Inter-Schools Collaboration Project

Location: FengGuangVillage, Wu Han

Design Year: July, 2019

This is a joint-university porject finished in 2019 summer, aims to focus on tackle the out-dated inner town village in mainland China. This project site is located in WuHan, where besides the WuHan University of China. After site visiting, interviews, and model experiment in half month working time, a renew master layout plan was proposed. Apart from demolish the whole town, this project would rather to explore the chance to regenerate the new elements combining with the existed in land spirit.

Site Location

Road condition is poor on safety and hygiene perspertive, and the elevation of the street is quite out of pattern, and mixed-up separate cultures.

Site Analysis

Inner street performs negatively as well because of the messy hanging electrical wires and the irruled parking situation. Landry also existed in some samll corner of the streets.

Weak connections between FENGGUANG Village and the mountain where is a valuable histroical memorial spot.

The Building Blocks within the site is highly densed with each others. light and fresh air are difficult to go inside the centre of the zone, living conditions are unacceptable.

New Master Planning

ShaTin Elderly Day Care Centre

School Based Project

Location: Tai Chung Kiu Road, Sha Tin, Hong Kong

Design Year: May, 2019

Instructor: Dr. Andrea Palmioli

In this project, instead of designing a elderly daycare center, it is better to recognized it is a public sevice project. The targert users are not just the elderly but also the general public. Normally, elderly centre would be mistaken by the public to be a boring and prison-liked building. However, in this project it is designed to open up more and more public spcaes instead of constructing the building form and reconnected the in-and-out side of the elderly centre with the ShaTin district.

In the design, it prvides a lot of vertical opening to lead into more natural light into the building in order to maintain a bright environment for elderly. Moreover, center void design is going to break through the building and let some landscape elements be a part of the project, this responses the mental health issue inside the elderly centre. On the other hand, ideas are proposed on the landscape design and encouraging more different social activities engaged in the site

At the same time, the triangular units are combined through the interception. Spaces with height difference are created, spatial difference enriches the vistor experience.

In tradition, the respectfully object is usually put on a higher place to force people looking up to the object to show their respect.

Education Room is designed to rise some workshops to the public, that may include some topics about the making procedue for the different part of the Dragon.

A underground big black box with 3 storeys height is located for the last session of the exibition. The combination between the high hanging Dragon and the pure atmosphere is building a contrast idea, it also leads people to focus and respect on the only exibit with the action of looking up.

Galleries as the first exibition space is mainly focus to show some photos and describe information to the visitors to give a introduction to the whole exibition.
