ACADEMIC WORK
OUTSIDE IN Design Research Studio ‘Section and the City‘ | Robin Dripps Purpose | Residential Tower Location | Chelsea, New Yor
With residential blocks on the perimeter and a shared public space in the center, the tower is more of a vertical community than a building. The public space formed by continuous surface bending the outside to the inside. The fluid form in the center was a community park, a community gallery, a coffee shop, a place for gathing. The programs once considered as an outside activities were now brought into the inside of the tower. In response to the number of residential units and the amount of residences, community gardens were inserted into different locations on different level. Paths were formed to connect the gardens and lead people into the public space.

The residential units were positioned on the perimeter of the building to take advantage of the city views. The enclosed space within the perimeter were formed by a fliud shape, which the boudary changes at every level. The continuous surface can either be the wall of a space enclosed, or a roof for the other side. Or it can be a threshold both physically and visually.

THE CHARGED VOID Foundation Studio ‘One Million‘ | Matthew Jull, Manual Bailo Purpose | Mixed-Use Planning Location | Atlantic City, US
Since its founding as a health resort by Dr. Jonathan Pitney in 1819, Atlantic City has been a destination for those seeking recreation and relaxation. Pitney’s vision to connect Philadelphia to the coastal landscape. Over the 20th century, Atlantic City has transformed from a city whose culture attracted visitors from around the world to this seaside destination to one dominated by the economic powerhouse casinos. The existing condition on Atlantic City’s boardwalk has developed into an austere sea-wall that disconnects visitors and residents from the specific landscape that the city inhabits on the coast. The casino creates a completely interior experience, where fabricated environments replace the natural, and complicated circulation patterns are generated to create a maze for inhabitants to meander through slot machines and blackjack tables. The charged void seeks to invert the interior tendency that the casino generates, and instead create a network of paths, levels, and programs that allow visitors to engage a wide variety of experiences that the surrounding mega-structures restrict.

The project is to create a cultral axis in the city which will provide programs including an art school, a preforming art center, residentials, commercial space and hotels. In order to improve the circulation condition and invert the completely indoor tendency create by the mega structure of casino. The first intervention (1) within the cultural axis is to provide a monorail link that connects both visitors from outside the city and residents who lack a connection to the waterfront. The art school (2) is positioned directly above the intersection of the Atlantic Expressway and Atlentic Acve. forms a new entry point. At the opposite end sits the performing art center (3), positioned to engage visitors from surrounding neighborhoods and casinos. A group of hotels (4) connects to surrounding casino hotels. Paths (5) meandering through the site at different levels brought the boardwalk into the site. Light tunnels connects different programs (6).

ROUGE COSMOPOLITAN GSA 2015 Competition ‘Design the City as a Resource’ | Bill Sherman Purpose | Urban Strategy Location | ShenZhen, China
The classic cocktails were very simple: just water, sugar, spirit and bitters. The magic is the balance of the bitterness, sweet, herbal and the winery flavor. Just like a classic cocktail, the story of the new Sungang and Qingshuihe area is about the remix of the four existing resources. Given a site of prompt growth, where the invention replaces the convention, the diversity hybrids the density. Rather than searching for solution by introducing new forms of infrastructure, the question falls on how to utilize those were existing and maximize the availability of each resource. Being located only 2km away from the boarder, the transportation resource allows logistic industry grow on the site. Large warehouses for both storage and production were developed, which as a result, attracts migrate workers to find jobs. Spontaneously, urban villages emerged under the pressure of providing temporary and inexpensive housing for the workers. However, even though the resources are all presented on the site, the incoherent of the different resources either resulted from the blocking of railroad or the lacking of accessibility subdued the use of the resource. The proposal, similar to a cocktail, is to link and mix the resources to optimize the use. Multiple transportation modes reaching the site to surroundings. Introducing walking and cycling paths combined with green way makes nature available in every corner of the city. New working /business style, a hybrid of home-factory-office, emerges from the new light rail system which transporting both goods and people. Mix up programs in urban village and warehouse to create a more accessible life with flow of goods. Down zoning urban village and up zoning warehouse balances the density of the city which not only improve life quality but also increase land utilization efficiency.

SHENZHEN
Shenzhen, one of the most commercialized and developed cities in China, was only a fishing village 34 years ago. However, the economic reformation in 1978 transformed the village into the Shenzhen you see right now. By openning up the city for foreign investment and providing opportunities for entrepreneurs to start business. With both Chinese citizens and foreign nationals investing enormous amounts of money in the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone(SEZ). Hundreds of industrial buildings have been built in Shenzhen, the city eventually became one of the economic powerhouses of China as well as the largest manufacturing base in the world. rouge cosmopolitan

POPULATION
Termporary Resident Dominated
Being a manufacturing base provides enormous job opportunities, which attracts young workers moving to Shenzhen from all over China. As a result, the population in Shenzhen were dominated by temporary migrate workers. Most of the jobs were manufacturing related, with very minimum income and intensive working load. Workers are mostly staying in affordabe small apartments close by their working location.

The site was dominated by four elements: very densely inhabited urban village, large logistic warehouses, one railroad connects Hong Kong and Shenzhen and a wetland runs parallel with the railroad intersect a hill divide the site into four parts. These four elements was translated into a layout of different resources: human resource, nature resource, transportation resource and capital resource.
GSA2015 competition ‘Design the City as a Resource’ | Bill Sherman
The existing condition with four resources lacking of connection and accessibility requires a rethink. However the strategy, rather than bringing a new typology, is to re-arrange what is already given.
With the same ingredients, a cocktail of the four resource amplified the vantages and compensate the disadvantages.
rouge cosmopolitan
GSA2015 competition ‘Design the City as a Resource’ | Bill Sherman
NATURE RESOURCE The wetland to the east of the railroads and the two hills running east and west covers almost 1/8 of the site and provides large amount of nature resources to the site and ShenZhen. However, the railway cut off the connection between the residences and the wetland, and the hills themselves were not accessible for the residence. The strategy is to provide bridges on top of the railroads to link the urban village with the wetland park, and create green paths meandering through the urban villages.
rouge cosmopolitan
TRANSPORTATION RESOURCE A mix of both bike paths and light rails meandering through urban village provide a short cut for the residences to either visit their friends in other buildings or go to work without stuck in the rush hour traffic on the ground. Light rails carrying the products from the transportation hub runs through the different warehouses and distribute the goods into different streamlines. Both the human resources and capital resources are linked by the transportation resources in here.
GSA2015 competition ‘Design the City as a Resource’ | Bill Sherman
HUMAN RESOURCE Urban villages, as the first stop for young people especially migrate workers, contributes tremendously to ShenZhen’s rapid development. Diverse programs in urban village not only provides newcomers more options to start their own business but also keeps the traditional neighborhood relationships. Connecting with city by multiple transportation systems makes it easier for newcomers to work from home for example, on-line store owners.
rouge cosmopolitan
CAPITAL RESOURCE The west of the railway station consists of large warehouses for storage and production. In order to optimize the use of the facility, retails and exhibition spaces were introduces into the simply functioned warehouses. Light rails were also used to transport goods. Now the warehouses becomes places for visitors to see the entire process of the moving of a capital resource: transporting of the raw materials, manufacture, display and selling.

ADDITIVE SUBTRACTION Design Research Studio ‘QueensWay‘ | Julie Bargmann Purpose | Elevated Park Location | Queens, New York City, US
The segment of QueensWay between 101 Av. and 103 Av. was historically Ozone Park Station of LIRR. As the tracks were abandoned in the 1960s, the railroad bed becomes bed for successive vegetation. The structure beneath were eventually occupied auto repair companies, small industries and storage for surrounding businesses. As a result, the connection between 99 St. and 100 St. has been completely cut off. The objective of design is to bring back activities by opening up the space underneath the QueensWay. With a Single action of subtraction from the existing strucuture, a public space is added to the QueensWay. A minimum subtraction of removing the wall allow more space for the sidewalk. A medium subtraction of taking out part of track bed bring down the sunlight and bring back the connection between lower and above. A maximum subtraction of eliminating the entire track bed completely reveal the Queensway. Now the once mysterious space become a public plaza, for people to stop by, to meet and to access the QueensWay.

The approaches to acheive the objectives start from subtraction and addition to the site. With a single action of subtraction from the existing, the space underneath the Queensway were opened up and the connection was brought back both horizontally and vertically. A minimum subtraction by removing the wall will allow more space for sidewalk. A maximum subtraction of eliminating the entire track bed and completely revealing the strucutre would create an open plaza for gathering event.

GARDEN CINEMATEQUE Studio | Paul Kariouk Purpose | Movie Theater Location | Gatinuel, Hull
Instead of hidden in the dark, theaters are projecting out from the facade. The two elevated theaters become two luminous light boxes. An extra layer of skin wrapping around the theater created a narrow path around. Rectangular openings light up the cinema at night. The two blank walls at the end of each theater becomes the movie screen of the city. Sillouettes of visitors are the most vivid movie to the city. A sunken garden brings energy to the cinema and make the two projecting boxes sculptural objects. Visitors can either bathing in the sun or enjoying the cool air in the shade under the theaters. The two structural wall holding up the two theater boxes became perfect projecting screen for an outdor theater. In Garden Cinemateque, both inside and outside the wall are theaters, whereas the building itself is also a theater of the city.

An open plan with large living spaces is appropriated into a multi-story maisonette to provide occupants with the experience of a suburban home in an urban setting. It is a alternative to gamilies who appreciate outdoor spaces for their families but also desire the convenience of working and shopping in downtown Ottawa. The creation of more outdoor spaces creates an interface between neighbour which foster a sense of trust and helps in building a community atmosphere. A cohesive, connected community, 193 Dalhousie promotes the physical and mental well being of its residents as well as the community at large. Balconies above the courtyard spaces direct natural light inwards add an element of theatricality and emphasize a connection between the outdoor spaces and the residential units.

WRAPPING THE VOID Studio ‘Dinner is Served‘ | Mohhamed Riffai Purpose | Pavilion Location | Ottawa River Bank, Ottawa, Canada
‘Dinner Is Served’ is a venue for every third year student. Nine groups of seven students are required to design and construct pavilions in which dinner is served to vistors. On the bank of Ottawa River, we touch the leaves and bark, sit on the ground and rock, bath in the sun, take our shoes off to feel the nature. The design is an immediate reaction to the nature of the site. Tree becomes the essential definning element creating a canopy. Existing void in the tree is a continuous ever-changing space controlled by the dynamic solid (branches and leaves). Created void is wrapped by the fabric panels which matches the scale and intimacy of the tree as they extend the branches to the ground. A hand-made lighting fixture declare the structure’s focus and enrich the lounge atmosphere of the pavilion. Both the table and the chairs were made from nature ‘leftovers’, such as falling leaves and braches. Food served for the visitors was wrapped by bamboo leaves and hanged from the tree branches.
