CONCEPT UTOPIA Is an imagined place or state of things in which everything is perfect. Aiming for this final goal is what inspire design. Human nature, social reality and world history are complex and complicated. Are we able to imagine ourselves living in these worlds? What has been reflected today is the quality of a face-to-face conversation are on the slide. Which inspired this project to create an ideal and unique experiences for customers.

Design Problem Analysis In order to create a bond between the space and customer, effective communication must be establish. The world we live in today has been digitalized and this enormous amount of information can be access basically anywhere with a smartphone and the information will be update everyday through all kinds of applications. To get the customer to interact with the space is not to take their phone away, it is to give them the right information to access. the first step is to digitalized the space into oganized information that is able to update everyday then the restaurant will have its persent both digitally and physically. Next is to creat e ways to connect both persents.
15
a new way of healthy dining Redefine Farm to Table The selling point of all farm to table restaurants is the freshness of the raw materials, and customer love to know where those produce came from. So why not bring the farm to the restaurant, a selfeffcient indoor growhouse divided into units that can be monitor and managed on smartphones. Connecting the their virual life with the restaurant by applying this technology into restaurant’s ordering system, and the produce market check out system. It will strengthen the idea of farm to table also deeper bonds between restuarant and customer.

CONCEPT SUNSET symbolized the end of everyday’s work, In Japan fishmans always has romantic relationship with Ocean, proud for being a man of the sea. Sunset is the most beautiful mount in their romantic relationship, the concept transformed into materials bring the solitude of a sunset at sea, and the ocean dark sapphire to a foreign land across sea.

Level Two Bar
the return after harvest The Most Beautiful Moment Each material represents one element in the scene, the dark stone tile floor combine with drift wood symbolize the wave and the lifes beneath. Above that are the orange table tops, window treatment, and the center suspended ceiling symbolize the burning sunset above the ocean horizon. To emphasize the identity of fisherman, I added the suspended hemp rope fish net feature above the barqutte sections. The original BOUSOU FISHMAN restaurant in Japan give customer an strong organic feeling promoting the freshness of their source by making the interior looks like the ship cabin, this characteristic were kept in this project.

Existing Building Information Ground Level: The original open space planning does not met the requirements of the new user. The Yellow area will become the main focuse of the ground level design, the existing function of the area are the kitchen and living room, it gives good amount of squrea footage to redesign. The Red area indicates the walls that will be removed for the new space plan. After that it will create a wider enterance, also allows the natural light form the westside to enter the space. It is not only for enery efficiency, but also for a healthier living environment. The Existing material’s pattern and color are random and outdated.
Second Level: The scond level’s space has many issues, caused by the large amount of closed space and doors, and other comes with it, such as poor air circulation, lack of natural light at center area. The three private spaces at the Eastside means the door were not always open, the air comes in from the westside and across the hallway than stop at the yellow area. The new user of the space has specific requirements, in order to achieve that most of the walls should be demolish.
Third Level: This level has the same layout of second level, and share the same problem. The existing skylight could be more effective without the walls around them. Both second and third level has no shading solution at the westside, the heat from the hot summer sun radiate through the single paint glass window, it is certainly not a place to be during the day.
43
CONCEPT REVEAL the concept was developed in the process of programming, after square footage assessment, many custom build in furnitures and fixtures were placed into the project, as those hidden features like kitchen, storages, and furnitures interact with users they are revealing themself. Those elements not only maximized the function but also designed to be a playful part of the project.

living dining bedroom in one Custom furniture The clients on Level 3 are the Maria & Gino couple, the space will not only be their home also the office for four more employees working Maria. The space were divided into East and West wing, the office was placed in the center of West wing along with one grest bedroom and master bedroom since those private spaces are mostly function at night after work. The East wing was programed for public activities both accessable for family and employees. The main challenge here are the conflect between accessability and the privacy for another guest room, and a 12 people dining room was also required. The solution here a build in guestroom underneath the center seating area at East wing, this custom piece function as the rest area for employees, a guest bedroom, also a extended seating for dining.

CONCEPT OHLONE REVIVAL On this very land the Ohlone indians were able to maintian the balance and flourish for over 4000 years, what could be more inspiring than knowing once in the history mankind were not conquering nature, but very much a part of the nature. By bring back the elements from Ohlone cluture to the interior of the National Geographic HQ is to help the public to see beyond their limits, and taking that inspiration into their life along with the name of National Geographic.

honoring & learning from our origins Ohlone Way of Life The goal fo the National Geographic’s existence is to inspire people to care about the planet, the mother who nurish all being in this galaxy, but the socall evolution today are failing to even maintain the balance of nature. Some have ever stated that human race are heading nowhere but selfdestruction. The Presidio presented itself in one unified style reflecting the Spanish Period from the Architectural style and historical relic, undoubtedly it is a Classic and beautiful view, but U.S today especially California are standing at the frontline of the battle against Environmental crisis, and speaking of sustainability the Ohlone Indians earn the spotlight in the history of Persidio.
