01 Appletopia Apples form one of the most iconic industries of the Hudson Valley. However, apple orchards have experienced a drastic decrease of 26% in the past 20 years. For the remaining orchards in the valley, two existing models promise economic sustainability: “pick-your-own” farms and hard cider tours. Based on these trends, we propose to build upon the apple industry’s more public aspects, taking advantage of existing infrastructures. Our proposal consists of (a) a series of multifunctional “hubs”, constructing for apple processing and making added value products and providing professional training; (b) an expanded hard cider company allowing the apple picking participates the public in the cider making process; (c) a trail system tying together these two components plus apple follies celebrating the apple culture.

LANDSCAPE INTERVENTIONS: TRAIL The diagram down below shows the idea that seasonal changes can be experienced via this trail. Follies are designed for specific landscape along the trail, they serve as a landmark and provide functional space.
Not only can people experience different scenary along the trail but they can also taste a variety of apples in each folly as a way of learning apple culture.

Cider Co.
ARCHITECTURAL INTERVENTIONS: RENOVATION & HUB The renovation for cider company aims at making hard cider industry more public -facing by introducing a glass shed to seasonably expand its space and also adding functional grids in its room. Potential activities in cider company include cider t o u r, t a p ro o m , m a k e y o u r o w n c i d e r, exhibition and entertainment show.
CIDER RENOVATION
The hub on the right side is constructing for apple processing and making value-added products. It also serves as a tourist center and an education center which provide recreational space , such as lounge, retail, exhibition; and educational space such as classrooms and labs for professional training and researching.

02 A Frozen Moment Of Tang Year: Spring 2016 Site: Xi'an, CN Instructor: Haiqing Chang, Baoju Shen, Yani Fan Collaborator: Jingyi Wang, Lichen Wang, Xinran Li, Lan Yang, Yizhen Wang
This project aims at addressing the issue o f e v e r- i n c r e a s i n g l y d r a s t i c c o n f l i c t s and incompatibility between the rapidly developing modern city and a world cultural heritage within it. The new design would improve the environment and enhance the connection within the heritage garden and its surrounding areas.
In order to exhibit the cultu re of Tang D y n a s t y, t h e n e w d e s i g n o v e r l a y Ta n g Dynasty's city mode with modern city and utilizing this super spatial contrast to introduce new circulations, cultural infrastructure, and public space so as to integrate this cultural heritage with people's daily life.
PROPOSAL The design is based on module unit of 5.4-meter, which was the module in Tang's city pattern. And It opens the access to its south area to connect with existing culture infrastructure and strengthen a potential cultural axis of the city. The Square Wall The new square wall not only serves as a boundary of the old block but it also combines with retail, exhibition, subway station at its north side. While at the south, it is elevated to form a new 8th street, with the space beneath it as a corridor. Zhuque Grand Street An old super wide street has now transformed into a sculpture plaza integrated with exisiting city museum and city life. One Side Street A small retail connection from residence to the core cultural infrastructure. The 8th Street The old transportation space between two block now function as a commericial pedestrian to satisfy local people's needs. And on the top of the commercial is the elevated 8th Street, with small corridor and elevated square wall to provide a different experience of the old city scale and new city scape. Folk Culture Village The existing urban village turns into several folk cultural studios which creates job opportunities and combine with local festivities.

Specifically, two paths are designed to help people understand the site. One is a new Wei Bridge, which provides people with a modern perspective to see the current condition of the historical site; the other one path is located right below the bridge deck, in the “water”, the exhibition of ancient bridge piles enables people to understand the relics from a historical perspective.

This project is a large-scale open space B design which seeks to tie the renovation seamless into the surrounding urban fabric and character. We see the existing lake and the special historical city wall within the park, and commercial and historical streets surrounding the park as key assets to develop this park. Our design is based on these assets and our study of people's behavior. The goal is to transform this park into a truly urban park that not only provides inviting open space and infrastructures to local people all year round but also works as an ecological and sustainable backyard of citizens.

ECOLOGICAL DESIGN Rainwater collection is designed in the p a r k , a n d n a t u r a l s l o p e s a re u s e d i n conjunction with the city walls around Lianhu Lake. Part of the water flow uses surface runoff and a part of it flows into the lower part of the soil. The surface runoff rainwater finally flows into the Lianhu Lake, and then through the infiltration and the aquifer flowing in the soil, eventually flowing into the Danjiang River.
Main Entrance Plaza
The main entrance plaza is paved with permeable surface. The rainwater penetrates through the square masonry and is filtered through the three-layer gravel cushion. The filtered rainwater is recycled through the rainwater collection pipeline.
Flower Garden
Rainwater flows into the flowerbed through natural landing and slope of road. Some rainwater is absorbed by the plant roots and then infiltrated into the bottom layer.
Lake
Parking Lot
The parking lot plaza has a gentle slope and is paved with permeable pavement. Rainwater seeps through the permeable pavement, be filtered to the water-bearing cushion, and then penetrated into the bottom layer.
Flowerbed
The rainwater at commercial entrance plaza flows to the outside through designed slope. The rainwater is absorbed into the bottom layer through the roots of the plant in the flower bed.
Stream
During the rainy season, rainwater is collected through the rainwater collection box on the shore, while keeping the water surface does not exceed the critical value.
Rainwater slowly flows into the shore through the grass slope, and near the shore the terrain has a slower slope. Some of the rainwater is absorbed by the shore plants and filtered into the water.
Hydrophytes
Hygrophytes
Rainwater is absorbed by the shore hydrophytes through the gentle slope. As more rainwater gathering together, it provides a better growth space for the hydrophytes.
The shore of the stream is a gentle slope, and the rainwater is absorbed and filtered by the shore plants and then be infiltrated into the bottom layer.

AED, or automated external defibrillator, is well known for saving people’d life when a suddenly heart arrest happens. It can give the patients electrical shock to evoke the heart beating rhythm. According to the American Red cross statistics, “ Sudden cardiac arrest is among the leading causes of death in the United States. In fact, more than 350,000 people will suffer a cardiac arrest this year. Currently, the only way to restore a regular heart rhythm during cardiac arrest is to use an AED.”

Drinking water fountain is a quite common public infrastructure in NYC. It’s designed to provide all people with clean water. What’s more, it can also shrink the waste bottle problem. However, the sanitarium of these fountains now become a serious issue. Without being cleaned in a specific sequence, there are lots Priority and Locations for the LinkNYC with Drinking Foun of water incrustation rust near fountain mouth. These things do harm users’ health. The number of water fountains in NYC is numerable. Most of them scatter around the city which make the cleaning work even harder. So we want to set new water fountains attached to the kiosks. These new drinking water fountains are not only easily found by the citizens and tourists , but also easily cleaned, which may repair this broken drinking water system in the future.
