Spirits of Place Gin distillery on Mornington Peninsula, Victoria. Studio Leaders: Ariani Anwar and Thomas Proctor from John Wardle Architects.
Spirits of Place is a gin distillery project completed during my graduate studies. The site was a vineyard in the Mornington Peninsula. The term "Spirits of Place" carries a dual meaning. On one hand, it signifies the distilled products, and on the other, it celebrates the distinctive characteristics of the site. This distiller y ser ves dual purposes as both a distillation factory and a visitor experience spot.

Design principles Spirits of Place
The studio allowed students to choose their ingredients for distillation. The distinct ingredient that I chose is an Australian indigenous plant, lemon myrtle. This distillery is designed to produce lemon myrtle gin. The site topography is like rolling hills. A creek runs through the site. Lemon myrtle and other plants will be planted on site, accompanied by existing trees. A zigzagging pathway connects different buildings. At each turn, people will pause to experience the beauty of the place.

Reframed Interaction: Craft Community Shophouses A renovation of existing shophouses that adjacent to the fading Ban Bat handicraft community, in Bangkok, Thailand. Thesis leader: Helen Walter.
Reframed Interaction is my thesis project. The renovation reframes the interaction between tourists and local artisans. The proposed program consists of modernised commercial space, artisans’ working space, and residential units.

Background Over hundreds of years, Bangkok boasted a considerable population of skilled artisans. However, the handicraft industry has gradually declined under constant impact of tourism and urbanization. Ban Bat community is one of the representatives of fading handicraft groups.
11
Rendered vignette of communal backyard Reframed Interaction
Reframed Interaction identifies the negative influences of tourism and urbanization that local handicraft is facing. It proposes a new typology of shophouse that meets the needs of the Ban Bat community in the present day.

Interior Design Retail Space High-end retail interior design for a golf sports brand Work Sample at Okamoto Deguchi Design
This is an interior design project completed during my internship at ODD. It involved a small retail store for a golf sports brand. I developed two design proposals. During my internship, I learned how to create clean and desirable atmospheres using carefully selected materials, and how to effectively divide space within small-scale environments.

Construction Design Physical Model
This model is a specific 4*6m part of the building. By drawing the axonometric detail drawing and making the physical model of key structure elements referring to the original plan and section drawings, I have developed the understanding of the construction sequence, and strategies of choosing construction method in respond to design intent and site condition.
