SITE ANALYSIS Car-free City 1. Strong Local Community Provide and support high quality facilities, work and living spaces that attracts and makes it possible to both live and work on the islands. Creating an emphasis on shared facilities and public spaces to strengthen the communal feeling within the Island.

2. Provide a Base for Surrounding Islands Establish a better connection with the other islands and establish facilities, such as schools and markets that would increase the life quality within the closer region.

3. Regional / Nation Wide Attraction Provide a high quality network of public and natural recreation that would be a base for tourism and establish a cultural venue and prison museum to build on the history of the Island.

STATEMENT Transportation Infrastructure Innovations Roads take 66% of space in Philadelphia city center now. However, since the dirverless car technology, cars can precisely drive on roads. Furthermore, the needs of car are much decrease since we propose the living cycle will within a walkable distance. That is, both the width of roads itself but also the number of lanes can be reduced. With lots of free space, roads can also change the grid form to slow down and have chance to see what interesting things happends on the street.

Urban Neighborhood- GermanTown

Built Environment Innovations The street space belong Wayne Ave in German town is a typical “car street”, which is not walkable. By narrowing the width of roads and transfer road side parking lots to temporary stop zone, which is similar to bus stops, the street have far more space for activities.Take the old parking lot to a performance stage, take the sidewalk to become a linear park, invite vendor to the street, and people will use the street more.

Mode Innovations The Queen Lane station is a lovely little station.The station building is unique and beautiful, however, the surrounding landscape is all parking lot which provide people transfer. After the vehicle culture change by driverless technology, people don’t need to park thier car at the station, so the free space can become a mode park for waiting and exercising. In addition, we design to make the driverless vehicle can easily attach to train system, which helps people who are not comfortable in walking can still use the train system easily.

1. Add flexible use facilities to increase interaction between people and people

2. Provide gates to nature

Driverless Technology The demand of transport equipment or goods for personal use will solved by storage attachment.

Cars

Since there is no driver, the feeling of ownership of the car is much reduced. It becomes a small scale of public transportation.

12

3. Provide multi-functional street scape to attract activities happened along streets

4. Set different elevation and buffering zone between roads and pedestrain area

The focus of the people in the car will no longer be at the front, but be at the center to have conversation and outside the 360 angle of watching views.

Road could be narrow and exible, allows nature to take place

THAILAND

Restoration to Genuine Green. Formosa, a verdant green island centuries ago, now turns to grey and cemented. Every Taiwanese nowadays consumes concretes 35 kg/yr in average. Shuinan Airport, constructed by Japanese Army with tons of concrete, is a testimony to that cementation process. Restoring the cemented airport to a genuine green should be the ultimate mission of Taichung Gateway Park.

Activity areas of different size are represented as “circles" with irregular layout.

The overlapping areas between circles are drawn lines, forming boundaries between cells.

Cells of different size are designed to be shapes of the same structure through specific rules.

Space between cells f u n c ti o n s b o t h a s boundaries and new aspects, giving new definitions.

Small activity areas can be formed by dividing colossal cells into smaller ones.

Likewise, small cells can merge into a colossal cell as they change always according to the change of the times and needs. 19

WATER PLAN Water is imported from the Gangwei River to create wetlands in the park with aquatic plants to stop suspended solids in water, absorb ammonia nitrogen and inorganic salts, and purify water.

Surface run-off from the main buildings in the park, the park area and rainwater and reclaimed water from surrounding communities are led to the artificial river in the park to offer irrigation, landscape and disaster prevention functions.

Streams, beaches, flooding, and wetlands of different depths create a multi-leveled waterfront space and form continuous plant and animal clusters.

VEGETATION PLAN The climate in Taichung is rainy in summer and dry in winter. The micro-terrain in Taichung can be categorized into six important types of inhabit, including wetland, forest, lawn, stream, garden and precious old trees scattered far and wide. This planting design contain the six important types of terrain as cells in the Central Park organism, hoping Garden to reach the goal of creating continuity with the surrounding micro-terrain of the same attribute and allowing diverse ecologies to enter and create symbiosis.

Fog Collector

Peru Community Design Project type: Planning, Urban Design Team Number: 4 Duration: 3 weeks Responsibility: Precedent study, Concept development, Master Plan, Urban Core Design

35

SITE Lomas De Zappallal is a small viallage at Peru. The climate and landform there make them hard to get clean water. There is lots of fog, but no rain.

The cemetery site for Lomas de Zappallal serves multiple communities and purposes beyond those of a typical cemetery. For the LdZ community the cemetery sits high above its dwellings and acts both as burial ground and gathering space for holiday celebrations.

PROTOTYPE The idea from these prototype is come from two main reasons. First, we want people can have their own fog collector which is portable, personal, and cheap. To achieve this apporach, the new collector should be less consumable, cheap, and easy to build. So we try to combine structure, gutter and basis part together to not only reduce the weight but also make it affordable.

Second, in order to fir the context of cemetery site, we make fog collectors as the media for the journey between life and death. It bring life back by giving water to plant; and also guilding people to cemetery to see the past. As a result, we choice “Sail Boat� to be the original form for this prototype.

MUSIC GREEN WAY

INFIRTRATION THROUGH SCATTERING Moving particles deviating from a straight trajectory by one or more paths due to localized non-uniformities in the medium through which they pass is called scattering. In this process, the incoming particles differ from the outgoing particles, as they are transformed by their interactions. In particle physics the S-matrix is used to calculate this process that relates the infinite past to the infinite future.

This design proposal for the redevelopment of the Sulphur Dell district embodies several of these principles. It’s reintroduction of recreation as a site and community asset looks to the past where picnics, trading, and recreation where main activities of the district.

The current boom of the Nashville Farmer’s Market just west of the project site and the planned development of the New Nashville Ballpark allow for creating the development of a community with a connection to the historical past rooted in baseball and a vision for a healthy community enriched by an initiative of urban agriculture integration into site and building planning and design. In a location that is at the crossing of many paths, this site and proposed development offers an opportunity to transform the inputs and outputs of people and elements through their interactions with a goal of creating a liveable and healthy community through numerous synergies.
