01 FLOATING LOWLINE Easy Construction for Activating Urban Grey Space
As a material market restructed from housing village, the 1.2 square kilometers Jiuxing wholy possesses the right to build by it self as a conglomerate, and reacts in an unbelievably quick speed at meeting need for the bussiness and residents officially or spontaneously. Can architects spot the situation, and even think earlier, further and deeper? For me, architectural strategies should be changing pertinently with the social condition and other disciplines in the era in which changes happen every day. No sterotypes about either architecture or congnition should be remained in mind. This portfolio is my 6-year efforts of solution providers for GREY SPACE OVER OCUUPIED BY VEHICLES, for NEW WAYS OF HERITAGE TYPOLOGY PRESERVATION, f o r S E N E S C E N T D I S T R I C T, f o r S U S TA I N A B L E M A N U F A C T U R E I N

01 FLOATING LOWLINE -- Easy Construction for Activating Urban Grey Space Program: 5,695 m2 Elevated Road Extension (Shanghai) Fourth Year Studio Work (AR403) Solo work Duration: 9/2015-11/2015 Instructor: Prof. Lin Wang
In the city whose privileged class is efficiency, elevated roads and metro lines are growing recklessly, speeding up the city from the large scale, but tearing apart people's living space for normal life from the small scale. In this struggle, people compromise and adapt ceaselessly. At the end, dozens of streets are robbed from the pedestrians by vehicles. However, there can still be rebels, hoping to reclaim freedom again, and even coexist, both for the efficiency and leisure.

because of the functional change from main commercial street to vital traffic line. The commercial street demolished into individual attractions of new schools and parks along it, which increases the population of grandparents and their children playing around the street, but leaving them a dangerous and depressive environment.
Commercial street
Vital traffic line
Functional separation
STRATEGY To resurgent the street for residents, I intend to recreate a remarkable celestrial pedestrian street which flows under the highway with a light and soft texture and convecience in construction, as both recreational commercial services and pedestrian shortcuts, in contrast to the heavy highway above School Commercial Park
Industry and Office Residence Metro Line and Highway
PROBLEM ----URBAN SEPARATION BY RAIL CORRIDOR AND HIGHWAY Rail corridors and highways are vehicle shortcuts for the areas near the onramps and offramps, meanwhile cutting the majority of where they pass into fragmented islands without interaction. Also, the inhuman scale leads to light deficiency and noise explosure under the elevated bridge, turning the adjacent blocks from opening streets into depressive city backsides.

CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT DIAGRAM
FORM GENERATION
Plan
Section
[ Status quo ] The street is an express road on the bottom, a metro corridor in the middle and a highway on the top. A metro station is built at the crossing. [ Solution ] [1] Elevate the original commercial street from the ground This step enables the pedestrians to reoccupy the street compatible to the vehicle express.
[2] Define functions by circulation analysis The connections of attractions along street determine several circulations, each of which are allocated with suitable functions for different potencial users.
[3] Light structures to create floating sensation Use suspended cable as substructure and double tensile membrane as envelope to create a light floating space to reduce the feeling of depressing under the highway.
[4] Independent structure Place columns on the axis of the existing ones of the highway to let in as much light as possible. Use independent structure to avoid noise from vibration.
[5] Outdoor veranda path Divide the path into indoor ones and outdoor ones which link up each single unit.
[6] Landscaping Plant shrub and grass on the outdoor areas to improve micro-environment (eg. car exhaust, noise) and vitality.
[7] Synthesize Synthesize the circulation system, functional system, structure system and landscaping system, compose our resolution - A FLOATING PEDESTRIAN LOWLINE

02 VERTICAL HERITAGE ---- Multilevel Application for Shikumen ( 石库门 ) Preservation Program: 117.461 m2 Commercial Complex (Shikumen Area, Downtown Shanghai) Fourth Year Studio Work (AR403) Solo Work Time: 11/2015-1/2016 Instructor: Prof. Wenjun Ma
Shikumen ( 石 库 门 ) generates Shanghaineses' character of being open and warmhearted. I credit this to its multilayers between privacy and public-- outer street ( 街 道 ), main Long ( 主 弄 ), SubLong ( 支 弄 ), Atrium ( 天 井 ), and private rooms. The project is a commercial complex in Shanghai which makes use of the Shikumen typology to stratify and interlace public and private program to create new communities and encourage unconcious and spontaneous mutualism. By releasing proper functions to corresponding public layers, the complex can begin to cause gossip culture again that the society chasing for pure efficiency itself avoids. This warmheartedness and intermingling is something a Shikumen can bring back into the culture that discarded it.
6
PROGRAM STUDY There are three main types of people working and living near the site. I studied the pattern of their daily activities and divided their most frequent objectives into four levels from private to public, some of which have the chance to be released to an upper layer.

City ages inevitably no matter how healthy newly designed. To disentangle numerous problems generated, investigation and rigorous thinking are conducted, keys are figured out, spacial intervention are created circularly. Any intervention should challenge the city's original development pattern regarding to its corresponding key. The renewal operations in downtown are so-called TCM Physiotherapy, or careful minimally invasive surgery.

04 TROMBE CHATEAU ---- Local Construction & Materials for Modern Manufacture Program: 6,158 m2 Chateau Design (East Helan Mountain, Ningxia Province, China) 2015 Avantgarde Architects Studio (AR315) Solo Work Time: 3/2015-4/2015 Instructor: Xi Shi
Helan Mountain in Ningxia Province is identified as China's best place to develop wine industry for its primitiveness and its climate, suitable for growing grapes but not economic for wine production. To prevent high energy consumption, chateaus should be sustainable both in ecology and in the ways and materials that meets the traditions and capacities of local construction. The concept is to bring a breath to the chateau. The breath adjusts the chateau's micro environment periodically versus different seasons, day and night, and also brings to the traditional local rammed earth buildings a new form based on a new technology of aerodynamics in a way without complex maintenance.

Botanists tell us that before forest, pioneer flora like lichen and vine occupy and exploit fields. After forest flourish, these pioneers won't disappear but overlap in a more complex form. Likewise, a healthy city is composed of various stratums and types of living. Besides permanent residence, there should also exist changeable ones allowing self-rebuild in a certain frame, which consist the soul of the poor but laborious migratory labor families. These residential lichen will bring diversity, stability, and biomass growth, especially in a city of springboard city in China.
