Image on this page is a model for Pavillion. I prefer to draw some sketches and do some physical models for my design. Even though the computer science has developped very much, I still think that models are the best way to express my idea. I think with both my mind and my hand, I can understand the greater value of architecture.

01 BREAKING NEW GROUND Type: Work Force Housing Project Studio Work, Solo Work Location: School of Architecture, USC, LA Program: Housing Tutor: Patrick Tighe
01
Located in southeastern California, the Coachella Valley is home to one of the nation’s most vital agricultural economies. However, due to a chronic shortage of affordable housing for this workforce, the region is facing an unprecedented crisis in which thousands of families and individuals are forced to live in unhealthful, substandard conditi`ons. The goal of this project is to produce an implementable proposal for a housing community that can be built and realized. We have to consider affordability and market feasibility, social, economic and environmental sustainability. Through the power of compelling design the competition seeks to change the lives of agricultural and service workers and transforming the landscape of the Coachella Valley for the betterment of all. 02

DIAGRAM Minimal surfaces are the surfaces of the smallest area spanned by a given boundary. In the project I used minimal surface to create geometry to explore the surface and create some system that fit for landscapes and buildings. The shape gave us possibilities to create flowing space for the building.

LANDSCAPE I use the same logic in designing landscape and buildings, people can easily visit the building, from different views, some parts are outside and also inside, sometimes floors grow to walls. This is the most interesting part of the idea and the building. The shape also creates some central landscapes and gardens which gave the project active aspect.

The course research provided the tools to work in a video game environment and the possibility to manipulate a voxel. We use the game engine Unity 3D to do research in the game. We found a large production between physical and digital models. The material proveded were updated and challenged in order to define a design proposal which was unique to the team. What is interesting is the research studio focused on a new way to find solution for design. Like Minecraft, begin from video game design, which provided us a rigorous algorithmic set of rules and a fully open world coupling algorithmic design and intuition. 10
In this studio, we researched on how to design complex architecture system from simple geometry based on certain rules. We started to design our units from a truncated octahedron. The reason of using a truncated octahedron is because of its ability to create perfect packing. By playing games and study the game rules, we generate our own rules for combining each units together. With the participation of multiple users, the system can generates infinite volumetric space.
We used the game “Light off� as our main game reference. Because of the simplicity of the rules as well as the possibilities of different light patterns, it is an idea game reference. The game consists of a 5 by 5 grid of lights. When the game starts, a random number or a stored pattern of these lights is switched on. Pressing any of the lights will toggle it and the four adjacent lights. The goal of the puzzle is to switch all the lights off, preferably in as few button presses as possible.

Our rule is our only guide to create geometries. We played it as a real game and followed the rules, We don’t know what is the final geometry looks like. But it is this unpredictability that helps us to create interesting spaces. 12
DESIGN PLATFORM
EXPERIMENT 2
Most of the tools for digital modeling are speculated on single model with forms that already be decided. In comparison, design through a game engine is more flexible and possess much more freedom on the creation of multiple and intriguing spaces.
Following the idea of folding, we did more changes to our units to get rid of the sense of the original octahedron. In this experiment, we deleted some faces and cleaned up the units to make it simple and eligible.
EXPERIMENT 1
EXPERIMENT 3 Considering the issue of connection, we decided to keep the integrity of some original faces. The idea of folding is used in two pieces of faces. We also designed another units that light can be put in.

Another point is to set the maximum open angle for the leaves to avoid the same colliding problem. From the diagram on the right, 50 degree is the largest degree for leaves to open.
Leaves Unit Revolution

LEAF TIMELINE
The leaf unit is able to deform with the changing of time based on the idea of architectural weathering and 4D printing. The life span of the unit deformation is around a year. According to astronomical application department of the U.S., the elevation of sun is the highest during June and the lowest during winter. It means that during summer, the units will receive the highest solar energy which speed up the deformation of the unit. Like the bloom of flower, the unit will gradually open and reach it’s peak opening formation during summer and wither from summer to winter.

The fabrication process is looking to fill out the gap and generate the ability for units to act as individual cells. The connections, the possibility of curves and surfaces, structures’ of the unit are some areas that students need to investigate. This course addresses the ability to fabricate in different colors and materials, investigating the joinery system and the growth of the system based on the explicit rules.Understanding the stability of voxels by fabricate in different scales and figuring out the right technique and material for mass production would be the other outcome of this course.

25
This research studio is based on exploration of the potectial use of Microsoft’s Kinect motion sensor in order to help us understand and explore the potential of architectural space. Kinect was intented to use as an interactive device to control and interact with gaming consoles through gestures, its potential exploited by researchers and creative coders all over the world.Researchers an MIT have used it to control robots, it has even been developed to allow people to play piano on a simple table. Now we explore it to research by human body and human voice. We will find the connection between kinect and architecture. The studio lead us to strart from architecture component and develop to architectural space. 26
My idea of kinect using is connect with human body, and generate from interaction with a simple surface, and maybe further apply it to a large scale of facade. With connect to kinect, any physical contact with the surface can generate visualized live as people can communicate with the surface. The Reactable is an electronic musical instrument with a tabletop Tangible User Interface, it is a good example of interactive, with kinect,we can have interactive gestures to contact with a surface.
These process are our expriements of using Kinect connected with Processing and Max/MSP to find people’s skelecton. We start from head, then two hands, then all skelecton. Also, from 2d to 3d to get familiar with Kinect.
Tracking all skelecton in Max/MSP By using Kinect I get basic knowledge of people’s Skeleton: 1. Head 2. NECK 3. LEFT_SHOULDER 4. RIGHT_SHOULDER 5. LEFT_ELBOW 6. RIGHT_ELBOW 7. LEFT_HAND 8. RIGHT_HAND 9. TORSO 10. LEFT_HIP 11. RIGHT_HIP 12. LEFT_KNEE 13. RIGHT_KNEE 14. LEFT_FOOT
27
The landscape is another experiment of imagining the 3d world. I use 123d scanning things like shell, stone, flower to create a landscape. In the landscape, I describe shells as stairs, dupilicate and scale flowers to create a building, use stones to create continous mountains and landform.
28
We use Max/MSP to track people’s skelecton, we started from left hand, and from the code we can get the x,y,z position. Our idea is to use each skelecton’s xyz position to control geometry.
As Kinect can track people’s skelecton, we strarted to do some research of people’s daily movement like wave hands, boxing, turning hands, turning right, freez, throwing, drinking, pointing, puzzled walking and many other kinds of movement. We thought the interesting part is people’s movement of the whole day. People can have some different way to review their life.

In this project, we chose to base is located in Nanjing Yi Jiangmen, reconstruction project is the Republic of China period remains down Shikumen construction. Shikumen is typical of the traditional Chinese architectural style of the old building, our transform is designed considering the old building 's use efficiency is low, but the Chinese young people by the housing rent amount high social problems, through the transformation, we meet their housing demand. At the same time, our design philosophy is " four into one", namely a few separate buildings through the corridor and public space, which also increases the youth exchanges and cooperation. 34

The site of the project locate in Yijiang Men,Xiaguan District,Nanjing, where north faces Yanxi Street, west faces Huangtu Hill. Buildings around our site was constructed within late twenty years, while our buildings was founded in 1927, they were old enough for us. Shikumen has its own style, which contrasts well with surrondings. 35
Original Model
Construction of the courtyard space includes a layer of yard and the two floor balcony, courtyard space to ensure the building greening, brings vitality.
The roof of a building is used in traditional Chinese Hui building tile roof, ensure the construction of structures, but also with the surrounding architecture form bright contrast, reflect the traditional ancient architecture style.
Building at the entrance to the house is also on behalf of the Hui style architecture style, with simple wood and stones these basic materials to build a very classical facade, windows also has the beauty of the wood window.
36
The model is made for the reconstruction project of Shikumen design. With the site model and the surrounding things, we can see the location of the site and also we can see the four hours near each other, there is a large plaza before the community, it is a large space for people to park and communicate, it is also the center for the community to take activities like reading, cycling, parting and communicating. From the other side, there is a door for people who live in the house, they can go to the yard from this side. The most interesting thing are all in the yard, there are reading books outside the house, so people can get out of the house to make friends with others. There are also some corridors between the houses which connect the four houses.

City 's rapid rise greatly promoted the full-scale development of the old South Confucius Temple shopping district. Many passengers flow in the centralized aggregation, we build a Qinhuai theater of. The adjacent plots are used for commercial function of the building, in order to avoid this separation, we recommend plots unified into a single city block: the base of the central rising in a vertical block. Studios portion occupies the first building layer and the two layers of the main portion, and cloth to the business section, with office space. In theory, our building is now the city, forming a complementary two elements: as sophisticated traditional Confucius Temple grid and radical modernization will bring us a very different Qinhuai experience. 42
Site Plan Linear shape in the visual continuity,clear directional and dynamic characteristics, and tends to be static sphere cube geometry has a clear preference, from the form of the proportion, contains a strong movement tension. The curvilinear shaped body also has a more complex instability. Building in the curve, and are close to the streamlined curves of variable curbature freedom, rules and other rate curve has a strong sense of speed and directional. Means more than sports and continuous, it's super experience througn time and space to bring people to a boundle because of the shape of the flow in the linear of time, building, triggering the people the historical secular as well as future thinking. The outer skin of the building is broken down into a number of linear tubes, through these tubes juxtaposition intertwineed and overlapping and dynamic overall sense of direction and a sense of movement. Meandering interwined body part and the whole fragment the same in contruction fluctuating form is a mataphor for it faces the river.

This analysis is to compare the work to some other works in Shanghai, thery are familiar to each other, but how can Yang Shupu work be attractive? After investing, we get that most works are always focus on business, culture, but there is no one focous on music. As we have a old factory in the site, we can focus on design about music. Because it will be tatally dierent from others it will attract more people here.
Exsiting Buildings
The master plan shows the relation between the old buildings and the new buildings, the main entrance is in the north of the site, and the side beside the river are mostly old builidngs, there are some intersting space like the bridge beside the river, it has the best view of the river. Considering of the scenery, I keep the new buildings go down of the roof which looks like a mountain, it has a line of view for the overall.

In the future cities the functions of each building can be extremely flexible and changable due to the super fast changing rensidents. Individuals and small firms will live or operate in the same building for less time. As a result, the infrastructure for transportation needs to be re-organized frequently. In this proposal, we studied the structure and assembly technologies of spine in order to find a new kind of structure which can be built in a short time and every part of the structure can be re-used when the infrastrure of transportation needs to be re-organized. In this proposal we used robots to cut the members into precice lengths calculated by Rhiniscript. In the future the robot fabrication can be cheaper and widely spread. 56

Except for the architecture works, I still work on some projects related to architecture design which include parametric design, structure and mapping, these different areas of architecture give me chances to broad my view of architecture design. It is not only the basic design, there are some other wonderful fields for us to seek. All these fields will be gifts for our design.

Structure is a fundamental, tangible or intangible notion refering to the recognition, observation, nature and permanence of patterns and relationshios of entities. Though designing and constructing this model, we meant to give the idea that the structure and surface of a construction or building could be jointed naturally and random. Only with a brief hand-drawing sketch we start to build this model in wood and at the same time, we believe that all the structure elements such as pillers and beams would be reasonable as long as this construction standing there.

REVIT MODELING Digital Design Techniques Research Program: SustainableDesign with Building Modeling Tutor: Karen Kensek By using building mass, we have great flexibility with each specific type proportions. Especially of components in Revit model, we can control parametric relationship. We have to use the impacts of climate on building orientation stems from the ability to use passive design strategies like lighting.
