MUSEUM OF CONTEMPORARY ART Using Glowing Box to Program the Space
Objectives The city of San Francisco is proposing a new museum at site in the Embarcadero area. The museum is intended to complement San Francisco’s cultural infrastructure by providing a new forum for presenting contemporary art in a broad international context. Museum’s concept inspires from the glowing mass, which is lifted above from the ground to highlight the contemporary theme for the museum. From the experience of program design, the museum exhibition is controlled by the one way escalator to the top and travels down from the spiral stairs or elevators. The intention of design is to make the tourists to explore the second floor, including the working offices and restoration area of museum staffs without interference.

ESPRIT MUNICIPAL RECREATION PARK Curvature Roof to Define the Sustainable Ventilation
Objectives San Francisco’s Parks and Recreation Department currently has nine public pools in various neighborhoods throughout the city. This project proposes a tenth facility, located in the developing Dogpatch neighborhood. The curved roof is the central element of the design, which creates the unique and repetitive tectonic language to the aquatic space, and the openings allow the sustainable ventilation as well as natural light. Roofs also create a nice space underneath, which the public are welcome to visit and the major programs are sunken into the ground to create a nice concept section from the early design. The design goal approaches the crowd to join the building in variety of entrances.

LIVING ARTIST STUDIOS Grid Box Design with Operable Roof
Objectives Living Artist Studio is a set of studios, for artists to gather and share passions while working at the studio; the site is located at the Havelock pedestrian path across the Interstate 280 in San Francisco, which delivers the new experience of artists to design their workspaces. Each studio has operable roof and sliding floor to integrate with different types of artists. The studio is randomly inserted into a grid design, where artists desire to work and it becomes a customization work place for both artists and pedestrians to interact their interests into an astonishing neighborhood between Balboa Park and Sunnyside.

SOMA RESIDENTIAL HOUSE Wall Section Studies with Grid Envelope
Objectives The Building Design is to show the understanding of wall section, its related elevation and partial floor plan, key details, provide a significant portion of a complete description of a building’s design. The task is to design a wall system for a three-story building with a flat roof and parapet and the wall will be the south-facing street facade of a small building on a typical San Francisco mid-block lot, 25’ wide with adjacent buildings left and right abutting the building. The grid facade design serves as a shelter for the users, and a sustainable ventilation to utilize the daylighting into the interior space.
