Woven space is a eco bus station that woven by bamboo as flexible material, bamboo is very strong and tenacity, the bus station can absorb impact force from outside through weaving machenizm, besides, the geometry form of it interactive with people, the point is, it's a low waste, and low price and parameterized efficiency product with high flexibility structure.

Then I linked and culled points by the rule I studied and trasnlate from chinese traditional bamboo containers.As you can see I show the process in Grasshopper. Concept from human bones, because bone has to use less material(lighter) but stronger and flexible, thus, if in scale to structure, how to use less material but make stronger - weaving.

Yushan (Jade Mountain) has been treated as the most sacred mountain in Taiwan since the earlier period of the aboriginal era. This sacred mountain has not only become the symbolic spiritual icon of the aboriginal people but also provides the origin of daily resources for local inhabitants' daily living needs. Referring to the respect to Jade Mountain, this design proposal intends to generate design concepts out of the analogy of the Taiwan
Tower with Jade Mountain. Yushan has gained her name due to the fact that it contains lots of Quarts Crystal, which makes the whole mountain look shining all the time. From studying the formation of the Quartz Crystal, three different kinds of substances, Solid, Liquid, and Vapor, are to be discovered and become the core conceptual ideas. On appearance of it, used space of people of solid crystal forms at the e lower level and energy collection off

liquid water as well as vapor wind at the mid and higher levels respectively are to be configured to form this Taiwan Tower Volume symbolise with the process of three states of water condensation. Moreover, the collection of rainwater is through anti-clockrotation of the catchment bags leads wind to increase speed and flow water to bags with more efficiency. In the future, Taiwan Tower can effectively become an important e rresource for providing the local area
with enough drinking water and clean energy of power supply.

It's a mountain bike park design, mountain biking activities is minimum load (including environmental and surface) to natural, and pleasure where it has is crossing fully nature terrain obstacles and some men-made structures . The purpose is give answers for not only develop almost zero machinary energy and electronic power, but also deal with collection, guiding for wind and water, treating suitable for indoor and outdoor environment (temperature), and both have to satisfy useing function of structure for hole mountain biking plan(such as viewing platform, cycle speeding and so on...), useing analysis of Vernacular architectures.

Ideas come from "hot wheel" toys that we used to play when the young, It has toys car and rail, special is, there's machinary motor whth roller as a gate, just put cars on rail, when pass the gate, speed up! go all over the rail and respeed it. Fun! and I just want to use this kind of mechanism. Othewise, I use a unique nature condition of my site - wind power, as research before, wind power at mountain average 2m/s and have more then 9 months blows from north. not yet strong enough, but I use a simple principle to let it more powerful - "wind tunnel", yes, just like wind tunnel test at F1 race, they use this device to testing resistance of car or airplane. Wind will power up when compressed, from bigger entrance to smaller exit, just like window in your house, open smaller one side and bigger another side, you can feel wind blow obviously, so I design a structure, rider can interactive with wind, use wind to speed up when rider pass, special experient!
