02 CALENDAR
MANCHESTER , LAKE DISTRICT
Calendar, record time, record changes. As the wooden boards on the surface of the copper wall are removed by visitors, the surface of the copper is gradually exposed.
Due to the material properties of copper, the copper
exposed to the air and rain will react with discoloration.
As the exposure time varies, the copper will present different colors. These colors are a record of time.

By collecting and using the local material, The building was built by storytellers and listeners.
Start
A year later, some planks were take and burned and the copper wall were exposed to the air. The color of the wall changed after it reactd with air and water.
1 Years
As time goes on, the colors begin to appear green. Things in the lake district are slowly changing over time as well.
3 Years
After all the planks have been removed, the entire wall has this gradient of color. All that remains here is a monument to time.

Phase I : “Prelude” 8:00 am
A 10-minute walk from the dam will be the prologue to the story.
START
Phase II : “STORY” 1:00 pm
The three Spaces allow people to communicate with each other and become close to each other, preparing for the next step.
Phase III : “BURN IT” 8:00 pm
Storyteller and listeners start the Oral Storytelling. They will sit together in a circular fashion on the bay, and then remove one piece of the exterior of the building to make a fire.
Phase IV : “CALENDAR” Years Later
The building burned to the ground, leaving only a copper wall.The color of the surface tells the story of what happened here.

03 BUBBLE CHILDREN'S DENTAL CLINIC
LIVERPOOL UK Bubble dental clinic attempts to use exaggerated architectural spaces and colors to reduce children's anxiety during dental examinations. By creating more explorable spherical spaces, Bubble dental clinic integrates the process of children's dental examinations, allowing children to have more fun during the treatment process, thereby reducing children's anxiety. Children's emotions and the circulation are fully considered.

1.1 Concept & Model Tests
By Yefei Guo & Junyi Miao
Fabric formwork is a construction technique that involves the use of structural membranes as the primary finishing material for concrete molds.Unlike traditional formwork, this material is highly flexible and can deflect under the pressure of fresh concrete.The resulting form exhibits curvature as well as good surface treatment, which is usually independent of concrete structures.
This work will be based on material testing and will be presented as a household item, taking into account the integration of the work with the surrounding environment.

3.1 Final Mold Design
By Cong Li & Zifei Zheng
The diagram below shows the horizontal relationship between the formwork structure. From the top to bottom, The hanger is used to tie with the elastic fabric. A pinch is created in the center part of the formwork in the order of wood plank, elastic fabric, second wood plank, the second layer of elastic fabric, thrid wood plank. The concrete is pouring in between two layers of elastic fabric. The supports in the bottom of the formwork is used to protect the pinch and the main pattern from broken.
Perspective of Section Modle
The main structure of the formwork consists of one layer of 9-mm-thick wood plank and a layer of elastic fabric. Other parts of it is built by 9-mm-thick plank which are cut in the factory then transported to the site.The bearing structure is the vertical wood planks around sides, which are strengthened by central symmetrical structure forming beams along sides. The elastic fabric is hung on the beam upon it by nylon cable ties. The plate pinch in the middle is hang on the beam by steel strand. The concrete is poured from those four sides and the final total weight of concrete is over 300 kg.
