| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺北大學 === 都市計劃研究所 === 98 === Taiwan has colonial influerices since eighteenth century . It had been predominated by many different personality countries such as Spain, China Qing dynasty and Japan. These countries brought cultural hybridity to Taiwan. For example, Taipei had been predominated from the early Ming Zheng, Qing dynasty, the Japanese colonial period, the reform of post-war U.S. aid until modern times. Therefore many of Taipei's urban spaces have different textures. However, modern urban planning emphasizes functionality in order to facilitate traffic convenience. The structure between cities are more similar, and some traditional elements were disregarded. The aim of this study is to find the city images of Taipei.
This study will first focus on "Taipei urban fabric". As noted earlier, Taipei City's urban fabric is an integration through time and space. It is a collective memories of all citizens, and can fully show images of local cities. Therefore, this study will focus on the comparison between the old city and new urban fabric. The two cases in research for urban fabric are Shihlin market and Xinyi business district. Finally, the research apply on three dimensions: space, time and urban image to discuss the existence of different types of urban fabric in Taipei. The conclusions are:
(A) Old urban fabric has higher density in buildings and lack of large-scale public open space.
(B) Old urban fabric pays more attention on the spatial relationship between buildings and people, so that local culture is stronger.
(C) Old urban fabric is less strongly in urban images.
