Visual Integration Relationship between Buildings and the Natural Environment Based on Eye Movement

In current architectural practice projects, the external visual image presented by many buildings ignores the interpretation of the environment and the local context, as well as the emotional feeling of people in visual cognition. At present, some indicators in the field of architectural design can be analyzed quantitatively, but the evaluation criteria related to vision remain in the stage of relying on experience and feeling so that the design result cannot be controlled accurately. This article reports the study of the influence of building distribution form and the ratio of the shorter side to longer side of building blocks (the S/L ratio) on the visual integration relationship between buildings and the natural environment, based on eye-tracker experiments. Six actual completed projects were chosen for evaluation in two experiments. This study uses eye-tracking recorded data to investigate the influence of two elements (the distribution of building blocks and the S/L ratio of building blocks) on the visual integration relationship of buildings and environment. It provides a theoretical approach that helps to improve architects’ building-design practices when working in different natural environments.
