THE LINK : BETWEEN BLUE AND GREEN Location: Frankfurt am Main, Germany Studio Type: 4th Year Bachelor Travel Studio - Individual Work Design Program: Ferry Terminal + Amenities The proposal is inspired by the history of Frankfurt’s star-shaped fort in 1572 for defense. The points of these fort projections created lookouts of overseeing and defending around the inner city. As the city expanded rapidly in 1808, it was decided that the city no longer needed the city walls, thus replacing them with garden plots. It was not until 1991 that the Frankfurt government decided to set up laws to protect and regulate the greenbelt. The greenbelt not only acts as a buffer between the new town and historic area, but it also facilitates an underground rainwater collection system. Although the greenbelt is a very prominent feature of the city, its relationship with River Am Main is very weak especially when it is no longer a feature of isolation. Upon site visits, it is also noted that the ends/beginnings of the greenbelt are disconnected visually and physically from the river by traffic lanes. A visibly grand entrance linking the two entities was established in order to invite more Frankfurters and visitors to experience this interesting dialogue.

When one approaches an access point to the lower river edge, there are often two impressions given off to its visitors - a preview of what is to expect or an interior that completely contrasts from the exterior. However, for this particular site, it is believed that a gradual transitional path is the most suitable approach to link the two distinct features. This transition can be seen as two competing forces that needs a common ground, through physical approach (circulation and typological differences) and materiality.

These platforms are designed an extended “land” for humans to interact with water in a “safe” zone and aquatic habitation to occur. These aquatic plants and raised river beds are made of gabion structures that would create habitable environment for potential aquatic life.

UNITE Location: Regent Park, Toronto Studio Type: 4th Year Design Studio - Individual Work Design Program: Incubator Space + community center + live-work units The topic of this studio is “Happy City� - Regent Park was the first public housing project in Toronto responding to the immigration up burst in the 1940s. However, due to the inverted design of the neighborhood and the homogeneous population within the community, it created a socially isolated community that was left out of the care of the city, which gradually became a slum. The city started revitalizing Regent Park in 2005 and it has been under construction for almost 15 years. In the midst of this neighborhood scale development getting to its final stage, my project questions whether or not by implementing community centers and career aid types of institutional facilities will actually resolve the root problem in Regent Park - community building and re-establishment of social links between residents and outside Regent Park. My proposal is to design a co-working and co-living space that allows not only stronger communities to establish between co-living residents, but also reaching out to the creative communities outside Regent Park to connect, develop and gather with these residence within the complex. Hence creating a socially positive and productive environment to build relationships as well as encourage entrepreneurship opportunities.

PHOTOKERATITIS
OVERALLY ASSEMBLY | 1:40 1
Location: Cornerstone Fine Furnitures, 2886 Dundas West Work Type: Window Installation @ TODO 2015 Position: Project Leader Production: Design Build + 3D Modeling + Diagram + Photographer Photokeratitis was a window installation done for a furniture storefront. The idea of the installation was to accentuate the tactility of furnitures displayed and sold from this company. Using a MDF skeletal structure coated with paper fins, with electric fans installed around the installation, creating an illusion of a living, breathing wall at the storefront. Drawing the pass-byer’s attention towards the installation as well as the furnitures displayed at the two oculuses. Through this project, a lot of prototyping was done before making a final design decision. During the design process, I am also exposed to an extensive variety of digital tools (e.g. grasshopper in Rhino modeling) and workshop experiences (e.g. access to tools to build prototypes). This installation was also one of the stops during the Toronto Design Offsite Festival 2015 and was also awarded People’s Choice Award 2015.

NOVA
CONCEPT | ILLUSTRATION OF SPACE
Location: 325 Church Street, Ryerson Architectural Science Department Work Type: Nuit Blanche Proposal Team Member (6): Stephanie Tung, Jessica Hoang Chen, Thy Vo, Ishan Patel, Shiva Suresh, Nineveh Rashidzadeh Position: Team Leader Production: Design + Build + 3D Modeling + Photographer + Renders NOVA is an installation inspired by the natural phenomenon itself. A star that suddenly increases in brightness and then slowly returns to its natural state over time. The hanging structure proposed increases in brightness as people approach it; the closer the person is, the brighter the structure becomes. The use becomes engulfed by a bright space, surrounded by tessellating tetrahedrons. Each surface of the tessellation contains a reflective surface, the closest of which is an infinity mirror that resonates the bright space. These mirrors reflect all of the light on the structure infinitely, providing the experience of being in the cosmos themselves. Through this project, Arduino is used to program the LED light strips, in which when one approaches the installation, he or she will trigger a sensor, and the installation will increase or decrease brightness and changes color as programed.
