Khlong Toei Community Center The studio focused on improving informal settlements in Khlong Toei, the biggest slum in Thailand. After a site analysis workshop with ETH students and UrbanThink Tank, the direction of the design did not touch only the physical form and/or the contextual aspect, but also the way of realizing the project. Therefore to keep it as feasible as possible, the programs proposed would not only fit in the context but also be sponsored by organizations or companies. The site is an empty plot under a highway, which is cut through by a railway running between and along the highway’s columns. It is located between the city and informal settlement, where people from Khlong Toei would pass on their way to work in the city. The proposed programs are bicycle docking station, study room, television rooms, and toilets. These programs sound simple, but in fact are very sustainable and attractive to the people around the site. Concept of gathering means to shared spaces and utilities, causing decrease electricity consumptions. This will encourage interaction between people living inside and outside Khlong Toei. This would also improve the image of the informal settlements as locals would use bicycle to engage with and enjoy the city. Last but not least, the architectural language is very site specific. The design celebrates the larger than life structure of the city infrastructure. With lighting fixtures hanging from highway structures and frosted glass roofs, the light permeates into the rooms and to the surrounding.

Design Parameter / Program Layout The form is constrained by streets on both side and a railway line, which cut through the middle. The height is kept to only one level, which will allow the light from the highway to spread throughout the projects. The study room and television room are closer and are exposed more to the community street. This should attract the attention of the people passing by as well as sharing the light to the context. The less active programs such as toilet and bicycle rental station are pushed toward the other side.

Deforming
Circulation and Pavement
By creating central space, each programme interacts to establish a dialogue between forms. The bicycle parking is enlarged by extending the wall and filling the space between two columns.
The pavement and ground cover emphasize the project from the surrounding environment. The new path is a grass strip flowing along the railway, so that community members are no longer required to walk on the street. The materials are pebbles and wood pallets found on the site. The lighting fixtures and projector are hung from the highway. This allows the light to spread around the site context and to shine through the frosted glass roof of each unit.

Ninghai Six Senses Restaurants The studio is invited to design a Chinese restaurant and a Western restaurant as a part of Ninghai Six Senses Resorts. Due to the surrounding mountainous landscape of the site, the concept is to create a built environment which blend in with the existing step fields. Avoiding one big roof slab and monumental language, the roof and floor are broken down into steps with curve contour lines. The design celebrates the existing contour line of the site, while naturally approaching the functional aspect of the step. The kitchen situated at the basement level, creating a free floor plan. In terms of space, steps are scattered around the area, maximizing people flow. While the floor steps are meant to be a part of the seating area, the roof steps’ gap allow natural light to the interior space. Glass walls and round columns helps create the impression of floating green roofs. images courtesy of KUU

Professional Works Design produced in KUU follows the studio’s philosophy in creating variation of feeling and activity. The practice utilizes curves to smooth out the space and apply different material to varied the atmosphere. The spaces are then the mean of creating gradient of ambiguity. People are actually the subject that animate and account for the project’s success. In corporate architecture firm (opposite page), Ethan Itthi Poldeenana provided cross-team support, prepared architectural drawings and specifications for residental projects. For medium scale projects, he generated Revit models and familes for architectural draftsmen. jin villa (top), wuyuanlu office (middle), suzhou boutique (bottom) images courtesy of KUU

Flock [i] ng Necklace The wearable is the results of a coding workshop, where students are introduce to the computational territories as well as its aesthetic. With flocking algorithm, which includes separation, alignment and cohesion, the agents flow around the body’s topology, which contain repelling and attracting force in certain location. Then the simulation is capture in a specific moment and exported to the modeling software. The data of the instant are manipulated and exaggerrated showing the different output. Therefore, the designing process and aesthetic are that of computational realm. Here the design explores the agent’s density and velocity in relation to the body’s and 3D printing’s constrain.

Dispersing Vein
The 3D printed facade will blur the boundary between the interior and the exterior by rendering the naturalight into the interior space as well as regulate temperature and noise. Hense the boundary of light, temperature and noise is no longer about switching on and off, but could be adjust at a precise gradient relating to the natural environment. The intelligent material configuration and machanic could be directed by electricity and airpressure. Every building’s facade would be environmentally evaluated and its complexity will result in a nongeneric design. In the next 100 years, solid brick and concrete wall would be something ancient, comparing to multi-functional and structurally and material optimized facade. All of these could be achieved by the high-resolution computional design and the future fabrication technologies.

The proposal composes of 2 strategies, the replacement of the street pavement with greenery and the high-resolution 3D printed facade, which functions at nano level. The aim is to create natural atmosphere for people within a dense city. The interior and exterior share continuity of energy such as light, temperature and noise. Projecting into the next 100 years, a more delicated and complex transportation system should eliminate personal automobiles. In addtion to decreasing population in Japan, this shall cause many streets to be empty. By maintaining the existing park and reveraging part of the street with greenery, the nature will penetrate throughout the Tokyo with low net energy. Government could lend out spaces for people to harvest the vegetables. New type of infrastructure could introduce a water management system that creates a relationship between people and crops.

As Kiyoshi Inoshita believed that parks would no longer be needed if we could realize a future society where critical urban problems including public sanitation and overpopulation were solved by highly developed technologies. DispersingVein projects the future in urban and architectural scale with the natural aspect and pleasent atmosphere for people in Tokyo.

Gracier Tower
typical tower in urban area
The Gracier Tower is an architectural sketch for new tower typology, inspired by tripod structure. Similar to the Eiffel Tower, the ground floor becomes an open and accessible hall. Beside holding the twisting tower’s load, the massive podium’s form softly melt to the context. This creates an elegant and organic form, which blend the tower into both the skyline’s grid and the street’s chaos. Two languages are combined into one, by a dynamic gesture. twist the tower to differ the view
melt the form, to create transition between solid and liquid stage. ground level form engage the context and the public realm the tripod-like maga structure allows large semi-interior public space and circulation

Helsinki Quantum The Next Helsinki Competition is an encounter for Helsinki Guggenheim Museum Competition and it questions the possibility of architecture that derive from the city and its people. With City of Helsinki’s policies concerning global competitiveness, urban sustainability and urban culture, the design should responds rationally, no less than its landmark status. Helsinki Quantum is a bottom-up play of flux and monumentality of architecture. In the beginning, the idea is to have a space where people could freely book, organize and exhibit according to their own needs. This ensure constant human interventions that will keep changing the project’s circulations, programs and proportion. The architecture will act as a flexible platform for those changes. Under the same structure, the temporary spaces merge with permanent programs such as art gallery, design library, and fish market. The design contradicts the different era of architecture in order to achieve its own meaning. The temporary and permanent programs are kept together by monumental colmns, which acts as frameworks. First seen as discrete elements, the columns dynamically unite all the spaces. The ground floor is an open floor plan market and event spaces. On the first floor located an art and design library. The art gallery is on the second, third and fourth floor. Constrasting to its monumental exterior, the porous interior allows the interaction between different programs on different floor. Facing the street are an empty Cartesian grid structure, for citizen’s rotating programs. In the day time, the natural light enters through the east elevation, while at night the interior light emphasize the horinzontality of the building from the inside.

[a]-Panoptes Among many natural phenomenals, dissipative system is to be found in various scale, globally, locally and molecularly. While it embraces the external influences, the systems recalculate and restructure the internal behaviour. There are profound interactions between dynamic and static, global and local, and micro and macro structures. Our research focused on study of dissipative system and how to apply it to architectural and/or design realm. This means that throughout the research process, the system was not only mathematically experimented but also functionally and aesthetically explored. We chose reaction and diffusion as a main algorithm in exploring the dissipative system. As two different chemicals, dU and dV, diffused into shades of colors, we applied this to material and structure distribution. The computation resulted in 21st century patterns, forms and surfaces which could diffuse the natural light. Later, the team achieved the gradient of various patterns and precisely controlled the quality of the light as well as material aggregation. Projecting this experiment into the future of architecture, designers could shape not only the location of the openning but also the light’s quality and quantity.

[a]-Panoptes Stool Reaction Diffusion on Spring Surface
The balance between the material solidity and porosity was created by avoiding the noises. The new forms and pattern mutation happens throughout the stool. Chemical reaction and diffusion generated layer-by-layer extrusion, which its height and material density depend on dU and dV values, the two difference chemicals.
