KINDERGARTEN DESIGN School: North China University of Technology Project type: Individual work Skills: 3ds Max, Rhino, SketchUp, CAD, Photoshop Time: 3.2013 - 5.2013 Instructor: Wang Xin zheng Site: Beijing,China The basic idea of this kindergarten is to help children establish a sense of safety in their childhood. Compared with a square -plan classroom, a round-plan classroom is more homogenous and has less sense of direction, thus kids might be treated more equally, which might help kids building their self- confidence at the early stage of their life. The idea of a sense of safety not only designed in the shape of the classroom, but in the courtyard. The part of the yard that encircled by main corridor is kids’ play ground and classrooms, while outside of the main corridor is teacher and managers’ room. In this way, I try to help building up the sense of safety by encircle children in the building.

SORT | TRANSFORMATIVE ARCHITCTURE | FUTURE OF CULTURE Architectual Association DRL, core studio Tutor: Theodore Spyropoulos Time: 2017.1-2018.1 Team: Saenawee Chatameteewong, Heidi Han, Ruilin Yang Role in team: Prototype, Unit animation, Video editing SORT is a research project that speculates the future of culture through the investigation of a ‘building-as-machine’ model – a type of ‘plug-and-play’ model. It explores what the future could mean if our environments could allow for the participation of different multi-influential agents. It questions if a building, its contents, and its occupants could all be active participants – having the ability to navigate through a dynamic infrastructure of decision making and organization. In our proposal for a machine that organizes our world, we envision that intelligent systems of the agents make decisions, and influence the outcome of others. Our building transforms, our objects sort, and our visitors can engage in a dynamic environment where architecture becomes infrastructure. We explore this new model for architecture with computational curational sorting and spatial reconfiguration and transformation through our unit prototype.
