France, Germany, the Netherlands, Finland and Sweden

 Five different countries, customs, and thus in the urban landscape, building forms and other aspects show different characteristics. Although this line is cursory, but has been able to deeply feel the different.

France

French romantic, casual, natural, comfortable life, and the bones of the aesthetic quality of the gusto that really touched me. Protection of the ancient city of Paris is the world's best cities. Modern high-rise building is basically only in the New and away from the inner city lots. Old city the protection of old buildings well, the building floors, building color and style of control was very much in place. Different buildings built in different times though, but almost all of the classic three-stage, the walls are beige marble, the base of the same color or slightly darker, the roof form and full, gray or full Tonglv Se. These buildings are not high, generally in the six or so, plus a loft. Even though some additions, alterations or extension of the project will achieve the unity of the original building. Thus from the point of view of the city, building facades very coordinated and complete. Paris is basically a light beige in the city,UGG boots clearance, walking in the street, you can get a deep understanding of classical taste, each one building can tell a moving history.

seems to me that Parisians in life, just like artists. The pursuit of great feeling, not deliberately, not force, or even lazy, does not matter. However, the artistic heart of hearts, so that they do things out, to see how people are comfortable, which may be born with it. Paris is not a put on a clean city, Paris is not a sophisticated urban stress. Building work that is not particular about that can be said to rough. If the building with a bright color, comfortable feel combined ratio point of view, some of which do not pay attention to a paper is hand-flavor.

Parisians this casual attitude to life, in the car performed very obvious, no expensive cars in France. Also three brands, Peugeot, Citroen, Renault. French people do not treasure the little car. Street cars are basically the wound, where a pack of drum,cheap UGG boots, where the concave piece, and some window glass was gone, according to open worthwhile. Street parking, one to suffer a no gap. The middle of the vehicle to come out, the only way is to look forward arch, arch backward look at the before and after the attack into blaze a new trail. This situation is common in France, passers-by will not pipe, do not pay attention to live like the French aristocracy.

Germany

we went to Germany, France, travel by bus from the past. Beautiful car speeding in the fields of France, the window is not absolutely stretches of grassland and wheat fields, rolling a little flat. Red house nestled among the green trees. One to Germany, the mostly large tracts of forest. Distant red house, the density of many, it seems more German population density. Becomes steep roof up, altogether simple form, with the French see the kind of gentle stretch of the roof, forming a very clear contrast. I asked the tour guide, is not love the rain in Germany than in France. Tour guide said yes. It rains a lot more than France, Germany, France, life is good, good weather, so French people live in moisture, natural day care. Yes ah, different environments, different climate, not the same architectural form.

environment also affected the person's character. The roof is directly a simple metaphor of the French, the Germans very different character. Calm casual French, Germans reason altogether.

us to the only two cities in Bonn and Cologne. Germany during World War II building, basically destroyed in the war, in addition to some of the more important of the church. We see many of the buildings are post-war reconstruction, the building that look antique basically is a fake antiques, and how can one not comfortable, the time given to building additional connotation of accumulation, which is the weight of history. No history of architecture must look pale and weak. In France, you are walking down the street, you can feel the history of architectural integrity of the continuous, but in Germany, you will feel awkward between the building and construction, some boring, some dry. With the classical architecture, German architectural color and no soft elegance of France then, like to use black and white. Physical relationship between the somewhat stiff. Meticulous work, in my opinion did not bring better results, but people feel rigid. Germany is building a distance with people and no one close. If you use a color to represent the German construction, then, I would choose black, rational, and some cold, just like the symbols of the German Red-billed as Black Hawk.

Cologne Cathedral is a World War II survivors. May be because the church is too famous, too precious was spared. Much at first glance, as if the sky is black two large column straight into the sky. Close look, you can see the original meter gray marble material, but years of erosion had smoked it like fireworks, like dark black hair, but this did not affect the momentum of its upright. Cologne Cathedral and Notre Dame can be termed a classic Gothic cathedral. Cologne Cathedral,UGG boots, but a finer beam column closer. From the interior view, ten million coupons straight vertical lines abnormal skinny top, like a lean man full of strength, strong, rational and calm, compared with them, Notre Dame is like a tall woman, even though the mysterious , ghosts, but also plump. This reflects the French people and the Germanic character of the people are just too different. Environment can be created, while others created the character of the building.

Netherlands

Netherlands is reclaimed by artificial fill out the country, its average elevation of all land below sea level. Amsterdam city, canal staggered horizon, is essentially a water city of Venice called the Netherlands. Shore house next to the house, there is no gap, the wall facing the street are the mountains, two streets across the canal, more than a thousand bridges attached to both sides of the street. Amsterdam is not particularly grand buildings, but the composition of the gable elevation, the level of scattered, colorful, different patterns, spectacular. In the canal boat trip is simply to enjoy a beautiful, soft waves in the Yan Lian, the picturesque scenery of the shore to see people coming and going.

said that the Dutch are notoriously stingy, and I think it is because the country is too small, every inch of land were reclaimed by their own relevant. Received too difficult, and thus will especially cherish their own, and even material wealth of the. So there go Dutch saying, meaning AA, pay to eat separately from pay.

particularly fond of red brick and some Dutch coarse texture of the material. Regardless of the old buildings, new construction, the facade of this material will be used bricks. Why a soft spot for the brick so coarse it? Evidence for this is simple people of the country, frank side? If so, it is not surprising that the emergence of Van Gogh. In fact, the Dutch very smart, it will be business, and great emphasis on business ethics.

Finland

us from Amsterdam International Airport to Helsinki, Finland. Amsterdam's bustling airport,Bailey UGG boots, to the Helsinki International Airport but was not deserted. This strong contrast is somewhat difficult to accept. Helsinki

My first impression is really good. We are the night to eight or nine. On the street wants to come, with some chill in the air, I felt a cold desolate vague, this is the summer ah. Later, I learned that year only two seasons here, summer and winter, the summer months only 5,6,7,8. Finn's character is also like two seasons, as the two sides of a contradiction. Behaved during the day and night to drink wine, it will become another person. Long winter, on the one hand easier to suppress the people here, become contradictory, so alcohol is particularly high. It is said that the State has also sent money to those particular alcoholic drink for them, the only requirement is to not make trouble. On the one hand, and let the people here love the sun, love nature, the sun as long as the good days, they will be out in force, go outside to enjoy nature.

Helsinki is more like city people. Last night also think it is like the northern city of desolation, the day you will find the magical and naturally like him. Indeed, really beautiful city of Helsinki, and some beautiful. Finland also known as the Thousand Lakes Park, Thousand Islands of the country. Lakes, the Baltic Sea, decorate it like a pearl. Combination of new and old buildings, but the scale, color and pleasant, walking in the street, the right kind of abnormal size. Sort of a small, graceful, like a demure beauty, lady.

Alvar Aalto in this country like a hero known to everybody. Because of his architectural work and product design for the small country of Finland won the Nordic greater reputation, but also attracted many architects and artists to this country to visit. Alto works known to human kind. Alto, rooted in his work is truly born in the land. This country of three trees, birch, pine, fir. Trees are straight to each into the sky, into a piece of forest. Is not that Alto building vertical lines arranged in the aesthetic source of it? The winding coast, shore line is not an exact reproduction of Alto curve it? Close to the character and nature is the Alto is not the philosophical basis for cordial and pleasant work it? Some people say that understanding a designer's work may wish to look at his biography, and I think that the environment had to go in his life, we can better interpret his work.

Sweden

morning, the luxury cruise slowly into the harbor, in front of us is a brilliant city - Stockholm. Bay City Building carried around the building, water, forests embraced in the morning light.

classical architecture are also mostly the same as the complete renewal of Paris, but the rich colors and a number of buildings, seems more full of body mass on the power some, especially the roof is very full. Building like a scholar in Paris, there is elegance. Swedish construction material is not noble, but to say strong, honest, really like a simple man. This is a strong nation, once vibrant and dominate the square. The protection of ancient buildings from the city intact, the grand palace changing of the guard ceremony every day, and the construction of the museum from the Vasa wreck can be seen in this country the respect of their own history, to have pride of prosperity, but also was not good at the face of glorious history. This is a self-examination, to be true to their own nation. In Stockholm University, I see those buildings basically follow the structure of the building, showing the structure of the United States, and the use of texture characteristics of the material itself, openly, without modification. You will be impressed that the real attitude. Nordic often mentioned before, has not grasp its essence, and now want the The same is true of construction in Finland, not applied Prostitute, and Sweden, compared to only a few gentle and refined, a number of wild uninhibited. I think this is a different character of the two Nordic countries.

trip to Europe this time, led to their construction in different countries, culture, environments in China. Environment shaped people's character, who shaped the character of the building. Different countries and thus showing a different architectural style. If the borrower to compare the human architectural features of these different countries, then, that is -

France - casual elegance of the literati

Germany - crack rational middle-aged

Netherlands - simple but shrewd businessman

Finland - a charming lady

Sweden - simple is elegant man
