A bridge complex with the motivation of calligraphy.
Team Work: Structure Research With Ma Yongjie Individual Contribution: Concept 100%, Model 90%, All Drawings In This Portfolio
The calligraphy’s writing way such as connection, turn and stop, these movement are with three dimension motivations and the prototype of this project is from them. After getting the shape we using BESO evolution to optimize the structure. Finally, we get the spatial form of bridge-fair following the shape of the structure.
Yunghsin is a county with the multiple culture, and it’s honoured as the town of the calligraphy as well. Now, there need a bridge to connect the ancient city with new city. There was a type of construction crossing the river and it with function of bridge and fair in “Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival ”. This kind of construction would not only for transportation, but it also is the carrier of the city And citizens can experience old and new elements of cities over the river.

Using hypothetico-deductive method to confirm the relationship between the total energy and the number of the supports
Vf=0.2
Vf=0.5
Vf=0.3
questioning
①Is there a relationship between the total energy and the amount of supports of the bridge structure?
② How many supports will be the optimal solution?
①There is a positive relationship between the total energy and the amount of supports.
② The more supports set the less total energy would get.
deduction experiment conclusion design development
In this experiment we control the variables. We only change the amount of supports, and observe the total energy of structure under the same conditions iteration steps and force condition).
①control

A complex function library with the motivation of dragon.
The inspiration of the building’s form is from the dragon’s motivation the dragon hiding in deep water, the proud dragon repents, seeing the dragon in the field,a flying dragon in the sky. All of them are allusions from the Book of Changes. These allusions describe the dragon in different term with different motivation , which is the same as the people. The spatial form of building is combined with these motivation in sequence. And it also responds to the elements of environment such as trees, mountain and road.
With the rapid development of the city, Santai, a county with the culture of dragon ,which is falling into a cultural crisis . The library is located in Xiangyang middle school at Santai county. The purpose of this building is to improve the transportation condition at this area,and provide the space for teachers and students to entertain and study . The form of the building is responding the culture of dragon, and it also responds to the environment.

The Dilemma of Jingfu Town
The low urbanization of Jingfu Town keeps its traditional rural appearance. Backward planning and architectural form had become one of the obstacles to its development.
Issues to Be Addressed
One of the main reason for Jingfu Town's slow urbanization is its single development mode,which is mainly based on agriculture . Mixed mode is urgently required.
are lots of mountains surrounding the Jingfu Town. And there are about 40 km from Jingfu Town to Santai downtown. The location situation makes it isolating Due to the backwardness of Jingfu Town,a large number of people streamed into the downtown, leading to the loss of labor in Jingfu Town. It has caused a vicious circle.

With the Jinniu Road and Fu River wharf
The place has advantages of the transport and the location. So the scale of city became larger and larger.
The Culture of Dragon in Santai
The people in Santai believe that the power of dragon can cast out demons. A flood dragon need to experience the hardships among sky, ground and people to become a flying dragon. Most flood dragons will choose experience the hardship of ground. But it will cause great flood to damage the villages near the river.
At night, in that old man’s dream. He saw that flood dragon changed into a stately old man with white hair and beard. He said’ I am that flood dragon,but now become a flying dragon. Thanks for your positive words. I have nothing to give you but a piece of dragon scale.’
The site of Baoji-Chengdu Railway didn't follow the Jinniu Road. And the transport of Fu River fell into disuse. So Santai became marginal Santai's mainly developing way of economy is agriculture. And it also doesn't have heavy industry. This condition led the recession of economy
The dragon hiding in deep water -it’s not time for action
Nine Dragons Paintings The Motivation of Dragons The Spatial Form
The proud dragon repents -- the swellhead will be punished.
One day, an old man was fishing near the Fu River. Suddenly a flood dragon out of water. The old man was terrified for the flood dragon was experiencing the hardship of ground And he wanted it to choose other ways to become a flying dragon. Then he said loudly ’What a wonderful flying dragon!’ for twice. Finally the flood dragon went back.
When the old man woke up he really got the piece of dragon scale large as dustpan with golden gloss. The dragon scale can ward of evil if hang it down the bridge above the river, the flood dragons will choose other ways to become the flying dragon. The old man donated the dragon scale to shield his village
Seeing the dragon in the field -- it’s first time to display one’s talent.
A flying dragon in the sky -the thing at a period of great prosperity.

Ground nest is anchored on the slope near the lake, for reinforcing the original terrain environment There are lots of species of birds inhabiting on the slope. After recording the routes of them, we know the area which they stay frequently. Then we make venations along the routes for creating the varitey of the enironment Birds can build the nest on the structure, between the structure and under the structure. They can find food at the void area between the structure as well.
The floating nest is consisted of different size units. Each unit is design for demands of different species of birds. The unit can float on the lake with floating columns, and it can also attach to others with the magnetic iron in the structure. These units are placed on the lake, that birds can combine them, and further construct by themselves
The tree nest is built on the site which there are not enough trees for birds inhabiting
The structure shape imitates the shape of tree. That provides the shelter for them. And this structure is constructed by concrete three-dimensional printer. There are three kinds of zones for the birds with different predation habits. Such as predatory birds, insectivrous birds and herbivorous birds. These heights of zones are fitted to their food resource, that birds can easily reach it and carry it back to their nests. Brush nest is a mobile structure which can be changed the angle for isolating the habitat of birds . The structure is made by the fiberglass it with the good tenacity and durability. Every circle is connected by the servo steering gear , it can strengthen the wire in the circle for adjusting the angle of brush nest. There is also the control APP which can control the duration and strength of the servo steering gear, According to the human interference during the day.

Chineseness is a complex and multifaceted concept that refers to the cultural, ethnic, and national identity associated with China and its people. It encompasses a wide range of elements, including language, history, traditions, values, and customs. Modernism is a response to the rapid social, economic, and technological changes of the modern era, and it challenged traditional forms of art, literature, architecture, music, and thought. As a former British colony, Hong Kong has been shaped by both Chinese and Western influences, particularly in the realm of architecture. In the early 20th century, as Hong Kong underwent a period of rapid urbanization and modernization, the city's architecture began to reflect a blend of Chinese and modernist elements.
The design project for this academic year involves the construction of a new Hong Kong Palace Museum on the original site of the Hong Kong Palace. This endeavor presents an opportunity to explore how the utilization of modernist architectural approaches, such as spatial transparency compositional logic and the narrativity of architectural spaces, can be employed to interpret and imbue this project - which is deeply steeped in Chinese cultural characteristics - with a contemporary sensibility.

This acadmic year studio mainly researches the relationship between geometry and architecture . We tried to comsume geometry to create a new type of municipal service building. In the first semester, we researched the Tensegrity Structure System in geometric aspects and evaluated different types of structure. In the second semester, we depended on architecture design and studied the Municipal Service Buildings' prototype to design the adaptive type of Municipal
Adaptive Type of Municipal Service Building
Since the 1960s, Hong Kong Municipal Service Buildings have met a significant problem. Their booth vacancy rate rose consistently in this period. Since that, Hong Kong Government has tried to launch a series of Municipal Service Buildings with different functions to fit various demands at different times. As a result, Municipal Service Buildings in Hong Kong, like a series of products, change their types all the time to meet society's needs

In 1966, the Hong Kong government learned from abroad a type of Street Market design that featured a rooftop children's playground. This was intended to allow children to play while their parents shopped. The existing North Point Street Market also follows this architectural type, situated on a sloping site that connects the differing elevations of Tsat Tsz Mui Road and Pak Fuk Road through the Street Market component. The rooftop also incorporates staff dormitories.The neighborhood has a sizable elderly population, and a limited number of local kindergartens. In developing a new municipal building for this site, it should simultaneously address the day-care needs of the elderly residents and the childcare requirements of the community. Furthermore, as this is a densely populated residential area, the new building should provide additional public recreational spaces to meet the needs of the residents and respond to the predominant Hoklo People cultural identity of the local population.
Programmes Management
This project is a multi-functional building, with its programmatic components consisting of a Green Area, Commercial spaces, Service Facilities, and Administrative functions. These four distinct functional modules not only have internal relationships within each component, but also possess interconnections with one another

The Schedule of The Project
This part of the study examined the proportional changes in the different functional components within the municipal service building program, based on the local demographic profile and the corresponding needs of various age groups. By analyzing the shifts in the neighborhood's age distribution over time, the researchers were able to determine the fluctuations in the required allocations for each functional component, and project the likely trends for the coming decades.The data analysis suggests that in the years following 2016, the demand for elderly day-care, street market, and community service facilities has been growing, and this trend is expected to continue in the foreseeable future.
Geometry Protoype & Surroundings
Prototype Research
This part of the study explored the varying indoor-outdoor area ratios generated by different rotational angles of the building floors. The analysis revealed that the site offers diverse landscape views and surrounding buildings heights depending on the orientation. By employing a rotational method, each floor can be configured to create different sizes of outdoor spaces, semi-outdoor spaces, and indoor spaces, in response to the surrounding conditions of the site.
