Abstract
Massive migration is one the most significant phenomena of China’s urbanization. In the thirty years since the “Reform and Open Up” policy began, Guangzhou, as the center of the Pearl River Delta, has experienced significant economic growth and urban expansion and attracted a vast number of migrant laborers. Seen as the product of the rapid urbanization, urban villages accommodate the majority of migrants by providing low-rent housing, but at the same time they cause many social problems. Guangzhou’s general approach to the redevelopment of urban village overlooks the serious issues migrants are facing and their demand of affordable housing. The reconstruction not only disregards the traditional village context but also drives the migrants away. Yangji village presents all characteristics typical of urban villages. It is located near the new center of Guangzhou and is currently being redeveloped. With the aim of improving the migrants’ standard of living and helping them gradually integrate into the city, this thesis proposes a new way to redevelop Yangji village in the urban context of Guangzhou by providing migrants with government-subsided low-rent housing and enhancing the potential for social interactions in the neighborhood. Taking into consideration the overall city development of Guangzhou, the benefits to all its citizens as well as the former village context and its population, the thesis proposes a design for an open community that is a mixture of different populations, functions, natural and historical elements.

Migration Flow of the Year 1995-2000
Official estimates of the migrant population up to the end of 2012 is over 263 million, accounting for 1/6 of China’s population. Due to slow development and lack of job opportunities in the inland area, a large number of migrants have flooded from the undeveloped parts of China such as the provinces of Fujian, Anhui and Guangzhou, into the coastal region, seeking higher economic incomes. In the 30 years since 1979, the urban population of China has increased from 440 million to 622 million, with approximately 340 million attributed to the net migration. “The volume of rural-urban migration in such a short period is likely the largest in human history.”

The village texture obviously distinct itself from the surrounding buildings. The high dense village has no other open space beside the greening area at the river front. However, the narrow alleyways work as public space, encourage social interaction and communication.
The road net work was formed according to the inhabitants of Yangji’s 4 major families: Qin, Yao, Liang and Li. The main streets divide Yangji into four sectors. Along with the development of Guangzhou, the main streets of Yangjii became commercial centers of the area.

The historical buildings in Yangji are mostly temples and ancestral halls distributed evenly in every sectors. Many the historical buildings were also used for services purposes. However, the historical building are still the soul of the village and many newly constructed service buildings are also built around them.
Over 90% of the building in Yangji is housing. “Grow housing”, used to be a life style of many Yangji families. Almost every family rents out part or the whole house for income. The mobility of tenant can reach 15% in the busiest month since Yangji’s major habitants are migrants.

Previous Village Design Proposal Design Proposal
Proposal Community Quality Comparison Diagram Instead of separating the migrants, villagers and citizens, the thesis creates a community that accommodates all population. Besides the basic social service infrastructure, the mixed programs provides migrants necessary social assistance, reeducation, training, recreation and day-care, kindergarten as well as primary school for migrant children. The community also includes retail and workshop units that provide entrepreneurial and working opportunities. Furthermore, the residential towers are connected with bridges with recreational functions and the communal functions will greatly increase social communications.

The site located at Cambridge, Ontario at the cross of Water and Bruce street across from the Grand River. The design is comprehensive that include from schematic to construction details with careful consideration of technical and sustainable concerns. The design is a community center for handicap disability people around the site. Beside basic rehabilitation programs, the design also provides practicing tail and act as community center. The design opens up the site to creating a garden in the area that is accessible from every side of the site with no impediment. The landscape act an important role of the design that it extends the space and form several continuous in/out-door activity spaces. Roof gardens are placed along with the practice ramp in different sectors giving a various spacial experiences. From the aspect of sustainability, the design minimizes the building volume and reduces the energy lost by using shear walls along south and east directions. By separating programs into several blocks help to achieve a more efficient energy use. Moreover, the curtain-wall can be fully opened to increase natural ventilation and at the same time for more open spaces in the summer time.

Large Urban Building Design
The site located at downtown Toronto right next to the Moss Park. The project offer a survey of evolving approaches to urban design. This project gives a chance to develop different understanding of downtown Toronto urban fabric, what influences would it bring by one building to the site and its surroundings. This program is focus on: 1. City fabric, the complex relationship of interdependently systems that make up the contemporary city. 2. Craft of complex buildings. The program asks for fluent in functional programs and building elements - cores and circulation, building services and structures systems. 3. Environmental sustainability. This provides a crucial technical focus. Complex Urban Building Design

Adjacent to Nanhai, Hongkong and Macaw, Guangzhou is seen as the south gate of China. Guangzhou Urban Development Archives is a organization of managing and preserving archives of urban development documents, as well as center of science study researches. Located at the south part of Baiyun district, the site of the design is the key passageway along new Guangzhou airport and the city center.

Low-carbon economy has attracted attention in the world. The site of the competition located in the Xixi Wetland in Hangzhou, China, which has been included in the list of important wetlands. Xixi wetland is located in an area with hot summers and cold winters, and belongs to the rare category of secondary wetland system. The land use of this program is 6,000 M2, permanent construction area 2,800 M2, expansible temporary construction area 800 M2.This program is to build a green architectural science and technology base, with the purpose to promote low-carbon technology, and advocate low-carbon economy, low-carbon utilization of energy as well as a low-carbon life. The ultimate goal is to push forward the low-carbon city construction. LC Since, Technology & Life Pavilion Design Site: Xixi Wetland, Hangzhou, China Zhuoyi Zhang 2011

B. Shadow Analysis on Winter Solstice Day The architecture surfaces besides the north area can recessives sufficient sun light in the winters.
Heat Radiation Analysis
A. Heat Radiation on Random Day The south-east side of the building mass receive considerably low solar radiation. The building mass is self-shadowed on reducing surface heat.
A. Building footprint radiation analysis The areas closer to the building mass receives less solar radiation. Such structure is able to reduce solar radiation of the lower level of the building.

Thunder Bay Consolidated Courthouse
This 200,000 ft2, state-of-the-art facility brings two existing courthouses – the Superior Court of Justice and the Ontario Court of Justice – into one building in downtown Thunder Bay and will include space for a number of services, including the Victim/Witness Assistance Program and Legal Aid Ontario. The facility’s design is also sensitive to the cultural aspects of the region and houses the Province’s first Aboriginal Settlement Conference Suite, specifically designed to respond to the needs of the region’s Aboriginal population. The facility is a six-story building, with one level of parking below grade and an enclosed mechanical penthouse on the seventh level. It accommodates an estimated 250 personnel in 15 courtrooms and 4 conference/settlement rooms. The courthouse accommodates a maximum of 72 persons in custody in a day-use holding area at one time. This increases the total number of courtrooms available, and provides better public access and security. The project achieved Substantial Completion in February 2014.
