A COMPACT NEW LAYER From Military Factory to TED Community Individual work Instructor: Peter van Velzen Amsterdam, Netherland 2018.10-2019.1 The Hembrug Territory is positioned next to the ‘Noordzeekanaal’ close to Zaandam and nearby Amsterdam. Since 1895 the territory has been used for the developing, testing, production and storage of weapons and ammunition for the Dutch army. In 2002 the production and storage of ammunition and weapons stopped and suddenly the big and green territory became vacant. The Hembrug territory as a total will be renaissance as an innovative working and living area. This project focus on the Northern part of area 4 with the Cathedral positioned almost in the center of it, which will be the dynamic center of this territory. It will become an inspiring “TED like” community, with an event area, two exhibition buildings (art and innovation), a food building (market and restaurant), short term rentable small apartments with combined living spaces and services and short term rentable working spaces with meeting and presentation spaces. The project focus on comprehensive aspects of the renaissance, including how to keep and enhance the Genius Loci of the military factory, how to adapt new community program into existing factory, and what kind of new construction and material should be used to ensure sustainability.

WALL STREET From fortress besieged towards more equitable public space Team work Collaborators with Shiyao Li & Heyan Xu Instructor: Feng Jiang Guangzhou,China 2017.3-2017.6 Second Prize in urban design competition "In/Visible Borders" held by AIA|DC Urban Design Committee (UD DC)(29/01/2019) The old town district of Guangzhou is urgently in need of significant remediation. Ever since 1950s, the city has been undergoing scale expansion, population boom and rapid gentrification. Along with the process, large scale inaccessible gated communities, stewardship issues, fragmented land use and scarcity of public space are causing urban problems, impairing living qualities and displaying severe spatial inequity. In this context residents are used to clear boundary lines drew with borderwall under the living context. Simply tearing down the walls would not be a solution to the problem. Thus, how to establish spatial equity while in the meantime respecting the privacy of different agencies, is the key concept on this issue. In this case of Guangzhou, we view viaducts, walls, inaccessible “public” space as “walls”. Our proposal is that we stopping seeing wall only as a separation, but see it as a medium, a buffer zone, and the space “in between”. With only micro adjustments to the original border wall, we could turn those once physically impenetrable border into accessible, publicly utilized, spatially equitable places while still keeping its visibility as a border. What we propose is not a Version, but a Vision——to discover the potential to make huge difference that lies within the humblest commonplace.

TRADITIONAL DWELLING BLOCK
LARGE SCALE BLOCKS IMPEDES URBANIZATION INFLUENCE FROM THE SOVIET UNION With the introduction of the aid program in China in1950s, Soviet Union also bought about the residential mode called "the expansion of the neighborhood". A block consisted of a number of residential groups and supporting facilities. In order to meet the rapid expansion of the scale of residential groups and supporting facilities. In the era of planned economy, housing is built by the state in order to meet the rapid expansion of the scale of residential construction needs Unified planning, unified design, unified construction, unified man-agement " became the main construction mode
Large scale walled area led to low road density, aggravating traffic problems like congestion and inconvenience due to the increase in travel distance. It also led to the lack of vitality in the urban environment, scarcity of accessible public places, unnecessary detours along endless border walls, and isolated land within the urban context. Altogether, the condition expresses severe spatial inequity in urbanization. The site consists of several different agencies, including gated communities, accessorial schools, kindergartens, offices, hospitals and governmental administrations. With its complicated land use and separate administration, the block is divided by walls and partitions into isolated pieces. As we continued our site research, we discovered that our site, together with the viaduct, played the role of a "wall", dissevering the city on the two sides, while blocking people from accessing the Liwan Park(an important public park or the region)and Xiguan tourism area.
TYPOLOGY OF REDEFINED "WALLS“
CONNECTING DISSEVERED SPACES
DEFINITION OF "WALL” Typology of redefined "walls Definition of"wall An interesting phenomenon is that a lot of “unathorized constructions” were built along the walls spontaneously by the residents. These unauthorized constructions reveal the needs of the residents. More importantly, they are indicators of opportunities and potentials that lie within the walls. The walls, being the intersections between spaces, are the breakthrough points, where we can maximize vitality in the already attractive places, and insert micro reconstructions into spaces with potential, thus get the best result with the least interference caused within the oldtown area.
E. In this case of Guangzhou, we view viaducts, walls, inaccessible "public” space, etc as"walls”. Our proposal is that we stopping seeing wall only as a separation, but see it as a medium, a buffer zone, and the space "in between”. For instance, we could utilize the space under the viaduct to build pedestrian crossings to the other side, using the viaduct as a shelter from extreme weather conditions. In between communities, we could widen the border wall and insert public area within the space, enabling interaction between two communities while still having the visible boundary. We could utilize the top of the wall as a shot path through the gated neighborhood while still keeping its function of partition. We could turn physical separation into visual separation, using visibility instead of accessibility as the boundary. With only micro adjusments to the original border wall, we could turn those once physically impenetrable border into accessible, publicly utilized, spatially equitable places while still keeping its visibility as a border Achieving a border of invisiblity (accessible, for the public and spatially equitable)and visibility(serving as an indicator of border

A NEW CITY’S AGORA An outdoor theater in city park Individual work Instructor: Lin Zhe, Feng Jiang Guangzhou,China 2016.9-2016.12 I love going to theater, museum and gallery. However, when I enjoy myself there, I am always wondering whether art must happened in these architectural “boxes”. Will they happened on the street? Will they happened in a park? There are increasing kinds of art and they should not be limited in the indoor. The site of this project sit on the central square of an important city park. I observed that at different times during the day the square filled with different spontaneous but chaotic activities (including performances, exhibitions, festivals and other forms of entertainment). I figure it an ideal place to combine park space with theater space.

The site is on the square of the urban Culture Park, I observed that at different times during the day the square filled with different spontaneous but chaotic activities (including performances, exhibitions, festivals and other forms of entertainment). Then I wonder if I can combine the theater with the park, so people can enjoy theater in the park and while there is no theater plays it will not occupy the suqare.

A FABRICATED TEMPLATE OF OFFICE BUILDING Reusable modular construction and fabricated flexibility Team work Collaborators with SiYan Liu, Heyan Xu and Zhu Yao Instructor: Xu Jihang 2018.3-2018.6 Nowadays in the global context, we are facing the exploding of new building as well as increasing vacancy of existing building. A large part of the vacant buildings are office buildings due to the rapid change of requirement of working space. In this project, we are trying to develop a “template� of office building within limited type of components, which can be rapid constructed and reassemble as the market demand changing. After study the Allen Curve Theory from MIT Professor Thomas Allen discovered in office building, we divided the office building into working space and communicating space. In stereotype of a pre-fabricated or modular building, the space is always cubic and repeating. We defined the communicating space as a series of sphere typology, tried to explore the possibility of a fabricatable and refabricatable sphere construction and the diversity of the fabricating space.
SPACIAL PATTERN OF OFFICE BUILDING Apply Allen Curve in office building design In communication theory, the Allen curve is a graphical representation that discovered by Professor Thomas J. Allen in the late 1970s, reveals the exponential drop in frequency of communication between engineers as the distance between them increases. We divided the modern office space into working space and communicating space. The standard service radius of communicationg space is 25m according to the allen Curve.
Position and Quantity of Communicating Space Generated by Grasshopper Defind 25m in horizontal and 4.5 in vertical of service radius of communicating space

EXTENDED ALLEYS A Folk Culture Museum in Historic Context Individual work Instructor: Jiang Wenyi Guangzhou,China 2016.5-2016.6 The traditional arcade streets host a lively scene of trade between the owners of small shops and customers who are walking through. In my opinion, it is the most typical excellent case of traditional public space in Guangzhou. When I first go to the site, I feel it inappropriate to build a Megastructure building. In order to not only maintain but also improve this daily routine of residents, I opened the first floor and extend the alleys into the building to amplify the public space for dweller's daily life and traditional festival, minimizing the interference to the small scale street and maximizing the spirit of regional culture.
