PROLOGUE
Ever since I graduated from high school and took my first overseas trip in my life, I have been curious and keen to experience the cultures of different countries. This preference became stronger after I entered the university and received an architectural education. I really hoped to go to another country to experience higher dimensional architectural education under different cultures. By participating in an overseas exchange program in 2017, I realized my long-cherished dream since I had entered the university -- to experience architecture education in different cultural backgrounds abroad, thereby increasing my sightseeing and visiting experience.
During the half-month-long exchange program course, I experienced a different curriculum at Hochschule Anhalt than at my university. Simply put, my university pays more attention to rigorous drawing training, design drawing standardization and knowledge inculcation. In the exchange school, under the guidance of professors of different subjects, I experienced courses closer to architectural design's essence, such as sculpture, volume elaboration, model making, and graphic design. The fresh experience of these courses and the breaking of the order of constructing the old knowledge system strengthened my conviction to study abroad.
For me, the process of making this portfolio was a process of relearning myself -- both realizing my shortcomings and discovering my strengths -- although most of them were the former. Moreover, it is a painful but rewarding process of self-transformation.
After watching many excellent portfolio cases, I was horrified to find that I did not have many design works available, and there were many shortcomings and even gaps in design thinking and narrative logic that could not be ignored. Therefore, I had to break the inertia of thinking cultivated in the five years of college, and boldly try and embrace a brand-new design process that I had never encountered before. After experiencing the pain and discomfort at the beginning, I found myself quickly adapting to the new design method. In the design process, I gradually began to pay attention to the humanistic care that had been neglected by me before, and I was willing to find interesting core ideas.
This portfolio is a testament to my personal growth and a gift to myself.

Individual Project
This design comes from one of my course assignments. We were asked to complete a small house design with specific metrics in eight hours. When I saw that the householder was a sculptor, I immediately thought of a case I had seen before - Poli House - a case that I thought fit the character of the sculptor very well both in appearance and in inner space.
Therefore, after 8 hours of brainstorming, I was not satisfied, and made a bold transfer attempt to imitate the characteristics of the reference case.
Apart from the owner's occupation, it is also noticeable that the site is surrounded by other residential buildings in high density, which means privacy would be an issue.
The aim of this design is to liberate the craftmanship from outdated spaces and arrange the necessary procedures in a more reasonable way, and add great ornamental value into the space. Thus, the traditional events find their new home in modern exhibiting space where mutual accomplishments are guaranteed.

Case Study - Poli House
Spatial Processing
OPENINGS
The openings of Poli House makes it look like a cube that had been carved by a sculptor - which in my mind suits the family's character.
SITE
FUNCTIONAL WIDTH
The Poli House moved all irrelevant functions to the far side of the building, forming the space where core functions are surrounded by service functions. The service functions consist of the functional width.
Original Site Conditions
Being The Intersection of Neighboring Sights
The site is located in a relatively dense residential area, the owner is a family of three, the man and the woman are working as art teachers at the university. Due to the high density of residential buildings around the site, the line of sight penetration is relatively serious. The focus of this design is to avoid neighbors' prying behavior, and strive to create a relatively private and quiet home in the chaotic sights.
THE ATRIUM
The atrium makes the space within Poli House even more interesting and excellent. Visitors' views could come across with each other, while the big windows on the walls provide sufficient natural light into the building.
Needs From The Family
Hostess: Ms. XIE
Art teacher in a university, needs a quiet place to rest and do some drawings.
Host: Mr. XIE
A sculptor and the art teacher in an art school. Demanding for a private studio for carving works as well as other creative works. Would invite some artists to his place occasionaly.
Private Car
A parking place should be guaranteed.
Kid: XIE
A student who is about to end his primary school studies. Private needs would grow vastly as he ages.
Conclusion
1. Block irrelevant sights from neighbors. Protect the family's privacy.
2. Individual studio for the host and hostess.
ADJUSTABLE SPACE & ABUNDANT LEVELS
Pezo Von Ellrichshausen aimed at blurring the boundary between public and family, this is the reason why rooms and space had not been named and defined previously. The character changes with owners' activities.
Poli House is rich in its floor levels, it helps visitors differentiate and define all kinds of functions through the edge of floors.

Individual Project
With the rapid urbanization process within decades, many cities in China are now facing the loss of both historical buidlings and cultures which are valuable to the research of the country's history. Meanwhile, the modern entertaining methods are occupying people's attention from looking back to the ways our ancestors lived.
As the urbanization slowed down these years, people began to grow interest in digging out our traditional cultures and products, which mostly lie in the cultural heritage projects, especially the traditional craftmanship - they are indispensable to trace our cultures. It is of great importance to protect traditional craftmanship. However, in the past, the craftmen had to manage their life and work in spaces which rarely considered productive organisations nor ornamental values.
The aim of this design is to liberate the craftmanship from outdated spaces and arrange the necessary procedures in a more reasonable way, and add great ornamental value into the space. Thus, the traditional events find their new home in modern exhibiting space where mutual accomplishments are guaranteed.

Collage Revealing The Phenomenon of Cultural Losing
Urbanization tears down the old buildings where traditional cultures habited in, new forms of media draws people's attention from seeing this. The traditional cultures are now vanishing from us. We are losing what make us unique in the world.
Among all the items need to be preserved, cultural heritages are considered the most representative one, within which contains the information on how our ancestors lived and worked. Through protecting and inheriting, we can bear in mind who we were, and where we are heading to.
For its long history being the capital of this region, Linhai not only owns the remains of Linhai Ancient great Wall, but also contains a lot of famous budism temples - all of these show the abosolute diversity of cultures of Linhai. Besides, it is located in the center of the Taizhou region, collecting inheritage projects from neighboring cities into it would be not hard.
Actually, there are much more than the seleceted five inheritage projects in Taizhou, I chose the five because they have one thing in common, that is their excellent ornamental values! By providing the public with the true ornamental value from the inheritage cultures, there would be more people interested in our traditional cultures and values. Thus, more attention would be paid to protect the five projects, and then our traditional cultures.

The Jie Xiang, which means similarly to alley in English, demonstrates the space between two rows of buildings aside. It is an important character in traditional Chinese towns and cities. Apart from the long and narrow path, public place such as a small square also plays an indispensible role in forming Jie Xiang - the alleys.

Reformation Towards The Roof of Traditional Buildings
Apart from the Jiexiang mentioned above, the triangle-shaped and slightly curved roof is also an indispensable characteristc of regional buildings. By reforming the roof into some sort of landscape architecture, the tradition remains and continues its existence in a new way.
Reformation Of Jiexiang
As mentioned before, the alleys plays an important role in forming the traditional local communities. It is also an element that can be used into the design - not only the composition of streets and squares within the site obeys the rule, but also the placing of each massing of exhibiting units.

Unnamed Exhibition House For the Only Artwork On the Moon
2022 Fall
Duration: 6 Weeks
Context: Academic
Instructor: Jingjun LI
Individual Project
For more than half a century after mankind firstly landed on the Moon, only very few of us know that there is a piece of human artwork - a small sculpture to be more specificis lying on the surface of the Moon. Some would call it "The Fallen Astronaut" as the US government once mentioned it so. But actually it was never seriously named by the artist who made it.
Behind this palm-sized aluminum statue, there hides a very complicated story between the Belgium artist Paul Van Hoeydonck and his artists fellows, NASA, the Apollo 15 mission and the crew. Generally speaking, things had gone high from the beginning and then went all the way down to an end where nobody benefited.
The design work aims at providing a place to memorise this story, asking the question of whether art and artists should be taken seriously, and speaking for the involved artists through spatial languages.
A documentary revealing this event commented the statue as "A statue died on its way to the Moon". For this time, architecture will talk.
[Abuildingthatrevealsaburiedstory.]

Since the success of the Apollo 14 mission, NASA has gained an international reputation and has tended to pull away from its Soviet rival. At the same time, human progress in space exploration coincided with a group of artists exploring the art of space, such as Paul Van Hoeydonck.
Our story begins with a classic film directed by Kubrick, which tells the story of an artist who tries hard to bring his space art into space, only to be forced into a political battle and finally leave the scene.
Through the language of architecture, I hope to recreate the entire story line from the artist's point of view, and encourage visitors to consider the question: Should art and artists be treated with such contempt?
The visitors would encounter with the statue in exact character with the one left on the Moon but in different sizes very frequently, in my personal views, I hope they can understand that the statues and the statues' condition actually matches what PVH was experiencing during these certain periods.
The design site is located in the southwest corner of the Kennedy Space Center launch pad. This area is where the background story of the design takes place. It would be ironic to build a memorial to a story that had a great purpose and an unhappy ending on the very spot where it happened. And that's exactly what I want visitors to experience: to convey my view of the event through satire -that artists deserve basic respect, not to fall prey to the interests of all parties.

1971.06.30 - 3 cosmonauts died in Soyuz 11 mission due to the vacuum accident. A lot of Americans expressed their shock and mourning despite of the competition between USA and USSR.
NASA had paused all working-on programs, starting scrutinzations within in order to prevent the same accident.
Then they considered Alan Shepard's act to play golf on the Moon during Apollo 14 as "bad taste", and then strengthened investigation on the things carried by astronauts.

During the Apollo 15 Mission, the 3 astronauts stayed on the Moon for 3 EARTH DAYS. Their activities were in live stream on TV.
But from the beginning to the end, there was not a single sign for them to place PVH's artwork on the Moon surface as they agreed to before the launch.
Meanwhile in earth - as days passed, PVH was getting more and more anxious, trying to figure out what could have gone wrong...
Detached
It was at the conference that the commander David Scott named the statue as THE FALLEN ASTRONAUT on his OWN WILL, WITHOUT the permission from PVH. PVH found the statue itself had been isolated from the plexi tube, which meant the integrity had been destroyed as well.
NASA prohibited astronauts from telling who is the maker and creator of the statue on the Moon. Not anyone out of the mission knew who had created the statue.

Paved with unprocessed aluminum bars - standing for the unproduced duplicates - the path is the must-cross way for all visitors. Inevitable treadings make sounds and noise, echoing within the large space. Visitors have to bear the phantom pain as PVH once experienced.
When Paul received the letter from Scott telling that a museum wanted a duplicate of the statue, he was too excited to wait any longer, he immediately arranged the massive production with his peers. But NASA somehow caught the plan, and made several threatening calls to stop the production in order to preventing anyone from violating the confidential regulations.
Having experienced all these unfair treatment, PVH decided turn to Walter Cronkite - the most famous and influential reporter in US - for help. Then in 16 April, 1972 - right after the launch of Apollo 16, Paul Van Hoeydonck got interviewed by Cronkite, and finally managed to announce to the world who is the creator of the statue on the Moon. He won his speaking right this time.

Meanwhile, as NASA's review of the Apollo 15 mission got underway, the government uncovered misconduct by the astronauts, including Commander David Scott taking 398 envelopes to the moon without permission and profiting from them. Angry Americans and the media turned on the now-famous PVH and his statue on the moon.
JEALOUSY FROM PEERS
PVH's fame made his peers in america jealous more or less Political
The US government "followed the public opinion" and deported PVH.
The astronauts involved were then permanently excluded from the Apollo missions. Even after PVH had returned to Belgium, he faced a period of estrangement and political persecution. No one ended in decensy at last.

After all this, PVH decided to stop producing and selling all copies. To this day, even PVH does not know exactly how many copies were produced and sold to private buyers.
On a later trip, PVH visited Vesuvius in Italy. There, he threw the only replica of his statue on the Moon into the crater, declaring his farewell to the experience.

2020.05 -2020.06
A group of young friends decided to open a bar on the roof of an abandoned factory building. The goal of this project is to remould the roof site into a hot attraction to the young people in this small county. Budget was strictly limited, clients wanted the place to be mainly industrial style and decorated with plants and leaves.
Having noticed that they had already raised part of the roof ground for about 60 cm, I decided to put most seats on the raised-up platform, and making the relatively sunken place to have higher quality for all kinds of activities.
My friends were really happy to see the outcome of my design work, and immediately started construction based on my original design plan.
The construction was completed at the end of 2020. The bar was then open to the public, the owners finally managed to run their own business.
Thesmallbarcouldn'tsurvivethrough anotherwaveoflock-downregulations,and closed at the mid of 2022. The site was then deconstructed,backtotheground-zero. (Ineverhadthechancetotakeasipwithmy friendsthere,andneverwill.)

If the effect was good, we would not have to spend extra cost to find the rendering studio before reporting to the owner . With that in mind, this is the first project we've ever done on our own to cover all rendrings.
The result turned out surprisingly good, our client was quite satisfied with the outcome - and from that moment on, I was elected as the teacher and lecturer to train all the staff in the company to use Enscape more effectively.
