and details as well as how to respond to the conflicts among various cultures in the city. Go back to history. The architecture was limited to the authority, while the city was constructed by carpenters and laborers, not the architects. I deem that contemporary architecture should learn from civic life and act as a system that serves the urban organism and public interest. Culture can be understood as a macro neighborhood relation constructing the coexistence of city life. We should make a building like a systematic structure, leading to a cultural-oriented construction.
The word’ structuralized’ comes from the ‘structuralism’ by Herman Hertzberger, which is originally a more philosophical notion. It contains the idea of competence and performance, which encourages architects to make some

basic structure and then the word structure, allowing people to perform in their ways. I suggest that structuralized consideration has sufficient flexibility to adapt to changes. We distinguish it by some suitable spaces where people can do whatever they want rather than coordinate it by function. To be specific, sufficient toilets, staircases.
In short, Structuralized culture needs to consider how to interpret and deconstruct cultural phenomena and reality. It may be a sensitive abstract of local culture. New interactions and technologies will be combined and form a widely accepted communication mode. Thus structuralized culture should be a state in progress filled with bottom-up activity.

A large number of people gathered on both sides of the canal and earned their livings. The boats brought abundant goods, rare foreign toys, and stories. Cultural events happen along the canal, fostering tourism in riverbank cities. Many families in Tianjin skilled in lunar paintings’ production, promoting a high degree of art gathering and economic growth. I hope we discussed the canal project as a revival of past infrastructure and constructed multiple grounds, then conceived a future floating art entertainment city prototype. The Art complex serves as a common cultural framework, demonstrates the linking of nearby terminal rail stations and a complex network of four underground metro lines, defining a node of hypermobility. Artists and art lovers lived around the art complex. Art was a medium for people’s communication, and the canal became a carrier of art. Every household had its own art propaganda medium-modular boat. Exhibitions and trades could be carried out by boats. Art rippled through the entire town with ships, taking them to further places in the Canal Culture Circle, integrate into people’s daily lives.

MAPPING OF NOMADIC CANAL CULTURE
REBORN OF LUNAR ART PROPAGANDA SYSTEM
The Beijing-Hangzhou Canal connects the Chinese three major cultural circles. Tianjin is a typical ribbon-shaped city, industrialized in trade and transportation. In ancient times, Yangliuqing District was famous for producing Lunar paintings. However, the conservative content of Lunar pictures cannot be recognized by youngsters. Simultaneously, the old town cannot attract more tourists due to its replicated renovation and loss of locality.

INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPS A NARRATIVE APPROACH FOR TRADITIONAL CULTURE Future art TOD on the Canal will serve as a medium for cultural revival, besides macroscale production, which is also considered the podium and public space for co-living. I deconstruct the art production steps, create a narrative 'fun palace' story for the art lovers, and divide art propaganda procedures into four stages. The first step was art production in Maxi-Block. The second step was the bottom-up Waterfront Art Center for exhibition, accommodating artists' self-arrangement needed after finishing the nomadic art show. The third step was propaganda. Art Information Centre attracts visitors in cyberspace, connects conference atrium and media studio. While the core atrium carries out art conferences and news press, the trading center creates different privacy space for negotiation and business deal through the separate shaped arched area. The last step was dealing and bargain happened in an ambiguous arch space.

A Guide towards Landless Peasants Clan Agricultural Community Design and Rethinking Developmental City Chapter 01: After Graduation Period Academic Project (LIN Architure Open Studio: the Physiognomies)| Fall 2020 Group Work| Group Member: Haoyuan Xu Contribution: Research(50%), Concept(50%), Urban Strategy(30%), Architecture Design(70%), Drawing(70%), Handmade Modeling(30%) Design Started Date: August 2020 (During Gap months) Site: Langqi Island, Fuzhou, China Type: Urban Design Instructor: Lifeng Lin Land-owning represents the most fundamental aspiration of Chinese peasants. The slogan 'fair land distribution for peasants' promoted national independence. It reflects the common framework of rural production, life, and culture. Since the 'Reform and Opening-up' policy, urbanization has brought about a contradiction between urban and rural areas, one of which is the destruction of land ownership. Our manifesto started with this background and the Garden City theory, to discuss a sustainable developing pattern of urban-rural relationship. Based on peasants' allowance gathered as construction fund, namely "the landlord tax," we organized settlement as Fujian clan community. Urban strategies towards topography characteristics and the symbolic economy could attract industries and tourists to develop a new clan village as a special kind of common urban framework. The manifesto's layout was presented in the way of spatial Product Promotion. As a seller, urban designers merchandised this rural model product to landless peasants and governors. This product studied farmers' rights, the distribution of agriculture ownership, and the possibility of rural development. The object was a productized rural product under a phased developmental strategy.

MANIFESTO OF CLAN COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC INVESTMENT PHASE The establishment of a utopian garden city in the wasteland can be realized using four steps based on collecting the landlord’s tax to deduct the expenses. The Guide benefited from the economic model of Garden City. After collecting the demolition funds, an investment committee is established to manage the land bought through government subsidies in phases while absorbing social investment. Development of various infrastructure and profit functions, land lease, and capital income will become the primary economic source for villagers’ welfare and profits.

PHASED DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY FOR THE CLAN VILLAGE The construction can be divided into 3 phases. After collecting the demolition funds, an investment committee is established to manage the land bought through government subsidies in stages while absorbing social investment. The different phase has different developmental priorities, development of various infrastructure and profit functions, land prices, and the land lease will become the primary economic source for villagers’ welfare and village profits.

Rotate from Day to Night Two Rotatable Tree House Modules Chapter 01: After Graduation Period Academic Project| Winter 2019 (YAC Tree House Module Competition) Individual Project Design Started Date: November 2019 (During off-work time) Site: Mothe Chandeniers, France Type: Kinetic Travelers' House Dimentions: Module1 65m³& Module2 100m³ Instructor: Wei Liu
Mothe Chandeniers is an extraordinary French countryside. It has dense forest, ancient French classicism’s axis space, and a romantic Gothic castle. I tried to make this place become a successful narration of this romantic ruin, enabling travelers to stay away from the interference of annoying external environment when they came here. Simultaneously, surrounded by birds’ songs and indulged in beautiful sceneries. My strategy was to make two types of rotatable tree houses that can respond to the forest's beauty and follow the landscape in different directions at different times—simultaneously generating the possibility of overlapping spatial forms and functions. The kinetic structure was designed according to mechanical self-balance and overhung beam balance. The treehouses rotated from day to night, creating an exciting experience for forest-dwelling and family picnic.
tree house rotates 360° in a whole day

MULTI-VIEW SIGHTS IN A WHOLE DAY BY ROTATING When the tree house rotated to different angles, it presents the landscape of various distances and height, such as wheat fields, forest, stream, and gothic castle, enabling tourists to embrace the whole of nature in the treehouse. The treehouse spun 360° in a day. I provide a table to interpret the rotate status and function potential for the usage. The functions are disassembled and inserted by rotation at different angles. The house's idea and geometric shape came from the different dwelling prototype, such as the original thatched house, the Buddhist rotating vessel, Gypsy's mobile carriage, and the site spirit's interpretation of Acropolis.

Youngsters' Hybridized Apartment Hybridized Apartment as Youngsters' Interface towards City Chapter 02: University Period Academic Project| Fall 2017 (Selection of CAU Architectural School Gallery) Individual Project Design Started Date: September 2017 (First semester in the 4th year) Site: Beilin District, Xi'an, China Type: Highrise Apartment And Community Commercial Centre Instructor: Wei Liu
Le Corbusier proposed the concept of 'Vertical City's 1922. However, compared with Corbusier's original intention, Chinese 'Vertical Cities' are only vertical buildings, but not cities. This project tried to explore the possibility of weaving youngsters' demands, like working, living, and shopping, into a whole building. The proportion of these sectors changed with floors and reorganized activities for a hybridized state. The volumes set back and created different sizes of public space. I supposed it would be a creative dwelling region for low-income workers and youngsters in the future. Activities like sports, conferences, lectures were hybridized, acting as an incubator for the city.Interesting vertical traffic is the key to build the Hybridized public space. The route snaked up in the building, connecting all programs and different needs of youngsters.

Revival of Textile Market Renovation of Abandoned Textile Commercial Community Chapter 02: University Period Academic Project| Spring 2019 2019 Excellent Graduation Project of Chang'an University Individual Project Design Started Date: January 2019 (Second semester in the 5th year) Site: Qian Town, Xi'an, China Type: Exhibition Architecture Renovation and Expansion (Graduation Project) Building Area: 18600 m² Instructor: Jin Ge& Dongxue Fu In the 1980s, due to the developed transportation, the 'Big Market' of Qian Town became the largest cloth market in northwest China. It provided production and wholesale of cloth and reprocessed textile products like dresses and quilts. People there were incredibly honored for their textile industry. Due to policy, the trade of cloth has declined. The market transformed into a place where residents buy daily necessities, which made people feel regretful. Many workers lost their jobs and were confused about the future. The 'Big Market' location is critical for located in the heart of old Qian town. New developments focus on a contemporary mix of affordable housing, shared-working mode, and industrial tourism renovation. This activity is historically linked to textile culture. It also faces the problem of surrounded by a so-called 'urban village,' which symbolizes poverty and unemployment. Still, it is for that very reason attractive to newcomers of all kinds: people new to Xi'an, tourists, artists, young workers. Rather than a commercial developmental method, my proposal offered an attitude of radical and dedicated optimism towards historical section renovation and provided a vigorous legion of creative work and dynamic experience for new residents, artists, and tourists, including an art gallery and a textile factory.
