This project is about a space problem that focuses on modulation of space, amplification of light, resolution of scale, fulfilment of proportion, purpose of structure, authenticity of material, and richness of experience. The interior spaces extend and integrate the exterior spaces, while controlling access to and modulating the space between all of the elements. The structure is to be efficient, eliminating excessive mass or redundant components. Art Foundation was developed on a generic site which is cropped from an infinitely gridded surface.

Tornadoes are incredibly powerful phenomena that are not fully understood. They form under exceptional conditions when warm, moist air rises and crashes into a cold front, exploding into a super cell thunderstorm. I attempted to recreate these conditions into a highrise building to explore the massive spiraling and magnificent air vortex.

PROGRAM axonometric
The 35,000 square meter headquarters tower for CITIC Bank and 68,585 square meter serviced apartments tower with retail podium are sited in a prominent location in Suzhou, on a main axis through a new central business district being constructed east of Jinji Lake. With two clients on adjacent parcels sharing a single site with limited access, the challenge was to give each entity its own sense of arrival and defined service zones whilst maintaining a balanced sense of whole in the overall massing. The various massing components are conceived of as kinetic shearing elements in plan that push and pull in the dominant east-west axis of the district. The resultant open spaces between the buildings are like gaps in a puzzle; space for arrival, service and gardens.

An important design goal for the CITIC Parcel project is a sense of cohesion with the surrounding context and evolving urban fabric of commercial development east of Jinji Lake. A major development in this surrounding context is the proposed Modern Media Square project located directly south of the CITIC Parcel site. In terms of massing, scale and formal language, Modern Media Square will pose a significant and somewhat dominant presence along Xian Dai Avenue and other main roadways. Thus, from the earliest stages of conceptual development, it was recognized that the CITIC Parcel project must in some way respond to the presence of Modern Media Square.

Located at the intersection of East Guang-Hua and Ninth Road, the new Nanjing Qi-Lin Technology Campus Project Headquarters blends civic dignity and authority with openness and unity. 24-meter tall, 53,000 square meter structure consists of six above-grade levels and two below-grade parking levels. Four components comprise the basic L-shaped plan. To the north, the messing consists of a rhythmic series commercial office �fingers� divided by transparent atria. To the south, an L-shaped wing of government offices forms the urban corner and dominant building image. The south wing embraces a large, lower mass containing supporting public functions. These includes service and conference centers, exhibition halls, reception space, and an F&B center.

One of the main goals for the Greenland Metropolis project is to establish a sense of unification of its programmatic elements whilst also creating a unique character for each. The project’s conceptual basis lies in the creation of a building image expressing a symbol and tradition that is firmly embedded in Chinese culture and one that is encountered across all aspects of Chinese society and in the minds of its people; the dignity and fortune of The Dragon, which benefits everything in the world. Imperative to the design success of the towers on the Greenland site is the balance and poise of the buildings. Design cues were taken from the famous Shaolin Warriors and their history of developing Kung Fu stances that enhance structure and alignment. These positions provide the warriors with balance, firmness and strength that manifest itself in the positioning and design of the towers. The relationship of the two towers presents a unique opportunity in tension and energy between the towers and the surrounding site. Their dynamic relationship in height and direction is unified through their similar façade language and expression. VIEW FROM WEST
