Writer Institution of American 1366 Massachusetts Avenue Cambridge, MA, USA Instructor: Bruce Abbey
The focus of the studio is to study how to draw an elegant plan through a series of exercises and studying of precedence. The program of the building is a writer institution including varies programs like bookstore, lecture hall, library, office and residence.The site is located at Harvard Square, across from Harvard Yard. It is a connection point between the commercial and academic zone of Harvard University. Transportation on the site is variable and available. T-train station, bus stops, bike racks and parking lots are close to the site. All the factors make this site become a popular area of the neighborhood. Before the project started, an outdoor food court and several vegetation was on the site. My focus of this project is how to preserve the existing public space, P keep the fluid circulation on the site and continue the public space into the building. The intention of the facade is to use it of a metaphor of the preface of the book. From the facade, people on the street can have a vague idea of what kind of programs behind this cover.

Interactive Children Nature Museum Onondaga Lake S y r a c u s e , N Y, U S A Instructor: Joseph Godlewski
The site used to be an industry area since 1788. Because of the flourishing industrial activities during the 19th century, resorts, hotels and recreation park were built around 1870s. However, the heavy industry generated severe pollution that caused the decline and eventually abandon of the area. These historical activities and urban development left traces on the surrounding area. This project focuses on collecting and expressing the traces of historical activities around the site.To reflect the history of industry, the project extracted the spatial, formal and material qualities of historical elements such as bar building, oil tank and salt field to generate the design. The recreation aspect of the site history is used in promoting the education aim of the children museum by creating interactive exhibitions with plant, water and bio-compost. The aim of the museum is to remind people about the damage made by industry, educate children about ecology and help to eliminate pollution, which is a trace of industrial activities, around the site for hundred years.

Los Angeles Shading Park Complex Los Angeles, CA, USA Instructor: Amber Bartosh
The site is located in Los Angeles, across from SCI-ARC. The program of the architecture is an education institution and a public park. By using vision and shading systems, the project regulates people’s circulation in the park complex and differentiate public/ private relationships between programs. The park complex also create a continues circulation from surrounding environment to the entire park with considering SCI-ARC and the China town nearby. Also , The project offers an opportunity to people lives in the city to keep both their vision and feelings from the skyscrapers and busy city life of Los Angeles. In order to capture people’s attention in the park rather than crowded surrounding environment like rail yard, highways and skyscrapers, green wall, small installation and natural features are applied to the project.
