Abstract
The topic of body is closely related to architecture. Based on the Anthony Vidler’s and others’ study on the relationship between body and architecture, this paper studies the relationship between body and architecture from a historical perspective, including the concept of body in philosophical context, the projection of body in classical architecture, and the metaphor of body in postmodern architecture. The theory of body has had an important influence on the architectural form at the beginning of the development of architecture, and then expanded the understanding of architecture at different stages. Recently, with the environmental issues and sustainable development getting more and more attention, the relationship between body theory and architecture will also face new development potentials and opportunities. Reconsidering architecture from the perspective of body perception and paying attention to the interaction between psychology and environment is an opportunity for the development of body and architecture, which may lead to theoretical and practical guidance of more contemporary significance.
