VRF systems are larger capacity, more complex versions of the ductless multisplit systems, with the additional capability of connecting ducted style fan coil units. They are inherently more sophisticated than multisplits, with multiple compressors, many evaporators, and complex oil and refrigerant management and control systems. They do not provide ventilation, so a separate ventilation system is necessary.

Many zones are possible, each with individual setpoint control. Because VRF systems use variable speed c o m p re s s o r s w i t h w i d e c a p a c i t y modulation capabilities, they can maintain precise temperature control, g e n e ra l ly w i t h i n ± 1 ° F ( ± 0 . 6 ° C ) , according to manufacturers’ literature

GAP TRIP We are tring to show the whole process of GAP. In the main purpose, I would like to let my shed not only a work shop for GAP, but also a social place to let citizen know how the GAP system works and how important the GAP it is.

Thus, it would be part of advertisement of modern agriculture. And, also, get the whole community involoved.

Citizens living around here can come to our GAP Shed in weekends, pick up the tool, work on field, and harvest on the field.

FIELD

Site Plan Our GAP shed is designed for Sweetgrass Garden. However, we design this shed in modular units for simple construction, and keep all of the basic needs of a tenant farmer are met in a compact and comfortable space. Becasue, according to our survey, the most situation is that the land is usually rented from land owner by the farmer working on this land. And several years later, Most likely, the farmer move to another place, and working on another land. Hence, it will be more reasonable that farmers can take the shed with them to the new place, and keep using it.

Analysis of Arrangement of Function: 1. Have to walk through Cool Storage when you want to get to Cold Storage.

2. No directly access from Cleaning Area to Dirt Tool Storage.

Part 3: Construction Drawing& Photo

Floor Plan The shed is designed with two semi-solid units on both the North and South sides. The north unit is designed for clean uses; it consists of an insulated cooler and a cleaning supply area. The south end is designed for “dirtier� uses; this includes the farming tool storage, as well as a transitional space for rest and hand washing.

A simple roof spans between the two units, hovering over the entire structure. A pleasantly shaded cleaning space is formed between the two ends. This area is organized for an efficient cleaning process. Sliding panels on the East and West facades provide flexible shading options and wind protection.

How to make it harmony---the new part and the original part, the building and the envoriment, the weathering surface and the function of the library, bacme the designer's most significant parameter. The dichotomy between the new and old building is disappearing. But can we creat an atomsphere that is inspiring for everyone? Is it possible to be original and modern at same time?

Analysis the different characteristics of different readers. Create a atmosphere of the site and the life style. Deal with the relationship between the building and the site. Respect the original spacial order. Lessen the disturb to the environment. Extend the life of a building by re-design the space and the usage of new material. Keep the original memory of the site, and lessen the pollution and the budget.

Terra Media Block

One of the most interesting points of the Chongqing city is the landscape. Chongqing is the most hilly city in city, like San Francisco,which clearly indicated by the drawing on the left. The idea of the shape of the media and study room is come from that.

The height of the room is adjusted by it's function.

Upside- Down Reading Room

The character of the upside down library is graranteed by the elevation of a substantial new part of its program. The different grains of new structure are brought together throught space and subtle transitions in materiality, and so is the landscape.

Part 2: Concept & Analysis The Beers in American

Analysis of Axis

1989. Belgium. Boy on bike. (Ok, make that a young man of 32). As our aspiring young homebrewer rides his mountain bike with “fat tires” through European villages famous for beer, New Belgium Brewing Company was but a glimmer in his eye. Or basement. For Jeff Lebesch would return to Fort Collins with a handful of ingredients and an imagination full of recipes.

The Theme Light

Natural

Sacred The site is crossed by to axes, one is from church to pavement, the other one is from the garden across the street. This two axes, one is sacred, one is nature, along with the allay and human’s activity seperated the site.

I started to think how to control these two axes. What is both sacred and natural? Then the answer comes. It’s light. So I made the light as the theme of the site.

41 Portfolio I Bingqing Yang

Learn from Cities

New York

Greenville

DC

Greenville, a typical southern city in South Carolina, is quite different from the metropolis, for example New York, in the north. What is the difference? For the most impressive and obvious thing is that the Greenville city is maintaining itself between the different natural and human pressure, While the the New York have a more geometrical urban plan. We can see the beautiful edge of the downtown of Greenville form pressure of natural force.

Process

When it come to our site. we can see that the pavement towards our site is right on the axis of the church. The church is the center of southern people’s life. We can view our site as the living room of the church, just as the forums in Europe. We welcome guests, communicate with each other and have activities in this brewery. What’s more, just like the Greenville city, our site is aslo affected by the pressure of human act and circleration. In order to let people see the church from the pavement, I divided the site in to two parts. And the people flow comes from both two side of the main street erode the boundary of the two parts.That is how the pressure of activity of human separated the site.

MIXED CITY September - December 2011

Project Location Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China Project Type Urban Design Studio Design, Collaboration Program 410000sf, Business District, Retail, Residence, Plaza for Citizens, Active the Community Tutor Ke Huo

Mixed City I Urban Design 49

Part 1: Context and Site 15mins Walk 15mins Drive Downtown West Lake Mt. Mogan

Design Guidance City, which is the container and the materical fundamental of human's social activity, is the "place" where people's life take place. In order to rise the value of the site, to make full use of the site, and, most importantly, to inspire citizens activity, we need to keep thinking about the sociobehavioristic psychology, the land value and the economic benefit.

1. The Urban Design of Humanity Always pay attention in the design of human activity, so that the co-activation of necessity and contingency activate the city streets, corridors, squares and other public space. The design, the layout of a large scale form greatly affect the people's behavior, and those differences in the gap space is to stimulate some occasional events.

Site Analysis

The site stretchs east to Dongxin Road, south to Wenhui Road, west to Shangtang river, north to the planned Datieguan subway station, with a total land area of ​​2.8 hectares.

In the north of the site is a complex subway station ,in the north-west of the site is residential areas, in the south of the site is luxury residential, east of the site is the city interface.

2. The Urban Design of Architecture The variety interfaces that people are experencing in a city is mainly combined by buildings. People follows the flow of interface. Buildings have its own character while forming the unity interface of the city. The co-activity of the in-door space and out-door space is affecting the active of human unconsciously.

3. The Urban Design of Detail In the urban design, the changing of details, for example, the difference in pavement of road and plaza, the difference in chosen of tree in the site, the difference in the building language, the connection between the blocks, is a way to lead the differenct life sytle of citizens living in the site.

The urban's whole structure is loose, the sub-area internal planed spur track is used in connecting the loose region city structures.

50 Portfolio I Bingqing Yang

The site is facing the main roads of the city, helped to organize a continuous urban interface, which have a high commercial value.

Design Concern

The relationship between the site and the river is one of the concerns in this design.

There is an altitude difference of 9ft from site to the river. Instead of put them into different layer. I rised the bank and form a "inner lake", Introduce the water into the buildings. To increase the value of the community. And to let citizens have access to water.

The large shadow casted by the building near the site is another main concern in this design. In order to get enough light in this limited situation, the most of the buildings are designed to be facing east. In this way, the courtyard can also get enough light.

Meanwhile, this arrangement is also good for introducing the good view of the river on the north to the community.

The block is located in the downtown of Hangzhou City, is a district-level convention center and business center area, holding an advantageous location.The site, which is he composition of Shangtang River, Datieguan River , and Dongshen River landscape, enclosed on three sides to form the "H" type with a waterfront view.

The density of the buildings behind this site is so large that it gives the site a big presure.

How to make the scale right to be welcoming , as well as matching the building around the site, is the third concern on this project. The main residence buildings are designed to be 4-5 level and the facade are design to be small scale to crease the sense of scale.

Mixed City I Urban Design 51

Part 2: Concept and Process

STEP 1 Divid the site according to one hundred meters walking distance scale, while the road link the city and intermittent riparian corridors. Closely organize the structure of the road.

STEP 2 Establish a regionallevel central square, and set outer space of the node, build a continuous tandem in the venue while changing external space systems

STEP 3 Commercial building types is seted based on land value, site of the static and dynamic partitions, a n d l i ve fi t n e s s, h i g h rise office is seted up temporary roads, housing i s s e te d u p te m p o ra r y the corridor and the city.

Part 3: Design Analysis

BUILDING SYSTEM The ground level of the public building cut in to form a negative space to active the community, and characterise the community.

ROAD SYSTEM Smooth the flow by the attraction of the nodes in the system. Make the road a flenct system, not a single road.

INTERFACE SYSTEM To emphasise the continutity of the walking experience. To create a welcoming atmosphere by using material that have a warm and natural color,like wood.
