DYNAMIC URBANISM: GREENWALK Seoul Urban Design 2013 - International Idea Competition Finalist: The Third Prize Team Members: Youngsuk Jun, Shu Kuei Hsu, Janice Chen Concept Development Reconnecting North-South disconnection by infilterating outer infleunces. Aggregate of influences generate energy and activities which result in growth of the community.
Jemulpo-gil is a name of an expressway in Seoul, South Korea that runs in an eastwest direction, from Youido, an island on Han river, to Shinwol interchange on the western edge of the city. The expressway has deepen the separation between the north and south sides, and further deteriorated the living condition of the area. The Seoul Metropolitan Government has been considering the idea of converting the surface of Jemulpo-gil to public space. Eco-Community: This zone is designated for the surrounding communities. This zone poses opportunities for the neighborhoods to truly engage in community activities with practice of sustainability. This is a place for community recreations with enhancement of human well being.
Commercial Hub: This zone offers a lively public realm for local businesses, small ven light structures accommodate cafes, shops and restaurants and se vibrant and dynamic experience of city life.
The vision of Greenwalk is to regenerate and revitalize the public realm and serve as the catalyst for reconnecting the broken urban fabric. Greenwalk conceives Jemulpo express line into three distinct program zones that correlate with the current land use composition within the adjacent blocks: Eco-Community [Zone 1], Commercial Hub [Zone 2], and Civic Commons [Zone 3].

Amphitheaters
The new form seamlessly mimics the naturally undulating nearby mountain range and provides the users with different choices of paths and dynamic experience of the site by generating varied cadence and rhythm throughout the walk of the path. The spaces created in between undulating forms have immense potential for many different activities and leisure.

S-MATRIX: INFILTRATION THROUGH SCATTERING 2014 ULI Hines Competition, Nashville, Tennessee Role: Team Leader Team Members: Youngsuk Jun, Heli Ojimaa, Kei-Sing Yiu, Jerry Tao, Bo Peng 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 infi nite past to the infinite future.with enhancement of human well being.

An overarching theme of infiltration through scattering impacted our design approach for developing the site in thinking about flood mitigation and resilience, site program and design, connectivity and activation, and modes of transport.

Waterfront Park
The new Waterfront Park will connect the neighbohood to waterfront. The park will have multiple funtions and facilities: wetland walk (stormwater management), outdoor swimming pools, outdoor theaters and more. The wetland walk (north end of the park) will certainly reduce the potential flood damage in the near future.

Music Greenway
The Music Greenway will not only function as a community gathering/communiting area but also become a waterway which would be active during heavy rains to cope against rainstorm. Community garden will also be active along the Music Greenway.

Koi Pond Vegetable Garden
Fire Pit This project was about coming up with a landscape design for a Living Building Challenge certified house in Bainbridge Island, WA. The client was Jason F. McLennan, the founder and CEO of Living Building Challenge. The house was for his family, and he already had his design for the house and he wanted my team to come up with a landscape design for the surroundings. Ultimately, this project will become a great showcase piece as a Living Building Challenge certified design.

CHRISTIE PARK: URBAN PLAYGROUND AMONG RUINS 2013 University of Washington Urban Play Studio Site: University District, Seattle, WA Christie Park is located at 9th Ave NE and NE 43rd Street. Christie Park is currently not being used well by the neighbors, which are mainly university students and single families. The site is in a great location and it is only a couple of blocks away from the future light rail station. Christie Park has great potential to become the park of urban play and fun in the U-District, a neighborhood that is seriously lacking green space and parks. The newly proposed design for Christie Park will transform it into and Urban Playground Among Ruins with lush nature and fun activities for everyone to enjoy and appreciate.

Strips of Concrete Walls
Tree Obstacle Course
12 feet-tall concrete wall has been blocking peoples’ view and increased the risk of crime and illegal camping. The wall will be teared down into strips. This will result in getting rid of shaded, dangerous spots in the park and, at the same time, will create the feel of old ruins with ivy climbing up the walls.
This section will be placed in front of the strips of walls. Tree logs and big branches will be installed and create very lush, organic area for people to talk, play, or just have a great time. Robustness is the strength of this zone.

Expansion of Green
This zone is here to invite people to actively participate in small community gatherings or events. Red lounge chairs will be placed on top of the concrete tile platform so people can sit down and relax or have small parties when needed.
The original design of Christie Park consists of many dull concrete pavers and platforms. To upcycle the materials on site, the broken concrete pieces will be reused to construct different parts in the park, including a concrete tile path and boulders for extra seating.
The expansion of plants to the edge of the pedestrian street will not only offer wider areas for people to enjoy the open space but also will help reduce the rainwater runoffs. (Please refer to the Site Plan)
RAB PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITAL: THERAPEUTIC GARDEN 2014 University of Washington Design/Build Studio Site: Rab, Croatia As a studio class, led by Professor Daniel Winterbottom, we went to the Island Rab, Croatia, to design and build a therapeutic garden in the Rab psychiatric hospital. Design process took 2 weeks and, with the help of the students from the University of Zagreb, it took us students 2 months to finish building the garden. From installing drainage pipes to placing every single edging, everything was done manually by the students and help of the patients of the hospital. We designed the garden mainly to help the doctors and the patients with psychotherapy by providing spaces for different sensual activities, such as a pavillion for games and learning, a sensory path, a dog therapy area, and music therapy station.
