_FORESTRY _SUCCESSION _BALANCE _PORTABLE CONSTRUCTION _LAND DIGESTION SYSTEM
At the planned site of the forest thinning process, I tried to construct a land-digestion system. With the placement of vertical objects, there is a certain degree of freedom in the production of these spaces. Lightweighted constructions create activities around the space and make it easier for loggers to move between forests. Human takes what we need from nature, and struck in awe to our Mother nature. Through logging and mountaineering, I'm trying to repair the unbalanced relationship between human and nature, making architecture no longer a divider, and then become a mediator for the integration of man and nature.
Architecture has always been built between human and nature. As time passes, people started to discuss about words like ''transparency'', ''blurry''... . For me, I think its time for us trying to jump out of the frame of talking ''boundaries'', and think about how to make architecture as "Medium" to mix human and environment.
ARCHITECTURE SUCCESSION
People go hunting in the mountains, collecting water, picking fruits, logging trees for building houses. We were all born in nature and raised by nature. That's the reason why we respect and struck with awe to our Mother nature. This relationship is based on a kind of supply and demand balance, and indusrty plays an important role maintaining this balace.

I started to study forest, both natural and artificial forests. I found thatthere are numourous types of spaces created by the growth of the forest (succession), gradually and naturally.

Base on the research, I believe that the process of forest succession implies the construction logic of space. The formation of forests seems to be random, but the plant distribution and animal living are strictly following the hidden rules. A few minor shakes will gentally change the state of the forest. This relationship is very similar to buildings and space. A wall, a column or even a chair defines the flow of spaces in its own unique way. I call this a “Stable Balance of Constant Pursuit of Instability.”

Forestry The Yilan Dayuanshan forest farm is connected with the Taipingshan forest farm, which was core of forestry development during the Japanese occupation period. In 1982, forest industry was prohibited. After 30 years, the government is planning to relunch Forestry. The first thing to do is to log to plant trees with higher environmental and ecconmical benefit. This process is called "Thinning".

The transportation between different forestry spots in Dayuanshan was connected by old forestry rail and ropeways. The Dayuanshan workstation was set up in the middle of the mountain and was about 1200m above sea level. Workers had to live up there for almost entire life, so that we can find a school and community center in the small settlement.

ARCHITECTURE SUCCESSION
Based on the Taiwan Forestry Rehabilitation Plan, I tried to construct a land-digestion system. The forest thinning process makes loggers move between different forestry farm every 2-3 years, and which is a presence of the interaction between human activities and nature. The workstation carries out the whole process of logging, decomposition and storage, etc., unloading wooden sheds, warehouses, log slides, rainwater receiving ... with repairing residual structures and easily construct spaces, we can meet both the needs of workers and climbers.

Into the wild, people must follow the schedule that was given by the environment. I planned a two-day mountaining trip, and three spots were selected - HanXi Indigenous village as supply depot, Nan'ao North river head-water point, and the abandoned Forestry workstation including Dayuan school ruins for over-night stay.

The first site is HanXi village. Generally, we must arrive here a day before climbing. That’s the only way for us to arrive the destination before night falls. But the problem is that there is no prper public place for climbers and residents.

I opened the water purification plant, so that the purificating process was displayed through the the terrain layering to residents and climbers. The general module of distance between two trees of artificial forest are 4 meters and 6 meters,and that is also suitable for camping space. The 9 meters water channel sends clear water gentally with gravity. Vertical and over-scale make people keep reverence for natural resources during the water intake process.
Site2. Nan'ao North River Nan'ao North river is a devastated stream. Climbers can usually walk directly on the riverbed. But in the rain season(July-August), the instantaneous inflow makes water level climb to a maximun of 3 meters. Using cables and refining structure of the early forest railway track to build the wooden bridge. If it was destroyed by the pouring water, it is not necessary to transport anything from submontane, it can be built again on the spot. With the cables, people can feel the instablility strongly during the process of taking water. I think this as a state of difficulty, danger, and instability in obtaining resources from nature.

Due to the inconvenience in the mountain, transportation works are all rely on a over-scaled logging column system. The logging column was the main spot in the forest farm also a spiritual symbal.
Site3. Dayuan Forestry Workstation
I used this transportation system and redesign several vertical elements in different scales and reorganized them for different use and create different spaces.
With the placement of the vertical objects for the use of forestry industry, there is a certain degree of freedom in the production of these spaces. Lightweighted constructions create activities around the space and make it esier for loggers to move between forests. All the strength were integrated to the over-scaled main collecting column, making the verticality not only reasonable for structure, but more spiritual and meaningful.

INDIVISUAL WORK. 2017-18

_DUSK _EXTREMUM _SENSING SPACE _INTER-MEDIATE (V.) _ONE IDEA
“Weather” is not only about “Climate“. It is a sensable phenomenon and also a description with the trait of time and state change of material. This “phenomenon“ exsists in space and time, and is constantly experienced and felt. We can also take “weather” as a condition flow between human and environment. As a media of time and space, the reflection and thinking of architecture is weak or even negative when facing “weather”. Architecture has been singly recognized as an solid element or a container, but arhitecture can never be discussed without the evironment. People, on the other hand, experience a kind of unstable status which constantly changes. Because of that, I look back to the relationship between our ontic sense, weather(environment) and space, trying to break away from the situation that architecture is just a frame or “shape“ to be detected.
23
WEATHER X WEATHERED
Phase 1. Images re-cognition In the first phase, I selected 300 images without rigorous reason. Two related images as a group, and then paralleled, reorganized them to find the deeper relationship between the two images or even different groups.
EXTREMUM I used a keyword to conclude the relationship I found in those sets of images, which was “EXTREMUM“. A suddenly dramatic change of the status which was originally changing gradually. The translation of the keyword into visible medium like drawings and models is the goal of this phase. Rather than the materiality, I tried to use the natural traits of the material and media to complete the work .

The changing weather is complicated and unstable. But no matter how unpredictable it is, weather belongs to a kind of natural circle and continue. Within a cloud, water droplets condense onto one another, causing the droplets to grow. When these water droplets get too heavy to stay suspended in the cloud, they fall to Earth as rain. I put my emphasis on this dynamic phenomenon. -

Phase 2. Translation Model, Material and A Window In the phase 2, I tried to translate the feelings and , experience and the outcome I got in the phase 1 into physical models.
The straightness of light naturally produces a clear boundary when the micro-protrusions on the smooth surface blocked the light.
Since this is a process of reification, I designed models in three different viewpoints to represent the core meaning - Initiative light. Passive light. and the new deisgn of a window, an element that already exists in our daily life, trying to make the idea from phase 1 visible, touchable and understandable.
The dark part is not evenly black, because the slope of the smooth surface created by the elastic cloth changes, and the interaction between the shadow and the light gradual disappears. The accumulation of light and shadow rise up to the critical peak, the instantaneously daramtic change, one bright and one dark... every detail in the process is clearly presented through the white cloth.

Beside the light, I added another natural medium into this window design - water. Based on the experience of the droplet work in phase 1, I found that the presenting effect will be amplified when two medium superimposed together. Basically, the window system is composed by a set of pulley, a triangular window frame and, the most important, a long and deep windowsill with curve ditch.
_Fig.6 The Window and amplified Reflection - Melting Ice. Calligraphy Ink. Xuan Paper
The squeezed out waterdrop fall down the puddle on the ground and create ripple on the surface of the water. The ripple also reflect on the wall as a scaled up reflection of light.

WEATHER X WEATHERED
When it is rainning, the rain fall on the window and flow through the triangular shape of the window to the windowsill. Then the rain accumulate in the deep ditch. After rain, the ditch is full of water. Meanwhile, if we open the window, the pulley system was activated to sink into the water contained by the sill. The water will be brimmimg and overflow through the edge of the slim part of the ditch.
Phase 3. Inter-Mediadte Rural Housing, House of Extremum A Weather House Livable and praticable architecture to refect human, environment, time, material and immaterial
Sunlight is a critical element in this representation. In a day, the most intensive sense of climate must be at dusk. At sunset, due to the tilted angle of the sun, the refraction of the light turns into a warm red glow, which is more penetrating and contagious. However, all these drastic changes only occur within a short half hour of sunset. I focused on this rapid and dramatic change, trying to find a reconnection between the environment and human perception through push-pull between super-scaled and micro-scaled situations.

In this project, except the periphery thick walls, the whole house is composed of curved lines. In addition the increase of the varied scale chang of the space, the curve surface brings out the versatile light. From sunrise to sunset, through the adjustment of planes, materials and break patterns, users will experience continuesly change of light, which also define the publicity and privacy of space.

The center of this building is a square column with no substantial structural functions, but it is an arrangement that greatly enlarges the overall light and shadow effect. The reflective metal plate on the surface diverts the light to the surrounding curved walls, spread out to be natural lighting. At sunset, the shadow of the column will be elongated infinitely, at this time the gallery becomes the container that accepts the shadow, increasing the directivity of the sunset facing the west side. _Fig.10 Plan of the Extremum House

_RESEARCH _CITY BUFFER _DESYMBOLIZATION _LEISURE OR ENTERTAINMENT _FUTURE URBANISM
The study started with the Amusement Park to understand the space of the entertainment, and to understand how the entertaining activities is produced and how a recreation space is planned. The range of the research cases was also expanded. In addition to amusement parks, entertaining facilities, playgrounds, spaces... will also be included for the research. Based on the outcome of the research, we designed a urban amusement space from the view point of the future entertaining demand and condition. What do we imagine about leisure? It is a place for personal relaxation, a place to share fun with friends, or it is a place to seek sensory stimulation different from daily life? How does our urban development affect entertainment? How does the evolution of a contemporary amusement park affect our urban lifestyle?
_Fig.1 History Diagram of the influence of Amusement parks
Started with "types", trying to understand how an entertaining space is designed, distributed and operated by dividing them into different categories (stop time, space interface, etc.). Then, "history" cut in to let us understand the form of "space" and "behavior" of amusement in different conditions of time and space. The next step was to go "inside the amusement space", from the analysis of the "facilities" from both the physical and psychological understanding of "how entertainment happens". Finally, we moved "outside the amusement space". By understanding the formulation of "laws and rules", it represents the government's attitude towards entertainment venues and then understand the relationship between entertaining spaces and the city.
DESIGN AMUSEMENT PARK
The research at this venue is divided into four areas: Type, History, Facility and Policy.

The opening of the 2014 Shilin Children's Recreation replaced the Yuanshan children's amusement park and was planned to become a landscape park in 2019. The area is about 42 hectares, with a wide hinterland. However, it is surounded by the Keelung River, the First National Highway and the MRT Line, making this place a isolated area at the core of Taipei city. Although it is located in the downtown area of ​​Taipei, the traffic and living of residents here seems to belong to a relatively border zone. Therefore, we took the site as a field that is not easy for people to see or pass by. It has certain convenience but the openness is relatively low.

The design proposal is pulled from the end of the spectrum to the middle. In addition to increase the stay time and density of usage, it is also expected to be repositioned as an "amusement park" for both leisure and entertainment. Let the users relax and feel happy during the experience inside this wonderland.
DESIGN AMUSEMENT PARK
We took the elderly population over 65 years old as the main target. With the premise that the physiological conditions will degenerate with age, starting with "Leisure" and "Dailylife", to minimize user's physical needs. Through former research, we understood the spatial elements that can be used in the entertainment. Based on the research, physically we attempt to manipulate sound, light, water and scenes, and psychologically we operated elements such as "sense of achievement" (consumption), self-focus, "social activities" and "escape from reality" (landscape, age), etc.

In the research, we found that “out of reality” is the essence of the amusement park. In order to keep a certain distance from the real world, the entrance is transformed from former children's amusement park gate that was originally used as a riverbank embankment into a long and narrow corridor, creating the feeling of escaping from reality. We found that older people are more active and willing to show themselves when they are interacting with the groups of same ages. Therefore, only participants with a certain age or above were allowed to enter, and because of the theme of “Bath”, they have to remove their clothes at the entrance. We take this as a representation of homogenization of all participants.

This is an amusement park for the elderly featuring “water”. These bath culture can be dated back to the Japanese occupied period of Taiwan, which was also the time the elderlies were raised up.

Following the entrance promenade is the sunken plaza, with the infinity pools on both sides make the scene "walking into the water" as the last image of the reality. Down to the square, visitors can see a homogeneously arranged door. After taking off their clothes in the changing room, visitors officially enter the park. The volume is filled with various activities, massage, aromatherapy, grooming, catering... The "symbol" becomes extremely important. To recall elderlies the good old days memories, words, colors, materials, characters, food and even smells of different ages and peiods are all targets to be designed. Through the vertical connection in the hot spring layer, the activities have a clear hierarchical relationship. From the group entertainment of dozens of people to the individual solitude spaces, while the undulating roof contains vapor, as one of the elements of the concealment of the activities with a certain degree of privacy.

In the end of the long wooden walkway, the plaza is scattered with a gazebo for visitors to rest after the bath. The extended columns are interlaced with the trees. Through the arrangement of density, the seniors gradually move with completely relaxed body and mind on the way out of the paradise. Back to reality.

EXHIBITION Research and Construction, Academy X Workstation - Towards a Critical Practice , JULY, 2017 _CURATORIAL TEAM This is a critique through the idea of both schools and firms toward architecture practice. Is architecture education an ivory tower to escape from a real world or just a training facility only for obtaining practical skills? Theory and practice seem to become the two ends of the spectrum of architecture. So how do the two sides expand their imagination of architecture if the architect is only built for practical reasons, and the college is only study for illusions?
Therefore, this exhibition is called the Research a n d C o n s t r u c t i o n , A c a d e m y X Wo r k s t a t i o n . The purpose that we deliberately let the office absent is that it can get closer to research and work. The subtitle is "Toward a Critical Practice", criticizing the word, not representing criticism or invactive, but a vital point of the whole picture. The most crucial thing in architectural practice is how to return to the foundation of the pursuit of architecture.
Designing Resilience In Asia 2019 International competition and symposium , JULY, 2019 _ORGANIZING TEAM. CURATOR. CO-EDITOR Every year, event conference chose a specific site from the Rockefeller Foundation’s list of 100 Resilient cities as the competition target. More than 500 enthusiastic students of architecture, planning, urban design, landscape and building science from all over the world have participated in the international design competitions. As the host school, we took this as an oppertunity for both schools and practical firms to think and do things together. With the objective of deepening the knowledge in resilient design and bridging the gap between academia and practice, we broaden the impact of international programme incorporating new researchers, partners and ideas to develop applied research projects, consultancies, workshops, courses, publications, exhibitions and symposiums.

所以
SUO-YI (and so...) - NCKU Architecture 106 Graduation Show , JUNE-JULY, 2018 _CURATOR Taipei set |
As the word " 所 以 ( SUO-YI, means thus, and so..., therefore, consequently)" implies both the reason and result, we entitled our exhibition" 所以 ". Every thesis design is the first step into the real world. As the curator, I believe that the value of thesis project exhibition is not only the revealing of the outcome but more the continuous reflection and dialogue. So that we tried to use only one material(metal waterpipe) to build up every shelf, handle, and frame that we need in the exhibition, making every element homogenized to show the pure spirit of the projects.

ILLUSTRATION INSIDE WANTS OUT - SHE-ZI Sandbank Renovation Image _2016 student hand drawing competition, Honorable mentioned
In 1970, the government planned She-Zi as a flood discharge prohibition area. Because of the restricted construction,it has preserved the almost original style.
I tried to reconnect this place with the core area of Taipei city through the river and the original expressway. I also reuse the abandoned circular river levee as the main way to connect the lives of residents, making things inside out, both physically and spiritually.
