As an architectural typology, art galleries can take many forms. One universal constant, however, is the prevalence of the concept of travel. The gallery is one of the few buildings that allows the public to roam freely at any speed and in any direction. An art gallery can be described as a series of experiences through a continuum of various spaces; a place where you can experience a range of emotions and possibly learn something along the way. The project aims to design a dedicated peripheral, controversial and new art pioneer gallery for Liverpool, providing them with spaces for small and large art. Compared with Liverpool's style of small galleries, this project is larger in scale, and while placing more artworks, it can also provide visitors with a more interesting and rich viewing experience.

Introduction

Huadong [East China] is one of the most important economic regions along the coast of China, with abundant natural resources, comfortable climate, and dense population.

In the past 20 years, the entire Yangtze River Delta region has formed an unprecedented urbanization development process by taking advantage of the economic dividends radiated by Shanghai. To this day, East China, as one of the most important urban settlements in China, is still seeking new development opportunities.

In the current development of urbanization, East China has differentiated different urban functions based on different geographical conditions and resource allocation. The differentiation within the region gradually becomes significant. At the same time, the neglect of green environment caused by only focusing on indicators in the process of urbanization will restrict future urban development. At the same time, due to the influx of migrant workers from other provinces, reasonable living space has also become an urgent demand.

Growth Cycle Axis

Choice of location location analysis:

- topography

- vegetation distribution

- insolation

- green field

- city idenity and function

- local population

Relationship with the existing city center

- serve as a secondary city center topography location vegetation distribution

- the cornerstone of green expansion

Close cooperation with the community and people

Community attributes are a very important part, as many residents as possible participate in the design of functions

Material language and selection

Material and selection

Under the premise of a friendly environment, try to find and use local materials to avoid homogeneity

MAIN PURPOSE

The purpose of the project is to embed and use the building to restore the green in the process of urbanization, so that the green plants can really play a role in forming the self-circulation of the urban environment As the cornerstone of the green expansion, improve the ecological appearance and environmental system of the city. In the current process of urban expansion, it is part of the secondary urban center to share the pressure of the core urban area. When the future urban expansion tends to be saturated, as a peripheral urban agglomeration, it surrounds the core urban area to improve the environmental problems caused by urbanization and industrialization.

OASIS is a community model that will grow by itself, providing super city residents with a collective housing method.It provides residents with ample space for activities and is accompanied by greenery to better feel the nature. It provides different residential modules for families with different numbers of members, meeting the demands of families from single to three generations living in one house.The agricultural land around the building can guarantee self-sufficiency. With the increase of residents, the oasis can also continue to rise. When the urbanization process progresses to the area where the OASIS is located, it is also the time for the oasis to expand outward and transform the land and environment.

The structure of the OASIS is composed of units, and the living space in the units comes from simple modluar elements.Modules can make the building more efficient to be built, and leave a high possibility for expansion in the future.This is the embodiment of the OASIS itself can grow and adapt.

Today’s super cities in the Yangtze River Delta are expanding rapidly. But how to maintain the sustainable development of a city under limited land resources after 20-30 years is the question that OASIS tries to answer. This plan is not limited to Eastern China, but can also provide ideas for all future cities that fall into development constraints

Population Resdential

Units Structure

Using modules

The basic modules are used to deduced the unit, and the repetitive structure is used to improve the construction efficiency

On-site construction

Use prefabricated components to complete on-site assembly, which is conducive to mass production

Flower stand on building and sowing of seeds

Although the growth cycle cannot be skipped, the space for future plant growth will be pre-designed during construction

Outward expansion centered on the building

The natural environment of the local community will develop in an efficient direction under the action of the building, which is different from the green space in the city, which only pursues technical indicators

Use agricultural land to become selfsufficient

When the land around the building takes shape, the local community has the opportunity to use the land for selfsufficiency. This is also a remedy and replacement plan after the reduction of cultivated land in the process of urbanization

Reconstruction of used land

When the city expands to the periphery, the surrounding settlements can use the green expansion to invade the used urban land and carry out transformation

A sustainable urban form

Land Usage Environment

Basic Moudle Generation

Urbanization Industrialization

When the city expands to the periphery, the surrounding settlements can use the green expansion to invade the used urban land and carry out transformation

Ecological space inside the building

After a period of growth, the plants planted in the building will gradually form its own ecological ring. The local community can have a vertical forest system

The formation of resident communities

The combination of different family units brings community relations while also retaining personal space for people. Different types of residential units can meet the demands of various families

Each building is equivalent to a syringe, and they inject green expansion into the land outside the city. Use its own radiation effects to change the environmental problems caused by urbanization. At the same time, it solves the housing problem of overpopulation in big cities. And guide the future development of the city like a vertical direction. Brings impetus to the sustainable development of the city
