Brendan Carr, Shinji Miyajima, Tyler Stoeckel, Tsui-Lun Wang 2016 Spring Contribution: Design Iterations, Mock Ups, Project Organizer, Construction Designer, Unit Production, Construction, Graphic Design & Production, photographer
Cell.New() explores the inherent boundary between reality and the virtual world of computational design; the goal of which was to translate a virtual form, developed through algorithmic growth, to a tangible, full scale, architectural prototype.
The exploration began with multi-agent algorithm intended to mimic cellular growth. The algorithm relied on agent coherence to structure the cells into a continuous surface. Boundaries and components of elasticity were manipulated within the algorithm in order to simulate site specificity and materiality.
01
Structurally, the installation latches on to the perimeter walls before growing upward into a sheltering canopy. In the script, the cellular structure is coerced into a planar surface through an equalizing spring force. In order to manifest this spring system into a physical construction, spandex fabric was utilized to manipulate the form into a similar moment of tension.
02
Algorithmic iterations.

Computational Building project is the two week project that carried out individually after the first three months of computational installation study. Each student explores an element of interest from the design and construction of the installation project and develop it into a building proposal.
Melbourne Train Station project is an experimental exploration of algorithmic system in relation to social interaction and communication. The project was working with the combination of self-genrated and tensile structures to create complex layered spaces. Programmed agents responded to site specifications to grow, deconstruct, and unity.

Narrative Studio
Calvino’s If on a winter’s night a traveler... cvonstructed with twelve chapters, each chapter is a short story and seams unrelated and broken, while reader follows the linear structure of the book, both narrator and reader’s (character) mood started to intensify. The culmination of such intensity is eventually ameliorated in the midst of the book but later continuous escalated. As a result, the main character got an obscure answer to his initial question and left open as well as confused end.
Narrative Studio is designed to study intellectual construction in literature through reading an original work documented in diagrams and further translated its language to a board game and an architectural project.

Interlace
The game, interlace, is the three dimensional representation of physical relation between the two main characters in the book and the mental intensity both we as a reader and the characters.
The idea of this game is to create inner interlacing structure within a formal outer structure. The linear passage represents two characters convoluted relation; they unify, discrete, one after another, based on individual decision and chances.

While constructing your own passage, each step that is taken will affect the next or the whole structure of the game. Each player can only go across the other player’s intersection cube, which represents the intersection of two main characters in the book.

In the book, we follow an existing outer structure to lead us a linear vision. However, the intertwined relation between us, the narrator, the male character, and the female character remains dazzling.

Tour Flux
-Paris Sky-Pool Competition Special Mentioned Shinji Miyajima, Sam Schuermann, Tsui-Lun Wang 2015 Fall
Contribution: Concept Design, Exterior Design, Skypool Design, 3D Modeling, Renderings
Tour flux proposes establishing a new luxury sky-pool hotel and mixed use plaza in the area of La Defense, a vibrant tourist destination and Europe’s largest central business district. Located along Paris’ historical axis, linking the Louvre Palace. Arc de Triomphe, and the Grande Arche the light, slender, reaching form will become an icon, a beacon seen from almost every location within the capital. As the tower rises, exoskeleton folds around the interior core, creating sharp turns along the facade and, at times, slicing into the rectilinear floor plates. The exoskeleton has three main surface treatments, which wind themselves together, evoking a strong sense of movement. Taking cues from the Seine, the tower grows up to be an extension of the river itself, with the front facade becoming an urban waterfall.
The sky-pool atop the tower overflows along one of the exoskeleton’s surfaces. The finned system saw along the eastern facing elevation. The fins contain water between themselves and guide it down the tower to the plaza surface, where they then gently empty into small channels on the green surface. Cutting through the interior of the tower is another tributary, which collects water from overflowing originating in the center of the sky-pool. Continuing the dynamic water flow in the principal hotel corridors, this water eventually empties into a gently flowing shallow pool in the interior of the plaza space, surrounded by pickets of lush garden. With the intersection of the public plaza, private amenities, urban green space, and the living facade, a new icon for Paris emerges.
33
Paying particular attention to the proximity of the Seine, pedestrian access points throughout the district, bustling traffic along the central axis, and potential for incredible views of all of Paris, a tower that appears to elegantly emerge from a pedestrian-friendly public plaza was conceived. While the plaza occupies the majority of the existing footprint, the slender tower has a footprint of approximately 750m^2, creating a light and welcoming addition to the skyline. Beginning at the plaza space, guest of the hotel as well as the public are invited to congregate, relax, and enjoy close views of the winding Seine and activity on the focal axis. The plaza and lobby space, which house a restaurant, bar, and cafe, have many access points at multiple levels as to encourage the congregation rather than a harsh linear circulation, allowing for a much more dynamic spatial equality.
