At present, the pension institutions operating in the base for retired workers who have witnessed the development of WISCO's golden age are in urgent need of transformation. We want to explore a new pension mode, combine WISCO culture and innovation with the pension industry, reawaken the memory of the base, and let the old people and young people who related to WISCO culture gather here again to inherit knowledge, experience and skills.

Los Tres En/aces is a new model of progressive transit-oriented development (TOD} within a diverse urban context founded on three pillars : social, environmental, and economic resiliency.

URBAN RESIDENTIAL COMPLEX- Knowledge Nomads UIA-HYP CUP 2078 International Student Competition in Architectural Design-Design a Urban Residential Complex in a First or Second Tiered Cities of China Site: Nanshaomen, Xi'an, Shaanxi, China Site Area: 25,000m 2 Building Area: 8, 04 7m 2 Use: Temporary living, Convenient working, Social Communication Individual Work

In contemporary Chinese society, there is a large group of people who spend half their day working and the other half on the road. The floating population with such a "nomadic" living condition is not migrant workers , but closer to a so-called urban "knowledge nomads". This site is in Nanshaomen, next to the City Wall, on the central axis of Xi 'an, which is an important transportation hub of subway and bus with many office buildings nearby.

L Knowledge nomads are always wandering among various of transportation media and office spaces, which form a set of enclosing flowing system.

Urban Canal- The lnterbay Pass in Seattle UTSOA 2079 Winter Landscape Architecture and Urban Design Studio - Urban Design Project in lnterbay of Seattle, Cascadia Instructor: Prof. Dean Almy and Maggie Hansen Site: lnterbay, Seattle, USA Site Area: 1. 382 mi 2 Use: Artists Live-work, Affordable Housing, Business Live-work, Expedia Live-work, Ecology Industry, fishermen's Terminal Team Member: Charlie Weber, Carly Choi, Meizi Yang

In 1917, by releveling and uniting the region 's vast inland freshwater lakes and rivers, the Ballard Locks forever changed the landscape and economy of Seattle. At the same time, our seas are rising, the climate is warming, and all life is suffering from industrial pollution and unsustainable resource extraction. By cutting a canal from Salmon Bay to Smith Cove, lnterbay Pass first provides a redundant and complementary alternative to the Ballard Locks. In turn, it also offers Seattle an opportunity to rebuild this 'dead zone' of an urban neighborhood into a catalyst that can reframe its industrial ecosystem for the next 100 years . Our design exp/orations illustrate the potential for the Pass to also ground new and existing dense, urban live-work neighborhoods with stronger and forward-looking ecological and community connections.

Nowadays, young people have less leisure time after work. When they come home from work, they live alone and need more communication and stronger workplace connections. In the same way, entrepreneurs in the early stage are eager for better platforms to expand their communication scope, so that they can exchange resources and contacts with each other and bring better opportunities for the development of the company. As a result, an industrial park containing living space is the best choice.

COLLEGE STUDENT ACTIVITY CENTER- SUPERIMPOSED SPACE XAUAT 2016 Winter Architecture Option Studio-Design a Student Center in the XAUAT Campus, Subtracting Space Instructor: Prof. Rui Wu Site: XAUA T, Xi'an, Shaanxi, China Site Area: 744m 2 Building Area: 625m 2 Structure: Steel Structure Use: Coffee, Reading, Meeting, Exhibition, Office Individual Work

This plan is to design a new student activity center on the northeast side of the teaching building of Architecture College in XAUA T campus, which is required to be made into tower because of the limited area. In response to the beautiful view around the site and needs to have two different entrances, subtracting space in different directions has become a clue of this design.

+ Dig block and generate main space A

Dig block and generate main space B

The intersection creates a connection between the two

The activity center needs a variety of functions, and there is a certain relationship between them. Therefore, each digged block in the cube corresponds to a kind of function, after digging the block again, the overlapping parts between the two are opened to form a connection. These overlapping parts can serve as internal circulation space between major spaces.

Step 1: Concept of digging space

Step 3: Use materials to differentiate main and auxiliary space

Step 2: Reverse the re lation between figure and ground

Step 4: Use models to reflect structural possibilities

I Activity center I

The digged spa ce is more private and specific, like the office or reading room. While the remaining space is more open, with a great deal of eye contact between each other. This division of privacy and open space is determined in the process of modeling, and it's ultimately represented by the material distinction.

WOODEN INSTALLATION DESIGN 2016 The 13th "Greenbelt Cup" Shaanxi Students Entity Space Construction Contest - Design a Climbing Device to Interact with Pedestrians Site: XAUA T, Xi'an, Shaanxi, China Site Area: 5. 76(2.4x2.4) m2 Structure: Wood Structure Use: Climbing, Performance, Advertising, Playing Group Work: 3 members (main concept designer & participated in the final construction) Obtained 2 nd Prize

This plan is to design a wood structure installation, which is convenient for students and residents to have a rest and play. The site is located in the campus area where students gather for activities. There are often some small concerts, campus promotional activities and other activities held on the square nearby. Therefore, this installation can provide people for climbing and sightseeing and temporarily be used as a small stage. Most importantly, it becomes a public information platform where people can leave messages to each other.

URBAN RENEWAL -INSTALLATION DESIGN 2017 Korea-China Architecture Students Workshop - Design a plan that responds to the spatial problem of Hongdae Street in Seoul Instructor: Prof. Kim Sung Hong, Yueyan LI Site: Hongdae area, Seoul, South Korea Site Area: 15,400m 2 Use: Entertainment, Performance, Shopping, Visiting Group Work (main concept designer) Personal Part

The Hongdae street is close to Hongik University, which is a prosperous art block, filled with many kinds of stores and restaurants. But the crowds are so dense that local planners hope to spread the neighborhood's culture and influence to release the crowded feeling of the street. The street Sang-su dong in the southeast direction have a low flow of people at present. So it is possible to take measures to guide the flow of people from Hongdae street to Sang-su dong.

Each colu mn can be fo ld e n whenever we don't need to make the shadow in the wi nter

Basic structure system

Installation-a mainly provides shelter over the street, blocking the sun in hot summer and temporarily shelter people from the rain in rainy days. It also separates the visiting crowd and the shopping crowd, avoiding the congestion on street.
