古奇建筑

古奇建筑（英语：Googie architecture）是一种现代建筑的形式，属于未来主义建筑的一种，受到汽车文化、喷射机、太空时代和核子时代的影响^[1]。

历史

古奇建筑在1940年代晚期起源于美国南加州，并延续至1960年代中期，在汽车旅馆、咖啡店和加油站建筑中十分流行。古奇风格随后成为世纪中期现代主义的一部份，其中的设计要素反映了当时在美国流行的“populuxe”美学^[2]^[3]，埃罗·沙里宁的TWA飞行中心即为一例。

古奇的英文（Googie）原名来自一间现已歇业的西好莱坞咖啡店^[4]，由约翰·洛特纳（John Lautner）设计^[5]。古奇建筑的近似风格有时又称作“Doo Wop”^[6]。

特征

古奇建筑风格的特征包括向上倾斜的屋顶、曲线的几何形状，以及大胆采用玻璃、钢铁和霓虹灯。太空时代中象征动作的设计元素也出现在古奇建筑中，包括回力镖、飞碟、原子和抛物线，以及其他自由形态的要素，例如“柔和”的平行四边形等。这些设计风格要素反映了美国社会对太空时代的著迷，以及市场上对未来主义设计的重视与强调。

与1930年代的装饰风艺术相同，古奇风格随著时间的经过逐渐变得不受重视，许多此一风格的建筑也被拆除。而其中保存下来的包括一间最古老的麦当劳餐厅（英语：Oldest McDonald's restaurant）（位于加州唐尼市），已在1983年被列入美国国家史迹名录。
