How to study Social Relation?
Disturb
Ser
Local Residents
To study social relation and improving social relation with architectural strategy. I start my analysis from a basic or normal social events or states that are currently causing social changes. This changes or status may create conflicts between the different social classes or identities. The changes or status may also be the development of technology or scentific studies that may bring about new living conditions to the society. Then I analysis different groups of people that are related to each other. They may have conflicts of interests, or they may share some characteristics in common, or they may enjoy living together while having different identities. This is my main focus. In addition, as an architect, we cannot only have the vision of a sociologist, we also need to find the spacial problems of the certain site or space. This spacial background may also become the cause of social problems, while social problems can also cause spacial problems. After this, I start to use architectural design strategy to mitigate the problems, such as building buffering zones or parametric algorithms to design a brand new way of living.

Social Activity of Three Kinds of People
Design Strategy
This is a basical analysis of three kinds of people- residents, soldiers and tourists. By analysing their daily routine and their inner conflicts, we know the general social relation between them. And the need to mitigate the conflicts and bring Okinawa back to a normal city is very important.
The design strategy, in short is to enlarge the boundary which was prviously only fences between the inside and the outside. The boundary had solid or void parts, the solid parts are buildings severed as hotels while the void parts is for squares served as a declaration of lacking of different basical living environments. These gaps are divided by the procedure of taking off and landing, as a major activity of the airport.
1. Three kinds of people and their daily routine.

After enlarging the boundary, its sides have different view and social characteristics.The inside and outside are facing different directions, so they will be prefered by different kinds of people. The inside is for military officers while the outside is for tourists and residents.

2. Local Residents off land taking off

The background of the with identity Individual Entrepreneur project was that the famous alumini Lei Jun, who is currently the CEO of XIAOMI ,one of the China's leading corporation of electronic projducts, had donated a huge amount of money for the University's development of Computer Science and its relevant subjects' studies and research. As a result, Wuhan University decided to use the money to build Education, Influence, Activate and the residents. These a high-rise building for enterpreneurs, students Transformation, stimulate with its individual spaces three group of people will share the building and its sharing space. People The site,in Wuhan on the southwest of the campus, is in the ntersection ofArtists the imHistory and Culture Bilbao Effect portant 2nd Ring Road and the Wuluo Road, near the famous of Wuhan V&APaifang Museum Economic Boom Import (Old Gate) of Wuhan University. The section of School of Information is near the site with several most high-tech laboratories. The Optics Valley which is Wuhan's biggest zone of high-tech electronics and laborotories is also near the site. As a result, it has the potential of being the incubator for high-tech star-up companies to open up their career and cooperate with one of the most top ranked universities in China. Our key point of the project is about the activity that three groups of people mainly focus on during their days on the site and concluded the function of the sharing space. Then we decided to separate the standard space and the sharing space to create them a better sharing space for their hobbies or preference. We believe apart from the daily routine, it is more inspiring when you focus on what you really like on spare time, which can help you improve yourselve as much as possible.

Site Context: Chance to reconnect people together
Site Context: Demand for a Mixed use of the site
This project locate in the southwest of Wuhan University, near the main road toward the East lake. There are three different group of people around the site: Students, Local Residents and Employees of High-tech companies. Because of the expansion of Wuhan University, there is little space left for public facilities for all of three groups like gallery and public library. The project of a high-rise building , planned by Wuhan University, is a chance to return space to public and at the same time, reconnect the people around the site.
In recent years, the land development around the site are commercial and business. Those emerging urban functions took the place of the original residential and public space, intensified the contradiction among the urban elites and local residents. Although the government tried to alleviate the problem by providing public facilities in the marginal area of the site, it is not effective.

The construction site is a 48m*48m square after step back 25m from the main road. The planning height of the building is 130m, which is just below the regulation of Wuhan’s government.
The core of the building, different from traditional high-rise buildings, is composed by 6 core functions that can be used by all the three groups of people around the site, forming the atmosphere which can help gather different people together.
The main structure are four mega core truss cores, which lift the first floor and leave an open space on the ground. There are four elevators, one escape staircase and one sightseeing stair inside the cores
Floor and waffle structure
Sub-structure
Final construction
Three giant waffle floor connect directly to the four truss cores, works as structure layer of the building and symbolize the start of different theme of the layers above.
Huge truss stand on the structure floors works as sub structure, helps to support the upper floor. These truss are on the outer skin, give the building a sense of industrial beauty which suits the characteristic of city Wuhan.
Glass panels are added to the building in the final stage. The open space on the ground floor is 1.5m under the ground, protect people from the main road and concentrate the eye sight of people on the building.

History and Culture Bilbao Effect Due to the fourth industry revolution, the city is changing from the labor of Wuhan V&A Museum Economic Boom Import intensive city to a more complex and creative city which the original working office are no longer suitable for young entrepreneurs. According to their desperate needs for face to face meetings which will promote their career. As most of the young entrepreneur's career are creative industry or finalcial industry. The working offices have also been changing through years as well as the way of working. People nowadays enjoy more active smooth and autonomous work. As the technology has been so developed for communication and coorperation. For young entrepeneurs, the living conditions is also very poor, as they may only afford renting housing in a large distance in peripheral areas which may waste them a large amount of time on the way to work. In this case, the co-living housing with sharing and customized places for working and living is extremely important. In this project, I focus on how to customize all the people's needs as swarm intelligence. People may wants to share different things or spaces, while other people prefer more private and peaceful life. That's why mass customization is needed. By using parametric design skills in Grasshopper, we find the swarm's forming process and its stable phase. According to the phase, we create sharing spaces and individual cells for everone.

Procedure of parametric Self-organization
The type of office and ways of working has been changing due to the technology and the method of management. Nowadays, the mass production of standard and dull working space has made woking conditions not very satisfying for young entrepreneurs. They need customized space to live and work, while spending reletively less money on living expenses.

In this experiment, we try to find a most stable self-organization model. The people who differ in characteristics and preference (which will influence each other) in the swarm are regarded as points to track and analyse their movement. We captured the movement of a point and make it into a line. The more red the line is, the faster the point moves. As the gragh becomes mainly blue, it means that the points has reached a stable phase while some points still move or leave their previous group to join a new one.
32
As a result, they tend to gather together as a group. The group also have characteristics and preference that are able to influence the groups around them (push away or pull nearer). This movement will in return cause the individuals to change thier characteristics and preference which will lead to their leaving of the previous group and their joing in another group. That individuals influence the group and the group in return influence the individual is tend to have a balanced stage which is what we are looking for in 2D & 3D.

Site: Wuhan, China Instructor: Penny Lewis, Dian Zhang, Cameron Wilson, Ting Xu Individual Work, 2018 Winter
After reaching the stage of basic living needs, the people in China are seeking the satisfactory inside their mind. One way to reach this goal is to focus on art. That is why we find it important to build this museum. The aim of this museum project is to analyse whether using a world famous brand of musuem in a city and its influence. It is also a examination and test for figuring out the shape of art and the shape of the culture. In this case, I will start will a simple shape to explore the simple form and the combinations. By analysing Bilbao’s Guggenheim museum and its effects after being built, it will be helpful for applying this strategy of introducing a world famous brand into a developing city. In addition, much like Bilbao, Wuhan used to be a indutrial city with many abandoned factories. Now it is rewarded the City of Creativity just like Bilbao. It has the potential to be brought up by a mature Museum Brand with its help. The V&A Musuem is one of the most famous british museums which was formed for working classes. Now it is the world’s leading museum of art and design, housing a permanent collection of over 2.3 million objects that span over 5,000 years of human creativity.
