三十幅共一毂，当其无，有车之用。埏植以为器，当其无有器之用。 凿户牖以为室，当其无，有室之用。故有之以为利，无之以为用。 ——《道德经 十一章》 Put thirty spokes together and call it a wheel; But it is on the space where there is nothing that the usefulness of the wheel depends. Turn clay to make a vessel; But it is on the space where there is nothing that the usefulness of the vessel depends. Pierce doors and windows to make a house; And it is on these spaces where there is nothing that the usefulness of the house depends. Therefore, just as we take advantage of what is, we should recognize the usefulness of what is not. (Morality - Chapter 11, Laozi, BC 500）

There are two types of experience pathways including an on-ground and elevated pathway. The elevated pathway connects the buildings providing not only a new experience but also safety at the road. This elevated pathway also provides the multi-purpose plaza that people can use for recreation. The on-ground pathway links the courtyard parks leading to the overlook deck that people of all ages, both pedestrians and cyclists, can use to explore the landscape.

每个区块都被设想为一个单独的水系统。在这个系统中，一系列可持续水管理的策略，应用水的流 动、净化和收集。在强降雨期间，每个街区所产生的多余雨水需排入外部的排水系统。每个区块之间 有两层水连通性:连接其中四个块体(5,6,7,8)的运河;以及高架移动平台。该平台不单是人流系统的其中 一个元素，同时也可以排水。平台高度的变化可用来创造“漂浮的河流”——沿着平台运行的生态洼地， 可同时达到净化和流动。雨水可以通过连接在支撑柱上的落水管直接流到地面。
杭州钱塘新区云帆社区城市设计深化
Each block is conceived as an individual water system, in which a range of strategies for sustainable water management, described in the previous page, are applied to the movement,cleaning and collection of water. Excess stormwater generated in each block needs to be discharged to the external drainage network during intense rainfall events. There are two layers of water connectivity between the blocks: the ground-level canal that connects four of the blocks (5,6,7,8); and the elevated mobility platform. The platform functions primarily for the circulation and movement of people, but it can also serve a similar function for water. Changes in the platform elevation can be leveraged to create ‘floating streams’ – bioretention swales that run along the platform that can simultaneously clean and move water. Stormwater can be directed down to ground level (L1) through downpipes attached to support columns. 扎哈哈迪德建筑事务所

Architectures with Mortise and Tenon structure have already stood for thousands of years in China, withstanding countless disasters. The project is exploring how the traditional craft can be reinterpreted with parametric form, optimization, and manufacture. It’s not only a try of adopting new technologies to traditional buildings, but it could be more like a reborn of the old crafts.
Site Location The project is located in Qingta Hutong, Beijing, near Baita Temple. The project retains the original function, combining with cafe and outdoor gallery in order to provide entertaining space for residents and citizens. The project consists of a single-storey cafe and outdoor stairs, which help to create various space experience. For its extremely limited space, we decide to apply a huge mirror wall to extend the vision boundary. This project is to reinterpret traditional craft with an parametric method, showing the importance of communication between different generations.

** Because of COVID-19, the project was designed and worked online and the site has not been determined. So a “placeholder design strategy” was used to design the logic and workflow of the project to automatically generate the design that fits the site. Moreover, different functions in the parametric definition were created separately but collaborated remotely between different members..

The project is exploring the method of doubly curve surface discretization and strips unrolling as flat panels for the robot fabrication. However because of the COVID-19, the project had to be paused in second prototype stage.
Three Principles in Strips Algorithm
Strips Strategy1 - Genetic Algorithm
1. Geodesic Property a. Arbitrary curve: free twisting stripe not tangent to surface unrolls straight b. Arbitrary curve and developable surface with imposed surface normal: stripe unrolls in curved trajectory. c.Example: Geodesic No.15 curve: stripe is tangent to the surface and unrolls straight.
Example: No.15

** Genetic Algorithm is more likely a bottom up approach that could better fit various of condition and different freeform surface. However, GA takes time to find the “best solution” and have less contribution to the theory behind it.

** There are two types of special corner strips in the prototype, which are both three edges doubly curve surfaces. So the closest developable surfaces (single curve surface) have to be fit as reference surfaces. Type A the Side Corner Strips are trimming the reference suface with projection curves because the corner points are on the reference surface. As for Type B, the End Corner Strips, the corner points are not on the reference surface so that they have to be pulled back to it to rebuild the developable surfaces.

The project is exploring the possibility of adaptable architectures with computational autonomous design in the future. The computer program will calculate the force of each analysis point and communicate with surrounding points, selecting one of the three basic elements for transformation processing, linking as the architectural form.
Site Analysis
Highest Density Area In The World
Kowloon walled city was the most crowded area in the world, containing 50,000 residents within 2.6-hectare borders.
Kowloon walled city is a Chinese military fort originally, then it became an enclave after the New Territories were leased to Britain by China in 1898. The city grew spontaneously, and the population increased dramatically later, containing 50,000 residents within 2.6-hectare borders by 1990, becoming the most crowded area in the world.

Kowloon walled city was not a slum in my opinion. Although the environment was seemingly dirty, chaos and dark compared with outside, the residents would never lose the hope. They produced and worked hard, struggling for a better life. It was harmonious and manageable under the poor condition. Moreover, people considered it a rudiment of the vertical city with well-equipped infrastructures like water supply, public toilet and medical treatment etc. in this community.

Although the Kowloon Walled City was chaotic and dirty seemingly, an increasing number of people considered it the rudiment of the vertical city, which could improve itself spontaneously. To evolve this rudiment, the project is trying to normalize the basic elements of the structure into few forms and create a relationship between these elements and force conditions, making it structurally reasonable and developing continuable. Moreover, the project also considers the functions of this rudiment, providing completive daily life, working chance, and full infrastructure for people as Kowloon City..

[UNDER THE SAME ROOF] Sponge City and Multi-Generation Residence Theme Reconstruction Studio Work Collaborator: Zhihui Li Instructor: Prof. Dr. Cameron Wilson Site Location: Wuhan 2017.4
Inner flooding is a serious problem of Wuhan city, with a super high density of 26,000ppl/km². The project is exploring the methods of reconstruction of old buildings with multi-water management and researching the problem of multi-generation families living under the Chinese population background.
42
Site Analysis Flooded area
Site Flowing area
Computer Simulation of Flooding Situation
The site is located in the city of Wuhan, China, where the climate is rainy. Moreover, the Low-lying terrain and dilapidated drainage facilities increase the situation of water-logging. And the site is in a special location, which is on the boundary of the flooded area and flowing area. So, both absorbing and slowing measures should be taken.
Water Management
[ 四水归堂 ] “Water To The Mid Yard” is a traditional style of architecture in ancient China. From the aspect of Feng shui, water means life as well as money, so it will collect the water into the church, bringing good luck to the people living in.

Family Planning Policy
Elders & Children â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;s Activities
Because of the family planning policy, the only-child parents have to bear more economic pressure, going out for work. Moreover, elder-education is a deep culture in ancient Chinese culture, which shows their status in a big family. Both reasons lead to generation-skipping education.
School Accessibility
According to the research, the elder & children prefer to stay in the public area in the community, doing some activities, but most adults go pass without staying. So, the major users of public spaces should be elders & children.
Requirement & Needs
According to the investigation, there are 4 primary schools near the site, including one of the top schools. Because of the school district policy, most families prefer to live here with their children.
Environmental Condition
From the investigation, the public space in the site is of low quality, which is messy, unorganized, dark, wet and facilities broken. Therefore, few people prefer to stay in these areas, which leads to a lack of communication between the neighbors in this community.
From the research, it can be found that the requirements of children are obviously simpler than elders need. 45
Details & Functions of Frame
3-meter frames are the main traffic road of the site when flooding comes. People can walk or see the view on this frames. Moreover, the area under the 3-meters frames is the main road of the ground floor.
2-meter frames are the main activity area of the public space that most of the activities happen here. It provides the space that meets the eldersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; requirement of square dancing, taking rest, chatting, playing chess and watching chess etc. The concept of the frames comes from the scaffold, which is easy to be installed and removed. These kinds of frames connect by simple nodes so that it is flexible to be combined in different types in special situations. For example, it can be changed to a stand when there is a show in this theatre and dancing space.
A low-lying area gives a sense of safety and serenity, like a 2-meters frame surrounded by 3-meters frames. Therefore, these kinds of areas are designed for taking rest or playing chess as well as chatting, which are peaceful activities.
1-meter frames are in a close scale, which the parents or grandparents can stand on 1-meters frame to keep their children safe playing in the sand pool. Moreover, the 1-meters frames are also the main entrances to the whole frame-system. It helps people to get on the frames.
All the facilities are connected with the frame by special plugs. Therefore, it can be moved to a different mode flexibly depending on usersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; need.
46
3-meter frames and 2-meters frames can combine to a stage system, providing elders with a chance to show their vitality through square dancing, singing or other outdoor activities.
Public Area
The analysis before shows that the main issues are the low-quality public space and water flooding, and the major users are elders and children. So, we designed a kind of frames & nodes, with the concept of scaffold, which is flexible to be moved and changed the combination to different mode, meeting the citizensâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; basic requirements and solving the flooding problems.
There are higher entrance and exit on the south of the site, the altitude of the landscape is 2 meters higher than average. Therefore, when the days flooding comes people in the community can use this entrance through the walkway on the frames.
The water platform that people can touch and play with the water safely when flooding comes, reducing the annoying that flooding takes.
The low-lying frames provide a quiet and safe environment for elders, who like to play chess with their partners. It partly prevents the player from being disturbed.
Open area provides enough space for eldersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; square dancing as a platform. It can also be changed to stands when there is a show in special time. Sand pool surrounded by 1-meter frames with close scale provides an interesting and safe area for children to have fun, under the care of their parents & grandparents.

COMMUNICATION COMMUNICATION
Reason For Exploring New Information Exchange Mode The project is exploring a more efficient information exchange mode that change single-way teaching and learning to a two-way communication. The people of different age communicate equally, blurring the boundaries among generations and family units. Elders are experienced, but they feel lonely and need the audiences to share with, which complement to children who need gaining life experience. So, to some extent, this flat information exchange mode can jump out of the traditional passing loop of knowledge and strengthen its sustainability.

South Facade
Construction Model 1:20
The south facade was inspired by traditional Chinese windows -- Zhizhai Windows (removable windows). There are the same components controlled by the control wheel, forming a wave curve by axle system to control the internal-external environment.
Each component is associated with two of the nearest control wheels. The degree of influence decreases with distance as trigonometric function formula to ensure there is the same collective effect on each component.
