For a long time, watching films at the cinema has been becoming one of the most popular ways of entertainment.

It made people begin to be alert to social contact and keep apart from each other. With the advent of digitization, the availability of the Internet and gadgets has created a new content consumption way through online streaming media.

After The Epiemic

With the change of habits over the world, the film-watching space needs to negotiate with the venue and times and changes its layout, so as to adapt to these changes.

The building is located on the Domain, which is in the central part of Sydney, functions as a transition to the various public urban facilities.

Space Negotiations

Driving Viewing Space

Negotiation is a mutually involved act. It is not simply a conflict arising in disputes, but a conversation, negotiation, and compromise under contradictions, so as to achieve a situation of mutual benefit and mutual win. The same is true for space negotiations. We should view a contradiction from different perspectives on both sides. Not only should we analyze and transform it based on the existing space, but also create the new space to generate conservation and respond to the negotiation results.

The Drive-in Theater

It was invented by an American, Jr Richard M. Hollingshead, by virtue of the abandoned chemical plant. The sound was played with loudspeakers to the parking lot in the early period, but it may affect the audio effect due to the barrier of the car body. Later, the practice of regional radio jamming appeared and the customers could listen to the movie on the radio in the car.

There are three entrance of the architecture, through which surrounding buildings such as the Art Gallery of New South Wales can be reached. The entrance of the drive-in theater directly connects with the urban roads, with strong accessibility.

The former cafe is connected to the building, for which the guest can acess to multiple fuctions flexible.

There are three floors of movie-viewing space, conforming to the terrain, among which the first floor and the negative floor is the pedestrian space and the negative second floor is the vehicular space.

Direct upper-and lower-level interactions are formed through the skylights and pools.

It includes pedestrian, dining-room, and open-air ladder movie-watching space. People integrate themselves into the movie as they are walking and moving.

The entrance of drive-in cinemas connects directly to the main city roads. Vehicular passageways and drive-in cinemas form to be two different kinds of movie-watching models.

The building conforms to the height difference of the site, located in the park, and becomes a relatively open community activity place.

The original road streamline is retained and pedestrians can watch the movie when walking, through the volume, to reach the destination.

The drive-in theater, as one kind of space with strong atmosphere, have brought parking space for the surrounding buildings in the narrow cities meanwhile.

Sectional Perspective

The building conforms to the trend of elevation of the south and low in the north. The entrances of the first floor and negative floor are connected outdoors by ramps and sunken squares.

The entrance of the drive-in theater directly connects with the urban roads, with strong accessibility.

The skylight, pool, and building walls use transparent glass material to reduce the existence of the building and integrate the building into the site.

The Community For Refugees Constructed By 3d Print

Tutor: Yuan Lin

Date: Aug.2020 - Nov.2020

Location: Goalpara, Assam, India

Acadamic, Individual Work

Economic and solid houses will be rapidly constructed by 3D printing. In a land that almost has lost opportunities, I think about the possibility of reconstructing the hope and warmth in life.

Goalpara is a administrative district of Assam, India, which is in the southwestern region of the state. It is located about 150km west of Guwahati, in the north of Megalaya and near the common international border of Assam and Bangladesh. Most of the migrants have flooded in here. This area includes extremely fertile land zones in the Bramaputra River floodplain and has semi-montane terrain. The Assam landscape includes hilly tea gardens, the Brahmaputra River, monuments, and temples with mild climate and abundant rainfall. Assam has tea trees all over the mountains and fields and Assam black tea is exported to the world.

The site for the intervention is located in the town of Matia located within Goalpara. The town lies on the banks of the Brahmaputra river, and has a primary agricultural economy. As with Goalpara, the town too is rich in biodiversity and abundant scenic beauty. The ecological sensitivity of the region and soil type proves to be rich ground for experimentation with 3D Printing technology.The first and the largest of atleast eleven more detention camps being built right now is in Matia, nearing completion.

Various news sources have reported about in-human living conditions inside camps and prisons, apart from overcrowding and a lack of resources. Fear and depression among detainees is extremely common owing to an uncertain future. Even with the detention camps in place, dignified living for the detainees remains an unattained target. Home ownership remains the primary concern of a number of detainees whose lives were thrown into the whirlwind following the NPR. If they aren’t deported, their lives shall still remain at a standstill with virtually no work opportunities to rebuild their lives.

India, the world’s largest democracy, is also rapidly becoming the center of having the world’s largest refugee crises. Since 1951, Assam is a border country of India and has been facing this influx impact due to its geographical location and common international borders.

About 1.9 million people now have no nationality without obtaining documents due to names, and misspelling errors. They were housed in the existing camp statewide prison. In addition to overcrowding and lack of resources within the detention camps, fear and depression are extremely prevalent among detainees because of the uncertain future.

Building a refugee community quickly and economically through 3d printing while bringing more opportunities and possibilities for their daily lives, work, hopes to reshape life and bring the dignity and warmth as humans should perceive.

3D-print Low-cost / Rapid Construction

The Community For Refugees

Flexible Combination to Meet Multiple Functions

Four parts of 3d printing modules form a unit, which is freely combined in the field. According to the use need, they can be enclosed to the yards with varying degrees of openness.

Residential Building Institutional Building Open Space Industrial Construction

Four parts of 3d printing modules form a residential unit, which can be freely combined to adapt to group boundaries.

Each unit is same composed of four parts of 3d printing structures. The top is sealed with an inflatable membrane structure to ensure lighting.

The open space is located around the institutional building for local residents to gather and activities.

Plant area on the southwest of the site will be set up. Based on the internal space demand, two 3d printing modules are used.

Door And Window System

The whole doors and windows ensure the unit ventilation and lighting. Through the multi-layer structure superposition and combination, users can more flexibly open or close the space.

3d Printing Unit Structure

Different edge details of the different units make the unit easily combined.

Floor Texture

The 3d printed floor has grooves below, saving materials and free arrangement of water supply pipes.

Rainwater Harvesting system

Glass rainwater collection system is set up in the unit center. Rainwater is filtered for daily use or discharged into the site-distributed ponds. The functional space needing to use water such as washroom and kitchen will be set up around the rainwater collection system.

This region has a clear dry and rainy season. The period from October to March is dry season and the period from April to September is rainy season. In the rainy season, the rainwater collection system will introduce water into ponds and the surrounding watersheds to facilitate drainage. In the dry season, the rainwater collection system will relieve the water shortages.

Rainwater Collection Device

Concrete Structure

Concrete structures can be rapidly constucted via 3D printing, Hollow concrete can save materials and bring better insulation.

The Fast-Constructed Community For Refugees

The community places the assembly area in the center to increase its accessibility . When the traffic flow is small, signs can be set for the traffic flow to detour, forming a circular runway in the periphery of the central area. Plant area set up in the southwest side brings work opportunities to the residents. Residential units shall be arranged at the remaining locations.

The central area of the site is the school, which also carries the functions of community assembly, leisure and entertainment.

The residential units are set up at the remaining locations. The yards with different-degree openness by units enclosure provide rests space of different feeling for the refugees.

Since the main local industry is black tea planting and processing, the main pollution in the processing process is noise, so factories are arranged in the relatively remote southwest side to reduce noise pollution.
