BREATHING INTERFACES GUANGZHOU INSTITUTE FOR RESPIRATORY DISEASES
Porosity or void fraction is a measure of the void spaces in a material. The project deals with the porous relationship of solids and voids in order to explore dynamically changing densities and the lines of intersection between different programs and spaces.

Theme: Porosity or void fraction is a measure of the void spaces in a material. The project deals with the porous relationship of solids and voids in order to explore dynamically changing densities and the lines of intersection between different programs and spaces. Problem: With the rapid urbanisation, industrialisation and development of China, comes vast amounts of pollution, which is mainly due to its dependence on coal for energy. The country is developing so fast that it hasn’t had time to develop new ways of producing energy and reducing effectively the resulting pollution. Urban Air pollution is estimated to cause approximately two million premature deaths worldwide and kill 656,000 Chinese citizens each year which is not surprising as China accounts for roughly one-third of the global air pollutants. Furthermore, all urban citizens have their health affected by large unnatural concentrations of particulate matter and pollutants in the air. Proposal: I propose to design an institute for respiratory diseases which is accessible to all Chinese citizens. The project is essentially a medical research and development campus dedicated towards making the city’s air cleaner and treating people who suffer from related illnesses. The brief follows 3 main strands: - TREAMENT - CONSULTATION - AWARENESS The main interest of the project is about creating “breathing” spaces in the middle an extremely dense urban context. The study provides insight into visual path porosity creating a sense of openness, which is analogy to healthy respiratory systems. Air filtration and light porosity also contribute to this factor. As interface with the polluted air, the building will capture and filter the smog like city air from the outside into the inside, going through different gardens of purification. These gardens are controlled environments accommodating activities such as tai-chi and qigong which need natural day, wind, and a sense of openness.

COAL CONSUMPTION
ASIA
In 2009 only 4.3% of China’s 559 cities reached Class I air quality (the cleanest level), 58.1% averaged in Class II, 28.5% at Class III and the remaining 9.1% at even lower levels. It is estimated that diseases triggered by indoor and outdoor air pollution kill 656,000 Chinese citizens each year. Damaging air pollutants include sulfur dioxide, partiaculate matter (a mixture of extremely small particles and water droplets) ozone, and nitrogen dioxide. China accounts for roughly one-third of the global total for these pollutants.
HUA DaU
The combustion of fossil fuels, whether to power China’s many automobiles, its burgeoning factories, or its expanding megacities—is a primary source of outdoor air pollutants.

However, it is possible to improve the air quality of chinese cities with large scale interventions. Reduction or relocation of polluting industries ( especially the ones dependant on coal), reduction of cars circulating in the city, increase of green public transport and some measure that can be taken. You can easily identify the effect of government intervention in the recent years in China, such as the significant improvement in Taiyuan and the performance of Beijing in 2008 August through to September for the Olympic Games.

Porosity or void fraction is a measure of the void spaces in a material, and is a fraction of the volume of voids over the total volume, between 0–1, or as a percentage between 0–100%. The project deals with the relationship of void and solid, inside/outside in the light of urban air pollution. It aims to clean the air in the immediate context, and provide perfectly purified air dedicated for spaces dedicated towards esearch and treatment of respiratory deseases.

HEALTHCARE TRADITIONAL CHINESE MEDICINE VS WESTERN MEDICINE
The rapid economic growth of China over the last decade has brought about fundamental demographic changes and shifted the balance between the country’s urban and rural populations. These changes are the drivers behind the government’s development of a national healthcare reform plan, which aims to provide a basic framework for medical services and the healthcare system for the short and longer term. As a result, we are seeing opportunities for investors in the medical and healthcare sectors during the market development and consolidation phases over the next decade.

They often occur in groups that can riddle a hillside, cliff, or other rock formation. They can be found in all climate types, but are most abundant in intertidal areas and semiarid and arid deserts. Currently favored explanations controlling their formation include salt weathering, differential cementation, structural variation in permeability, and the length of the drying period between wettings. They also frequently occur in granitic rocks.

GUANGZHOU WORKSHOP
STEAMED BAMBOO
Production Ecologies
Bamboo Stem
The chosen traditional chinese which was chosen to be studied during this workshop was bamboo. The team was eager to investigate lightweight structures made of bamboo. The three main qualities of this materials are its strength, light weight, and flexibility. Various structural shapes may be made by training the bamboo to assume them as it grows. Squared sections of bamboo are created by compressing the growing stalk within a square form.[20] Arches may similarly be created by forcing the bambooâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s growth with the desired form, and costs much less than it would to assume the same shape in regular wood timber. More traditional forming methods, such as the application of heat and pressure, may also be used to curve or flatten the cut stalks
Bamboo is widely available in China
The aim was to construct a foldable light weight structure that could be applied on any chinese site where bamboo is widely available. The purpose of the resulting structures would be to provide quick temporary shelter for victims of natural disaster such as floods and earth quakes where vast housing areas have been destroyed.

SITE WIND STUDY
The velocity of the Wind affects the movement of particle on the air. Where the wind velocity is low, it is more likely to have particle stagnating in the air. Therefore, air pollution is higher in the zones where wind velociity is lower,
