从奴隶社会到信息社会的六、七千年间，人类社会生活发生了巨变，但作为人类生存必须的基本要求：衣、食、住、行及情感的满足并没有改变。类型学的观点是建筑功能是变化的，但内在的形式却有恒常性，建筑的外在形式不过是有形形态而已，而建筑同时还是精神载体，是历史的积淀，正如罗西所说建筑“是历史与记忆的统一体”。 From the slave society to the information society in the six or seven thousand years, human social life has undergone tremendous changes, but as a basic requirement for human survival: the satisfaction of clothing, food, housing, behavior, and emotion has not changed. The point of typology is that the architectural function is changing, but the inherent form is constancy, the external form of the building is only a visible form, and the building is also the carrier of the spirit and the accumulation of history, just as Rossi said about the building. It is the unity of history and memory."
