(单词翻译:单击)
Jengatecture refers to building designs that consist of a series of stacked,
offset1 boxes. "Jengatecture" is a blend of "Jenga" and "architecture".
Jengatecture(叠叠乐式建筑)指含有一系列错落堆叠的方块的建筑设计。Jengatecture是Jenga(叠叠乐)和architecture(建筑风格)的混合词。
Jenga is a game where players begin with a tower of 54 stacked blocks and take turns removing a single block and placing it on top of the tower. The game ends when the increasingly taller and less stable tower
collapses2. The Jenga tower's mid-game resemblance to many of today's building designs inspired the term Jengatecture.
叠叠乐是一种游戏,玩家先用54块积木堆出一座塔,然后大家轮流抽出一块积木并将其放到塔顶。塔越来越高也越来越不稳固,塔一旦倒掉游戏就结束了。叠叠乐游戏进行过程中积木塔的形态与当今许多建筑设计极为相似,叠叠乐式建筑一词由此而来。
