the project is to design an intervention that seeks to intensify the programmatic potential of the site in order to foster interactions across the deiverse set of human and non-human residents and visitors working and living in their midst. the intervention will serve as an exchange of services and information across these populations and may include daily or seasonal shift in its origramatic intent. the program will be private offices for medical clinics, employment services, gathering space and cafe for special events that will accomodate - connect actibities in varying levels of publicness, the project will to the public transportation node to expand its accessibilities to the community of the urban

the project uses thread models as an experimental method to explore path system and a minimal way system in order to develop and articulate spatial qualities that specific to the site and urban environment as an elementary school. the project is also question about the interpretation of educational system through architecture. this is to test alternate architectural articulations or the learning spaces of tomorrow’s.

housing complex
williamsburg area is currently facing the problem of uncontrolable housing price. the residential price is dramatically increasing in the past three years. while the neighborhood has been promoted and developed as a hub for young entrepreneurs, the residential market in the area does not go along with it. ‘young sphere’ is a housing project that aims to create the inside world where young entrepreneurs can live and work within the same place. the project also intend to maximize the business opportunity for residents by dedicating the underground and ground level to public spaces and retails.

form finding
geneology is the catalog of fragmentation that demonstartes the transformation of p lastic qaulity in vertex genetated object. the documentation illustrates how each hybridized object was transformed to have the unique qaulity by deliberately adjusted each vertext such as stacking, twisting, paralelling, intertwining and etc.

lighting experiment
iridescent light is the project that is trying to explore the relationship between hybrid objects and lighting conditions. each piece of small object is deliberately selected, transformed and adjusted to create the harmony and iridescent phenomena effect. it is very interesting to see how powerful this small little object can create

THREAD MODEL EXPERIMENT
the experiment begins with setting up the thread system with difference length and dipped it into soap water.by investigating the reaction of the thread to the soap water, we can see that the thread gradually came together creating a rigid spine.

the rigid spine from the experiment appears as a main circulation and structure for the school while the secondary spine was used as a tools to identify the void in which the program are located. by curating difference experiences on difference surface, the kids tend to develop their consciousness and learning skills better than typical classrooms.

this pop-up mini dining theatre is a community design project which designed to support the relations and interactions that already exist separately in the public arena of the street and within the pricate domain of the surrounding homes. currently, soi supaphong is one of a network of bangkok streets that caters predominantly to take away food.local residents and international tourists alike come to soi supaphong purchase a broadsmattering of exceptional regional thai dishes, and t hen leave the street to comsume their food in the comfort and cleanliness of thier homes or hotel rooms, typically in front of the television. this pattern of consumption could not be possible, however,without the participation of plastic bags, styrofoam boxes, distant landfills, the great pacific garbage patch, waste trafficking, global warming and increased rates of cancer from plastic erosion in hot take-away food. these actors would not be active in the community if more of the amenities of private domestic space, clean floors, entertainment, seating, rain and heat protection were publicly availableon such a takeaway food street. so, recognizing the absence of conditions otherwise supplied at great environmental and public health costs by the private domestic space, we designed a cart that could transfrom into a 10 person stadium seating theatre, equipped with portable dining tables and storage as well as an 18 person dining area. both spaces would provide clean dining environments,

with material as warm wood floors as well as decadently muraled roofs to protect sonsumers from bangkok’s punishing rain and sun. to both equip the theatre and dining spaces with eating implements and to replace plastic and styrofoam packaging,we employed pintos, or tiffins, that consumers can borrow to purchase food along supaphong and transport back to their exceptional dining spaces in the mini dining theatre.this cart will not compete with other carts;rather, as a good community member, it will stimulate business within the take out community but reduce the costs and waste associated with typical take-out-food. as this is an architectural design build studio, and as our focus pertains to public eating culture, our output was determined to be as publicly accessible as possible. to communicate our research we chose the most communal of artistic media: the street mural. and, befitting the focus of our research,for our research, for our architectural pursuit we designed a street cart that would not aspire to replace or enhance a single cart typology, but rather would be designed for the network of the street’s carts in its entirely. our studio was correspondingly devided into cartographers the muralists and cartists the cart makers.
