How do the architecture balanced the colors? Yellow is the symbol of the royal family. Yellow became an imperial color during the Tang dynasty,

3、 when only members of the royal family were allowed to wear it and use it in their architecture.Dragon and Yellow Since yellow is the symbol of the royal family, it is the dominant color in the Forbidden City. Roofs are built with yellow glazed tiles; decorations in the palace are painted yellow; ev

4、en the bricks on the ground are made yellow by a special process. 易经说：“天玄而地黄”。在古代阴阳五行学说中，五色配五行和五方位。土居中，故黄色为中央正色。易经又说：“君子黄中通理，正位居体，美在其中，而畅于四支，发于事业，美之至也。”所以黄色自古以来就当作居中的正统颜色，为中和之色，居于诸色之上，被认为是最美的颜色。 黄色袍服是皇帝的专用服装，皇帝行进的道路在诸条并行道路的中央，称为御道，也称黄道。黄色同皇帝联系在一起了。 根据封建社会的礼制，宫殿建筑的屋顶上铺设黄色琉璃瓦;以金碧辉煌的耀目色彩，形成气势恢宏而肃穆庄严的特色

5、。经皇帝恩准勅建的坛庙或祠堂建筑的屋顶上，也可以铺设黄色琉璃瓦。其它建筑，及至官衙、王府等，均不得在其建筑屋顶上铺设黄色琉璃瓦。因此可以说，黄色是皇帝或皇家的专用颜色，为统治者独占。Red has always been symbolic of happiness.Being bright colors, they give a sense of warmth and passion. 红色也是主色之一，人类认识红色很早，燧人氏发明钻木取火，人们开始知道熟食，这是一个了不起的进化。火呈红色，自然界太阳也是红色。考古学家在山顶洞人生活的山洞里发现有用红色染的贝壳和兽牙，判断为人类最早的装饰物。这

6、说明人类不但认识了红色，而且还把它当作是表现美好的色彩了。 红色，联系着人类的生活，它给人以希望和满足，因而使人产生了一种美感，所以民间才会将红也当作是喜庆的颜色；明朝规定，凡专送皇帝的奏章必须为红色，称为红本；清朝也有相似的制度，凡经皇帝批定的本章统由内阁用朱书批发，也称为红本。由此看来，紫禁城根据封建社会的礼制把黄色与红色作为建筑的主要色彩就是必然的了。 All of the individual buildings in the Forbidden City have roofs covered with golden glazed tiles and vermilion walls.

7、The red color of the numerous pillars supporting the buildings also has a strong visual impact.On a clear day, the panorama presented by glistening golden tiles on the top of red buildings under a blue sky resembles a dreamland among the green trees surrounding the Forbidden City. Besides yellow and

8、 red, other colors are used to produce a balanced effect. For example, the beams under the eaves are usually painted with pictures in cool colors, such as blue and white.Red pillars, doors and windows usually stand on a white stone floor.The red and gold buildings, against the huge white marble terr

9、aces on which they stand,form a striking contrast in color. 在色彩学中，对比是指冷暖对比和补色对比，在绘画中通常把红色和黄色称为暖色调，蓝色和绿色称为冷色调。在紫禁城建筑上就是广泛地应用了这种对比的规律。在蓝天下用一色的黄琉璃瓦顶，用青绿色的彩画和大红的宫墙、柱子与门窗，用白色的石基座和深色的地面，形成了蓝与黄、绿与红、白与灰黑之间的强烈对比，造成了宫殿建筑极其鲜明和富丽堂皇的总体色彩效果。 However, there is one exception. Wenyuan, the royal library, has a black

10、 roof. The reason is that it was believed black represented water then and could extinguish fire. 文华殿后面的文渊阁是贮藏四库全书和供皇帝读书的地方，在这里，一反宫殿建筑的常态，屋顶上特别用了黑琉璃瓦和绿琉璃剪边，门窗和柱子也用的是绿色，它与四周的堆石、绿树组成了一个冷色调的，极为幽静的读书环境，文渊阁好似一颗黑色珍珠镶嵌在一块黄色的壁毯上，在紫禁城建筑群中显得很突出。 Ancient craftsmen who built the Forbidden City, applied the func
