Prologue

Blank space and simplicity, geometric structure rearrangement, light and shadow interlacing, and harmony between nature and space are all features. They leave a breathing space, which is also my expectation.

The vehicle lane in the panorama plaza relieves parking lot congestion, the repeated structure reflects the beauty of order, and leaves the corridor space to the city. The experimental approach in the peace park project demonstrates the appeal of irregularity and destruction. The various form installations connect the balance of the environment and civilization and integrate the river walk into nature.

A Sustainable Resource Sharing Workshop

2022 Winter Semester Studio Project

Professor: Mrs Tomris Tangaz

Tutor: Mr Mingxi Liu

Site: Chelsea Collage, London, SW1P 4JU

Area: 150 meter square

Individual Work

According to interviews with staff at Chelsea school, the school produces many art materials and handmade model waste. A sustainable recycling resource commons allows UAL students to give and purchase goods to reduce waste and offer recyclable alternatives.

Let the square promote student engagement, and use the triangle ring bearing the environmental protection logo as the meeting place. The "material collection area," "exhibition area," and "rest area" in the half-time open space keep activities scattered and action streamlined. In addition, uniform-sized tables and shelves simplify short-term assembly faster, achieving the goal of disassembling at any moment and offering greater comfort and environmental protection for campus activities.

Story Board

What's happened?

I'm about to graduate, and there are a lot of used art suppliers. But I do not want to throw it away.

Don't worry. Chelsea School of Art has a place for sustainable and recycled materials! Many graduates put things here for other students to use for free.

Many art suppliers can be placed here, such as wood, cloth, brushes, acrylic paint, and spray paint ...

There are different area divisions in a limited space, making it easier for people to find what they want.

A workshop can cut the quantity you need in time, making it easier to carry and take them away.

The students display their artworks using waste so that people can understand that waste can be remade into all kinds of exciting works of art.

2022 Spring Semester Studio Project

Professor: Miss Sylwia Poltorak

Tutor: Mr Mingxi Liu

Site: Piccadilly Circus, London, W1D 7NE

Area: 74 meter square

Individual Work

Coca-Cola, which has been associated with advertising for more than 200 years and is located on Picadilly Circus in the heart of London, demonstrates the importance of long-term brand growth in the eyes of consumers.

A dash of the red color brings consumers a burst of freshness and supports the brand's egalitarian and amiable corporate ethos in Piccadilly. The curving window and ladder design innovate while evoking the Picadilly regional character by combining modern and retro components. The selfmade procedure brings a sense of ritual and participation. The area accommodates both public and private social contact simultaneously. The open multimedia ladder offers activities like watching movies and attending seminars. It exemplifies optimum space utilization, enhances dwell time, and diversifies enthusiasts' activities in the retail store.

12 CoCa-Cola Store 02 A Multifunctional Coca-Cola Experience Retail

Time Line

The Coca-Cola Company signed its first agreement with an independent bottling company, allowing the company to buy syrup and produce, bottle, and distribute CocaCola beverages.

Bottling operations began in Canada, Cuba, and Panama, becoming the first three countries outside the United States to bottle Coca-Cola.

Prohibition was officially instituted in the United States in 1920, leading to soda's rise in every drugstore. CocaCola is also growing in popularity.

From a practical standpoint, The Coca-Cola Company can advertise in the most prominent places in central London for nearly two centuries in a row means it is sustainable and stable. However, faced with the audience in London, Coca-Cola's presence is demanded. We want to design Coca-Cola as our customer and the product we sell.

In the beginning, people drank reconstituted CocaCola soda in pharmacies, and each pharmacy had a different bottle. As a result, they are the most commonly used packaging.

The contoured CocaCola bottle was first introduced in 1916 and registered in 1960. The company also introduced the lemonlime drink Sprite in 1961 and its first Diet Coke Tab in 1963.

Coca-cola First Can Design

The company introduced the first bottle made partly from recycled plastic - a significant innovation in the industry at the time.

Coca-Cola Zero, a zerocalorie soft drink with the taste of regular Coca-Cola.

Panorama Plaza

2022 July Personal Work

Tutor: Mr Mingxi Liu

Site: 8A Marina Blvd, Singapore, 018984

Area: 10800 meter square

Individual Work

To support citizens' goals for environmentally friendly transportation, electric vehicle taxes decreased, and sales increased in Singapore. Office workers make up the majority of its electric vehicle users. After a long day at the office, they need to quickly meet demands like dining, shopping, and exercise. However, Singapore's car charging infrastructure is dispersed and unable to satisfy the needs of office workers regularly and swiftly.

With an average driving time of fewer than 10 minutes, panorama plaza is convenient for office buildings nearby. It reduces office workers' time waiting for their electric vehicles to be charged and enhances their quality of life during downtime. While waiting for charging, you can enjoy fast food restaurants, coffee shops, living supermarkets, gyms, tennis courts, sky gardens, and electric vehicle charging services.

Peace Park 04

A War Memorial Theme Park

2022 Autumn Semester Studio Project

Professor: Mr Dragan Pavlovic

Tutor: Mr Mingxi Liu

Site: Hackney Wick, London, E9 5TS

Area:15,178 meter square

Individual Work

The park's theme centers on modern warfare's harm to architectural culture and people's mental health. Though visiting a war memorial might be sad and weighty, after leaving, visitors will eventually forget or fade from the memory of the devastation that the war did to the population.

Creating a park that mirrors war and cherishes peace allows residents and visitors around Hackney Wick to visit anytime during daily activities. Through this intuitive visual effect, visitors will be impressed by the "damage" installations' to convey to viewers how people's hearts and buildings were mangled and left incomplete during the conflict. Furthermore, it influences the locals and visitors in the area to value life and remembrance for the emotions of war victims due to the stark contrast between the natural surroundings and the "damage" effect.

- The green plants are divided into forest and greenfield areas to control noise effectively. A small forest partition provides privacy and noise from the school on the right and aerobics on the left.

- The shape of the ladder form maps the war disputes caused by the over-exploitation of oil in various countries. The observation deck enjoys the view of the river, and the recessed sandstone square provides entertainment for nearby children.
