Fresh In Urban ‘WANGZENG VILLAGE WILL BE A CORE SPACE OF COMMUNITY ACTIVITY AND CHOICE’ The Fresh in City is a project of development urban village in China. With the booming of the economic in Wenzhou, China, Wangzeng village is a village transformed from the native village by rapid urbanisation and industrialisation in the economic advanced regions. The intention of the project is to investigate the relationship between an urban village and the new urban context, transform it allows fitting into the current and future urban city.

The intention of the design is trying to enhance the residents’ activities by the inter-relationship of themselves. The design is based on their living habits, and the activity shifts due to the time shift.


The new space designed by using activities has the permeability adapt into surrounding neighbourhoods to bring the change to the city and back to the village in order to solve the issues of both sides.


Inviting business as the threats to stimulate the environment, use commercial methods to attracts people to the site and activate the space.

In The Thick of It The studio investigate the ‘incision’, which is cutting in the thick urban skin. Through deeply understanding of land types, traffic information, costal information and living residents of the Port Melbourne. Combine with the investigations from ink drawings, got the idea about relations between landform and water, which water flows can generates different topography of land.

Opportunistic Geometries Problem: The site locates at the Docklands waterfront just besides Melbourne CBD. The problem of the Docklands is it lack of recreation activities and distinctive spatial features. Which less attraction made to continually make this place isolate from the CBD.

Melbourne

The proposal for the central pier offers a series of opportunistic strategies, through considering the local context. The new pier could enhance its visual identity with the surrounding residential context, using spatial form choreographs human processes and invites opportunistic reactions.

Docklands

The new geometries created by the pier link the urban fabric, extended in 3 dimensional, recreating the spatial sensation to change people’s behaviour. Using the idea of ‘lines’ and ‘fragments’ consists the interlock space, ‘fragments’ to obstruct and separate the circulation, but ‘lines’ indicate people’s movement to the central of pier and to different part of the pier.

Model generates the idea of lineary geometry, and how linear structures present the spatial qualities. Also showing a process which lines transform to plane create an interlock space sensation.

Light grey space can be developed for the future purpose, which continues the original form of the pier. N

The shape of the platform is the same as the fragment patterns of the stairs underneath. Two corridors create different functional spaces in order to provide a different spatial feeling for people

The platform in the centre of the pier has extended the circulation vertically, and is equally accessible from the beginning and end of the pier. It has been shaped by the concerns for accessibility, shelter and structure. It also provides a lookout point for people

Revival Alley Taipei

The project ‘Revival Alley’ has been developed in Taipei city, the capital city of Taiwan, which situated in the northern part of Taiwan Island to include the northeast of the Taipei Basin and the surrounding hill areas. The current city fabric of Taipei is growing to the south-east direction, so the west part of the city is the old city district with large amount of temples, heritage buildings and markets. The proposal seeks for a revival of the area, defining the way that the site can work as a whole balanced system for ecological and cultural, letting eco-tourists exploring and experiencing both nature and culture of Taipei.

Taiwan

The project redevelops the alleys of Taipei, based on the experiences of eco-tourists, considering their experiences depend on different days of travelling and their needs during the journey. Using alleys as a linkage connecting eco-tourists with the city and the mountain area, in order to enhance the spirit of local culture, expand the ecological environments in the city and boost the economic in the same time

Different sites are associated with different main activities and the required facilities.


Route details and space narrative

The way to Longshan Temple, the redeveloped alley has the typical arcade on the ground level of each building and all the stalls are moved under the arcade.

The large space between alleys provide a recreation and rest space, an area with tables and chairs, green plants, street food, bicycle store racks and toilet.

Parallel to the main street, hide behind the buildings, the alley is long and narrow, but full of stalls beside it showing the typical local market of Taiwan. The area between the buildings has plants and street food, a good place to take a rest before leaving for the next destination

Large advertisement boards on the sides of alley showing what kind of foods they cook. This is to gather the eco-tourists and residents, so it has tables provide for food, and bike stops for store bike.

The buildings in residential area are higher. So it feels like walking in a green corridor at the alley. It feels narrow, and the balcony of each householder obstruct the sight. But gives the feeling of a mystery and a curious what will discover for next.

After a whole day exploring between the alleys, ďŹ nally eco-tourists arrive at the place they will spend the night. It have comfortable rooms provide for them, large outdoor green space, traditional Chinese pavilion for chatting and social communication, and Taiwanese barbeque grill for them cooking food.


Furniture In Public This research studio is focusing on create a great public space by using 1:1 prototyping, develop a strategy to immediately improve the site’s public life, and invite people to participate. In order to use the prototype to create a linkage between people, to prompt strangers talk to each other. Several test has been done in different locations by consider its spatial quality, accessibility and visibility. Repeat and document the test by develop the prototype in order to understand the human behaviour and how the prototype can change human behaviour in public.

The 1:22 physical model has developed an intervention for site that enables it to be occupied by people for public use, and the intervention will become a way to develop its social value and achieve a design proposition for public exchange.

Test the intervention in different locations to see how with people it will engage in public. Also the arrangement of the intervention is developed in different ways to ďŹ t in the context.

Furniture in public space will give an impression to people by its size, location and function. The distance between people shows the relationship between them, and their observation direction shows their behaviour in public space. These are all the key issues needed to be considered when design public space.


Majestic Point Apartments Majestic Point Apartments in Serpong (MPS) is including two towers which sitting perpendicular to each other. Because it close to university campuses, so all the properties are aiming for university students and young families. Two levels of spaces were indicated for landscape designs, which are the ground floor and the podium floor. Ground floor has the entrance and retail stores, vehicles can access through the front entrance and pedestrian walkways are around buildings. Podium level includes all the functional area for residents like swimming pools, basketball court, jogging track and kids playground.

The concept design for this project is trying to create a modern tropical landscape, a dynamic and vibrant space suitable for formal and relaxed congregation. It use ‘wave’ to create flexible space and circulation, ‘water ripple’ to integrate the architecture form with the landscape design, and ‘rice terrace’ to give a perspective of multi-layer space.
