Following the critical trajectory, understanding toward contemporary architecture keep challenging the “modernistic” aesthetic preference that has often “forced” architecture to simplify real environmental challenges, in order to achieve an elegant, clean, and composed formal result.

TALAT NOI TYPOLOGIES Talat Noi is one of the earliest Thai-Chinese community founded in Bangkok alongside the Chao Phraya River. They firstly remarked themself for marine commerce, but later made a huge transition to invest in scrap market business. The rusticated spare parts and all the little detailed components in mechanical vehicle were spread all over the area. The community has adapted and integrated the component as one of their main iconic features, creating a strong sense of junkertown scape in middle of the oldest Chinese neighborhood.

SPATIAL MUTATION The concept of ‘mutation’ has been embeded in Talat Noi community for decades. It is clearly shown in the way how the performances of the urban space has been shifted throughout the year to support different type of ritual serving the people of Talat Noi. The transformation required minimum structural adjustment, but instead the space was enrich through the use of symbolic object use in the ritual. However, these minimal changes in small scale made a powerful impact in urban scale through the increment of space performances, apperance, and economy.

MUTATING THE RIVERFRONT Due to an unorganized treatment of urban typologies and auto parts merchandise, the community could find an obstacle in providing enough area to support the communal activities as in the early days. In response to the issue, an objective is clear to expand the space outward to riverfront once again; providing an extensive space for people to reconnect to the vibe from the past as well as laying strong foundation over the concept of assisting community’s commerce and leisure. The initial approach of an intervention highly inspired by boat shovel, one of the most essential amphibious infrastructure found upon the riversight. The element is separated into two distinct components by the quality of the platform and verticaly structural support element. Therefore, the component adopt an idea of the chain energy in the form of kinetic energy transfer and economic incremental in the riverfront area .

RECOVERING MARINE BIO DIVERSITY Junker Pier is the constitute living structure that emerge the existence of marine ecosystem alongside the river using an effect of galvanization from the nonessential scrap collected from the community. The mutating process is divide into initial phase, development phase, and maturation phase based on the growth of the artificial reef community. In the first few years, the main focus is the process of collecting and transforming the artificial shelter, whereas the outcome will later emerge in the longer time frame.

ADAPTIVE PLATFORM The quality of “adaptation” to different services in specific time-frame throughout the calendar is crucially considered. According to the phenomena transition between the typical day to seasonal event, it’s ultimately important to reach the criteria of operating the transformation of the spatial quality. An idea of modular platform, connected in alternative variation, is highly effective in shaping the space in response to the conversion of the programs. Indeed, reconstruction of the “familiar old” symbolic adapt to distinct criteria of a contemporary condition..

BRANDTOPIA
This project looks into the decision making patterns associated with brand identities and enterprise of Louis Vuitton. In order to define an experimental flagship terrain in the context of innovative companies and the way they might exist and operate in future, the brand is analyzed through series of study covering different aspect of buisiness model; extract and diagram their design logics and implement these logics at the scale of personnel and facility landscapes.
The design embraces the motive of art and craft as reflected through the quality of craftmenship produced in the atelier. Through the extraction of different elements, the truthfulness of the artistry is embed and apply to various architectural components to expand the method to producing a new flagship landscape.

FUTURE EXCHANGES Components unite in one architectural expression and mode of business. Here the exchange is the client visit and as a result arose a very distinct manifestation. The accumulation of components could enable progressive mode of business around a particular set of exchange. New set of materials could strategically apply to the possibility of exchanges. Translucent concrete and glass brick were brought in as a main material as they both could express the truthfulness of crafting which characterized Louis Vuitton among from other brand.

PRODUCT DISPLAY COLUMN The first component was designed to reject traditional method of interaction between the customer and staff. The display method using window display and display shelf were compacted into the form of display column. Made by translucent concrete, is the series of column that conduct the natural light into interior space. Moreover, the component could expand in various arrangement to act as a utility space such as the interactive window display, gallery, or even an exhibition space.

FASHION RUNWAY Glass brick fashion runway is the component that celebrate the identity of Louis Vuitton through transparency of the glass brick. Mainly played with the operation of stacking the modules to form the depth in transparency level. In addition, according to the experiment with acrylic’s surfaces, some of the surfaces of the brick has been engraved in order to control the transparency level and to classify the function in each part of the runway.

INFINITE LANDSCAPE Surrounded by countless rows of towering column, the glass brick runway displaced in the heart functioned as the central program of the flagship. Although other service programs such as the artistry workshop, selling department, or the cafe were placed around the central atrium, the forest of columns still expanded broadly covering the entire site to fabricate the infinite shopping landscape for the customers.

ULTIMATE SHOPPING EXPERIENCE Under the central atrium, the runway wrapped by the glass brick wall create an ultimate experience for Louis Vuitton customer. The transparent glass brick wall break down the border between the spaces where it allows the customer to participate the show from the other side. To represent the concept of translarency in bigger scale, the fabrics were use as a facade; to conceal partial spaces from outside while remaing the gap from the ground to draw a visible connection to outside at the same time.

FOLKROOM
One of the most relevant fields of research connected to housing is, probably, typological research. This field of study has been extremely important to set the standard of living conditions, producing, especially in modern times, the catalogue of unit distributions that we are still widely using today. The project suggests a critical reflection on pre-conceived typologies and functionalist planning, searching for propos-
als that, overcoming the design for fixed and repeatable functions, are able to learn from “pre-modern” experiences. By understanding the methodology, the project observed over Korean vernacular house in various scale; from the scale of room to the scale of aggregated dwellings. Challenging over traditional perception of collective living, could the room’s functional connotation to be able to reconsider its role?

BLOOMING LANTERNS
HANOK HOUSE Hanok is a house which preserved ancient methods of the Korean primitive. It shares a sustainable philosophy through the space organization, materials and construction techniques, as the ancient’s thought persued to harmonized the daily living and habitat with nature. By utilizing the bygone philosophy, “Baesanimsu” positioned the house in relationship to the condition where it is required to ‘facing the water(river/stream) and surrounded by mountains at the back’, resulting in an effiecient and sustainable house where the wind that is ventilated from the mountain into the house, and the house capture enough sunlight by facing the south.
33 34
SPATIAL ORGANIZATION Hanok has very clear seperation of space and program according to the status in the household. Women and men live in separately due to hierarchy system in the ancient time. The ‘sarangchae’ presents as the male living quarters, which located in the front of the building. It is listed to be used as guests reception and scholastic purposes for the male in the family. In opposite, ‘anchae’ represents female living quarters, located in the inner parts. It is the most private and most protected area in the house. Only the permitted person is allowed to entered this quarter. In contrast to the rigid layout, ‘bunhap’,the partitions that could be open, slide, and swing up, maximize the flexibility and adapability for the spaces inside.

BONGUENSA COMMUNITY Bonguensa community is one of the oldest zen-buddhism community in Seoul which carry the traditional zen lifestyle from the past to the contemporary era. Located in the heart of Gangnam district, the contrast between the pace of living become the challenging factor for design of the zen monastic dwelling of the 21st century.

CO-L(IVING)LECTIVE LIVING Though the spaces were crafted around traditional zen practices routine, the boundary of the programs are softly blended to reflect the contemporary mode of co-living idea. As the dwelling focus in the idea of broad openness and multifunctional sharespace, the dwellers intend to engage more in the communal area rather than isolated in private space. The elements adopted from Hanok were developed to maximize its effectiveness and functionality to match modern timeframe. The developed bracket structural system and partitions railing system allow each residential unit to be adjust and expand for maximum utility and flexibility for the dwellers.

UNIT & HIERARCHY Every single unit represents an idea of spatial harmonization originally adopted from the primitive Korean vernacular space organization. In the living quarter at the upper level, the residential units are connected around the square-plan courtyard’s edges to form a smaller collective unit in each sector. Each individual unit could be shift from the inside to perform both private and public program while remaining the presence of original appereance from outside. The orientation of the unit , in relation to the privacy level, also indicate the different classes of hierachy of the monks in the monastic community.

YELLOW DUST For over a decade, yellow dust causes countless problems in South Korea, especially in the nation’s capital. The issue became more and more critical to the citizens, lead to the serious revised from the government sector in responding to the concern. The facade is intentionally designed to be the air-treatment component that capture the emission of pollutes and unwanted dust particle that emitted into the monastery and enhancing overall atmosphere in the space. Steel frame modules assemble to the laminated timber panels coated with the sheet of Hanji paper, taking reference from the crafting of the lotus lantern using in the annual buddhist lantern ceremony, are designed to encounter the environmental issue while retaining the essence of Korean heritage.

ANTHROPOMORPHIC PARAD(E)-ISM
The project investigates designated folkloric, festive moments, focusing on the design of a related celebratory aparatus - congregational buildings, urban interventions, behavioural or infrastructural systems - whose agenda is essentially the representation and the performing of a specific collective identity. Anthropomorphic instances will be crucial for the crafting of timeless architectural languages, at the intersection of
figurativism and abstraction, geometry and materiality. The human body - from primordial intuitive gestures to layered disguises and contemporary induced feelings - will be taken as an allegorical system of measurements, both as a generative tool and a testing ground for spatial production and performances, where aesthetic icons and inhabiting modes coincide.

THE GOLDEN AGE OF SLAVERY During the conquest of the Spanish fleet in the 16th century, the indigeneous of Bolivia was also a target of the oversea colonial. For the labor purpose, numbers of african slaves were traded to Bolivia to assist the native in the cruel labor at the silver mine production. Many were left to death due to the toxic condition from work, which triggered the biggest uprising against the noble class. Without physical weapon, the fight back was being translate in the symbolic media instead.

THE POLITICAL WEAPON “Whose Skin Is This, Anyway?� An African-American dresses as a Plains Indian, as if seen through the lens of Fellini, while Andean natives wear white masks and carry whips, pretending to be colonial overseers. Underneath the cross ethnic skin, the political uprising is hidden. As a counteract to the slavery oppression, Morenada was being brought up as a symbolic tool to fight back against the noble class. Different features seen in the mask and costume conceal the ironic and sarcasm act; despite of the elaborate design .

CRAFTING ‘FORM’ FROM RATIO Unlike the rest of others folkoric dances, Morenada costume looks to be elborated from the outside, but the stictly followed geometric pattern is hidden underneath the fancy skin. Using the ratio in circumstances and relationship in height, the form is crafted following the logic overlay by the curvature connection of a tangent point in different ratio.

SECRET POLITICAL ASSEMBLY Liberal Congress introduces a concept of an intimate congregation realm for political activist in the city of La Paz. The project rejected sincere depiction on architecture, but scrutinized beyond traditional apprehension of architectural representation through irony and sarcasm . To a certain extent, architecture shares a comparable value as a powerful political weapon to bureaucratic propagation. Unlike the rest of the region in the western world, most of the Latin America and the Caribbeans countries was administered under an absolute regime of military government, where the act of liberation could alert a rigorous examination from the government. Due to limited political expression, Liberal Congress provides an optional space for the activist to express their political emancipation while dissimulated from the government’s awareness.

SUBTLE & DELUSIVE Anchored to the cable car pole located in the centre of Mercado 16 de Julio, an assembly mounted on top of the most renowned area in the city of La Paz. The ultimate challenge is to conceal spatial connotation under the series of architectural skins derived from the study of Morenada costume. The subtle layers of delusion was created from the deception in programs and the cautiously harmonization through material and geometry to the context. Above all, ironic features were embedded through different means, as resulted in the scale of architecture element shown in the facade or the misleading function of an ecological infrastructure.

ECOLOGICAL PROGRAMS Martes de Challa is one of the most important ceremony for the native; giving a respect to the mother of earth, people worship by burning symbolic objects to satisfiy the mother of earth. Since the government percieved the the entire space as one large ecological infrastructure, giant air purifier, it is functioned to catch the carbon dioxide from pollution caused from normal activity and religious ritual in the city of La Paz. At the end of the ceremony, the carbon dioxide will be stored in the tank waiting to be condensed to solid using the catalyst. The part of products will then be reuse as a coal for upcoming year ceremony while the rest will be use as an ornamental purpose to decorated the landscape of the building.

Away from the burden of innovation, this project deeply studying Lebbeus Woods’s architectural body of work, understanding methods, priorities and principles behind the choices and decisions and ultimately being capable of thinking just like him. This idea is not something new either. The most traditional learning pedagogies are based on repetition, on learning from the past in order to understand the present.
The design interplay with the essential architectural typology of the pavilion. The pavilion sits somewhere between primitive shelter and sculpture; in this way it can often allow for the very clear expression of ideas, design intent, and serve as testing ground for research goals. It’s identity can be understood as a structure which is programmatically light and privileges it’s origin story over it’s functionality.
05 RECONSTRUCTION
= DESTRUCTION
DECODING WOOD’S PRINCIPLE The objective of this project is to genetically modify the design code and priciple of Lebbeus Woods, the famous paper architect. Known for his insane vision to the deffinition of architecture, the concept of ‘radical reconstruction’ is mainly the core concept of his design. Wood’s ‘radical reconstruction’ principal fostered around the reconstruction of post-war architecture,as he rejected the traditional term restoration but introduced the method to inject entirely new environment to the damaged space as he believed that the process of destruction and reconstruction had already provide a new conditional mode of living.
61 62
THE ART OF DESTRUCTION The concept of ‘radical reconstruction’ was experimented to test the potential of the fragmentation process under in both physical and digital aspect. The aim of this analysis is to observe the basic behavior of 3d geometry under different condition of force, impact, and decay. Using cinema 4d, the cube could simulate the fragmentation in relation to the study of the physical realm.
05 RECONSTRUCTION

THE PATH OF DESTRUCTION Path of destruction demostrates all core principles of Wood in a small scale pavilion whic that archive through the geometric treatment in the space. From a normal rectangular concrete box, the space has been transform through the addition and subtraction of fragmented pieces to achive the spatial experince showing the quality of destruction and decay.

FREE SPACE “Architecture is a political act, by nature. It has to do with the relationhips between people and how they decide to change their conditions of living.” Free Space is the large scale pavilion that maximize the capability of Wood’s ‘radical reconstruction’. The pavillion is introduced as an instrument that challenge the ordinary perception of relationship between user and space. The geometries were aggregated in the most extreme logic in order to test the potential of living and interaction of the user in the context of contrast environment.

Space Saloon is an ‘educational laboratory on the move.’ through a series of collaborative hands-on projects, the group explores the many potentials of a site. the group’s projects foster engagement and build communities through their series of transdisciplinary workshops. Held in the high desert of morongo valley, california, the summer 2018 workshop entitled LANDING is a collaboration between students from SCI-Arc and INDA with a group of international
architects, artists, and engineers. the design-build event encouraged the designers to reveal, harness, and amplify the elements of the site through temporary pavilions. As a part of workshop, students gained experience in a combination of analog and digital surveying methods, environmental sensing technologies, hands-on building tools, and collaborative virtual design devices.

ROME COLLECTIVE LIVING CHALLENGE
Since the Roman Empire, piazza was treated as a public assembly space for gathering, which the practice is still being use in the present day. However, there are smaller piazzas found that it is unlikely to be used by the people. This project proposes new strategy for the collective living in Roman under the co-living lifestyle, the living trend of the modern day.
Co-living is not a connectivity between people in a single building, but it draws a connection in a larger scale. Taking a concept of parasite and host, it shares some similar quality to the method of co-living. An incremental of the community is based on the compromise between existing and new users, where both users will acquire distinct benefits according to negotiation of proximity and privacy.

EURO VELO 6
The Euro Velo6 is one of the most popular routes in Europe for velo tourism, a sustainable and increasingly popular method for cyclists to visit and experience cities and countrysides. There are of course health benefits to this type of tourism for individuals, as well as social and financial benefits for countries that host popular and safe routes, which attract regional and foreign visitors to cities and towns along the trails.
Whether a cyclist has covered 10km or 100km in a day, there are some basic needs he or she will need for a night of shelter, as a place to rest both indoors and outdoors while protected from the elements. The projrct proposed an easy-constructible and space-efficient cabin which are intended as a chain of small and recognisable structures spanning the EV6 and providing cyclists with places to stay overnight, directly alongside the bike route.

In order to adapt to the tropical concept, we took an advantages of the large opening to bring in the cool breeze inside the space as well as a timber cladding as a protection from the heat. The library itself, draws a connection to the surrounding nature through the large opening in the back, framing the view of the forest.
