SLANTING THRESHOLD Data Center & Museum | Queens, NYC Spring 2020
Digital technology has greatly changed how people live in the past half-century. Not only it provides people with a fresh way to perceive the world, but it also challenges the concepts of reality. As media and data gradually gain their popularity, the invisible information bridges the virtual realm with the reality, and it leads us to think: what is in between? Welcome to a hybrid space where it constantly switches between the physical and the virtual realms. This data center/museum hybridity allows for the possibility of the bests of both worlds. As they collide, a threshold that is both permanent and ephemeral is therefore created, escalating the context to a new level, also offering people a platform to seek the equilibrium.

LIFE IN THE CIRCLE Urban Housing | Moscow Fall 2019
Mega-blocks can be viewed as one of the most significant impacts of 20th century modernist urbanism implementation in dense urban environments. Through operating between the scales of architecture and the city, mega-block is a powerful spatial instrument with implications on social, cultural, and economic aspects of contemporary city development. As cities around the world continue to densify, new strategies of accomodation of urban population are needed: How can we reengage the urban scale through specific design acts? This urban housing renovation project proposed a collective work to transform the current condition of the “Round House” on Dovzhenko Street in Moscow. With the vision of lifestyle in decades, the project embraces the current site condition with the considerations including new lifestyle and social realities, as well as thinks through spatial and social consequences such as urban islands, walled enclaves, and mono-function community.

MANAYUNK COLLEGE Education & Business | Philadelphia, PA Spring 2019
Viewing the site as a ‘Market‘, the project treats the Market as an Agora, a typology where principles of distribution, cooperation, and access prioritize public benefit and oppose private profit maximization. It is also a space where a collective uprising against state and corporate domination can be staged. To address the specificities of Manayunk about the overall dynamics of urban development, the project begins with questioning how can architecture’s entanglement in the system become the power that produces the city? The project is divided into two phases. Phase 1 discusses the conflict between a ‘private education’ involved in ‘sustainable development’. After the students find out that their collage is practicing exactly what they are criticizing and causing gentrification to the neighborhood with a history of evicting the Black Bottom, they perform an uprising to resist this education system. The Market, therefore, becomes a platform and a trigger for alternative modes of ownership that support the neighborhood in resisting the upcoming real-estate speculation.

Artificial Intelligence Art Exchange Museum & Business | Manhattan, NYC Fall 2020
What if the people from the offices will not return? The haunting prospect of an “empty” city in the aftermath of COVID-19 appears like a real possibility. Fears of contagion and the proliferation of non-local communication practices may trigger an irreversible depopulation of business districts worldwide, especially for New York, a global leader in business and finance. However, the unsettling notion of physically intact buildings with no human occupancy may just be the kind of trigger needed for a substantial rethinking of the architecture of the city and our interactions with it, which leading people to ask: what does it take to change the course? The project takes the art market as its context, and wants to dichotomously explore and comment on the seemingly inevitable trend of commodified art by making an analogy of the past and the present. The once extravagant building should be viewed as a performative whole encapsulating the artificial intelligence print shop, the broker’s office, and the storage/gallery where each space has its unique condition but is interconnected with each other, this idea is exploited through a new reading of the interior spatial conditions once present within the original building.

Revit Construction
Residential | Champaign-Urbana, IL Spring 2016
This Revit project is the case study of the 308 E Green St residential building which is located at Champaign, Illinois. The goal for this course is to emphases on the process of project execution form the initiation of design to the completion of construction of commercial, institutional, and other heavy construction building types. Includes comprehensive study of the construction of buildings and their systems, materials and methods, and their implications on building sustainability and design decision-making. CAD and BIM tools and processes are used to develop construction documents for the case study building.
