A new THeory on Housing
The concept of the project is to rethink urban housing socially and differently, not as a large super block but trying to establish a certain hierarchy of individual within family, within community, within larger community within the city. the scale with 400 inhabitants instead of 300 units and break it up into 10 groups of 40 people, using the abstract cube as the initial architectural components to organize the concept. Based on that experimentation was done with different modes of stacking to create connection, circulation, interaction with the ground and framing moments of access and plaza, curates the views and environmental exposure.one simple move for each cube that defines the spatial,formal and social logics and their connectivity or separation..one simple move for each cube that defines the spatial,formal and social logics and their connectivity or separation.

The project seeks to create a space for the emergence of a public center and shaping the cultural identity of the place through providing vibrant public space and program. Through careful treatment of the site and blurring the building with nature, the new gym will provide an environment for public health and community life.

1. Site Our project reimagines the site, situated in an incredible mixture of rural and urban conditions. The existing building is an island, sitting flat on a steep hill, negating its natural context and isolated from the larger sport complex. To integrate architecture and landscape, the project is a series of land operations that smoothens and cuts, lifts and sinks the topographic surface to create a new formal extension to the landscape.
2. Green River The Green River is a three-dimensional ribbon that cuts through the building and defines the relationship between interior and exterior. The Green River operates at multiple scales - at the architectural scale, it links and forms the four entrances at various elevations, doubling as a promenade and a jogging track. At the urban scale, it is a floating green infrastructure that connects the building to the public plaza and the adjacent sports complex.

The building is a layering of program, like an onion. The central volume houses the main multi-purpose gym. The periphery is a ring of open and public programs such as daily sports facilities, lounges and exhibition, optimizing the conditions of space, light and ventilation, while all the storage, retraceable seating, service, circulation and private programs including office and changing room are carefully tucked into a thickened structural belt.

5. Community Life The project seeks to create a space for the emergence of a public center and shaping the cultural identity of the place through providing vibrant public space and program. Through careful treatment of the site and blurring the building with nature, the new gym will hopefully provide an environment for public health and community life.

4. Nature Integration of architecture and landscape adds to the public quality of the building. The building generously incorporates natural elements into the gym. The exterior structural wall is punctured with large openings framing views and vista to the mountainous surrounding and thickened to house various gardens further bringing nature into the building.

Mechanizing Fabric form Mechanizing fabric form work is a study in which Lao Guo and I worked as a team to create a system where fabric form can be controlled to a machine like precision. The task involved creating a Kangaroo script to simulate the form and than translate that into reality through Firefly and WeaveBird. To bring what was in the computer to reality we created a tower that controlled 4 points on the fabric like our simulations. The machine is able to take precise numbers using in kangaroo and translate them to reality giving us the desired shape that was simulated.

Latent Khora Latent Khora is an audio visual installation that tries to explore the idea of representing a space through the sounds it produces. The program that was written using Processing and Max MSP captures sound of the space and creates an abstract representation of that space. Looking back at the drawing one can try to imagine a new space, a space that has some representation of the old one, but is completely new.
