RULE A-1 The width of circulation is 2m. RULE A-2 The circulation goes internal or external RULE A-3 The circulation should provide entrance to each unit.
In order to create different width and length of the street and mediate with standardization in high rise construction, we come up with a grid system to specify and define the space. The grid limit the communal space to 2m, 2.5m, 5m which we think is the reasonable scale of a village. After the second last project, we regulate the scale to only 2m and the circulation only goes indoor and outdoor. The grid system can also be used in indoor space which will be further elaborated later.
RULE B PUBLIC PROGRAM

RULE B-1 Public program is the joint of adjacent compound. RULE B-2 Public program is connected by circulation.

shop
Party room
study room
RULE B-3 The way circulation goes through the public program is determined by the publicity and location of the public program.
Public program as joints of compounds and each compound has equal accessibility to the public program. The circulation connects all the public programs together. We define public program as knot or pausing moment of the circulation as the program merges into the linear circulation. How circulation penetrate through the public program is decided by the public program’s publicity. For example, for more public program like shop, the circulation goes through it all the way, for program like party, the circulation spirals up and the space itself become more communal as people has to go through it before going into their own room. For program that requires quietness like reading room, it is isolated from circulation. So we use public program as the generator of the whole building according to its publicity and location.

For unit type, instead of using the whole flat as basic unit, we use room as basic module. The grid system create different scale of rooms which can accommodate different programs. For instance, the larger module (4.5m*4.5m) is used as living room, middle-sized module(3m*4.5m) is used as bedroom, smallsized module (2m*4.5m) is used as kitchen or toilet. Things gets more complicated when the design is pushed forward, so we added more possibilities of programs and the program is allocated according to the flat’s entrance, its relationship with circulation and its distance to service core. Because of the shape of circulation, pitched-roof space is generated and it is a double height living room.

MASSING
Core at the corner
Circulation
Enlarging certain area for better liviging quality
Emphasised on Pitched- roof living room
STRUCTURE
The main structure of the building is two cores and two load-bearing walls. Circulation space can also act as “tie beam” of the building. The “u”shape cross section entures stable structure performance. The beam is supported by load-bearing wall and core, while poviding support for the u-shape circulation at the same time.
