01 OSU FOREST LEARNING CENTER 奧勒岡州立大學森林學系教學樓
“PURITY OF WOODS” 2021
This project takes on the design of Forest Education Center for Oregon State University’s College of Forestry in their McDonald-Dunn Forest. The design idea is to express the beautiful timber structure using pure and simple building form and allow the timber structure to be the main feature of the design.
Oregon State University (OSU) owns 15,000 acres of research forest for learning, study, and work. Out of the eight research forests, the McDonald-Dunn forest hosts the site for the proposed Forest Education Center. Peavy Arboretum currently serves as the gateway to this forest.

The site is located within the McDonald-Dunn forest. The site is mostly shaded by the tree canopies. In the northwest, the weather is mostly aloudy and gloomy during winter time. Therefore, daylighting becomes an important element for the design.

The design intentions of this project is to have a pure and clean form and let the beutiful timber structure to be the main feature of the building. The lower floor is more for educational use. The upper floor is for exhibiting and gathering, thus, it is more open. For connecting the upper and the lower floors there are light wells that allow users to have visual connections, as well as daylight.

Underfloor air distribution (UFAD) is a method of delivering space conditioning which is increasingly being considered as a serious alternative to conventional ceiling-based air distribution systems.

Sustainable Design The building uses biomass boiler to provide the heating. It is also considered a carbon-neutral form of energy because the same amount of carbon dioxide that is released by the burning process is later re-absorbed by growing plants. Not only it supplies us with energy, but it also helps with the disposal of wood and other materials’ waste on the site. The building uses natural lighting during the day to reduse the energy use. There are skylight windows and light wells to help bring the sunlight down to the ground floor. Also, there are bioretention gardens around the building to help capture and infiltrate stormwater runoff.

02 RESIDENTIAL HOUSE REMODEL 比弗頓住宅室內裝潢
“PEACE OF MIND” 2021 Things that make people feel heartwarming are usually the simple things in life. Same thing can be applied to a home design as well. People long for a place they can return to that feels warm and simple which allows them to release all the stress they have from the outside. A house designed with natural wood material and warm colors helps creating a relaxing and intimate experience for the owner.

“LIVING ROOM”
Originally, the living room space was a really open space that made the space feel plain and undifferentiated. To solve the problem, I designed a screen combined with a cabinet to define the entrance. Instead of entering right into the living room from the front door, the owner sees the cabinet. And, the wooden screen gradually reveals the view of the living room.
“FAMILY ROOM”
Family room is located at one end of the house and was the space for the owner to store items that were not often used. Giving the space a purpose for people to be in helps change the way people use the space. Cabinets with seating area was added for the owner to hang out or read books. The cabinets also help with organizing the space and storing things in a more orderly way.
“BATHROOM”
The bathrooms of house are small. Some of the problems that I encountered were limited storage space and the lack of daylight due to its location. The owner wanted to have more space to store items. Also, change the interior design to a clean modern style.

03 RESIDENTIAL HOUSE RENOVATION 深坑老宅室內裝潢
“Irregular” 2021 This project is to renovate the house that had been rented for 15 years. The interior was old and many places were damaged. This time, the owner wants the house to feel lively. Therefore, brighter colors are used for the living room to add a sense of happiness and warmness.
The mechanical routing system was out of date. Therefore, a rerouting of the mechanical tubes was required. The original kitchen area seemed really tiny. To solve this problem, I remove the door between the living room and the kitchen to free up the space that was taken up for the door to swing which helps making the space seem more spacious. The owner loves having plants in the house. Using wood material on the furnitures helps making the space warmer and softer. There are aslo some color pops such as the pillows, the pendant lighting, and the one wall painted in bule which make the space more lively and energetic. Plan

04 BOSTON WELLNESS CENTER “The Rotated Triangle” 2019
DeFilippo Wellness Center is located in the North End which is also known as “Little Italy '' section of Boston. The North End neighborhood is small but highly concentrated with just over 10,000 residents. The site is located at the corner where the two streets cross; thus the shape of the site is a trangle dealing with steep slope. Rotating the triangle creates these offset spaces that became community spaces.

ROTATION OF TRIANGLES
DeFilippo Wellness Center provides several programs that help users thrive in their environ- ments by helping them deal with stress, understand proper exercise for their bodies, giving them a place to relax t. I also want to use this project to not only bring people within the neighborhood together, but also strengthen the connection within the neighborhood. DeFilippo Wellness Center has a wide welcoming staircase and access to every floor from the outside. Users can move within the building easily. The central atrium keeps the openness and the greenness of the original park and allows sunlight to come into the building. The entire center also has a strong visual connection between each level which makes it easier for the users to understand their current location.
04 Restaurant Renovation “Sobremesa” 2020
The sobremesa is a Spanish tradition that involves spending time relaxing after a meal and drinks. This project is to renovate an old restaurant in downtown Portland and the goal is to provide a relaxing environment for people to gather or just spend time alone. Sobremesa is a unique tapas-style restaurant featuring food from around the world, encouraging our consumer to explore new traditions and cultures, while supporting local organizations through our philanthropic initiatives ranging from small scale help to global changes.
1st Floor Floor Plan
First floor is an open area with a variety of seating types that accommodate different situation for users. Open kitchen area allows customers to interact with the staffs.
2nd Floor Floor Plan
Second floor has a lower ceiling height (10 ft.) which creates a more compressed and private environment. Thus, there is another bar area for users who want to have their own quiet time.
Cross Section
Longitudinal Section
This project uses many wood textures to create a relaxing atmosphere. The intersecting roof ceiling form above the double height space helps indicate the different zones of seating areas. In this project, many indoor plants are used as space dividers. They not only provide the natural feeling to the restaurant, but also help making the space feel more lively. Use brighter lightings in the areas that have higher ceilings to make them more welcoming. Use dimmer lightings in the areas where the ceilings are lower to provide a sense of intimacy.
