| Since ancient times, humans have continued to explore the relationship between architecture and the natural environment, building to adapt to climate becoming a permanent principle. Traditional dwellings is closely intertwined with the climate, it is not only to adapt to the local climate, but also by making the best use of the climate to create a more convenient and more comfortable place to live for people. This article is in this concept, selecting Yacheng that is at the border town southwest of Hainan Island as the Objects of the study. Yacheng is a historical town which has a long historical and cultural background and unique geographical and climatic environment is. So to select the traditional settlement and houses which are well-preserved in Yacheng for the study, Through the analysis of the status of traditional dwellings and the architectural features, and then analyze the characteristics of climate adaptation.Yacheng ancient city is located in plain that Surrounded by the mountain and one side facing the sea. Climatic characteristics expressed as:Hot summer and warm winter, abundant rainfall, monsoon climate, rain and heat in the same season, and more Typhoon and Heavy rains caused by typhoon. In addition, as the location there are insects and wind erosion problems.Yacheng traditional dwellings as an architectural form relatively mature and stable Not only meet the cultural needs, but also meet the principles of durability, but also improve the micro-climate environment. Face of the climate in Yacheng, Yacheng traditional dwellings requires not only firmly, can prevent the the destruction of typhoon, but also pay attention to ventilation, heat, moisture, anti-insect and anti-corrosion and other problems. Therefore,Yacheng traditional dwellings have taken a series of measures in the settlement location, layout, architectural form, space organization, building construction and building materials etc. Through these measures, effectively played against typhoons, moisture, heat insulation, moth and anti-corrosion, but will also create a favorable micro-climate environment for building, thereby increasing the comfort of living space.Today, the issues of the environmental and energy have become an obstacle to human development. Along with the progress of scientific and technological, the consumption of non-renewable resource and environmental crisis are becoming increasingly difficult. If people want to live in harmony with nature, you need to conserve resources and respect the environment. Yacheng traditional dwellings contains the simple concept of harmony with nature, these concepts and practices as reflected in the characteristics of climate adaptation is worthy of our in-depth research to go on. |
