The primary objective of the project is to improve the learning environment and prepare for the expected increase in student enrollment over the next decade, as outlined in the Master Facility Plan (MFP).
To achieve this, the modernization initiative will focus on adding a new library and gym, redesigning the building layout, upgrading essential systems like HVAC and plumbing, and equipping the premises with state-of-the-art furniture and technology. These enhancements will establish a modern and conducive educational setting that not only aligns with the school’s bilingual program but also fosters a culture of academic excellence.

With the aim of raising awareness, this design serves as a poignant re minder. The chair’s surface incorporates glass adorned with careful ly collected cigarette butts. Rather than imposing a complete over haul of smokers’ lifestyles, the intention is to visually and tangibly showcase the remnants of consumed cigarettes, seamlessly inte grating them into everyday activities like seating and conversation.

Job scope: Design phase for academic building, hanger and storage
Sichuan, facing severe disaster situations, requires a prioritized development of a professional regional emergency rescue center. Current rescue efforts lack proper equipment and a unified command center, leading to ineffective outcomes, secondary disasters, and economic losses. To address this, the entry design for the Southwest Regional Emergency Rescue Center competition aligns with national guidelines. The center accommodates 300 residents, trains 500 rescue workers, and supports 3-5 large helicopters. This comprehensive design ensures an efficient and enjoyable complex with essential training, residence, and supporting facilities for longterm needs.
New York Trilogy III: Redesign of the Manhattan Bridge Teamate: Shiyue Liu
Our chosen site, located at the intersection of Division Street and Forsyth Street, features two distinct spatial scenarios under the Manhattan Bridge. On the left, there is a condensed commercial complex representing everyday life, while on the right, the bridge’s structural support serves as a backdrop for bustling street life and stalls. These vibrant stalls and stores demonstrate the potential for community prosperity in the underutilized space. Surrounding the Greek colonnade are various religious institutions, highlighting the need for diverse spiritual spaces.
Our project transforms the bridge footings into a rocky monastery that contrasts with the above-ground architecture. The underground space creates a sense of monumentality and sublime terror, offering relief from routine and stress. The journey up the mountain represents the pursuit of the sublime and holiness through the integration of nature, architecture, and Chinatown aesthetics.

View from Meditation Chamber
The spaces beneath are born under the logic of earth excavation machines. Both taking curves drilling auger machine while the right space with a much larger scale involves a strip minning layer until one reaches the final
curves as the principle, the left spaces/ cells with a smaller scale are incorporated with earth minning machine. The monastery finds its way from the commercial footing, sinking layer by final meditation chamber.
