Re-claiming Amsterdam Rotterdam Theatrical Space Space Elevator 2030 - 2130 Towards A New Spirit: Floating China Wetland Museum Zhenda Xizhen Masterplan

RE-CLAIMING AMSTERDAM 2010-11 / Amsterdam, NL Graduation Thesis Reflection upon the contemporary development of Amsterdam.

If the current mode of production in Amsterdam is based on the creating of meaningless images (or what Guy Debord called the spectacles) at the cost of ordinary people’s wellbeing, in order to make further profits, can we turn these images into something useful and beautiful, something consumed by people? Can we again claim the city back for the people from the empty images?

THEATRICAL SPACE Spring 2010 / Rotterdam, NL Conceptual Design

The design explores the possiblity to record our daily experience of the physical environment beyond our human body and to develop it correspondently into a building.

The final result, ‘the theatrical space’, therefore, indicates not only the function of the space but the way how architecture and the space it contains communicate with people.

A series of program and space study have been conducted over the exhibition circulation and its spatial qualtiy.

The strucutre and landscape have been carefully studied with collaboration of the consultant engineers and landscape technicians to realize the special roofscape.
