Ravine | Poverty | Lack of public facilities | Informal settlements
The completion of Panama Canal essentially vanished the importance of Valparaiso as a major port in South America. The consequences being that people start to flee from the city. Whoever stays either lives inside the city, protected by gated communities, or, for the massive majority who cannot afford a home, became informal settlers at the edge of city. This informal settlements is nearly cut off from the city due to lack of transportation. Education and health facilities are almost non-existence. The result is, the ravines became a seemly natural dumpster of Valparaiso, which keep worsen the already vicious circle. However, the ravine, despite its undesirable presence, provides an opportunity for a injection prototype.

Providing public service, community facilities, and more importantly, a concrete foundation to nurture social interaction for local people, the diversified programming is driven by functionality. From the lower ravine area stretching upward to the cliff top, the structure progressively incorporates a transportation system, daily merchants and vendors, and a cafe (Level 1); the clinic system (Level 2); and the library and public event space (Level 3).
12
The pre-designated role for this design has a variety of requirement of different discipline for the structure. To fulfill these needs, the structure has to conduct movement through and therefore establish bridging from the top to the bottom and vice versa. The immediate response to that is to prompt accessibility on the top and bottom level where the ebb and flow of traffic is highly anticipated. The site is directly connected with a existing evacuation route therefore motorized means of movement is the priority for the bottom level. On the other hand, serving as a extension of the public occupiable surface, the top level will be more designed towards pedestrian movement. Â The third mass, functioning as the clinic space, is more isolated as the middle level for privacy considerations.

House /+/ | Urban solution | Inhabiting Structure | Involvement
The design intention for this project is to translate the porocity and structural expression of the Pistell residence from a resort context to a dense urban fabric system. Such translation is targeted on resist the tranditional receiption of city street as tunnels surrounded by flat walls. Therefore, instead of inhabite a box behind the wall, the new suggestion is to inhabit structure by re-interpret the void among load bearing elements. The life around a skeleton is prefered over the life preserved in a built container. And a breathable, porous outlet is then inserted into a otherwisely typical NYC street walls. Such shift of context immediately served both drama and chanllenge. The fuel for generating the living environment changed from the abundunt space to physical compression of the context. The defining structure is no longer solely a boundary bracket but a skeleton where space grow.

Precedent Study Pistell Residence Paul Rudolf 1969
Rudolph earned his bachelor’s degree in architecture at Auburn University in 1940 and then moved on to the Harvard GSD to study with Bauhaus founder Walter Gropius, and received his master’s in 1947. Following his studies at Harvard, Rudolph moved to Sarasota, Florida and partnered with Ralph Twitchell for four years until he started his own practice in 1951. Rudolph’s Sarasota time is now part of the period labeled Sarasota Modern in his career and himself is considered one of the major founding architects in what is labeled the Sarasota School of Architecture. In the late 1950s, Paul Rudolph’s Florida houses began to attract attention outside of the architectural community. The Pistell Residence in Lynford Bahamas, 1969, is one of the products from this era of Paul Rudolf’s.

LONGITUDINAL SECTION: Relocating the design concept from the open context of Bahamas to the restricted New York City, the space is refrained but to expand inward. This make the longitudinal section dictates the change of space. The Primary four feet deep mega beams receives the segmented floor plates on either the top or bottom to give an elevation alternation. The ceiling also reflect the elevation change one level above and together the spatial progression is created.

Once the spatial compression and release is scripted, the programs are differentiated with their spatial needs. On the first floor, the enclosure ressess 30 feet to create an outdoor garage/multi-use space, which suggests entrance and invites people towards the conceived studio in the basement. The second the third floor are programmed for more private uses. The programs surrounds the central circulation/atrium forms a incomplete loop. At the ends of each floor locates the more intimate spaces such as living rooms and bed rooms.

Hoboken Civic Center | Urban | Interaction | Community Service
In 2013, Hurricane Sandy caused a major damage to the existing civic center mainly due to flood. Therefore, the new design would need to be able to provide shelter during natural disaster event. On the other hand, Hoboken is known for its dense urban environment, diverse living style of different communities, and interactive street life, which brings a challenge, to preserve the experience of urban fabric yet provide a independent complex that meet the various demands of the local communities. Starting with the streets, a pattern of clustering of volume and void emerges and informs the spatial organization of the city. Can we introduce and internalize such urban pattern into the building?

NEXUS HOUSE | Solar Decathlon China 2013 | Team NJHA Project
The Nexus house is conceived of as a transitional home for families living in areas of China on the brink of rapid urbanization. By introducing up-to-date home technology and functionality while preserving an agrarian sensibility, the Nexus House represents the intersection of rural and urban. The "NEXUS" is the multiplicity of ideas present in the house. Each element of the house has been designed as a hub; through which materials such as water, air, and power ow. These multi-functional elements represent original, innovative passive design solutions. The Nexus House respects the customs of rural Chinese family life while providing the advantages of smart, contemporary design.
