YEARBOOK 2020


Hindsight... It's really difficult to describe this year, Tragic, dramatic, historical, pandemic, loss of many lives, loss of many great souls… This is 2020, the end of the second decade, January to December— unbelievable things happened, the loss of Kobe, Black Panther, Maradona… and millions of lives, justice for equality, the strive for higher moral standards… Hopefully, the faith and the hope never fades as humanity is one. For me, this year is the year of self discovery and resilience. Classes got cancelled, a new virtual life forming... Ma vie et Liverpool n'est plus, deux ans à revivre . Put on more weight… But no matter what happened, we are moving forward. Chinese people showed great faith and perseverance in fighting with COVID, People are fighting for equal rights, The new period of America policy, COVID vaccine is ready for testing… For myself, My year 2 in Architecture, a dream start in my future career, Elyn and me has been together for more than 22 months, I got my driving license, Received a full scholarship, The people I love and the people who love me are safe… Stay hungry, stay foolish, and carry on with the faith of a new tomorrow.

Growing Nest n the previous site analysis, I've II think pointed out the two problems which is vital. The height difference between the bridge and the sunken plaza, and the needs of students. Therefore my building should provide at least two functions.

One is the transportation node and another is the student’s center, which the main characteristics of two are circulation and home, respectively. To materialize these features, I got the element of path and nest. So path as nest became my concept. Here the nest not only has the meaning of physical, the appearance, but also has mental meaning. So introducing the growing nest.I name it in a name which is in progress. Because the the visitors are students are young adult, they can grow up in it. Also, I want the project can be self-renewal. Can involve biology into the building and become sustainable building. About the design process. I changed the shape of the site by reducing the height of some parts and create some ladders. Then use spiral pathway to connect the bridge and the sunken plaza. Later, I did the same to the landscape. Connected the site and the main building in a very dynamic way. The reason for this is because of the circulation of the people. Just like the circulation of water or air. These all formed in a very fluent way. People get together and then separated. Just like a swirl. The facade comes from the bird nest. And finally I create some courtyard

between the path to create some gardens and I continue to add greens to the main building. Here is a plan for my building. And also the sections. As u can see I want the eventual outcome to become a building of green. And journey to the nest. In this presentation I explore the way to the project to two routes. One is from the are the symbol of future. south and another is east, by the bank. In my building the function areas are module. Sperated and can be closed Here you can see clear the functions in needed. At the same time, as you. inside my building. All by the side of Can see the north bank of. The canal is full of greening but our site doesn’t the path. The light condition in the building is an important element. Just . So I wanted to bring the green back like IM Pei’s let the light design. So in to the south side. Also, I wanted to consider some ventilation function, the journey panel I emphasized the drainage or sunlight. Cus as for I’ve light conditions. broken the boundaries of the inside And this is the second route. From the and the outside. The chance for equp bank to the top, to the open air cafe. AC is impossible. So I hope I can use some cold or hot reaction to achieve the good living condition. I also like to discuss some some design process. The shape comes To end my presentation, I’d like to from the nest. And what interesting share my methodology of develop the is that there are usually eggs in the nest. The nest protect them. As they design. Usually there are sketched,

activities.

In Phase 1, ‘The Valley’ is a guest house located in the Suzhou old town. The project reflects the traditional Suzhou pitched roof and alley systems by creating an ‘Old Town Valley’ with asymmetrical pitched roofs. The project is aimed to reconnect the relationships of the local and visitors, and create the in-between social space. Also, the roofs of the building are walkable for people to get deliveries by drones and other

In Phase 2, ‘The Roof’ is the reinterpretation of the asymmetrical pitched roofs in Phase 1. This project is a residential complex, locates at the bank of the great canal. This time, I decided to completely redesign the use of the roof and its identity. Roof is no longer just the protection of inhabitants from the outside: it is the platform where people lives; it is the structure which support itself, it is the new community system in the

future. The Roof looks like a mountain growing up from the ground. It also relates to another main essence of the Suzhou —the water town. The Roof project can collect the rain water and reuse it by cleaning and excreting to the canal, water the roof garden and create waterscape in the building. People can see how water is collected and transformed by the roofs and finally to the ground.

ur site is buried deep down in O the crowded old town center. It is only hundreds away from the

main road, yet it is a lovely quiet and peaceful place. Because the site is at the middle of the Fulongzhong Xiang, it has some distance from the busy city life. In here what people can feel more are the slow pace Suzhou life and gentle breeze. During the site visit, we found that despite of us there are only elder people who either sit or walk slowly in the street, without a hurry. Fulongzhong Xiang is quite narrow, but vehicles and e-bikes are also driving on this street. One the one hand the narrow street has cause some difficulties to the residents, but it also formed a culture of courtliness in the neighborhood. Our site is surrounded by some traditional houses and some middle height residential buildings. Due to the residential buildings, the views from the site are not very open and far away.

uzhou old town is famous S for its pitched roof, which certainly formed a style and

the characteristic of Gusu. The reason of the largely used pitched roof is due to the drainage. Pitched roof can help the house get rid of the water and prevent it from damage. In addition, the orientation of the traditional courtyard houses are normally quiet rigid, the shape of the roof and the direction of the roof ridges usually are the same. So for my type 1, I want to create an asymmetrical pitched roof by shifting the angel of the roof ridge. This changes will not affect too much of the spaces of the interior, but can create a totally different looks of the Suzhou roofscape. For a renovated guest house, I believe the move of borrow something from the old and combine it with modern design can achieve an unique and interesting interaction.

Phase 1 Project

The Valley 2035: Drone delivery I believe that in the year 2035, the delivery tasks can handled by drones. Especially in the old town where the road is narrow and the traffic is busy. For the guest house I designed a plate where people can easily get their ordered. This visual illustrated a vision that in the future the sky will full of busy drones. They will busily fly above the old town to ship the ordered.

Courtyard for old and new, guests and locals New social node for the old town uring the site visit, we found that the site has a D large amount of elder population. And the number will keep increasing for decades. Therefore, it is quiet

important to connect the old and new. Use this spot as a node for connection of different generations. Also, it can be a node for the guests and locals, for people who lives here for travel, the get in touch with the local can increase the travel experience. My motion graphic tells a story of a day in my guest house. From the morning when they arrived, to they order food through drones at noon, and have party in the courtyard in the evening. The idea is to show the relationship between this building and the neighbors. It will not be a private guest house, but a center of the neighborhood. Where the young and the old can come to have fun also. My second type is reguarding of the design of the facade. Through out Chinese folk houses, there are almost one common issue which is the lack of light. Traditional folk houses are tend to build small openings. Perforated walls can be a way to deal with this condition. In addition, with the help of parametric design, it can make the wall more dynamic.

Phase 2 Project

The Roof Exploration of the cluster residential housing in 2050 he Phase 2 site is located at the T bottom edge of the Gusu old town, beside the Great Canal. As a

site, it connects the old town and the new town and also in between two canals. To consider the possible functions of the upcoming building, the characteristics of Suzhou need to be uncovered. The concept of the building will be directed by an initial urban strategy. Suzhou as a wellknown old town city, it is famous for its dual grid of streets and canals. Back to Yuan Dynasty, Suzhou was called ‘Venice of the East’ by Marco Polo. For my building, I want to wake up people’s memories of water activities and to serve as a tourist residential

center. As a travel city, Suzhou does not fully utilize its potentials of becoming a water city compares to Venice, Amsterdam and Paris. My initial idea is to use this tourist building or a series of them to enhance the use of water and to revival the canal grid. People will love to sit, walk and play with the water. Water stage, floating platforms can also appear. Just to test the Phase 2 site with the original Phase 1 model. To see the scale of the site and the possible combination of the guest houses to form a community. In this model, the idea of ‘stand on other people’s roof’ is what I want to emphasize. In Phase 1 I chose roof and brick walls as my

typology. In the Phase 2 I want to use roofs as a basic element for repeat. With the idea of roofs as layers in mind, I firstly started the research of the different looks of traditional Chinese buildings. The picture on the right is taken in Yunnan, China. From this you can see the layering of the roofs can form a look of of mountains. Pitched roofs are large used because of the heavy rain in this area. If we find out a way to use the roof and turn the pitched roofs into some playground, the feeling of running on the top of the roof can possibly have the feeling of running in hills of mountains.

Cubism was aim to explore things in different angle. At 1920s, Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso showed to the whole world their vision of explode the natural three dimensional way of viewing things. For cubism painting, we can always see the uncertainty and chaos. The item it described is no longer the how it looks like in the real world. In my project, I want to repeat this kind of chaos and create a space which has the combination of parallel and intersection. Crafts Museum of China designed by Kengo Kuma is a good example of using tiles and intersect roofs. The way Kengo interact with the material is innovative and worth learning.

ONCE UPON A TIME IN HUAQIANGBEI Trying to uncover the forgotten stories of the city peaking for Shenzhen, one place S will always be mentioned, the Huangqiangbei. Dating back to the

early 1980s, with the development of the technology, the electronic market of China started to grow. At that time, Huangqianbei is the most important electronics marketplace, even be considered to be ‘China’s Silicon Valley’. During the most booming period of Huangqiangbei, every electronic component in China came from here. It gradually became Asia's largest distribution center for electronic products. The flourishing development of electronics brought lots of people and business to in. My parents were one of those people to move to the Huangqiangbei at the late 1990s. At the beginning of the 2000s, Huangqiangbei not only was the center of electronic market, but also the most bustling commercial street in southeast China. The factory buildings in the past gradually turned into department stores.

The Gusu Micro Museum expects to explore the possibility/unknown of the future state of the ancient city from multiple perspectives and senses when building the physical space of the space-time bridge under the traditional culture, and to shape each person's physical perception of the Gusu cultural system.

ode 5 is located at the northeast edge of the ancient city, the front N intersection space between Cangjie and Weidao Temple, and a large residential area to the west. Compared with the center of the historic district, there is less pedestrian flow. The street public space is relatively indifferent due to the lack of commercial office use. We hope to face up to the marginal situation of the venue, use its own cultural nature to inject vitality from the content of life, and hope that people will stimulate new vitality in the venue and cultural exchanges. The well platform space designed to conform to the site is intended to create the concept of "Recalling Water—Water Well Museum", replay the role of ancient water wells, establish a substantial relationship between people and well culture and revitalize the area. The design builds a roof structure on the original well platform space. The inclined cut corners and the extension of the edges draw lessons from the traditional Su's eaves. The light fulcrum touches the ground while building a gray space connected to it, presenting a dynamic and open posture. The façade of the building is staggered with hollowed-out texts related to the well culture, which brings a natural and misty light and shadow effect to the space. The internal led screen and VR technology use dynamic digital content to present Suzhou water well culture and enhance the atmosphere and interest of the space. The museum will display Gusu’s long-standing well culture. There used to be more than 20,000 wells in the ancient city, but now only a few hundred are left. The disappearance of the well marks the change and development of this city, and also symbolizes the change of people's lifestyle. We hope to show the audience the evolution of the well through the led screen. Through the use of VR equipment, it gives people an immersive viewing experience. Let them go back to the wells in Suzhou 40 or 50 years ago and feel the different ways people used the wells at that time. The structure of the Well Museum embodies a design idea of ​​suspension and light weight. By adopting the cantilever structure design on the back, there is no force supporting structure on the front of the museum, only one corner touches the ground like a dragonfly. The extensive use of aluminum panels in the museum not only makes the structure lighter and more flexible, but also reflects the scene of the old city of Suzhou, allowing the new materials to perfectly blend with the impression of Gusu. The cantilever structure behind the museum is a "sandwich" structure of steel frame-old wall-concrete wall, which allows us to firmly fix the new museum on the basis of maximizing the original wall structure of Suzhou.

31-year-old Dyson was already Ilivesnthe1978, father of three children. The family in a dusty farmhouse with a dilapidated

Hoover vacuum cleaner. One day, this vacuum cleaner broke down, and Dyson, who likes to study, decided to repair it himself. After disassembling the vacuum cleaner, he found that what he encountered was a simple problem that had not been solved since the vacuum cleaner came out in 1908: when the dust bag was filled with dirt, it would block the air inlet and cut off the suction. In the beginning, Dyson developed hundreds of models without success. For someone else, perhaps he would have given up halfway. But Dyson did not. He was determined and never gave up. Even if he was burdened with a highinterest bank loan, Dyson took 5 years to develop 5127 models and invented a double cyclone vacuum cleaner that does not require a dust bag. , Triggered a revolution in the vacuum cleaner market. The idea of ​​dual cyclones is inspired by another invention. Dyson also encountered the same problem in the workshop that produced the "ball wheel" trolley invented by himselfthe filter in the air duct was often blocked by various plastic particles. A colleague suggested that he install an industrial vacuum cleaner to remove these particles. In order to save 134,000 US dollars, Dyson built one himself: He welded a cone with a diameter of 9 meters with a steel plate, and used a fan to suck the plastic particles. inside. Plastic particles are thrown to one side under the action of centrifugal force, and clean air enters the air duct on the other side. The effect of this device was very good. Dyson used the same method to make a small set and installed it in a Hoover brand vacuum cleaner. Since then, no air holes have been blocked.

1983, Dyson produced his first prototype Iverynvacuum cleaner. This pink product with a postmodern color was named "G-Force". Since then, Dyson began to look for partners in the UK and Europe. However, unexpected difficulties emerged. Since the production and sales of dust bags were not a small industry in Europe at the time, it had an output value of 1 billion pounds. Driven by market interests, people in the industry have chosen to maintain the status quo and stay away from Dyson's new inventions. Dyson could not find a collaborator. His company was once close to bankruptcy.

But Dyson regards never giving up as a life creed. In 1985, he brought vacuum cleaner products to Japan, looking for partners, but he did not expect the double cyclone vacuum cleaner to be unexpectedly welcomed in Japan. In 1986, Japan began to sell G-Force. In 1991, this invention won the Grand Prize of the International Design Expo held in Japan. In Japan, owning a G-Force has become a symbol of the status of the rich. n 1993, Dyson opened a research and I development center and factory in the UK, and Dyson vacuum cleaners began

to quickly occupy the British market. Today, Dyson’s company has become an international home appliance design and manufacturing company, with products sold in 37 countries around the world, and more than 90% of the company’s revenue comes from vacuum cleaners. For innovation, Dyson employs 1,200 scientists and engineers. In March last year, Dyson’s company launched a new generation of spherical vacuum cleaner TheBall as a replacement product for dual cyclone vacuum cleaners, for which Dyson invested 50 million pounds in scientific research funds.
