PACKARD AUTOMOVILE PLANT RENOVATION
site. duration. program. materials.
Detroit, Michigan Sep. 2013 ~ May. 2014 Multi-Complex Concrete, Masonry, Steel, Glass
5 It is the undergraduate thesis work that began with a question of ambiguity between utopia and dystopia. It observes how utopia have transformed into dystopia and proposes how to reverse such transformations through new designs and programs. One of abandoned factories, Packard Automobile Plant in Detroit which has been considered the new dystopia in contemporary eras, was chosen to experiment the thesis. Not only does it preserve the industrial legacy of old Detroit but also opens up new market and job positions for Detroiters; ultimately, it will be able to revitalize the energy of Detroit that had once held the spine of American economy.
