ARCHITECTURE MANIFESTO
We should strive for an architecture that conveys its meaning with such force that it doesn’t even require physical realization. It may only exist in the realm of imagery, as drawing, photo, or movie, but it is capable of delivering more authentic spatial experience than any built form. Its function should be to tell a story about its social and cultural context. Our world is digitalizing. At the same time, our perception of space is demanding more on the emotionality and ethereality rather than rationalism and realism. Architecture should response to such transition. Architecture has long been limited by the drive to realize its visions in the physical world. In this inveterate norm, diagrams exist only as the tools of zoning and circulation; plans and sections are relegated to the demands of construction documents, and renderings are forced to be simulations of material quality. We should liberate architecture from the built environment. Architecture is everything spatially evocative. We should consider diagrams as scenarios of tactics instead of descriptors of strategy. We should treat plans and sections as grand set pieces in the procession of story instead of virtual space generators. We should emphasize atmosphere and mood in our renderings, not material particularities. If building construction is just one mode of architectural representation, then we must absorb knowledge from all disciplines and proficiency in all skills so that we have the flexibility to express our work in a multitude of ways. By doing so, architecture is allowed to be blurry and not specific, descriptive instead of prescriptive, fluid instead of determined, distinctive instead of generic. Through this, architecture becomes desirable.

AUD FUTURE CAMPUS This studio is directed by the AUD Dean Hitoshi and considered as a proposal incubator for the future department building which will be built in the coming future. Different from other academic project, this studio is based on pragmatic issus and conditions, with programing considered as the central design driven. The first half of the project is only focusing on programing, not only in terms of adjacencies, but also with considering programmatic innovation. This proposal is aimming at marrying academic with practices by bring in a leasing/corworking office as incubators to the school environment. Under such condition, students are no longer study architecture in vacumn areas, at the same time design entrepreneur could find their demanding physical and intellectual resources from the school. 10

INFORMALITY The word informality in this project means unprescripted activities and creativity in programing. Driven under a real project, the studio focus more on program and circulations rather than any other issues. The first 5 weeks program study set down the tone of the design phase. Informality is interpreted as a casulity between interior and exterior in this project. In a way the roof terrace is the main gesture to realize such intension. The sloped roof both indroduce the exterior (from the south end) and bring in the public (in the north end). The corridor spaces are folded rather than the shortest distance between destinations: for the purpose of imbeding programs into circulations rather then a purely function drive passways system. 12

PROGRAM As the major program creative thought in this project, the AUD OMNI as a incubator plays a role of bridging up academic world and professional world. In that sense, students could benefit from office renters/ start upers by embibing their professional cutting edge thoughs while renters could taking use of the school resources both in terms of tools and intellegence.

TERRACING One important though about the roof gesture is exhibition. Architecture school has been so latent in the current campus that the quality of display has been highly underestimated. Based on the essensce of architecture major, what students making in the school should be displayed to the whole campus. The three roof terraces leading from the couryard to the building inside plays such a role to bring in views and attentions from the campus to the school. They are not only displaying platfroms but also working areas reaching to studios: why not work in a open semi-exterior spaces rather then your tiny little table?

CORRIDOR As another major topic disscussed in the studio, the corridor has been studied and classified into groups: based on the relationship between adjacent programs. One important question is how to embib programs and informal activities into this circulation driven functional spaces. The zig-zag of passways shown in the floor plans is driven under the intension of making width as response to crowd volume. To be more clearified. wider corridor means possiblities of social and communicating, while narrowr corridor means passing. In that way, the building was populated under the rule of corridor.

WHEN BOULLEE MARRIES VENTURI This is a post-modern studio. More specifically, the studio is aimed to explore the significance of architecture (as a response to the international style generic buildings whose individual identities is getting more and more blurry) based on study of Étienne-Louis Boullée’s monumental architecture work and Robert Venturi’s definition of symbol and icon. There are several assignments (such as study of iconic from, ‘miniature photography’ and telling stories about spaces by using the form and photo studied previously)prepared for the finale architecture design project- the mid-west museum in a generic site in Chicago.

STORY #1 THE ‘CANDY MOUNTAIN’ Entry points are unnapparent and restrict full views of the interior until arrival at the star-shaped atrium. From there, populated towers rise up and frame the sky. Views of the exterior are available only at the two highest of the five peaks, the other three afford different vantage points of the interior. For the bulk of inhabitants, this arcology restricts focus to within, only the most privileged maintain awareness of an outside world. 24

STORY #2 THE ‘BLOOM’ As the dawn crept over the horizon, a sense of their surroundings took form. Before them lay an immeasurable spread intermittently perforated by pockets of green. To the north, something metallic glimmered behind the lifting fog. Each stood knee-deep in a densely knit mound of mossy grass. Beneath them, the ground was a circular oasis of rich, black earth in an otherwise barren, rocky landscape. Their pale skin began to darken in the rising sun. Their muscles, weak and tired, began to flex beneath their filmy clothing. Their eyes brightened as addresses, errands, and all manner of imperatives began to take shape in their minds. Thoughts of confusion were replaced by needs, objectives, and hunger. One of the men in a business suit looked at his watch and coughed impatiently. All at once, they unstuck their feet from the dirt and dispersed. 26
27
STORY #3 CENATAPH DE TORIN This is a wonderful morning as usual, though not as usual as that a century before. People are still trapped by the post-century flood. That is why those gigantic monuments are standing there, and no longer served as monument only. Yes, they are sparse oasis in the desert. Yes, it is Cenataph de Torin, though it only existed on paper in 18th century France. Yes, people are building there life and home there! Trees are spring up out from brick gaps; Tenements are built upon terraces; those stages for pilgrims are now served as everyday used trails. People at the age are forced to go back to primitive, but they never know primitive could be so harmonious. Maybe, instead of the end of the world, this is an opening for another world.

STORY #4.1 THE PILGRIMAGE The increasing loss of horizontal identity led to the formation of the Midwest horizon preservation society, dedicated to collecting and maintaining the fading horizons of the region. Their assertionswere simple: without distinguished horizon, all concepts of exteriorspace were without basis.The loss of distinction between up and down would inevitably damage the human psyche and all but destroy the overarching regional identity. Road trips would lose their romance, cowboys would ride off into the fog, and sextants wouldgo obsolete. It became the preservation society’s mission to create a last bastion where horizons remained pristine and untouched.
30

32
STORY #4.2 HORIZON CRISIS We were losing our horizons. Perhaps it was the low hanging smog, or an untreated myopic epidemic, but the skylines that so defined the Midwest since the beginning of time had begun to lose their distinction. The earth and heaven were no longer discrete; their division had been replaced by a slow, foggy gradation. Gone was the thin film separating the yellow prairie from the vast blue sky, gone were the silostudded silhouettes contouring the edges of vision, and gone too were the iconic cityscapes that reached jaggedly upward like a glistening underbite.
33
34
STORY #4.3 AT THE TOP OF ‘MOUNTAIN’ The enormous mountain-tower that was their refuge provided both a landmark against the abstract panorama and a lookout for any signs of a reemerging horizon. High above, when the smog would thin or break, the gentle curvature of earth was still visible, and the monks at the highest peaks would focus their telescopes and camera obscura on the phenomena and project it downward on the mountain for all to see
and feel. And in this way, the horizon repository became the storage place of lost skylines, cityscapes, vistas, scenes and panoramas; a catalog of divisions, distinctions, splits, and separations between above and below; a rehabilitation center for those whose loss of exterior spatial reference had taken its toll, and an outpost searching the distance for signs of the horizon’s return.

NOVELTY OF STEEL The Steel House Studio of UCLA has a history of 10 years. This is a construction-oriented studio, which means other than a strong architectrual design scheme required, a comprehensive understanding of construction should also be indivated. The final product is a set of design document including architecture and structure. My shceme is based on a response to the 20th century steel static, and saying that other than the post-lintel mode, steel has the potential to describe surfaces. The project is about a folding spatial manupulation plus an exploration of the specific steel stactic attached on it.

ENVELOPE Samper already provided us with tectonic paradign about architectural envelpe in 19th century. Skin is an important part of architecture as structure is. In this project, a study of zinc panel system is processed as the vehicle for building envelope. By taking use of metal’s thermal property, hot water pipe is embeded underneath, and as a optional way for hot water supply.

FIBER-REINFORCED PLASTIC This project is just for arguing the potential significant of the conventional warehouse which is widely considered as “faceless architecture”. The project starts from research of one perticular architectural material for its ‘myth’, which is fiber reinforced plastic for my group. The final product is a sculpture expressing the meaning of this material. This is a difficult task because compared to materials such as concrete and brick, FRP is never a traditional architectural material. There is not any established myth about this material in mind, so it is necessary for us to create one. By taking use of its positive performance of strength and weight, FRP can free spaces from wall or grid structure, which has been strongly defined by masonry and concrete columns. In the spatial paradigm defined by plastic, there is no longer concept of wall or ground, and any boundaries can be erased.

DIRTRIBUTION CENTER The increasing loss of horizontal identity led to the formation of the Midwest horizon preservation society, dedicated to collecting and maintaining the fading horizons of the region. Their assertionswere simple: without distinguished horizon, all concepts of exteriorspace were without basis.The loss of distinction between up and down would inevitably damage the human psyche and all but destroy the overarching regional identity. Road trips would lose their romance, cowboys would ride off into the fog, and sextants wouldgo obsolete. It became the preservation society’s mission to create a last bastion where horizons remained pristine and untouched. 55
56
STRUCTURE In the building system, Fiber Reinforced Plastic is majorly used as the cladding material. The building system can be divided into four layers. There are two layers of FRP cladding system between which the structure steel frame sandwiched. The external panels are prefabricated and adjustable; the inner surface is for rain proof and thermal purpose. Thus, the utilization of FRP is maximized in its expressing aspect instead of structural aspect, which is part of the myth I found of this certain material.

58
MODULARITY In this project, modularity is an embedded idea with tectonic. There should be two aspects of the concept of modularity. One is prefabricated duplicability; the other is changeability. Based on this concept, the dynamic panel system is applied to the building structure as the building envelope. Each panel are in the same size and they position is adjustable via rotation. The envelope is dynamic and changes its form according to the bike track system.
59
HYBRID As described before, the aim for this project is to develop a new warehouse building typology. Presented in program and plan, this new type of warehouse is mainly comprised of working and traffic program.
60
For the working area, there are assembling lines, truck docks and storage racks. For the bike traffic part, there are track and bicycle station. There two parts of program collaborate soundly without interference with each other.

TECTONIC Based on study Kenneth Frampton’s tectonic, another important part of this project is about study the wall section of the designed warehouse. Since the warehouse building type has homogeneous structural components, it is a good opportunity to study the way it tectonic through wall section. The wall details drawing shows how the movable panel work with steel frames..

CONTEXT As a community for bikers, the warehouse context provides them a new sports context; as a warehouse for works, the bike community program injects vigor to the monotonous working flout.

PARKLAND AIRCRAFT INSTRUCTIONAL FACILITY Second Year Graduate Level Studio Individual Work Prof: Camden Greenlee Aug 2011 - Dec 2011 Champaign, IL, USA
64
65
AIRCRAFT INSTRUCTIONAL FACILITY The Parkland Community College Air-frame and Power Plant Instructional Facility (APIF) provides aircraft hangar space, classroom, and metal- and electronics shop facilities together with the required offices for administrative support staff at Willard Airport in Champaign, Illinois. With the new facility the community college responds to the recent increase of demand for highly trained aircraft mechanical engineers and maintenance personnel in the aviation industry. Additional justification for the construction of the new instructional facility stems from an increase of interest and enrollment of foreign students who seek opportunities to be instructed in the maintenance and repair of predominantly U.S.-manufactured aircraft in their home countries.
66
WRAPPING The concept is a practical and straightforward response to the site and program requirement, which is to ‘wrap up’ all the programs by using continuous frame structure and finally organize them into separated parts. The concept developing diagram shows the responses to site in different stages.
67
ENVELOPE Energy efficiency is one big part of this project. The design of the building envelope should take into consideration of the UA value. Total UA value should be calculated by the sum up the products of area and resistance. There is standard value looked up from chart and calculate level according to the design. A comparison should be made at last and leading the next step of HVAC design.
68
69
ARCHITECTURE EQUIPMENT Thermal calculation and design of HVAC system is one of the big portions of this integrated design project. For the first stage, the UA value of building envelope system has to be calculated. Then it follows the choosing of HVAC system. Finally a specific duct system for ventilation and cooling & heating proposal has to be given.
HVAC SYSTEM CHOOSING -The building hvac system is basically consisted of a central all- air vav system and a central all-water fan coil system. -Main-system: The all-air vav system serves the hanger and shops, of which the area is comparatively larger. vav system can offer a high degree of temperature control while keeps a moderate cost. This system mostly serves the internal spaces. -Secondary system: The all-water fan coil system serves the offices and classrooms, which mainly locate in the second floor with a comparatively smaller area. This system saves much more area of ducts and makes it possible to control temperature of individual rooms separately.
70
ZONING -This zoning diagram only shows the biggest picture of zoning idea, which means zones can be increased if higher thermal condition wanted be achieved. -HVAC zoning basically based on the following considerations: 1.activities 2.Schedule 3.orientation 4.internal heat gains -Basically Hangar and other programs are separated because of large difference in terms of size and activities (hangar has higher requirement of thermal condition for the equipment maintenance). -Furthermore, other programs are divides into zones according to space area and utility frequency. The staff and students are also taken into account and different thermostats are provided.
DUCTS, PIPES AND MECHANIC ROOM -The mechanic room locates in basement (the mid-top side of building). -Main duct of the vav system runs through the mid-corridor and branch ducts go to the two wings (short direction). The supply diffusers locate in perimeter side while return diffusers locate in internal side. -Water pipes which supply hot and cold water of the all-water fan coil system run through the holes on w-sections and internal partition walls. All –water system serves the perimeter spaces which have large glazing area facing outside.
71
THE WALL SECTION For the detail construction, corrugated steel sheet is adopted as major surfacing material. Insulations and water infiltrations are two essential layers which have to wrapping around the transverse section to make sure the building is well proofed.
72
DUPLICABILITY One major feature of this building system is its duplicable frame structure. The oval itself decomposed and recomposed again to form different spaces. The four sections shows the major transition point of the whole structure system.

NONUMENTAL+MUDANITY Infrastructures are those urban elements of which the mundane utilization domains all other architectural significances. Pools and drainage water treatments are two typical examples. The first is all about recreation and the latter is totally for purification. Under the condition that the current flood handling capacity of New York City is required to be enhanced and more water treatments are needed, there is a question about how to keep the balance between constructions of additional water plants and preservation of existing open spaces.

CHICAGO SCHOOL STATIC Chicago is one of those cities whose image is firmly asscociated with its signrature skyline. Especially in this case of Chicago, skyline as a aggregation of 19th century technological artifaces, seems means more to the architectrue discourse as a ‘towerish’ static. Franklin point is one of those famous open spaces located in the central part of downtowen Chicago. Couple competetions have been held searching for a optimistic proposal for the lot’s occupation. This is a studio focusing right on this topic. The design process runs from masterplan initially to the architecural proposal as well as some detail study of the building components.

Public spaces is intersected in between those 100’ height towers. Beside, facade projections are varying according to the apartments unit types, with based on the market requirement. Podiums are simple stackings with set backs at certain distance, for both public and private utilization.
