INSPIRATION Overlapping

The building will be built in the campus,so the basic routes and entrance depend on how teachers and students spend time.
The cube is set as a cuboid with a long edge facing the lake for better view,the angular excursion benefits to obtain more sunshine.

SHAPE GENERATION
Based on the human thermal comfort,we need to take some measures to improve the ventilation environment,like the hole.
Tank
Lake
The aim is to create a impact:When people are in different positions,the view presents different level. The hole benefits to natural ventilation and we try to arrange functions on the vertical direction.
Each floor of the viewing platform location is staggered in space,owing to provide broader vision and better communication modes.
Plants play an important role in improving the environment.The goal of designing the basin is to adjust the micro-environment.

Summer open
Dominant wind summer
Used double-sided PV technology, sunlight through the smooth clearance between PV, reflect the roof at the back of the PV cells, this technique can improve the efficiency of 30%,which improve again on the basis of the simulated data.
Winter closed
In summer,external air inlet open and take away the heat in the building. In winter,external air inlet closed,air circulation heating up in the cavity.
Roof greening is able to protect roof construction materials and benefits to thermal retardation and insulation.

Accumulated energy In order to protect the whole face the appearance of the glass curtain wall integrity, we gave up the idea of using air conditioning.And the active measures to ensure a comfortable temperature conditions do not use air conditioning. 1.In refrigeration system hot sunny day night,we can open the system and then long-wave radiation heat into space, and the cold will get stored in the storage in the cold box for use or directly used for cooling during the day.In the day the system is closed.

2.In cold sunny day,we can open the system to absorb solar radiation and obtain the heat stored in accumulator or directly used for heating. 3.In the rainy day,we open heat pump auxiliary for heating or cooling.
Composite turf can combine with reservoir, when rain is abundant it can collect rainwater and use it as supplement in the lack of rain.

This is a place for entertainment and communication, where teachers and students will have more chances to have a collision of ideas.

STRATEGY
The project is located in a natural environment.
The great waterfall becomes the highlight.
The climate in mountain is cold most of the year.
Changpai Scotch Pine is a coldresistant plant distributed in Changpai Mountain.
Th e re i s a s t re a m l e t r u n n i n g through the whole land.
I c a m e u p w i t h a p ro b l e m o f communication between visitors.
There is a certain distance between the mountain and visitors.
Plank road always share the co m mo n ro u ti n e, a n d v i s i to r s always see the limited views.
There is no suitable way for visitors to establish a relationship with the mountain.

REQUIREMENT
LENGTH OF TIME
Different activities require different length of time, so the time people spend in these places is different, which affects the density of people in different buildings.

When the visitors reach the foot of the mountain,there are more leisure activities.As the height is increasing, the exciting sports begin to appear.And when you reach the peak, you can experience a quiet atmosphere.

SITE CONDITION
ALICE IN WONDERLAND 2010 America Directed by Timothy Walter Burton
Factors
New Zealand is one of the most beautiful country in Oceania.Plants grow very lush, vast forests and pasture makes New Zealand a veritable kingdom of green,ecological environment is very good.North island has more volcanoes and hot springs, south island owns many glaciers and lakes.Plot selected in New Zealand Matamata,is located in the south island.Both the spring and winter, the scenery is charming.
INTRODUCTION As a primary school,the purpose of this design is to create more possibility in transportation and circulation, where children can feel fun and be more innovative under the influence of the architecture.Therefore I chose the movie called “Alice in Wonderland� as the prototype and extracted elements to design in order to inspire. Compared with the fairy tale,the movie was added more realistic social element,and the breakthrough of character is bigger,which is beneficial to inspire creativity.this to inspire creativity also to have certain help.Alice is not only a girl with imagination and bold innovation,and also owns good quality,like brave,strong.All these things contributed to the final breakthrough made by herself. I hope that when children explore more possibilities and experience deeper meaning under different atmosphere in this project, they can know themselves and get promoted as well.

Continuous variation of space brings different feelings.
The steps can be used as landscape pieces.
There is one or a few things will become the boundary into another space.
Children need to cross barriers to reach the other side.

SCENCE Long wooden steps provide several paths to the central region, this height is also able to see the whole scene of most primary schools, rich in complex, fun. Holes of different shapes are available for pedestrian crossing under the bridge,the view is different from what you can see in the square.Another interesting glimpse of outdoor scenes is here.Kids can also see other kids playing on the swings in the center.

REASON FOR THE DESIGN
STRATEGY Ⅰ
The question is...
I've got a message.
Umm...
Put down the phone!
We're watching TV.
Put down the phone!
We'retheir mobile phones when they are working,or just let them give up the idea,actually the principle is the same If we attempt Put to keep people from down watching TV. as some self-discipline software,like forest.We only need to give a hint to these people with poor self-control.When they receive the signal which the phone! Umm... tells them they cannot play mobile phone,then they will give up the idea.

MATERIALS AND TOOLS
BLINDS-THE CHOICE OF MATERIALS
paperboard advantage:hard enough disadvantage:too thick
The envelope bag advantage:thin enough disadvantage:too soft
Gift packaging plastic sheet advantage:hard and thin disadvantage:transparent
PRODUCTION
Painting
Cutting into sliver
Sliver
Heat the needle
Holing
Holes
Painting makes the plastic sheet nontransparent.And compared with scissors,the cutting knife ensure the sheets size more accurately.The flame burned needle pokes holes more easily and efficiently.

STRUCTURAL SUPPORT
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Ladder Rope
Slide to Unlock
Analogy Open The Blind
Blinds use ropes to place the sliver, I use some fixed chips and wires to a fixed sliver.
SUBFACE LongFeng Sun
I give up some component of the lower part to a open device.But the ways to check the messages is still not easy.So sometimes people must control themselves when they use it,for efficient work and better communication.
Practice
APPLICATION
Length of Time: 2H Time:5 Completed:52%
INSTALLATION
Length of Time: 2H Time:1 Completed:86%
It shows that when we use the device,the time we play will fall. The sense applies on another condition.When we have a meal with family and friends and the device works,the time we play mobile phones will also reduce.It is a good way to strain the bond between us.
