PROLOGUE
The building is built to last. The Pula Arena, for example, which used to be used for fighting shows, is now used as a venue for different cultural events in summer. This shows cities can evolve and develop a territorially modern character with the conservation of their historical heritage. As Aldo Rossi says, "I am fascinated by the possibilities of architecture in different countries and regions. It seems that all these cultures from different nations make up my architecture and form a whole, an inclusive whole that can reintegrate cultures that have been lost", and I hope to further explore the ways in which enduring, regionalism can be practised in architectural design.

[1] PILGRIMAGE
Academic Design Individual Work Instructor: Zhang Zhiwen 2019 Spring The project is a small monastery situated within a Tibetan Buddhist temple complex called Sera Monastery in the middle of Lhasa, Tibet, China, as part of a sequence of mountain transmigration for Buddhist followers. In line with the functional transition from low to high secular to sacred traditional dwellings, I have attempted to respond to this change from the perspective of figure-ground relation. After a typological study in conjunction with local dwellings, the designer compressed the pilgrimage path into the space of this small temple.

SECTION PERSPECTIVE II
The second section mainly shows the highest block of the building, which is also the closest space to the sacred. It functions as a turning room, a Tibetan scripture room as well as an area for reading scriptures. Walking up along the stairs and staying at the platforms , the pedestrian ends up overlooking the entire mountain range as well as the building as a whole. 14

[2] DENTAL CLINIC
Competition Design Individual Work Instructor Prof. Lin Wenjie 2019 Fall The competition requires participants to help HHOA build its HOPE Dental Clinic and Training Institute in Kigali, the capital of Rwanda, where dental resources are very scarce. The program focuses on responding to local materials and regional construction techniques, creating a cascading building form that takes advantage of the slope of the site and provides an in-depth design for the movement of staff and patients.

Acedemic Design Individual Work Instructor Prof. Xu Zongwu 2021 Spring The design attempts to explain the changes in the building form above the site in terms of changes in land policy, population density, etc. since the Republic of China.The volumes from various periods in history are extracted, interpreted and reassembled in the site with an attempt to create a kind of heterotopia through which we can take a new look at the spatial form of the city in its historical dimension.

Large Scale
Consists of residential space and a small amount of exhibition and office space, offering a variety of floor plans for different types of residents and the resulting public spaces.
Medium Scale
A slab building with office functions and a partial exhibition space at the junction of the ground floor and the tower, serving mainly larger art studios.
Smallest Scale
Small courtyard. Lined up along both sides of the Da Qian Shi Hutong. Provides a retail space for the work of art practitioners and connects outsiders to art workers.
Small Scale
Small to medium sized courtyard with a focus on art offices. Serving artists with more established careers.
Main Public Space
The original programme of the site for sport is retained. A football pitch, basketball cour t and tennis cour t and some sports facilities have been incorporated.

SITE PLAN The relationship between the three different volumes within the site can be clearly seen in the master plan. The sports spaces are mainly distributed along the western side of the Daqian Shi Hutong, with courtyards scattered throughout the site. Multi-storey and high-rise buildings are arranged according to the specific context. 38

SPACE STRUCTURE the historical timeline and its corresponding buildings are deconstructed, analyzed, and reorganized in non-linear relationships. As Foucault described, the world can feel itself more like a web that connects some points and intertwines its strands than like a great life that has grown over time.

The site has a wonderful natural landscape and the owner can meet friends in the tea room to play Go and display his own little wooden crafts. The bedroom faces the lotus pond and overlooks the lakeside pavilion in the distance.
