CIRCULATION

The design fully introduces the greenhouse landscape and farming scenes into the building space as part of the restaurant space plot, rendering an immersive spatial experience and strengthening the spatial theme of integration of planting production and culinary consumption.

The interior of the building makes full use of the change of terrain height to create a variety of viewing platforms that produce a rich sightline relationship with the vegetation, so that visitors can capture the indoor agricultural scenes from the restaurant everywhere during the event.

At the same time, all dining areas and planting areas inside the building are related in various forms, creating a "you in me" visual relationship and bringing visitors closer to the crops, which not only brings visitors a feeling of walking in nature and interacting with plants, but also gives visitors a strong visual immersion of agricultural production.

In addition, the dining route of visitors descends gradually with the terrain, guiding them into the planting area, so that their dining experience is closely integrated with the natural experience and they intuitively experience the pleasure of enjoying locally produced food and dishes from the site.

Access to the dining area is through an elevated corridor with planting areas on both sides and adjacent to the kitchen area where you can see the process from planting to cooking.

The top of the inwardfacing dining block has the most generous view and can be used as an observation deck for the planting area while visitors dine.

The corridor leading to the dining area on the middle level forms an enclosure around a small planting area, creating a relaxing courtyard.

The lower level of the inward-facing dining block is more enclosed and used as a relatively private dining space, with all openings open to the vegetation of the planting area.

Thermal Cycling

The rainwater collection equipment in the building provides water for sprinkler irrigation, and the excess water in the planting area is filtered and gathered into the geothermal energy circulation equipment to provide heat souece for the building, and the cooled water enters the sprinkler irrigation equipment again to become the sprinkler irrigation warer source, thus realizing the water circulation and heat circulation in the building.

The building structure adopts the I-beam frame system as the main structure of the greenhouse, and the rest of inserted blocks area supported by the structual system of the greenhouse pilus the reinforced concrete frame structure, with movable shade cloth on top of the building and windows to achieve good ventilation and energy saving inside the building.

Vibrant Box

Create a vibrant box in Iceland's natural ice landscape as a respite from busy city life and the start of a nature trip throughout Iceland. visitors move from fast to slow, from urban to rural, leaving the consumerism and hedonism of urban life to return to the leisurely life of farming civilization to regain the meaning of life, which is also a way of development of post-modern agriculture.

Living Blue Green Resilient City for a 15-minute Life Loop

HUST Architecture Studio

2022 Summer

Site: Newyork City, USA

Collaborator: Yang Chenze, Wan Wangxi

Role: 40% research, 100% concept design, architecture design, drawings

In today's deteriorating climate, New York, especially the southern coastal region of Coney Island, faces greater threats of flooding and inundation, while these southern areas have lower per capita incomes and poorer living infrastructure than New York's highly developed downtown areas such as Manhattan. Local residents also have to endure long distances of uncomfortable, dangerous walking experiences. Conversely, Coney Island is an area that is well worthy of redesign because of its unique history and beach views and recreational facilities that attract many residents from relatively northern New York to vacation.

Using relatively new urban amenities and technologies, this project hopes to respond to the urban blight that exists on Coney Island, improving the living experience of residents while becoming a more popular resort area.

Mapping Of Southern Brooklyn

Coney Island and the surrounding area in south Brooklyn, New York, has popular parks and historic amusement parks, but there are more urban issues for residents of some areas

Problems Opportunities

Coney Island and the surrounding areas in southern New York have more urban problems, according to statistics, the area will suffer more serious flooding problems after 2050 due to sea level rise, and the travel time between these areas and the subway stations are more than 15 minutes, causing residents inconvenient commuting problems Also within the 15-minute living circle of the site, there are fewer amenities necessary for living. These areas have parks, beaches and other attractions nearby to attract city dwellers as recreational sites.

Based on the site problems and opportunities, three basic solution strategies are proposed

1. Use blue green technology system to establish the water storage and drainage system connecting the north and south shore of Coney Island, in order to solve the urban flooding problem of Coney Island now and even after 2050.

2. Establish a mobility system to build separate bicycle and pedestrian paths, separated from the car paths, to provide a better walking and biking experience.

3. Establish a five-minute living circle to serve the daily life, cultural life and productive life of the residents

Wuhan Old Community Ramp Market

HUST Architecture Studio

2022 Fall

Site: Wuhan, China

Instructor: Chen Hong

Individual Work/ Academic Work

West Lake as the most famous tourist attraction in the historical city of Hangzhou not only has a stunningly beautiful natural scenery, but also no shortage of humanistic landscapes that tell the history and traditional Chinese culture, which attracts countless tourists to come and see, in the process of Hangzhou's rapid development, car lanes, high consumption places, huge size of the neighborhood, so that the beautiful scenery of the ancient city of Jiangnan with small bridges and flowing water has long disappeared. A neighborhood located on the east side of West Lake, near numerous cultural and historical monuments and the most prosperous commercial area by West Lake, is a significant place to restore the historical mark of Hangzhou.

In the ancient city of Jiangnan, which has a well-developed water system, water and bridges are important elements of urban transportation, with "water" being the transportation of goods within the city and bridges mending the fragmentation of the neighborhood caused by waterways. The two together create a unique spatial atmosphere in Jiangnan, China. In the venue, the spatial element of "bridge" is regained to mend the fragmented neighborhoods and to create permeable streets for people to explore, so that people can integrate into them and recover the urban memory and traditional Chinese culture of Hangzhou that has been lost in the consumer society.

Residents gather near the site. Gathering activities include buying food from roadside vendors, spectating and participating in chess activities, drinking tea and chatting at the roadside, etc.

Referring to the traditional market in Wuhan, there are closely arranged stores on both sides of the street, and aisles and shopping areas are formed in the middle of the road.

The ramp is used to cram Wuhan's traditional market model into a relatively small site, forming a continuous three-dimensional shopping flow, while the building volume echoes the surrounding historic buildings, providing an area for visitors to ascend and view the landscape.

Strategy

CIRCULATION The four sets of ramps interspersed in the building form the space for the market and visitors to walk, forming a continuous ascending circulation in the building, while the vertical traffic space formed by two sets of stairs on the east and west sides of

Ramp space connects and interacts with other functional spaces in terms of flow and sight lines

The market in the form of a ramp builds a three-dimensional continuous flow of grocery shopping and also becomes a ramp for tourists to climb and view the scenery, and under the ramp forms a chess space and a reading space for the daily activities of local residents, where a variety of people interact with each other.
