ME...
This is my seventh year in Melbourne and I have recently obtained my Bachelor’s Degree in Environment major in Architecture in the University of Melbourne. As a proactive international student who is super keen for knowledge, I have acquainted myself with a wide range of skills that allow me to blend with the group and I am very excited to apply my knowledge into practice.

STUDIO FIRE ________ 2017, semester 2 connectivity interaction _____________ Rhino AutoCAD
This project focuses on designing for a complex consisting of a library, general learning area and a stadium as an extension to the exisiting campus. Sited in a multi-functional area, the extension is designed to encourage both public and private connectivity by bringing people together. This has driven the basic form of hexagon with the central court which serves as a point of social interaction and three main access points to invite both the public and school students.
repetition hierachy
P R I N C I P L E S The concept is developed based on three basic design principles. Repetition is used to create interconnected cells that enables flexibility in terms of space arrangement. Hierachy is shown by scale of different elements to indicate importance and focus. .

Large span trusses with depth of 1000mm are used to support the concrete roof panels as well as to avoid any columns. A large number of skylights are included to allow more nautral light in which saves energy from artificial lights and make the space more open and welcoming. This allows interaction of interior and exterior, as well as from different levels as the public can easily view the interior from outside and above.

C O N C R E T E T R O O F Concrete roof is purposefully used to contrast with the lightness of the facade. A sense of anti-gravity is created by presenting an illusion of the concrete roof panels being support by the light weight frame and glass which are in fact being held by concrete columns that are set back by one grid on plan. Study areas are arranged in a way that differentiate the space into private sector, circulation and a combination of both which again enourages interaction of users .

Aiming to encourage human-nonhuman relationships the project looks at creating an experience for both species by challenging the stereotypical way for how fishes inhabit the site with an algorithmical approach. The proposal aims at reducing the rapid flow of river thereby to expand the habitat of fish and eventually allows for interaction with humans through the share use of the structure.

In order to figure out the form of the proposed design, we experimented with three different types of nets that are either twisted or bent to create variety of forms. There are three successful outcomes which all address the site to an extent with their curvatures and at the same time create an enclosed space or tunnel which simulates a possible form of a fishway.

Rocks on the river bed are used as reference points in achieving a form that is strongly associated with the site. Each rock is exaggerated using metaball with various threshold and rigidity to obtain the ideal form. The resulted form responds to the ideal tunnel shape achieved in the previous form-finding stage which is closely associated to the curvature of the creek.
O P T I M I Z A T I O N Having achieved the ideal form, we realized it can hardly be lofted to a workable brep for voronoi structure to be applied. We decided to simulate the form in rhino by setting a repeated shape along curve and adjusting the overall form by attracting the shapes to the closest reference points.
set curve and divide into segments of shapes
set points to determine profile by attracting curves to the closest points
gradually adjust points to simulate form
apply voronoi structure intersecting the form
By smoothening and thickening the edges, a more spontaneous form can be achieved. Considering the practicality of fabrication, we decided to step backwards to 2D planes resulted from polylines.
divide edges into polylines
smaller internal profile reducing amount of water through and hitting the rock
Planes are made hollow for water and river species to pass through. The sizes of the internal profiles are determined by the distance from the rocks due to two main reason; firstly the openings at the entry of structure can be made bigger and more inviting, allowing easy access for fish. Secondly, making the internal profiles of planes smaller near the rocks reduce the amount of water through and stop them from hitting on obstacles, which would effectively prevent white-water and slow down velocity of flow.
larger internal profile rapid water flow and hit the rock which leads to white water

Through the 9 days intensive workshop, connections of single element are critically analysed which generate the form. Simply with repetition and slotting of planes, an enclosed space is formed which serves architectural quality and function.

DIGITAL DESIGN & FABRICATION ________ 2016, semester 1 personal space profile and sectioning
This subject focuses on introducing design workflow from digital modelling to the making of physical artefacts exploring the relationship between material and technology. The design for sleeping pod serves two main purposes, ensures personal space and comfort. Inspired by the basic shape of a clown ruffle, it is reshaped for ergonomic and aesthetic. Skin and bone system is applied which implemented profile and sectioning in constructing a skeleton structure for ergonomic and stability, while triangular cushions are used as skin for comfort and flexibility. Sections are laser cut in 2D which are slotted to form a 3D waffle pod. This acts as the main structure which allows the cushions skin to attach to.

Construction Design ________ 2017, semester 1 Axonometric drawing Model _____________ Rhino AutoCAD
This subject articulates and tests the idea of construction as a process requiring cultural and technical choices. It moves from the analysis of specific architectural ideas to arrive at the evaluation and selection of implementation alternatives. Technological underpinnings of architecture are identified and evaluated through drawing and detail model.
