A Greek Restaurant Rennovation in 210 6Th Avenue

Manhattan, New York, United States

The work area is at a cross section of 6th Avenue and Prince Street in Manhattan, New York. Due to a large transient population of the neighborhood, the client wants to provide a dining area where people can still feel like they are interacting with a colorful variety of individuals but also, a place to relax and enjoy the companion. The intention was to imply the Greek feeling to space but to maintain the richness of the New York City quality. It was a challenge for us to balance both aspects, but at the end of the day, we were able to work it out with a theme of “Modernized Greek Restaurant.” The storefront windows are operable to allow natural ventilation and also to be inviting to the public. The construction will be finished by September 2019.

A Town House Rennovation in 238 East 15th Avenue Manhattan, New York, United States

238 East 15th Avenue renovation project was an overwhelming project to work with due to a fantastic client. They were open to a design approach to settle but strong concept. It involved a careful and detailed study of materials so that both space and the material will speak clearly but quietly. One of the spaces I enjoyed the most to design was the master bathroom, which is a heart of the entire project, where the client will be able to relax in a peaceful environment after a busy day of New York City life.

The main window near the bathtub opens to the skylight above, and the pond below with wooden fins on the wall, due to the implication of a sense of surroundings of nature.

Residential High-End Staircase Design 238 East 15th Avenue

The client for the project requested a simple but luxurious, settle but a strong sense of design.

They wanted the stairs to act as a performance stage for them to welcome the guests for their house. My task was to propose the design concept, go over the New York Building code to match all the requirements and to 3D model the stairs with renderings. Post to the client’s approval of the design, we had meetings with

Ribbon Theater

First concept model derived from previous precedent research. Zaha Hadid’s music hall inspired me to create a single structure system that functions in various ways. A continuous single ribbon structure could achieve an acoustical system, circulation, lighting, hierarchy, and enclosure, all of these elements of the theater.

Applying the concept model to the site A difference of levels at the site requires a connection from one another. Ribbon structure is a perfect formwork to enclose the circulation of the visitors and also the structure becomes a programmatic space. Further study was achieved to generate correct circulation path for both pedestrians and wheelchairs.

Scale Model The final model expresses exposure of the building due to emphasise an outdoor structure for dramatic performances, rising tiers of seats for assemblies and entertainment in the form of dramatic events.

Bone Structure

Form The structure of the building is composed of bent glulam with CNC wood joinery. A well-known architect, Shigeru Ban approached this technique, and the result was successful. The structure is not only strong enough for people to walk on, but it functions as a bridge from the park nearby to the street. The slope of the roof is at 1:20 in order to allow wheelchairs to have access.

Skin Facade

and

Function

A series of glulam strips form the sink of the building. The gap between the layers allows lights into space.

The building is accessible from all four sides. The end of the building is lifted high from the ground so that the structure forms a slope for disabled people to have access and also it allows trucks to load and drop large volumes.

Each leg is not only structural elements, but they are also circulations and living space. The legs separated from each other expresses private space and the top space offers an ample open space for the public.

ARCHIFASHION

ABOUT The term ‘archifashion’ is ambiguous. It can be understood more specifically as an architecture conscious of its striving for change. The documented attitude justifies a relationship between fashion and architecture concerned primarily with functions, aesthetics, and rationale rather than one that attempts to deal with a non-ideological, neutral field.

For progressive-minded architects of the nineteenth century and their twentieth-century successors, it seemed essential to create a unified architectural style that would reflect its age, just as previous styles had reflected theirs. Also, in the significant historical periods, artists had not been free to choose the style in which they worked. Their mental and creative horizons had been circumscribed by a range of forms that constituted their entire universe. The artist came into a world already formed.

Two polar positions can be applied to modern tradition is undeniable.

However, the line between them is hard to define. The new age must exhibit the social totality characteristic of all historical periods. Hence, we cross the boundaries of the fields of studies and the audience.

The Symbolists held that art should not imitate appearances but should reveal an essential underlying reality. However, I believe that it should also be visually pleasing and functional.

The book consists of several projects and essays that can be read either as self-contained narratives or as part of a larger whole, each dealing with a cluster of related themes reflecting a crucial moment in the confrontation of architecture and fashion.

Study Model Version. 01

3D Modeling

Applying Epoxy and Alcohol ink

Finish

We started with sketches and drew the clean lines in Autocad. The 3D model was generated to complete the laser cut file, and we used a plywood sheet and acrylic sheet to build the physical model.

The frame itself was built as a mold for epoxy.

We used alcohol ink to add a translucent color for visibility. The process was kept as similar as possible to the process of creating stained glass.

The finished model expresses the rose window of the European Cathedrals. We call it Renai, a renaissance of a rose window and stained glass with a modern fashion element.

Double Skin Facade Double Skin Façade: So-Called “Green Architecture,” consists of two layers of glass or façade, creating a cavity wall. The Outer Layer of the facades frees the building from heat gaining due to the sunlight.

Cold air flows into the building, and as it gains heat, it evacuates outward the windows of the facades helping this process throughout. Also, the double skin façade blocks noise from outside, covering unwanted material from exterior exposure. The façade can also generate harmony with the interior.

The system, when applied in Fashion, creates similar effects. Double skin layers block sunlight; openings allow air to flow while keeping the body from being exposed.

Exploded Axonometric Similar to the double skin facade system shown on the left, the structure of the glasses is formed in multiple layers. The purpose of both structure systems is to create a shading system to let in a proper amount of sunlight. The exploded axonometric states the similarities of some aspects from both fields.
