling of space in the exhibition building intermediary space, and to further explore the relevant design strategies for exhibition building intermediary spaces.The thesis is divided into four parts:The first part defines the exhibition building and some relevant concepts of intermediary space, and then classifies the exhibition building space agency and describes the elements of the exhibition building intermediary space, functional properties and spatial qualities. The second part is on case-research, namely, conducting case-study on Shanghai Long Art Museum, Shanghai Himalayan Cultural Arts Center, Zhejiang Art Museum, and Suzhou Museum using method of behavioral observation. By quantitative statistics, distribution of species in space and the space flow streamline are recorded. And by comparing of the four cases, the thesis aims to explore the correlation between the spatial characteristics and behavior. The third part falls into two sections.
