Abstract: Multi-sensory landscape experienceis attracting increasing interest. A campus environment is peaceful for teachers and students, and the landscape system should fulfil multi-dimensional experiential needs. Existing studies on multiple landscapes on campus have been reported regarding soundscape and smellscape.The role and understanding of lightscape in campus environments still need to be improved. Under the academic framework of "lightscape", field perceptions of outdoor lightscape in the Wushan Campus at South China University of Technology (SCUT) were investigated, based on the lightwalk method. At nightfall (16:00-17:30) and nighttime (19:00-20:30) of working days in autumn, 24 and 27 students from the School of Architecture were chosen as respondents. The SD method evaluated lightscape perception on campus from aspects of emotional perception, optical characteristics, the spatial environment and social tendency. The degree of impressions of the lightscape on campus, positive and negative environmental influences on experiences and the influential degree of environmental factors were assessed. Using Excel and SPSS2 6.0, data analysis deduced the typical lightscape types and lightscape types that trigger positive or negative emotions andthe elements correlated with lightscape perception were discussed.
  The data demonstrated that the overall lightscape evaluation of campus in SCUT is relatively positive, and that during daytime is generally superior to that at night. Core adjectives to describe lightscape during daytime are vigorous, pleasant, and warm light. The core adjectives that describe the lightscape at night include comfort, satisfaction, and warm light. Concerning typical lightscape types, the natural indirect type takes the dominant role during the daytime, followed by daylight, sunset and shadows of plants. An artificial light source is amajor lightscape duringthe night, followed by street lamps, moonlight and decorative lights from ordinary buildings. Lightscape that triggers positive emotions are mainly natural types, including daylight, shadows of plants and inverted reflection in water during daytime,moonlight, street lamps and sky glow during the night. For lightscape that triggers negative emotions, reflective lights, daylight and shadows of moving vehicles dominate during the daytime. In contrast, car lights and advertising boards are the maintypes during the night. For elements correlated with lightscape perception, preference fortypical lightscape is related tolightscape perception, such as daylight, architectural profile skyline and plant profile skyline during the daytime, street lamps, decorative lights of landmark buildings and moonlight during the night.
  Environmental objective brightness during daytime and night is related to lightscape perception. Other sensory environmental factors (such as temperature and humidity environment, acoustic environment and odour quality) and spatial composition factors (for example, spatial scale and division mode, landscape configuration and service facility arrangement) are related tolightscape perception. Regarding gender factors, males perceive fewer lightscape types during daytime compared to females, but they have a higher evaluation of emotional perception than females. The frequency of visits is also related tolightscape perception. As an experience of objects of territory and cultural significance, lightscape is conducive to improving the overall experiential significance to the environment if it is rich incharacteristic and positive sensory memory. Research investigating the "lightscape" starts with human body perception needs and provides multiple perspectives for interpreting the light environment on campus. Research results provide some practice references to creating positive lightscape in campus planning, using entirely positive lightscape, and avoiding poor lightscape. Although lightscape experience is a complicated psychological and cognitive process,the observations reported aboveare statistically significant. The overall universality of such data for different regions and culturally different places still needs to be analyzed and verified. Besides, the more specific correlation between lightscape perception and factors such as lightscape perception mechanisms and modelson campus requires further thorough discussions.

摘要: 从光景学视角解读校园光环境并探索光景感知,为校园多元景观营造提供参照。以光景漫步法对华工五山校区进行光景感知研究,总结校园光景的感知特征,归纳典型光景类型及引发正、负向情绪的光景类型,与光景感知相关的若干要素也得到探讨。结果表明:华工校园户外光景评价总体较好,日间评价普遍优于夜间;日间典型光景多为自然间接类,夜间多为人工光源类;引发情绪正向的类型多为自然类光景,负向类型则主要包括反光、广告牌等;典型光景喜爱度、客观亮度、其他环境因素和社会行为学因素与光景感知存在相关。注重具有地域和文化内涵光景的营造,可提升校园景观的综合感官体验。
