Application of Fractal Theory in Architectural Design

Jian Li, Yuanyuan Zhang, Wei Wang

Abstract

Firstly, this paper introduces the research background of fractal theory. Secondly, the article gives the definition of fractal dimension, and introduces the calculation method of fractal dimension through examples. At last, the paper discusses the fractal structure of several kinds of typical buildings. And then it is proved that the fractal geometry has a deep influence on the development of architecture in the aspects of epistemology and methodology.
