Drift Hotel Instructor: Jason Alread (Arch.) Çigdem T. Akkurt (ID) Partner: Ashley Wire &Zoe Bick (Arch.) Amanda Roth &Lu Liu (ID) Location: South Beach, Miami, FL Date: Spring Semester, 2014
The Drift Hotel is aiming to become a landmark at South Beach and standout from the surrounding famous hotels with its extreme skinny proportion. Setting all the guest rooms along one side, it creates as many opportunities as possible for guest to visually connect with outdoor space. The contineous entertainment is one of the dominant elements in Miami culture. The landscape, cabanas and private bungalows are spread out on the rest of the site. It activates the whole site with the diverse activities of guests, which responds to the local culture appropriately.

The Memory
a landscape of the disappearing spiritual DMZ
Winner of 32nd Space Magzine 2nd place- Green Future Prize Instructor: Jungwoo Ji Partner: Zitong Feng,Yuan Liu Location: DMZ, South Korea Date: Fall Semester, 2014
Other than the political union by one government, the ultimate peace shall only be achieved by the union of people, friends and families. Due to the Korean war, many families were separated. Due to the DMZ, those people could never meet families in their entire life. With the extremely intense atmosphere, DMZ also creates a spiritual and invisible barrier between people from two countries.

The story of the Korean War
1. Chosun Dynasty Before Korean War Korea is one country with eight “Do”, Hamgyong, Pyongan, Hwanghae, Gyeonggi, Gangwon, Chungcheong, Gyeongsang, Jeolla.
2. 1950-1953 During Korean War Two political powers were trying to occupy the country. The Korean War broke out.
Site location
3. July,1953 Korean War ended The Korean war ended with the result of separating the Korean peninsula into two countries with DMZ.
4. Post-war Period Due to the extremely strict separation, Many families were separated by DMZand could meet each other anymore.
5. Post-war Period Without human activities, the DMZ has gradually grown to a natural habitat. Spiritually, the peninsula has been scattered into eight segments.
6. Post-war Period Families at two side had completely lost connections with each other.

We propose to design a place to provide opportunities for people from the two sides to meet their families. Here, they might find their parents. Here they might hear people speaking in their native dialect. Here, their memories of the past will be called back. Although the two countries may not be united in the foreseeable future, all the people are re-united by the same root. We are confident that with human activities, this land will be activated. By utilizing the dynamic change of the artificial landscape, a new level of reunion could be achieved.

People get chances to meet their families
Phase 1. The workers from eight “do” come here. They construct the platform representing their “do” and water channel with DMZ form.
2015 Phase III. More people will come here and gather around with other people. They will leave their marks here as memory. The water channel is getting shallower and vegetation is becoming denser.
2035
Phase II. The first group of people come here and finally meet their friends and families. Platforms are surrounded by a little vegetation. The water channel filled with water.
2020 Phase IV. Many years later, the meeting is becoming a regular activity for people. Their communication is becoming regular. The water channel has been filled and vegetation has filled the space between modules.

Joint Node Music Hub the connection between old town and innovation waterfront Instructor: Jungwoo Ji Partner: Zitong Feng,Yuan Liu Location: Boston, MA Date: Fall Semester, 2014 The project is located at the Innovation District at Boston. Zoom in this district, the site is considered located between the old town area and newly developed waterfront. The main task is to design a music theatre as the connecting point between two different urban contexts. The site is separated as south and north portions by one of the main roads connecting the downtown Boston. From old town area, south portion, north portion, and water, it could create a transitional relationship by creating different musical program space. In the south portion, we design the music salon and exhibition space to welcome everyone from the old town to enjoy music in a more casual situation. At the north portion, we design the formal musical performance space, so people could enjoy music quietly and peaceful along the waterfront. The void outdoor activity space also creates a visual path connecting the old town to the new waterfront as a more flexible typology to connect different urban context.

Jama’a House Instructor: Ulrike Passe Robert Demel Partner: Brandon Pearson Mohammed Ali Location: Berlin, Germany Date: Summer Semester, 2013
Neuköl is a district with high immigrant density in Berlin, Germany. The living condition in this area is relatively poor in Berlin. The goal of this project is to design a residential housing to relieve the shortage of the living space. At the same time, the sustainability should be the key element. To reduce the energy usage and to create a better ventilation and temperature condition is required.
This project is designed based on the sustainable aspect. Considering the climate condition in Berlin, to receive more sunlight is required. Every unit has a balcony. The balconies are shifted a little bit between each two floors so that each of them wouldn’t be completely shaded. At the same time, the balconies works as a transition space between the indoor and the outdoor subway station across the street. The courtyard is designed as a typical community space in Berlin.

Due to the building density of this neighborhood and the dimension of the building, the lighting condition of the courtyard, which is one of the most important parts of this project, need to be considered. The residential building was design at along the street to receive more sunlight, and there is nothing in the courtyard to block sunlight. From the Vasari studies down below, the courtyard will have enough sunlight during most time of the spring, fall and all daytime of summer.

We choose the South West corner unit as the research object. This unit has the worst light condition during summer. To avoid solar radiation and thermal transfer, the double skin facade is applied. The facade is made of perforated metal panel, which is also operable. Thus, the light intensity indoor could be control by residences.

Contemplation Urban Condo Instructor: LaDan Omidvar Location: SoHo District, New York City, NY Date: Spring Semester, 2013
The Contemplation Urban Condo located at the historic Cast Iron District is aiming to provide living space for single people and young families. The primary consideration of unit design is compact housing and flexible spatial separation. The urgent demand of living space, the affordable prices, easy access to necessary amenities and convenient transportation determine the site as an idea location for condo design.

The strategies of the project are derived from the intersection of Crosby St. and Broome St. The obvious difference of human activities on the two streets has created a dynamic cross, which helps to rationalize the relationships of programs and the conversation with the unique NYC urban context.

Gerontophobia Machine Instructor: Patrick Rhodes Partner: Zhahn Bose (Mapping is done Individually) Location: Chicago, IL Date: Spring Semester, 2012 Movie of the machine is on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0KNJDxIZ5VI
The machine is to express people’s fear to becoming old(Gerontophobia).Our design intention was to develop a machine that would psychologically and physically simulate the impression of old age by wearing this machine. By fabricating restraints that would restrict movement to that of an elderly person and to create a visual simulation of blindness. Our machine is composed primarily from a combination of hand carved fallen trees, and over 80% of the overall design was completed with recycled material with an addition of milled wood.

Mapping and Moive Concept The mapping project is to explain the machine with an abstract and 3D approach. I created this map to demonstrate the gradient changes and some of fierce argument within people’s physical body. Six moment models were made to test the transformance of the time-change to spacial quality. Plenty of sharp angles were created to express the contradiction between the truth and people’s fear. The link of the movie is listed on the previous page. 27
