Perspective
The urban Bay Hive project is based on voronoi pattern which is decided by points and distance. The voronoi pattern is not only applied to exterior structure but also to interior wall and floor system. The pattern has same base points, however, using different distance strategy, it creates various shape of patterns. - Rhino, Vray Plugin, Illustrator, Grasshopper Plugin, Monkey Script, Photoshop and AutoCAD.

Through various conceptual and representational frameworks, the issues of mapping-layers. Point of view, scale, morphology, topography and tectonics will be explored as part of a larger creative process, embracing visual imagination, communication and critique. The purpose of this project is to experience and develope those digital technique and bring the idea into architectural reality.

The City in a Building - Providence, RI
Based on the idea that the key to the city of the future is a new relationship to nature, the project will consider the American conceptions of nature from the Native Americans, the colonial era, the frontier, the rise of the industrial city and the explosion of the suburbs. The project will explore ideas about nature: wilderness, pastoralism, agriculture, the middle landscape, organic farming, urban gardens, which have given form to our ideals of the landscape and the city. The project will reconsider how to integrate nature and the city in a new paradigm.

Brooklyn Navy Yard Ferry Terminal - Brooklyn, NY
This project focuses on the Brooklyn Navy Yard(BNY), a 300-acre area on the Brooklyn waterfront right across from lower Manhattan. The history of the BNY, since its early beginnings as a shipbuilding facility for the US Navy in the early 1800s, has always been linked to New York’s economic development. Through periods of great prosperity and rapid decline, the yard has always reinvented itself and has remained an area of significant importance for Brooklyn and the region. Waterfront urban sites and projects present an added degree of complexity derived from the special factors that determine their physical, economic and socio-cultural reality. Their condition of mediators between land and water brings to the fore a set of factors and demands ranging from sea level rise and environmental considerations to intermodal transportation, hybrid infrastructure, community involvement, preferred uses of public space, etc.

Yongsan has own memory which is we don’t know during last century. It means Yongsan’s memory was dissconnected from Seoul’s memory. So, How can we understand Yongsan’s memory and re-connect that memory to Seoul’s in order to make better Seoul’s Identity?

Rhythm in architecture is the repetitive use of a group of visual elements, at least three times, to establish a w “pattern”. Simple examples of rhythm are the alternating window and column arrangement of most high rise office buildings. More complex rhythms make use of what in jazz music is called “counterpoint”, that is, two or more interesting or overlaid rhythms. This is seen frequently in classical architecture, where a series of columns and openings are overlaid on top of a series of smaller opening.
Yongsan Park The location of Yongsan Park symbolizes an extremely turbulent history of war and occupation. However sad and sorrowful this history may be, it is still part of Korea’s history. The approach for the park design on the site is to uncover the traces and layers of the history by reusing many of the existing buildings and roadways. The architectural approach is respectful towards the military buildings on the site and ranges from 100% restoration (such as the Japanese Garrison) to the construction of new buildings on the footprint of demolished ones. Also, new additions are added to existing buildings to make them fit for their new use.

Pavilion for community
The aim of this project is to construct a community garden and public event pavilion at 333 Roosevelt Avenue in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. Located a short distance from downtown, 333 Roosevelt Avenue has the potential to engage the Pawtucket community. The area is influenced by the close proximity of City Hall, William E. Tolman High School, the Sandra Feinstein-Gamm theater, and Slater Mill, leading a diverse group of visitors to the Roosevelt Avenue site. 333 Roosevelt Avenue brings together Three distinct groups: the Chinese Christian Church of Rhode Island, the Heritage Park YMCA: Early Childhood Education Center, and Roosevelt Community Housing. Integrating the divergent expectations of these groups became a determining factor in the design. The intervention sites itself on the available green space, simultaneoulsy addressing the needs of gardeners and visitors. Prior to the intervention, the site consisted of a small community garden, used by elderly members of the Chinese Christian Church of Rhode Island, with a clearing in the trees adjacent to the Blackstone River. A parking lot separates the pavilion from the garden.

New Urban Strategy
Urban design is about making connections between people and places, movement and urban form, nature and the built fabric. Urban design draws together the many strands of place-making, environmental stewardship, social equity and economic viability into the creation of places with distinct beauty and identity. Urban design is derived from but transcends planning and transportation policy, architectural design, development economics, engineering and landscape. It draws these and other strands together creating a vision for an area and then deploying the resources and skills needed to bring the vision to life
Phase II
Public spaces are favorite places to meet, talk, sit, relax, stroll, flirt, girlwatch, boywatch, read, sun and feel part of a broader whole. They are the starting point for all community, commerce and democracy. Indeed, on an evolutionary level, the future of the human race depends on public spaces. It’s where young women meet and court with young men—an essential act for the propagation of the species. Numerous studies in fields ranging from social psychology to magazine cover design have proved that nothing grabs people’s attention more than other people, especially other people’s faces. We are hard-wired with a desire for congenial places to gather. That’s why it’s particularly surprising how much we overlook the importance of public places today. - by Jay Walljasper
