Personal Statement The radical industrial revolution and global environmental destruction in the past century nurtured a new pursuit of sustainability. To maintain a virtuous cycle of ecology and human society, environmental planning has become the key. I agree with Japanese architect Kisho Kurokawa that "symbiotic thought is the new order of the 21st century" since architecture is the one of the most common medium between human being and nature. As an architect, I appeal to the "Symbiosis with Nature" to advocate designers’ roles in the age of environmental urgency.
CONTENTS
Specifically, I am interested in both theoretical and practical approaches to augment the symbiosis between human, architecture and nature. I hope to continue my research in environmental design and further explore following questions: Firstly, I assume in the near future, overwhelmed by AI and internet of things, people would have even stronger desire for “poetic dwelling” than ever. On one hand, the rapid urbanization and massive constructions have caused irreversible damage to nature. On the other hand, oftentimes Modernism takes anti-natural postures that interrupt the natural formation and evolving process of local buildings and urban fabrics. Thus it is necessary for architects to re-emphasize the nature, culture and history with regional context in order to address the poetic architecture. As a result, environmental and natural design strategy plays an increasingly significant role in augmenting such poetry for the more urbanized and digital world. Secondly, how do we realize the symbiosis at the architecture scale? Japanese architect Tadao Ando raised the concept of "natural symbiosis" based on low-tech strategy and dissolving architecture to the context and nature. By revisiting his seminal projects and based on my research, I expanded his concept from two perspectives. (1)Low-tech strategy is essentially a sustainable approach. Through simulations in grasshopper in Rhino, I found that oftentimes simple and natural construction process also lead to energy efficiency. I advocate for buildings whose materials are local and suitable for the climate, and whose architectural layout respond to the topography. Such strategy can blur the boundary between artificial and natural environment, and bring back the vibe of nature to its users. (2) Dissolve the building into the context to minimize impact of buildings on the environment. Take Tado Ando’ Benesse Art Museum as an example. Located near the national park, more than half of the building volume was buried in order to avoid too much disturbance to the surrounding environment. Lastly, how can we achieve the dynamic symbiosis between cities and nature universally? I believe at large scale the infrastructures can be better programmed to provide resilience for cities while supporting vivid urban and ecology experiences. Similar to what advocated by the landscape urbanism, the nature could have been more tangible even in the highly dense city. To sum up, I believe that the idea of symbiosis in the sense of architecture is to solve urban survival and environmental problems, and to seek symbiosis between architecture and nature. The ultimate goal is to create a sustainable life for human beings.

“The delta and the city will continue to present threats to each other due to a lack of both recognition of natural hydrological processes and the indigenous and traditional knowledge of living in concert with natural cycles of wet and dry seasons.”(Thaitakoo & McGrath, 2010) Four government agencies, including the Provisional Cabinet and City Hall, have all been accused of rushing to undertake large-scale riverside reconstruction projects without properly studying their environmental impacts and sharing i nform ati on w i th affec ted s tak ehol ders . The peopl e of B angk ok s ay that pouring concrete walkways along the river is ugly, wrongly conceived, and does not take into account the impact on the community and the environment. Therefore, the design attempts to redefine the elastic boundary between the land and water along the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok through innovative design suggestions, driven by the need to reduce and adapt to floods and subsidence, taking into account the local community and the environment. It provides a fragmented solution to transform the currently inaccessible river boundary into an accessible and attractive public infrastructure through the urban renewal process. In order to protect the city, the government built a flood wall along the Chao Phraya River. Even during the 2011 floods, this wall has been playing an important role in protecting the city’s banks from flood damage. However, the flood wall not only prevents flooding, but also cuts off the connection between the urban river bank and the river. In addition, as the ground subsides and sea levels rise, higher flood walls may need to be built. Therefore, there is an urgent need to rebuild the riverfront to protect Bangkok’s "water city" characteristics and meet the demand for more public spaces due to the increase in population density in the area.

Amphibian Identity of Bangkok
Flood Walls: Protection or Isolation?
Bangkok was once known as the “Venice of the East”. Bangkok maintained closed relationship with river and khlongs which were vital for transportation and trade. However, the traditional amphibian identity of Bangkok is disappearing because land subsidence and flooding.
In order to protect the city, the flood wall has been constructed along the Chao Phraya riverfront by the government. This w al l has been pl ay i ng a s i g n i f i c a n t ro l e i n p ro t e c t i n g t h e c i t y ri v e rf ro n t f ro m f l o o d d a ma g e , e v e n d u ri n g t h e 2 0 11 f l o o d . However, the flood wall not only prevents the flood, but also cuts off the connection between the city riverfront and the river.
Vibrant Water Transportation System 19th Century The city of Bangkok lies in the low alluvial and delta plain, where small man-made canals (khlong) split off from the main river serving as the main method of transportation as well as to irrigate the region’s rice paddies. Village houses are built on river levels or any other area elevated above the level of countryside subject to flood.
Flood Walls Under Construction
Flood Wall’s Increasing Height
Urbanization and Modernization On Land 20th Century The city rapidly grew in the post-war period as a result of United States developmental aid and government-sponsored investment. Shophouses, roads construction and the introduction of cars have shifted the focus of urban development from the river to the land.
Flood Walls Isolate People From River
Flood Walls Lead to Spacial Inequality

A Hard Boundary: Flood Walls and Embankment 2007-2018 The river banks of the Chao Phraya, despite having protection walls, are some of the areas under biggest threat and usually the most affected areas during flooding episodes. This is affecting not only an important amount of high value heritage, but also one of the areas of the city with the highest contribution to the local economy.

Design Concept——Widen The Edges
Site Plan
As the boundary between the city and the river, the river bank is an important object to reflect the connection between the two. This boundary should not only be used as a resilient infrastructure but as a public infrastructure to enhance the quality of the city. By “widening” the river edges in all aspects, it will eventually reconnect with the city and the river.
01 Cut Select segments of the flood walls along the Chao Phraya river for interventions. These fragmented interventions are carried out simultaneously with urban renewal process the old towns on the riverfront.
02 Insert Insert urban infrastructure as a part of the resilient infrastructure. The combination of a classic engineered infrastructural element with desirable social functions of each community can produce protection at the same time.
03 Soften Soften the river edges by catalyzed the existing parks, green lands along the riverbanks and reactivating the khlongs which permeate into the city center. This will provide more room for the river to absorb and mitigate the flood as well as maintain the ecosystem.
04 Connect In most of the areas of the riverbank there is a lack of accessibility. Connecting the riverbank to the city is the foundation for reviving the river bank. Connection between the terminal and the road will help relieve the pressure on the regional land traffic.
05 Widened “Widening” will enhance the riverfront in multiple aspects, such as higher water resilience, more public spaces, better ecological system, connection between land transportation and waterway, higher economic value, tourism and commercial attraction.

02 [TRIPLE RIVERS] To reproduce Liwan River and improve the fragmented distribution of the chaotic buildings along Liwan Chung 2018 Winter Scut Design Studio Instructor: Jing Wang Individual Academic Work
VS
Site:Liwan, Guangzhou, China The development of a city is closely related to the environment. In different historical periods, the urban environment and buildings have different functions. With the changes in social and economic conditions, some functions or environments that no longer adapt to the development of the times gradually recede. But this is also the beginning of memory. When fragmented personal memory rises to collective memory, a complete urban memory is formed. The design process of this scheme is the process of sorting out and reappearing urban memories. Bring the architecture and the city back to the past in memory where nature and the natural environment coexist harmoniously. Based on this, this plan adopts the methods of recreating rivers, reconstructing buildings, sorting out local culture and studying the development of historical buildings to redesign and plan the Liwan River area. Realize the resurrection of historical rivers and connect the historical and cultural relics along the line. At the same time, the urban public space nodes are added to close the relationship between people and natural rivers, and different traffic routes are established to allow people to visit the area and have an immersive feeling. Examining "nature" through architecture and urban design can deepen people's understanding, deepen the reflection and supervision of individuals and organizations on their own behavior and experience, so as to make the "human-nature relationship" more harmonious.

Urban Fragmentation
Guangzhou River Development
Liwan District of Guangzhou City is an old district. Since the end of Qing Dynasty, many famous historical Lingnan buildings have been built especially on both sides of the original Liwan River. However, with the development of the times, the population of Guangzhou has increased dramatically. Some historical buildings have been replaced or even destroyed by industrial plants and self-built houses. The Liwan River was also buried and turned into a road. The only remaining historic buildings and their old sites are scattered in the area.
Guangzhou was born and prospered because of water. With the development of the city, the use of the Guangzhou River is constantly changing, and it has long been used to reflect the social and economic development at that time. With the development of cities and the increase in population, the functions of rivers such as commerce and transportation have gradually weakened. Most of the rivers have been buried into construction land and roads, and the memory of the rivers has gradually weakened.

With the expansion of Guangzhou's urban area, the urban population has gradually increased, and both sides of rivers and streams have become a gathering place for vegetable farmers and civilians. The residents cut down the trees along the river to build houses. In addition, with the development of modern industry, river pollution, water quality continued to deteriorate, and the relationship between river and people gradually alienated.

Design Concept
Through urban design, the original Liwan River was restored and the fragmentation and disorder on both sides of the river was changed. Connect historical, cultural, sports and other urban public buildings and facilities distributed along the river. At the same time, it will restore the traffic function of Liwan River, sort out the pedestrian system and bicycle system, and make the city more efficient and convenient.
The main modes of transportation near river include motor vehicle lanes, walking lanes, biking lanes, and boat lanes. The scale of motor vehicles is not suitable for the riverside space. An underground parking lot is set up to park motor vehicles underground, and the public space is connected with the clues of cycling, walking, and boating.

By combining three different clues of cycling, walking, and boating with the buildings on the site, different parts of different buildings are made public. At the same time, the three clues are combined with the external space of the city to form a variety of external public spaces. Form a complete urban space system of the internal public space of the building--public transportation--the external public space of the city.

03 [FLYING DREAM HOUSE] Experience center designed for Guangzhou Pinxiu Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. 2019 Professional Work 2019-2020 6TH CHINA REAL ESTATE & DESIGN AWARD, MERIT AWARD Team(Main Members): Mingzheng Li, Rui Zhang, Yuang Du, Yuxiang Huang, Weizhe Su Role: Preliminary Research 50%, Conceptual Design 60%, Design deepening 70%, Diagrams 70%, Construction 20%, Presentation 20% Site: Guangzhou, Guangdong, China
Guangzhou is one of the fastest growing cities in China. The high-rise buildings here have risen in the past ten years. It is difficult for people living in cities to identify the environment they live in. High-density cities keep people indoors and separate them from the ex ternal env i ronment through w i ndow s and walls. So, how can people find an opportunity to have a dialogue with the environment in a bustling city? Or how to find the "fairy tale world" in a city? "Flying Dream House" cleverly combines the three elements of flying saucer, white house and forest, which are very fairy-tale colors, to create a fairy-tale dream world. Visitors enter from the side of the forest, pass through the ring of trees, and they can see the flying house hidden in the center of the forest. Several white slopetopped huts are placed on the circular flying saucers that seem to be taking off. , Visitors can enter the core display space on the second floor through escalators or circular ramps. There are high and low slopes, skylights that draw the changing sky into the room, a mysterious mezzanine on the bar, and a slide that children can be crazy about. Everything here is created for the people in the city a fairy tale world.

Lost Forest in the City
Demand Analysis
As cities expand, forests in cities are disappearing and are being replaced by roads and buildings. The design of architecture aims to answer the following questions: Can architecture coexist with nature? In this busy and noisy city, do people need a place to relax to feel their hearts and nature?
Different groups in the study area have different needs for space types, basic facilities, community functions, and building functions in the area. Through research, it is found that the buildings, roads and infrastructure in the study area basically meet the needs of the people, but the planned green space for leisure and entertainment and public buildings that can provide public activities, communication and entertainment are relatively lacking.

Project Generation Analysis
Project Comparison Different number of sloping roofs, different combinations of sloping roofs, and different roof divisions will all have an impact on the indoor space, thereby forming indoor spaces of different sizes and functions.
01 The Former State of The Site In the past, the surrounding area was excavated and leveled into land for warehouses, factories and residential buildings. The natural surface has been destroyed. Only a small piece of forest is kept. Large unit

02 Insert the Building Volume Into the Forest Insert the building volume in the middle of the forest.
03 Adjust the Ground Floor and Roof Form The first floor of the building adopts the form of wide top and narrow bottom to minimize damage to the original surface of the forest and make the main two-story building feel "floating". The roof adopts the traditional sloping roof form. On the one hand, it responds to the oriental "family style" and makes the building more intimate; on the other hand, the sloping roof is conducive to indoor lighting.

04 Division and Combination of Roof Multiple sloping roofs can divide the internal space on the one hand, and on the other hand it is beneficial to introduce more natural light.
Only one large unit and two combined small units are used to form the roof. Advantages: The overall facade form of the building and the division of indoor space are relatively simple Disadvantages: 1. The facade is not rich enough. 2. T he boundar y of eac h func ti onal s pac e corresponding to the indoor and the roof is not obvious, so the indoor function is single and uninteresting. 0 5 10

Site Plan
The roof consists of three large units, two combined small units and four independent small units, and the splicing direction of the small units is changed. Advantages: 1. Convenient construction. 2. Enrich the facade. 3. The sloping roofs of different sizes correspond to different sizes of indoor spaces, which enrich the indoor functions, and the corresponding structural columns will not make the interior appear messy and frustrating.
The roof is composed of one large unit, three combined small units and fifteen independent small units, and the splicing direction of the small units is changed. Advantages: rich facade Disadvantages: 1.Too many small units cause construction difficulties, while too few large units cause insufficient depth perception of the indoor space. 2.The structural column net corresponding to the roof separates the room very tediously and chaotically, making it difficult to form a large space, and the utilization rate of small spaces is not high. 17

The wind can pass through the whole cabin and it is well ventilated. In summer, the indoor temperature can be lowered and the use of air conditioning systems can be reduced. At the same time, in Guangzhou, which is also very warm in winter, a good ventilation system can bring people closer to nature, and the indoors are not airtight.
Heating in winter Sunlight from the roof skylight and glass curtain wall can increase the indoor temperature in winter and reduce the use of air conditioning systems.

ESCALATOR Rainwater collection and recycling Collect, clean and recycle rainwater and use it for irrigation and water feature configuration. Most of the rainwater is collected and filtered during the process of flowing from the sloping roof of the building to the lower floors through rainwater pipes. The filtered water is enough to keep the plants irrigated all day.

04 [GEOLOGICAL MUSEUM] Geological museum designed for Guizhou showing the unique geological characteristics of Guizhou 2017 Spring SCUT Design Studio Instructor: Guoguang Wang Individual Academic Work Site: Guizhou, China Guizhou is a colorful and peculiar place, with diverse ethnic groups and diverse cultures, and its natural landscape is even more inexplicable. I found that it is impossible and should not use a single geometric shape or space to directly express the theme of the geological museum. Therefore, I decided to try to think about and explore the logic behind the beauty of form: "water and air" are the reasons for the formation of landforms; the diversity of landforms appears in the two dimensions of "ground and underground". I decided to give up starting from a single geomorphic form and instead use the logic behind the geological form to lead the project design. Obviously, the external form of the building is not the goal I pursued but is only the result of the design logic. I hope that the museum is a container that can hold more representative features of Guizhou's geological and landforms and reflect the logic of formation of the landforms. Therefore, the overall concept of "Nine elements outside and nine elements inside" has been developed. At the same time, the simplest square is used as the basic geometric structural unit, and then the planning layout and overall volume of the building are controlled according to factors such as land use characteristics, traffic analysis, and functional requirements. I focused the design on the internal space of the building. The space should not only carry exhibits and services, but can also narrate specific stories and emotions to visitors, so that visitors can get the richest real experience. I extracted interesting spatial units or form fragments from classic cases representing Guizhou geology and assigned them to different exhibition halls, so that they have their own themes and emotions, and then cleverly spliced these ​​ spaces together, so that the exhibits and spatial narratives represent the uniqueness of Guizhou Geological stories, and allow the audience to experience the peace, happiness, calm, and uplift of emotions as the space changes.

Site Analysis
Model Refinement I read the pictures and image materials of Guizhou, and selected the landform space I like to make simple models, and then integrated these units into a spatial prototype Library in different ways and logic.
