【 摘 要 】

Under the background of contemporary global design and all-sided sustainable development, traditional architectural design methods and the autonomy of architecture are being challenged. Energy and thermodynamics now provides a more complete perspective on the future based on archeology and science. Before attempting to find a city paradigm for Singapore, a tropical island nation facing an energy crisis, this article, from the perspective of natural learning, examines the ecosystem of tropical rainforests, conducting the prototype analysis with four aspects, climate and microclimate, vertical structure, energy flow and ecological community. Correspondingly, four important strategies that run throughout the thermodynamic urban paradigm design are summarized: climate adaptation, self-organization, community system and regeneration succession. Afterwards to plus the further design from four different levels: region, city, architecture and experience, this article is to explore new thermodynamic urban paradigm.
