Final Workshop 'ANTICO E NUOVO' '23
Professor: Massimo Ferrari|Nora Lombardini Cristián Undurraga|Elena Montanari
In Collaboration with: Sara Ballarini|Carlos Daniel Regolf
Location: Conservatorio Lucio Campiani, Mantova, Italy
The current structure, known as the 'Conservatorio Lucio Campiani,' has served various functions throughout its historical evolution, transitioning from a convent to a military barracks, then a high school, and finally a conservatory. Our current project aims to repurpose the abandoned section of the Conservatorio Lucio Campiani, aligning with the semester's theme of 'old and new.'
Considering the already high building density in the vicinity, we've contemplated the possibility of transforming this area into a buffer zone for the city. However, directly across the street from our entrance, there exists a park, and adjacent to the convent is the new 'auditorium' project. In response, we have conceived a design where our structure seamlessly integrates with the ground, leaving a circular feature just above the surface of the terrain. This design also includes a gently sloping accessible path for all visitors, allowing them to traverse or linger in the space comfortably.

The strategy to be developed for this territory stems from a careful analysis of the pre-existing environmental, architectural and cultural features. The resulting intention is to create a system for enhancing the territory that acts as a flywheel for all aspects, naturalistic and anthropic, contained within the Bessa Reserve. With this in mind, it must be remembered that the reserve, with all its many characteristics, plays a fundamental role not only for the territories in the immediate vicinity, but also for the city of Biella.
Two main systems can be clearly distinguished, which, while maintaining their autonomy, are closely connected, and it is only from their working in tandem that the true strength of this project arises. The first of the two systems has as its focal point the enhancement of the cultural and archaeological heritage contained within the Reserve, with the Vermogno settlement as its central point.
The second system, more centred on the naturalistic and road aspect, unravels following the course of the Elvo torrent, providing interested visitors and passing tourists with the possibility of being able to move along the entire north-south axis of the Reserve, and to be able to penetrate inside, with ease and precision. It is clear how these two systems cannot be effective taken individually, and how their connection, through multiple routes within the reserve, makes it possible to fully enjoy all the peculiarities enclosed within the Bessa Reserve.

Reimagining the Facade of the Adjacent Building at Shennong Temple/ Working Project/ IsleDesign 2018
The Shennong Temple, founded approximately 260 years ago in 1741, holds significant historical value and is officially recognized as a historic relic by the Ministry of Interior. Since its inception, the temple has served as the spiritual focal point of the Jojia village, and as such, its growth and evolution are intricately linked to the development of the village.
Notably, in the early 1900s, Jojia village played a pioneering role in the district by establishing its first street. As part of the community's commitment to preserving its rich heritage and invaluable artifacts, the local residents made a collective decision to embark on a restoration project for the temple. Additionally, they sought to revitalize the adjacent building, which currently serves as a library for the local community.
The renovation of this annex building not only preserves its historical significance but also enhances its functionality as a valuable resource for the people of Jojia. This effort reflects the community's dedication to honoring its past while providing modern amenities and services for the present and future generations.
Working Project in IsleDesign '18
Location: Guangfu, Hualien, Taiwan
The Fata'an tribe is renowned as one of the largest within the Amis ethnic group, situated in Guangfu Township, Hualien County, Taiwan. Our project has a central goal: to illuminate the profound cultural legacy that has evolved over centuries in collaboration with the local community. We achieve this through immersive field studies, the acquisition of traditional artistry, and the faithful replication of priceless artifacts. Utilizing virtual imagery, our visitors can embark on a captivating journey through 400 years of Amis culture.
The museum we envision serves as a vital custodian of this invaluable Amis heritage. It fulfills this role by continually gathering cultural insights, preserving significant data, and curating exhibitions within an architecturally stunning setting. This endeavor stands as a testament to our commitment to safeguarding and celebrating the enduring treasures of Amis culture.
The area is known for its hunidity and fierce sunlight. The outer wall is shrunck carefully from biulding line to avoid natural inconvenience.
The south and west side of the building are decorated with ethnic pattern hollowed panels which can not only controll the amount of sunlight but also adjust the temperature in the house.
The open yard is the crucial strategy in providing airy room through the building.
As a green architecture, I try to make a system that could collect rainfall in the water tank and reuse.
Bachelor Project '09
Location: Taipei, Taiwan
Inspired by creating the installation — 1-to-1 scaled plan
Motivated by the concept of crafting a life-sized plan installation, I embarked on a creative journey. Within this endeavor, I selected three distinct types of sheep horns to serve as the core elements in my graphic collage. My aim was to transform these tangible representations into mechanical creatures exuding grace and fluidity.
Initially, I established a set of guidelines for meticulously arranging disparate graphic elements, constructing a collage resembling the organic structure of coral. Subsequently, I ventured into the realm of translating this two-dimensional image into a tangible, three-dimensional object, ultimately fashioning it into a functional mechanical entity. This process allowed me to merge the worlds of art and mechanics, giving life and motion to the imagery that initially inspired me.
The participant could turn on the installation by sitting down on the centre of the object and the corals’ tentacles would gradually lift up and wrap the participant. People would immerse themselves in a chamber of the coral.
To demonstrate its contrast between hard surface and soft status, I decided to use wood and steel joint as materials.
I found out the way to set up pieces one by one explicitly and it finally evolved into a beautiful animal- Hiab Coral.
