Through my internship at a florist I discovered how in florists, people buy plants and bring them to malls, cities, streets and homes, their actions become a natural spread of greenery. I designed an installation to replace the vase in the traditional sense, turning it into a vehicle for plants and an interactive device in the construction of the city, which spreads, combines and dissipates as people need .

As the crowd from the flower market into every street corner of the city, plants as a medium and carrier, with people's communication, trade and dissemination dispersed. From an urban perspective, there is no longer a need for specialized workers to move plants. Everyone can be a transporter and disseminator of plants.

The city has also seen an increase in greenery as a result of the low-carbon greening behaviour of all people, and the presence of plants in the streets and residential areas of the city is a spontaneous act of providing an urban plant environment.

I 3D printed the structure 1:10 in various materials and finally chose resin as the most dominant material, inspired by the camera clips, to design the interface for each structural member.


Plant Evolution

Plant 1:10 Evolution Model Simulation I have created a variety of combinations of structures, as well as a 1:10 site simulation to recreate the scale of the structure in relation to the real site, and also to explore the space for the structure's plant growth and fixation points. The combination of structures is filled with unstructured growth relationships. The need for plant growth in all scenarios and spaces is met.

Buddhism

2021 fall instructor:Zhuchen Liu individual project

Thailand is a country in South East Asia that is plagued by rain and floods. And Thailand is also an excellent Buddhist mecca with a large number of followers and historic Buddhist buildings. My family also believes in Buddhism, and when I read in the news that every year during the rainy season, various buildings that are great for mankind are destroyed, the idea of using plants to protect monks and temples came to me.

The flood problem is a major event that h plagued Thailand's economic developme people's livelihood and cultural heritage i recent years.

2022 fall instructor:Yuechen Liang individual project

The world is facing an increasingly serious heat island effect, and the Arctic glaciers are melting, and the ancient viruses contained in them are slowly entering our field of vision. I conducted research on the existing data and virus characteristics, and selected the most beneficial Protect the most vulnerable city - Tønsvik in Northern Europe, as the first barrier to protect the entire watershed, in which the plants on the coast serve as carriers for absorbing viruses and are gradually closely related to the lives of local residents

2022 fall instructor:Yuechen Liang individual project

Shanghai is a city of 30 million people and the transport roads in the city centre are no longer adequate to meet the needs of today's labourers. High property prices, congested public transport and a lack of green space have put pressure on the average person in this cosmopolitan city. I have designed a collective community to address the various traffic problems and the lack of green space in the city. It allows everyone in the community to have a private garden, a community garden and a central garden.
