Profile
Qualifications
After studying architecture in Sydney, Melbourne, and Delft, Obtaining my Masters degree with a nomination for the Best Graduate Project of the year, I gained solid experience in Australia, working with award winning firms such as PTW and Studio 505, where I have had many opportunities to work on both local and overseas developments.
+ Bachelor of Design in Architecture
Those projects include residential and retail in Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane, mix-use development in Vietnam, and the UAE, and resort centres in Korea and China. After graduation, I wanted to play an active part in the vast scale urban transformation China is experiencing, so I moved to Beijing and joined the global leading architecture firm Aedas, where I worked for 18 months. My experience in China has been highly rewarding. I joined an international team working on large scale commercial projects. The often complex design brief, high pressure environment and tight deadlines have trained me to be innovative and highly efficient. I also was trusted to manage several projects, client communication, and contract administration, which can be very challenging in China. My skillset spans from master planning, architectural design, interior design, and documentation, through to project management and marketing assistance. I bring attention to detail to all aspects of my work in addition to working well in a collaborative team environment.

PERSONAL PROJECTS
- A hybrid project of modern structure and traditional city spaces, the vernacular lifestyle survives with in a densified urban cube. -
The project begins with a criticizing position on projects currently happening in Chengdu as the decision makers addiction to the ubiquitous mixed use high rise type. Chengdu is building a completely new city centre at the south edge of the existing city centre, this development is named Century City. The entire existing urban fabric has been removed to make place to the new. Is Chengdu going to be another duplication of Beijing or Shanghai after this fierce urbanization? The project tries to answer one urban question :How can we bring together the essence of the unique Chengdunese life style and a model of centralized organisation? So that vernacular culture survives within a large scale and highly densified new urban environment. The project focuses on exploring the interactions between outdoor spaces and how the different programs are driven by the connection between them. It aims to introduce a new typology that cultivates differences allowing the coexistence of multiple types through hybridization and develops a strategy for maximizing the intensity between local, metropolitan and global conditions.

In order to make the project not just a generic mixed use building, all the programs need to interact with each other. This interface increases the potential link between activities by making them spatially and functionally interdependent. The interface spaces in this project are original spaces from the existing city fabric, which are the most characteristic spaces in Chengdu famous life style. They are proven to work well under the climate and cultural conditions, people are familiar with them and they are part of the city’s lifestyle.

- Different urban conditions are intentionally created and divided, then they are all connected again by a public library in the form of a bridge. -

To improve the connectivity of the site and a sense of space, the new hybrid building maximized its service area to Wibautstraat by placing a long line of recreational programs occupying the street frontage. This line of restaurants, bars and retail shops together with the monumental building and plaza alone Wibautstraat form a formal urban space, while there’s a huge area of landscaped park behind them to give a suburban and natural space to the surrounded residential areas.

The proposal intends to extend beyond the linear north-south connection to Wibautstraat, and create a new connection across the street, from the western side where the Amstel River lies, to the eastern residential area. The new library is in a form of bridge, connecting the park and the river side, providing an elevated connection over the wall of buildings and traffics. The library bridge will be an urban boulevard itself, with public realm on the planted roof top where people can walk across anytime without entering the functional level within the bridge. The library is a boulevard of books with an open plan. Programs of art displaying, multimedia interaction and cafes will be injected into the plan to drive circulation.

- I call architecture frozen music. J.W von Goethe The undulations of the Mountains and the meandering of the river guides the conceptual arrangement of the design elements. To celebrate the Taiwanese pop music culture and to further integrate the musical element into the Taipei Pop Music Centre, six iconic singers were selected from Taiwanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pop music history to represent the six live houses in the design. We digitally mapped each sound wave, the most characteristic beat of each tune is highlighted in red which serves as the base for the design.
The beat cells excerpt of each songâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sound wave is digitally stretched, and each wave is lofted with other cells to form the basic undulating framework of the landscape skin. The landscape skin is a multi- faceted element of the design, which encapsulates the site and the design as a whole. It is a floor and a roof; a decorative and utilitarian element; and a physical and conceptual representation of the Taiwanese pop music culture. After testing a series of loft, the conceptual technique produced numerous forms. After rationalizing the patterning across the site, we found this wave to best fit within the site and its context in a powerful and aesthetic way.

The outdoor performance space aims to have a dual purpose in providing a large outdoor space to cater for up to 16000 people for large concerts and festivals and to provide and sizable urban green space. The back of house support is positioned next to the Chunghwa Telecommunication Equipment Machine room and is serviced via the Nangang Road, the concept is to have large screen either side of the stage with the indoor auditorium providing a large quantity of the amenities required, although additional accommodation can be located in the back of house building. The concept design of the live house is based on visibility and creating a unique atmosphere to play and listen to music. The stage can obviously viewed from within the venue but by providing an open able glass façade to the back of the stage we introduce the idea of a two way stage. This also give the public an insight to the various performances happening within the live houses. By shifting the support services to one side of the building and bar/ cafÊ to the other side this creates arms of amenities surrounding a small public plaza, ideal for generating contained atmosphere before after and during performances.
