01 Home or Studio To break down and rearrange one item becomes an essential way to produce art works.

Craft model 1/50 Materials: white acrylic, tranlucent acrylic, SLS for 3D print, clay, copper pipe, wood.

Equipment: 3D printer, laser cutter.

Sequences in sections This set of setions shows how the artist use the unusual spaces. In some sections, same spaces are set in different positions, but the way artist used it would be different due to the environment and the emotion. This would create some overlapped views and abnormal usage of the normal object.

02 Market or Gallery This project aims to release the conflict between life of the residents and the busy city by building up a shortcut and a multi-functional building. And make full use of the different functions to creating a flexiable and interesting space for those who want to show and even sell their works or ideas to public.

Section of market 1/275

The lifted walls are controled by a group of hydraulic press machines put in the basement of the building. And the device for retail could be used as retail and wall at different state.
