To whom it may concern: As the principal architect and director of JYCArchitect & DCDA associates, I fully recommend Miss Hsuan-Ya Kao as one of the appreciated candidates to work in your company. Kao had been working in our office for nearly 3 years. During her tenure at JYCA, she was fully responsible for several key projects, among them; the M.Y. BapLst Church and Hotel Mapp were the most significant in our office. Hotel Mapp was recently granted the FiOh Taichung Urban Design Award which is a great honor for both Kao and JYCA. Kao is an experienced designer as well as a thoughRul creator. Her parLcular interest in Urban Design enables her to design from a broader perspecLve of the built environment. Kao's design interest is not limited to architecture; she can also tackle on assignment such as environmental graphics and deliver it with excellent outcome such as in the case for Hotel Mapp. Aside from the daily work in the office, Kao would aTend lectures and workshops that she felt would help her grow both professionally and academically. Kao was responsible for communicaLng with professional media internaLonally for her wriTen and spoken English was fluent and capable of accomplishing the jobs. I am pleased to verify that Hsuan-Ya Kao is a potenLal candidate for the company she is applying and I strongly believe that she will fulfill all the requirements of the posiLon successfully. If there is any quesLon, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely yours,
Jing-Yao Chang Principal, JYCArchitect + DCDA associates

A M E TA- FI E L D
The Coexisting Groundscape in Between How could public spaces tell us about the city? How does public space take part in our thoughts and affect behaviors? What makes the groundscape? What embodies its essence? And what will people perceive when lowering their gazes? I argue the process of making groundscape is not only constructing a horizontal layer of urban tissue but also closely intertwining with the flow of knowledge, searching for meaning and identity. Through transforming an unbuilt plot into a public space where the 1
groundscape becomes a collective stage to hold different social possibilities and arouse the public consciousness, the thought behind this project is to understand the generation of things as an episode of the whole. Considering the episode as a process that performs urban life and bring inhabitants together, whenever a spatial intervention happens, the groundscape could provide a soft background for both human and nonhuman activities which grow with the city.
The project is divided into two stages. The first is the manual of public paving which does not only provide general principles and examples but also seeks to facilitate the execution phase of work and achieve a more flexible system. The second is the project itself which is meant to be a model for future interventions that give guidelines on how to enrich the type of public spaces and characterize the community through the medium of groundscape, rather than an architectural volume.

The following paragraphs will use brick as an example to explain different surface treatments.
ADDITIONAL SURFACE TREATMENT
STRUCTURING PROCESS
The secondary finishing step makes various surface finishes possible. The firing process is one of the methods to give bricks color and texture, the type of raw clay or the firing environment can affect the surface color. Besides, the pattern can be made by hands or rollers while bricks are still damp. Extra applied color by spray process is another option.
When shaping the bricks, the moulds have to be moistened beforehand with water, sand, or oil. These properties of the brick surface created by moulding processes are known as water-struck bricks, sandstruck bricks, and hand-struck bricks which produce specific effects, either smooth or rough.

The project attempts to achieve the same result with minor intervention and less building materials. If the large scale development is not necessary, how could we, as architects contribute our specialism to the built environment? I proposed a task of architects that follows the sequences begin from the raw materials into the becoming of something in order to know the actual process in between, as well as the cognitive experiences incorporated in it.
The design intervention goes on simultaneously with the potential scenarios for locals. The human behavior starts to diversify, from simply passing by to staying on, feeling, even exploring the ordinar y neighborhood with a non-frontal way of looking. It is the dynamism of groundscape that creates encounters between different groups. The construction process acts as a performance that is perceived based on observing the fragmentary work and reconnecting people to the urban context

and social value. Capturing the matter of temporality which is hard to be perceived from only one vantage point, (Ingold, 2014) this material-based narrative concretely culminates in an atmosphere that is quite distinct from the original, finding alternatives of altering the part of the existing ground surface. We can thereafter understand cultural, social, and technical relations through this composite picture with assorted textures which transcends our received knowledge about function and aesthetics.

Living and Eating Experience at Yongkang Street Preface According to Zhou Basic Annals of The Grand Scribe's Records, King Wen of Zhou established a benevolent government which caused many vassals to pay the visit. Once, vassals of kingdom Yu and Kingdom Jui came to call on King of Zhou because of the land dispute. When they saw people of Zhou yielded their field ridges to neighbors and respected the elderly, they were greatly inspired and reconciled immediately. In the modern days, tourist industry has become too superficial due to the overly package. 11
Motivation I have been interested in the concept of 'local living + tourism = hostel', which brings me in-depth travel experiences. This life-sharing experience happens to the dining area in the hostel which is also an interacting space of multiple purposes. Starting from the idea of building a country of glory and manners for tourist purpose, the travel experiences should include the close observations to the local culture and life. For tourists, it is the travel that participates in the local life, while for local residents, the issue lies
on how reciprocal learning of life-sharing experience could be created. Yongkang Street Eating culture as one of the most important tourist attractions, plus the typical historical residential area in Taipei. [Commercial] Possessing highly-dense tourist resources, it is famous for gourmet food, cultural atmosphere, which made it one of the most popular commercial districts. Extremely high rent on the ground floor, while the quiet lanes and alleys with houses are replaced by commercial shops.
[Residential] In the past, the local residents actively fought for mutual benefits actively and developed strong civic consciousness. Due to the issues of Building Bulk Control and Urban Renewal, most of the aged four or fivestory apartments are purchased by the construction companies and the housing prices have gone high up. [Design Site] A few aged apartments and the temporary park of irregular shape. The surrounding areas have gradually occupied by high-rise buildings.
Problems [Architecture] - Commercial use on the ground floor caused the add-on fences and extra entrance of residential units block the opportunities for interaction. - Covering the old texture with the new one in a single way. The modular structures are imposed on every new building, which causes fractures between urban tissue and living units. - There is no shared space between units in old apartments, while public and private spaces in the mansions are
strictly separated. The public facilities have become tricks for earning more profits. - Standardized floor plan of threebedroom units takes no account of the interface between units. [Urbanism] - The urban design without flexibility. - Differences between tourist demand and resident demand. - Disappearing culture due to overlap of history.

Public and private areas extremely separated. Luxury mansions emerged due to the soaring land price.
The original Japanese officers’ residences became teaching staffs’ residences; 4 or 5-story apartments were built; 6-story apartments with elevators emerged; typical Taipei streets of the early period established.

Research Questions - What is the ideal value of tourism in Yongkang Street? How could it be shared, learned, and interacted through architectural instruments? - Coming up with the concept of spacesharing system, and regards spatial inter vention as communication of multiple groups. - Eating space = share + interactive space. How to embody the idea of reciprocal learning on architectural design? solid and void spaces, reserving the void space for activities to happen.
3F PL AN
Strategy - Void space: Reverse the placing order of solid and void spaces, reserving the void space for activities to happen. Courtyard as a centrality space, a life-sharing space. - Openness with layers and rhythm: The line of view extends beyond the site. The furniture design also influences the level of sharing. - Free-flowing space: The horizontal character of the floor slab and table could break the boundary and shift the programs naturally. - Street experience: Introduce 2-3.5m span width to extend the street to interiors.
Proposition - Introduce public realm into private sphere. - Embrace the constraints. - Work on the existing or temporary spaces - Facilitate two-way communication.

While the socialism moving towards the communism, the architect tried to get rid of people’s loneliness of living in the cities through building the communities duplicated from the villages. He designed a 6-story apartment, putting all of the functional needs independently into another space and completely collectivizing residents’ life.

At the early stage in Taiwan, living space in the military communities was very limited, and in most of the houses dwelled 3 generations. When the guests visited during the holidays, the space was definitely not enough, so the living space was gradually expanded outwards.

“The public” and “the private” are two opposite concepts. The earliest binary of “public and private” existed in the Greek polis. The ancient Greeks treated the polis as the area for the citizen’s free activities, while the household the area built on the blood relationship. There are distinctive differences between these two life styles.

Public sphere is not a fixed, reachable entity, but a space constituted of people’s interactions. It does not exist in the plaza, stage, legislative council, or street, but a presentation of people’s gathering place. When people get out of the household or private life and start to interact with each other about mutually concerned events, public sphere is created.

Living programs cannot be confined to only one volume. Breaking the boundary of the walls, living activities such as chatting, dining, and laundering exist in the alleys. Under this pattern, the territoriality is ambiguous; people seem to live in a vast environment rather than belong to one building.

Traditional Taiwanese Outdoors Opera Several main streets around Old Westjing (West side of Taipei) were of good positions and came as ideal spots for building up the stage. Moreover, even the audience was not amateurs; they could hum along when some familiar stories were performed.

How to extend the public engagement of outdoors opera to daily life? What is more important than watching the play? There are many ways to participate in the public realm: the senses of hearing, smell, sight, and touch. This open-ended public realm is not forced or passive, but a layered public life with preferences and choices.
cosmopolitan city of Taipei, this kind of rural pleasure is no longer existed.
From the childhood, people in Westjing probably had been familiar with the outdoors opera; either in front of temples or by the riverbanks, as long as the stage was set up, people would gather around immediately. “A simple stool is the honorable seat.” People of that age were warm-hearted; simplicity made the great happiness. “Look how passionate Monka people are. Several hundreds of chairs are not enough. Never mind, it is faster to bring more from home.”

T HE CO U N TE R P U B L I C N E T WO RK We investigated the destroyed synagogues in Leopostadt. ‘ The dialectic of openness and exclusion implied in sacred space is thus one of the most ancient manifestations of the political.’ (Pier Vittorio Aureli, 2013) A traditional synagogue is a place of worship. In addition to housing a sanctuary for services, it also serves as the center point of a Jewish community. Nowadays, the conflict and the sense of 25
insecurity result in hidden synagogues. By introducing the space operative principles derived from the archetype of synagogue which embodies the act of ritualization, this project proposes an urban network which supports the collective resistance to the definite public sphere, while rethinking how to mediate different groups of the community. It becomes a sanctuary for gatherings, hidden but accessible, finite but adaptive.

(Left) In tourism season, it is our guide books. By adding new functions in the original axis of the religions, the symbolism of the axis can be more practical to activate the old urban area which is forgotten by people. In order to break the old parallel barriers to the existing market in new urban areas, we plan new roads linking to the original school district and the polo ground, temples and religious center of the old urban area.Let the old and new cultural activities can be more closely. The job of tour guide combines with the education, so that local students can understand much more deeper for their history and culture. Order line: buddhism cinema → shopping street → ceremony → art village → out door gallery → handicraft studio → top floor space → palace → monastery → cafe → traditional market (Right) The liberation of art in non-tourism season The tourists leave and the residents can fully engage in religious activities and art industries. Re-use the free spaces and re-organize the centeral area of Leh is good for the better growth of the culture and economy in the non-tourism season.
A lot of people are exercising on the polo ground, very bustling.
Starting from the hostel. There are a scattering of shops opened. Not many tourists in November.
Meeting friends for a rest at the cinema in the temple. Life belonging to the residents in Leh has finally come back.
There are many festivals in winter and need to make some purchases at old street.

We image Leh as a big tree. Roots represent old town (history), stalks represent the main market street, branches represent the radial city plan, and leaves represent the developing guest houses. Because of the nutrition (culture, scenic spots, festivals) provided from old town letting leaves keep growing up during the high season. However, we found the issues of nutrient deficiency during the low season. The strategy tries to reverse the timescape by using the outward branches to transport new
nutrition back to roots (old town). We developed a unique tourist system which applies to both locals and tourists while weakening the urban planning centered on religion. Attempting to revitalizing their art handicraft development to build a self-sufficiency community. It is a complete network for the entire year, providing travel routes in the high season. Instead of a physical route, the visual and spiritual axis embodies the real local life in low season.

Conclusion Refresh the city by the old and new relationships of Leh, we develop a unique tourist system here. This system both applies to local residents and outsiders, whether their experiences are long (residents) or short (outsiders). In addition, we try to weaken the religious center of the original pattern (radial center), no matter in tourism season or non-tourism season it will be a complete network system. Each little point can interact with another points. During the tourism season, we try to create a complete navigation routes and a series of tourist routes. In the un-tourism season, there is no actual route, but a visual, spiritual axis of life.
I am going to be busy. Winter is just starting. The temperature is dropping; more and more people come out to enjoy the sunshine.
Pray at the ancient temple on the mountain, hoping for a smooth worshiping rite.

M.Y. Village Baptist Church has a small cowngregation located right next to Shuinan redevelopment zone. First floor houses the auxiliary space, second and third floor are the main auditorium and its mezzanine seating area. The fourth floor is the pastor's residence. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;A light for the Gentiles' serves as the concept beyond the spatial design of the church. The site is at the intersection with west and south facing that exposes to plenty of sun lights.
The west facade is mainly solid with punched windows and slanted walls to bring in indirect lights through colored glass on each opening. Thus, the main auditorium is immersed in an aura similar to that of the chapel in Ronchamp by Le Corbusier. Behind the south facade is the main stairs leading to the auditorium above, where a two-story vertical colored glazing and a skylight welcomes the morning sun as the worshipers ascending to their hall of faith and happiness.

This 21-room hotel was designed mainly for backpackers. The unusually wide street frontage of this small site allows for a broad, welcoming facade. The mapping of a travelerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s journey through a city is the main theme of the hotel. City maps are transformed into mosaic wall and ceiling murals to represent the main theme, while the other areas are kept simple. The effect is to offer travelers a bright and relaxing stopping point.
The ground level houses the main lobby where a grand stairway leads to the restaurant on the second floor and to the upper guest room floors via an elevator. An outdoor stair way also reaches the restaurant directly for non-guest customers. Typical guest room floors are from third to fifth levels and the sixth and seventh levels are stepped up to create terraces for bigger units. In the basement is a multi-functional space for meetings and lectures.

R E - G A RTO RY Gartory = Garden + Factory. Originally used as a domestic factory, ReGartory seeks the maximum influence of micro buildings. It is located as a node on Taichung Green Parkway. We imagined how this corner building would evolve into a community living room. The ground floor composed of two shops and an open space with street furniture reused from the previous steel which sends a welcome message to the community. A stairway reaches the 41
multi-function space on the first floor, while a path with an atrium to another shop. On the second floor is a stair seating creates flexibility for a variety of uses: lectures, exhibitions, and events. Concerning the narrow width of the site, the facade is simply a layer of corrugated sheet. The greenery filled up the void spaces, rendering a second skin to the building. The dynamic boundary between artificial and natural leaves uncertainties for unexpected scenarios to happen.

Unlearning the City Our research deals with the leftover / residue / loose / semi-defined / undefined / transitional / in-between / threshold / informal spaces that are of an abundance across the city of Sarajevo. We are interested in the temporal conditions of these spaces that both host and facilitate a fluid â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;publicnessâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, unconstrained by the politics and regulations that have instigated the diminishment of formal public space in the late capitalist city today. These spaces are characterized by processes of the urban environment that have taken place naturally: plant growth and animal inhabitation, spontaneous social interactions, informal exchanges, urban agriculture, movement through and moments of reflection. All of these aspects cohabit and oscillate together, in turn creating spaces that are created / articulated by public life instead of controlled / curated / designed for public life. We believe that space that accumulates in this way is what can be defined as place in the city.

Dynamic Corridors
Large Scale The existing greenbelt located on site’s west side is an urban space for citizens’ leisure activities.
Medium Scale Extending trees into coutyard. The first tree at entrance gives a hint guiding people to the greenway.
Small Scale Extending trees of courtyard into void spaces between living 6-8units in order to increase interpersonal interactions. The pictured situation: Mr. Wu who lives in upper story waters the tree regularly, somehow he gets sick suddenly. Miss Chen who lives lower story is aware of the withered tree, and she might think: “ Is there something wrong with Mr. wu? ”

Prototype B. Shopping Street This project begins with the analysis of Schroder House designed by Gerrit Rietveld. Applying with the principles, it was transformed into a prototype which included a green core (void) between two units, and the C B flexible spatial arrangement within. The living units are partitioned into two areas (working and sleeping) using a moveable wall except for a separate bathroom. Furthermore, there is a semi-outdoor open space with a tree and wood deck as the extension of the interior where residents can acquaint with each other.

Proposal Developing the prototype into a complex consisted of soho’s housing at upper floors and public programs for citizens at lower floors. There are dynamic corridors with stairs continuously on the side of building that D. Skybridge Greens face the courtyard which combines allwith the life-shared spaces around the floor. In addition to the green among units, a series of big trees placed on plaza at ground floor also responds the urban greenbelt located on its west side. This project is an attempt to propose the “green” as catalysts which increase interpersonal interactions and communications.
