In the book “ The Origin of Species,” Darwin believes that natural selection is the driving force of biological evolution. Individuals who adapt to the environment will survive, and those who do not adapt will be eliminated, which extinctions happens five times already.
The purpose in this design proposal is to imagine a scenario what could still remain what if the human race becomes extinct under some unpredictable reasons and how can we tell the achievement that we had reached or should we give some suggestion for the after life-form?
What is more, after we did some researches of human achievement, we found that species all share similar genetic sequence, which is DNA. In order to survive more than 3 billion years, it changed/ transformed/ evolved to express the various sequence on the Earth. Every DNA sequence has its meaning and represent “cooperation and symbiosis”, which are the key to this competition.

Carbon-neutral Mixed-use Development
This project develops the space that below and above water. It proposes a habitat underwater to addresses the declining salmon population. It offers a mixed-use development above water that addresses the need for localized food production. To further understand how the sensitivity of these connections, the project produces mainly two solutions to minimize the adverse impacts, that is, waterland restoration and self-supplied food system.
Product used: Rhino, SketchUp, AutoCAD, Illustrator, Photoshop, Indesign, Lumion
My part:Research for saving the salmon habitat and provide a healthy food resource for the community. Model for the site, Diagram analysis for the building system
The project encourages the integration of ecological, economic, social, and cultural environments within Vancouver waterfront, which is relevant and applicable to surrounding waterside cities in the nation as well as globally.

What if our spaces could convey information about unspoken feelings and could be the extension of mind and body? How can we create a reciprocal relationship between the human mind, body, and the built environment, allowing them to shape one another?’
Wisteria is an extension of its visitors’ mind and body. It is an emotive intelligent installation that perform real-time responses to people’s emotions, based on biological and neurological data. In this project, visitors can change the color and form of the installation using their brain and emotions. We integrated artificial intelligence (AI), wearable technology, sensory environments, and adaptive architecture to create an emotional bond between a space and its occupants and encourage affective emotional interactions between the two.

The site plays the role of an extension for the colleges district around. However, all the High-level education institution in the north are separate with the south region of the University district, where the site located. The geographic position of the site serves a corridor of the Spokane to connect the students and community in between.
The program tries to provide a medical practicing room for students to gain experience; at the same time, make contribution community better health care. Besides, they can learn the knowledge of editable vegetation, what is guided by communities, knowing how to live with healthy food. Architecture is not a cold living machine but a nest to grown happiness.
Healthcare
1. Divide the site into three main areas for functional needs.
2. Introduce courtyards to optimized the spaces.
3. Adapt circulation as the datum connecting the three courtyards.
4. Vertical design around the three main cores.
5. Place programs around with the circulation.
6.A community center that brings the friendship to the users.

My part:Research. Model. Analysis diagram
Affordable housing is a significant issue in modern society. Our team tried to reduce the economic pressure of users in the future living process through the simple spatial transformation and functional redefinition.
In this environment, the development of the small and midsized Cities are going to the bottleneck, that is, not every citizen can own an amenity space to live, and privileged rights to access to the essential services, like utility fees, education and social platform.
In short, this project is a practical solution solving the settlement catastrophe, which is around three keywords: affordable, adaptive, and involved.
