It is true then, that almost every 'system as a whole' is generated by a generating system. This axiom contains a remarkable lesson for designers. Man as a designer is concerned with the design and construction of objects which function as wholes. Most of the important properties a city needs to support life, for instance, are holistic properties. Our axiom means this: to ensure the holistic system properties of buildings and cities, we must invent generating systems, whose parts and rules will create the necessary holistic system properties of their own accord. -Systems Generating Systems. Alexander, Christopher

1 Noahscraaper Evolo2015 Honorable Mention | Advisor: WANG Hui Collaborator: Zhonghui Zhu && Zhe Jiang && Zhengyu Qin | Role: Modelling 50%, Rendering 60% Our design transforms the original rigs into vertical bio-habitats, which aims to exert instant response to oil spill, restore damaged eco-system and offer all beings shelter from future disasters. The original rig will become a reactor center, where the spilled oil will be converted into catalyst and building materials, as well as a recreational center and research facility. The structure underwater will be attached to pipes with a floater at the end.

Ecosystem Strategies 1.Short term strategy: absorption of spilled oil When an oil spill incident happens, the floaters at the end of each pipe will immediately absorb the spilled oil covering the surface of the sea as an instant response. 2.Medium term strategy: Habitat for marine life and migrating birds. The collected oil will be transported through the root-like pipes underwater to the central processor attached to the original rig, where the crude oil will be converted into catalyst for coral reef and produce plastic as building material. The catalyst will be transported back to the pipe to booster the growth of coral reef on its surface and the plastic will become the building material of the plastic-twig structure with the help of 3d printing and the injector. In this way, the project will become a habitat for vertical bio-habitat and help revive the biodiversity. 3.Long term strategy: shelter from future disasters Ultimately, when the sea level rises to a disastrous degree, the twig like structure would continue to remain above the sea level. Then the oil rig will become the Noah Oasis.

2 Boiling Theater Bachelor Thesis | Spring 2015 | Advisor: ZHU Wenyi I n d i v i d u a l Wo r k Located at west of Beijing, an abandoned industrial park, Shougang, is eager to rejuvenate. For this purpose I choose a site with four cooling tower for urban design, aiming to create a performance center bringing in tourists. Main stratey adopted in urban design is creating a membrane-structure canopy not only to shelter public space but also resembles the hyperbolic colling tower structure. Inside one of four towers, I designed a professional theater for modern drama.

The building adopted several strategies to satisfy urban design, program, aesthetic, stucture and sustainable requirements. A core tube and steel frame contitute the structure. With service and serve space distinguished, traffic is organized orderly, left ground s p a c e a s pu b l i c . T h e n ew building is detached from exist structure, fulfill an aesthetic quality plus amazing view and desired ventilation. 7

Ge && Xingni Wang && Rui Dai && Yufeng Zhu | Role: Concept 50%, Modelling 80% Origin of this pavilion is to create two almost opposite atmosphere in interior and exterior. We adopted different material and details to achieve this purpWose. For exterior frost polycarbonate panels are used while for interior black reflective aluminate composite panels. A system of wood space frame and a set of similar metal joints are devised to hold interior and exterior panels.

4 Irregular Scissor-Pair Research Training | Advisor: YU Lei & HUANG Weixin I n d i v i d u a l Wo r k Researches on transformable structure are the core problem of kinetic architecture and interactive devices. Scissor-pair structure is a common mechanism of transformable structure. Traditional researches focus on regular shapes, while the new digital paradigms and fabrication methods enable more complicated transformable structures to come into being. Our research proves transformability of irregular shapes in Geometry. For the 2D scenario, scripts and laser-cutting are employed to fabricate the prototype with motor driving it. For the 3D scenario, we use algorithms to optimize goal mesh, and made a 3D-printing hub piece demonstration. This research develops the possibilities of scissor-pair structure, expand it from regular shapes to irregular 2D and 3D shapes.

5 VP3DP Robot Graduate Studio I | Fall 2015 | Advisor: XU Weiguo I n d i v i d u a l Wo r k This is the fabrication section of the studio. In order to make objects generated by multi-agent system, I decide to design a robotic 3DP system with varied property printed. Three stock could be extruded at the same time to make composite material. For example, the mixture of carbon-fiber and PLA have the propertied of both stength and resilience comes from two material. Realtime communication between Arduino and Kuka is employed in this project.
