At dawn, when it was still gleaming outside and I was in my deepest sleep, the daily chit-chat army arrived in full swing and began their everyday conversation: domestic trivia. Most of them were elderly people together with energetic kids or noisy babies; of course, there were some peddlers serving dew-fresh vegetables just picked.
01 PRELUDE From Transport to Transaction: A Urban Islets Renewal Proposal " The residual spaces can be transformed into flexible composite spaces for more people to use. In this process, architects also play a vital role in coordinating amongst different groups. To build a sustainable development plan for cities."
02 SONATA Fluid Con-Junction " Those eccentric sites with informal solutions, having proven that urban anonymities have the potential to handle urban issues. We should regard urban spaces as constantly flowing places and embrace informal solutions. Because real communities are established by lively urban spaces."
Ground Floor Plan
SYSTEM — SECTION
03 LENTO The Journey of Wind " Unfortunately, mainstream values refute those informal solutions, regarding them as turmoil that needs to be eliminated. Our cities are sometimes not designed to care about our humans, but rather to be picturesque. "
04 ALLEGRO Life Generator " Environment has its magic. I am forced to change my routine due to the stiff campus. What open spaces can do to help us be more open-minded? The campus needs a mediator between the authority and students. "
PROPOSAL - FORMALITY of INFORMALITY
LIFE GENERATOR
I. The Garden
The fuzziness of the interface results in the interaction inside and outside and passers-by are attracted by what is going on in the building and unconsciously walk into the building.
II. Hybrid Space
The space boundaries are blurred to produce composite functions so the whole building is flexible to hold all kinds of activities. You can see or hear what happens in other public places and make a temporary decision to join them.
III. Open Corner
Besides, by setting another entry towards the path between the old and new libraries, there is a potential for the new library doing some adjustments. Thus, this corner would be a lovely place for relaxation.
IV. Study & Life
The bridge over the path further links these two cultural centers - one for study and the other for hobbies. In this way, you can easily switch your condition-working or playing.
Finally, as a life generator, this building bonds our campus life and provides a better condition for students, as well as citizens.

3D printing technology has been widely used in Fashion Design to create incredible forms, but they are unaffordable to ordinary people. Snowflake Schema Stole is a trial to combine clothing with 3D printing fabrication to realize zero-cost Fashion customization and introduce both computational design and digital fabrication into our daily clothing.

06 Solid Studio Material Research
Concrete is one basic material in architecture, but students usually lack the experience to feel it - solid or cold are its nicknames, but is that the only case? Forming concrete is a flowing and warm process. What I have done is to explore the possibility of this material in our daily life -after all, most of us live in it.

Scenario 1#: Wormhole
The hole is expanding by accumulation of your voice. Finally,it gets exploded.
Scenario 2#: A World of Points
You are in the center of the universe, surrounded by stars. All the stars twinkles as you speak. The louder, the brighter. Sometimes meteors occur, they are so absent-minded that you can hit the high notes to calm them down.
Scenario 3#: Linear World
After you heal the meteors, comes your bonus time! Grass grows under your feet unconsciously. Then little points keep up and the trails are solidified into shining lines.
Scenario 3#: Linear World
It seems that you are trapped into a Wards as every time they want to go higher they would be rebounded. You are shouting trying to speed them up, but they still can not make it, remaining a brilliant rainfall for you to enjoy.
Scenario 4#: Wards - Breaking
Please try you best to break through the barrier if you want freedom.
Trigger the Beams to hit the invisible cube until it appears, and then, break it.
Scenario 5#: Your Home
You eventually see the trees, bats, all the creatures that you are familiar with. It is somewhere in a forest, where is suffering a snowstorm.
But you can make some change: Cedars tremble with your rhythm and your voice can grow trees. In the end, red balloons will take you to the deep forest, and as the snow covers you, welcome back!
