Hybrid Redundancy—A Type of Hyper-community PLANLESS FORMLESS EXISTENCELESS
from Portfolio for UCL
by HanYin
PROBLEM&SOLUTION
Due to industrial innovation and change of supply chains modes, the regional recession in old prosperity area continuing through decades .The inherent conflict is because of loss of planned relevance in original programs, becoming types of urban redundancy.

Faced with this problem, architects should rethink their professional scope. Instead of focusing on endless changes in architectural forms, architects should apply new technologies to create more efficient community models.
In this project, , I proposed a hyper-community model by studying the characteristics of digital technology. The hyper-community creates new forms of collectivity based on systematic think of utilizing ‘hybrid redundancy’ in our new AI society.
CURRENT COMMUNITY MODEL HYPER-COMMUNITY MODEL
Evolution Of Community Model
In 1939, New York's early industrialization boomed, and a large number of factories in the city center led to environmental degradation, and city dwellers moved to the suburbs. The PABT was built to facilitate suburban commuting.

Since 1980, New York’s industrial upgrading has reduced the environmental impact of modern manufacturing. The urban population has relocated, and the functions of urban blocks have begun to mix. However, the PABT still maintains a single terminal function. It leads to the lack of neighborhood vitality and traffic congestion.
HYBRID COMMUNITY 1.0
This project focus on the unequal distribution of urban resources caused by traditional function zoning. Taking transportation terminal as the research object, explore a community model with more mixed functions to promote the effective distribution of urban resources

HYBRID COMMUNITY 2.0
In the traditional community model, which can be summarized as tree structure, each building function is independent of each other and has obvious boundary.
The hyper-community model mobilized by manifestation in digital technology has no clear boundary between various functions, and functions can be mixed with each other, so that they can be quickly transformed into other functions. The area connection can provide information exchange as much as possible.

Considering the future development trend of manufacturing industry, a hybrid community model under the condition of new technology is proposed
