mple blocks. However, unlike Cerda's expectation, the buildings inside the modate the increasing number of people. Barcelona is such a dense city e small patio enclosed by layers of buildings become a “public space�
to create a series of patios for the city to breathe. Located in Les Glories, gh. As a new city park and public space, this project aims to reveal this nd patios by vegetation - inverse the experience between building patio and same time, we use topography and vegetation as our major strategies to of natural patios to the citizens.

Closer distance, lower porosity and suspended height will form smaller spaces, and these diverse spaces can be used by people with varying body height and size. Pre-school children who need to be taken care of by their parents can use the safer spaces with gentle slope, long distance and high porosity which provide them with easy accessibility. Curious school-age children will enjoy navigating. Adding proper obstacles and producing more complex spaces, like intersection small spaces, enable them to improve cognitive and behavior abilities. For those teenagers, who chase for cooperation and competition, the path provides more intricate spaces.

PUBLIC SPACE DESIGN - DANCE IN THE SKY DESIGN SARDANA DANCING SHOW The Sardana is a traditional Spanish dance which is danced in a circle while holding hands, and is native to the Spanish region of Catalonia. The site is located in Avinguda Diagonal, which is overwhelmed by cars. We need to design a new public space for SARDANA dancing. Taking advantage of the circular geometry, this project creates platforms with different height. The raised stages allow people to "dance in the sky" and have a fantastic view of the Mediterrainean Sea.

ATLAS OF CONSUME Introduction Module I seeks to unpack the Central Valley through simultaneous research, mapping, and modeling, then finish a refined print publication that synthesizes the research and mapping through different lenses, such as socio-cultural lenses, economic lenses and ecological lenses. The atlas should be cohesively designed, and should include a variety of maps, diagrams, and accompanying text.
Manifesto This Atlas of Consume is telling the story of how human being consumes the natural resources and how this consumption produces consumable. We categorize the natural resources into three elements: water, land and energy. After exploring the geography and geology of Central Valley, we zoom into this loop of consuming and producing through the lens of infrastructure, city development, electricity generation, water supply and logistics. Consumption is shaping the landscape of geomorphology through human activities. This single relationship of “consume and being consumed� between human and nature is un-sustainable, which pushes us to think about the possibilities of expanding the relationship. As agriculture being the leading and most profitable industry in Central Valley, it relies heavily on natural water supply, especially groundwater, which is causing the land subsidence and the shrink of natural habitats of wildlife. We are also consuming land to extend human occupation by transforming the original wetlands to farmlands and cities, which demands a large amount of energy. Although the goal of 33% renewable energy is realized in California, a large portion of Central Valley still consumes natural gas more than renewable energy, such as solar power, wind power, etc. There are some questions arising in the process of making this Atlas. How can we improve the efficiency of consuming? Is there any new relationship between human and nature?
Team: Qinmeng Yu, Yangqianqian Hu, Hangxing Liu The "LAND" chapter of the atlas is drawn by Qinmeng Yu.
