1. JingDong Headquater Proposal is a series of models made to test different compositions of masses with various levels of details. The materials of these models are restricted down to wood and acrylic in order to highlight volume and its relationship with site.

4. Body Instrument is a device working as leg extension. This 1:1 experimental model is made without any plan, section or 3D model, but with simutaneously measuring on the specific human body who would later wear the device. In this sense, the model is made in a similar way as fashion designer tailoring fabric.

6. 100 Light grid is an experimental model made for cutting light source layer by layer to reach 100 squares on the ground level. The conceptual multi-layer roof structure could each be inhabitated by different programme according to their various lighting request.

7. Expandshrinnnnnking is a performance model made for demonstrating the process of growing and decay. The model is not for illustrating anything architectural but trying to capture a dynamic process, however it ended up as a model with specific spatial qualities. You may see it as a Dry-Ice Driven Space Rocket.
