EXPERIENCE Urban Strategies Inc. Toronto, Canada Urban Designer/ 2019.03- 2020.05
Sheridan Campus Master Plan I worked as a core designer in the master plan process, with the ability to come up with design solutions for the future 30 years of development in all three campuses of Sheridan. In support of the design strategy, I was able to do research independently in enrolment and GFA growth, collect and visualize the data while providing insightful findings to reveal the urgent growth needs of the institution. Pickering Place Block Development Plan (36 acre) Served as a core designer, I worked around with the land-locking condition of the site by providing design schemes with strong understanding of local design guidelines and market reality. Under a time-sensitive workframe, I was able to work long hours to prepare final deliverables with the highest graphic standards while being responsive to the team and client. Seneca Markham Campus Development Plan (22 acre) Served as a chief designer, I successfully prepared and delivered three design scenarios with balanced solutions for the instituion and the market demand. With a strong grasp of the local planning policies, I was able to explore options using multiple methods (sketch, to-scale hand drawing and ArchiCAD) in a timely manner.

Qingdao West Coast CBD Conceptual Planning (~1,000 acre) I served as an urban designer for business precinct schematic design in the massive land development. I produced and managed urban design components, supervised multi-media presentation for the final deliverables. Xingfeng Cement Plant Redevelopment Planning & Urban Design (268 acre) With the challenge of historic structure preservation and new community development, I worked as an urban designer in site analysis, site schematic design and final deliverables. I possessed the ability to visualize the site condition using multiple methods, create alternative reuses of the old structure and supervise multi-media presentation.

Evolution of Space Needs
A series of data-driven studies of the existitng condition reveal the urgentness of growth in all three Sheridan campuses. With a strong understanding of the personality of each campus and the interrelationship between programmes, the master plan process involved extensive consultation with the campus community, various stakeholders and the broader community. This broad- based consultation process was essential to develop a Master Plan rooted in the Sheridan community’s vision for the future.

Primary Access Streets The Primary Access streets will support and enhance the physical access and arrival on campus. They include a re-aligned Ceremonial Boulevard which maintains the existing intersection at Trafalgar Road and a proposed new signalized intersection mid-way between Ceremonial Boulevard and Sheridan College Road. Both streets will accommodate multi-modes of transportation and allow safe connections for both pedestrians and cyclists onto campus.
Section C-C
As shown in Section C-C, these roadways will be designed to accommodate three vehicular lanes, two for travel and one for left turning. On street parking is not contemplated on Primary Access Streets as the overall block length is short and results in insufficient vehicular stacking distances. Bike lanes will be located on both sides of the street and elevated from the roadway for added safety. Cycling infrastructure within these streets will be a key part of the overall active transportation network linking future cycle routes planned for Trafalgar Road through the Primary Access Streets and to a multi-use trail along the Morrison Creek Valley edges.

Six towers are proposed on the block. They are strategically placed to be setback from the Esplanade South to mitigate shadow impacts on the Esplanade Park. The tallest tower is at 35 storeys and is placed near the Esplanade South and Glenanna Road intersection to create a gateway into the community. Tower heights range from 15 to 35 storeys to provide visual interest in the skyline. The tower floorplates will not exceed 800m2 to enhance sunlight penetration and sky views to and from surrounding streets creating a greater sense of privacy.

The majority of the buildings on the block will be residential with some at-grade retail in towers, mid-rise and townhouse forms, some of which will function as a building base or podium for a taller tower. The block will include a mix housing ownerships in rental and condos to provide options for future residents. Mid-rise buildings range from 6 to 8 storeys to create a consistent streetwall and provide adequate podium sizes. Retail ground floor heights within mid-rise buildings will be generous with a high degree of transparency to connect outdoor and indoor spaces, creating visual interest for pedestrians.

The new streets and pedestrian mews break up the development blocks to create movement, provide porosity and flow throughout the block. North south connections through the block connects the community up to City Hall and south to Pickering Parkway to connect to the GO station. The north south road is planned to be a woonerf to highlight the notion of streets as places as well. Streetscaping improvements will add to the public realm enhancing the quality of the neighbourhood. Mid-block connections through Block D and E create a walkable neighbourhood and provide important porosity to the Esplanade Park.

Option 2: Low-Rise Office + Student Residence Overview This option combines low-rise, condominium office buildings with a 6-storey student residence building containing 500 beds. Based on recent precedents at other Canadian institutions, it is assumed the residence would be privately operated, with suite-style units of 3-5 bedrooms and approximately 450 square feet of gross floor area per student.

This option demonstrates the potential to develop a low-rise office campus with four additional office buildings of two to three storeys, with office units in each building sold as condominiums.
This option combines low-rise, condominium office buildings with a 6-storey student residence building containing 500 beds. Based on recent precedents at other Canadian institutions, it is assumed the residence would be privately operated, with suite-style units of 3-5 bedrooms and approximately 450 square feet of gross floor area per student.

Area: 283 ha (700 acre) Date:2015-2016
Liberty University became a big client for VMDO since 2014, from the library to freedom tower design, the master plan document was expected to be a finale to show future developments on the campus. I worked closely with senior associate and consultants (VHB, KWLS etc.)on multiple tasks, which including landscape design, master plan scheme design and graphic documents preparation. This experience offered a good scope to understand how campus planning works in an “untypical� way.

新江南社区
Sanlin project provides a fusion of new watertown style and modern “shanghai style“(海派) .To achieve this vision, design guideline is well needed. My role is to create a detailed streetscape design for the main roads in the area. I carefully studied typical street life in old French Concession in Shanghai, researched on PlanNYC, Boston Complete Streets and NACTO Urban Street Design Guide to align my design with best practices in the world. I worked closely with senior urban designers to craft a series of new modes of streets and created distinguishing characters in each street. 海派风貌湾区

Taiting Historical District Redevelopment 1.1 区位与历史 Location & History
Anshan,Liaoning, CHINA
Area: 0.36ha (0.89 acre) 台町（たいまち）位于鞍山市铁东区，处于东山（现玉佛山）分 水岭处，东侧是山，西侧是平原，不仅风景宜人，而且符合风水 Date: 2017-2018 中“坐北朝南”的观念。“台町”，是日文称呼。台，指台地， 即高岗、山坡；町，指村庄和街道。两个字合在一起，十分准确 地表达了“台町”的含义—“山坡上的村庄”。
As the initiative district of a 15 hactare residential area 台町历史街区位是一处人文与自然交融的场所 , 片区内拥有 1920 年始建的和洋式建筑 99 所，建筑面积 10 万平方米，加上 built in 1920s by the Japanese, this area depicted the 绿化面积共 20 万平方米。 memory of the city. As being transformed into city’s new gateway, I am in charge of the survey and design process in a design team of 5. We envisioned the area to be a public plaza with unique stories, as well as serving the city as a “living room“. Historical buildings are renovated while residents are not needed to be relocated, private gardens are opened to public with the essense of Japanese style, engawa spaces are also proposed for visitors and locals to stop for a rest.
