I. Green Pointe Graduate Studio Excellence Award 1st Place High-Rise Design Studio Chicago | Illinois Professor: Paul Armstrong Group Project with Gaby Song & Teng Long
Green Pointe introduces a new concept and typology for highrise buildings by Chicago river walk. Given a challenging site with Gleacher Center, NBC tower, and Sheraton Hotel impeding views on three sides, Green Pointe took a grand gesture to “peel” the facade on the Southwest corner to maximize the view. Behind the gap between South and West facade, there are community gardens situating at every three-floors to allow a pleasant winter-getaway space for the users. Viewing from opposite side of the river, the strip of gardens become a green ribbon. At the ground floor, the facade opens up and flow above the existing garden supporting by “hypercolumn”. Overall, Green Pointe encourages to shorten the distance between men and nature.

II. Bio City Urban Design Studio The Post-War City as Ideas and Project Vision Planning and Urban Design for 2050 Giesing, Munich | Germany Professor: Benedikt Boucsein Group Project with Ziyao Chen
It aims to vision how technology in 2050 can integrate strategy and impacts to a post-war city like Munich. After WWII, Germany gradually becomes the biggest CO₂ emitter in Europe. Moreover, with raising population in the city of Munich, the emission of CO₂ that involves in food production and transportation also contributes to the global warming. We believe by tackling the issue through food industry can slow down the trend of global warming. App Simulation & Video Presentation please visit: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1iTUVaNr1j_0IiWkjgLDtN3rmMIgQDqZ?usp=sharing
Identify Current Problem
Germany in Comparison to Other EU Country
Germany is the biggest CO2 emitter among EU countries in 2017 and was responsible for 25% of all Verified Emissions. The emission is due to possession of the largest coal plant and its prosperous automobile industry. Numbers show that Germany has the largest amount of automobiles.

Annual Average Air Temperature in Munich (1781-2018). The air temperature has significantly risen since 21st century, and it has also broken the past records. Without prevention, the air temperature could potentially keep raising.
Number of days with temperature over 30 degree Celsius (1879-2015). Although there are extreme hot days periodically, the last 20 years show higher frequency of days that are above 30 degrees, at the same time breaking the highest record.
The graph shows premature deaths in Germany is the highest among other EU countries. It indicates the number of people that have deceased before the average age of death in a population.

Urban farming is already a trend in Germany, as well as Munich. We researched about the entire process of food production and try to eliminate unnecessary procedures that contribute to abundant CO2 emission, such as the highlighted part: transportation.
There are 3920 cars on the streets
which take up 53900 m2 of spaces
We believe VERTICAL PARKING is the solution. The structure can later easily be transform into residential, schools, offices, etc. with its openplan characteristic
If we stack parkings together
We can free up m2 of fields to farm

III. Intergenerational Center Integrative Architecture Design Studio Providing a Societal Solution to an Aging City Dwight | Illinois Professor: Tait Johnson
This project speculates the introduction of High Speed railway, or Hyperloop transportation system, to a small town called Dwight. In which, it will allow the traveling time to Chicago to be under 20 minutes. With the advancement in transportation, outmigration and population shifts throughout this era have left many rural areas in Illinois as a skeleton of once-thriving communities. The goal is to allow architecture to respond to the social and political shifts by providing an Intergenerational Care and Community Center in the City of Dwight. The facility allows workers to place senior parents and younger children in the center during the day, and pick them up after work. By combining the generations together under programmed and supervised spaces, they can mutually benefit through activities that are designed to encourage interactions. It aims to serve as a dynamic meeting, care giving, sharing, and learning space for the community across generations

IV. Eixample Biblioteca B.S. Capstone Studio Rethinking a City Library Barcelona | Spain Professor: Alejandro Lapunzina
This project situates at the edge of Eixample in the City of Barcelona. It aims to bring a vibrant and erudite atmosphere into this busy neighborhood that has a great mix of residents, tourists, and public infrastructure. With its unique site condition, the project tries to celebrate it by manifesting a dramatic visual impact to the architecture. From level 4-6, the “lighthouse”, not only hosts the largest study area in the building, but also provides beautiful city view from a higher position. The design emphasizes a lot on creating the welcoming ambiance and to literally acts like a lighthouse to the neighborhood. Structurally, the library praises the books by incorporating massive bookshelves between the major concrete columns vertically through the building. For the curtain wall at the lighthouse, it uses double glass panels with small opaque automated fins in between that can combat the excessive sun in Barcelona.
