Chapter 1 Emotions are Indestructible "Let the wind as a needle and the rattan as wool to mend the wound for Beirut and form a net to resist disaster." As much as the bombing of Beirut harbor was traumatic for Lebanon, we also saw something very precious.
ABOUT PEOPLE Two million of the country's population of about 6 million live here.300000 people are homeless.
ABOUT FOOD About 90% of Lebanon's wheat demand depends on imports, most of which are transported through the destroyed port of Beirut. Before the explosion, 85% of the grain reserves in Lebanon were in Beirut port.
ABOUT FINANCE T h e L e b a n e s e Po u n d h a s depreciated by about 70% since October 2019. The country is in a financial crisis. The number of local unemployed exceeds the total population by 35%, and the number of poor people has surged to more than 45%
The Port Of Beirut Beirut port is located in the middle of the Mediterranean coast of Lebanon, which is not only the largest fine port city in the eastern coast of the Mediterranean, but also the important gateway and cargo distribution center of the Lebanese Republic. It is the commercial, transportation, financial and cultural center of the Middle East, the link between East and West, and the gateway to the Middle East.
The port of Beirut is famous for its free port and the largest cargo hub in the Middle East.
The ongoing In order to restore the civil war in prosperity of the country, Lebanon has econ- omy and trade, since seriously 1983, the Lebanese affected port government has adjusted operations. the rec- onstruction plan and implemented the "Greater Beirut Plan".

Blind spot : One of the structures of the eye A blind spot is something that is present and can be seen, but cannot be seen because the eye is at a special Angle. (A) The underlying cause of the Beirut port explosion was the presence of flammable and explosive materials that had been in the harbor for six years since 2014 -- a huge mental and physical blind spot.(B)
How do I incorporate it into my design? Therefore, the evolution of the single memorial chamber module refers to the formation principle of blind spots in the eyeball.(C)
Wound : Cutting-An act that causes pain.(D) The Beirut port explosion has brought so many sudden deaths, so many sudden disruptions to industries, so many disrupted lives, so much pain, so much fear, so many tears, so much new dust and garbage.(E)
How do I incorporate it into my design?
Terefore, the architecture uses a clean cut to cut apart the silo structure, a cut that implies injuries and wounds that are difficult to fully heal.(F)
Knit Structure : The knitting structure.(G) I remember in the news after the explosion there was a wife who was having her wedding at the time of the explosion. Her wedding was destroyed by the explosion and her wedding dress was dirty and torn. A reporter wrote: “After the tragedy, the couple had to rediscover each other and rethink the meaning of life, but they still chose to stay together.” Like them, countless shops were destroyed and people's lives plunged into darkness for a time. The dress is torn and can be mended with a needle and thread. The tragedy of the bombing in Beirut harbor can also be made up.(H)
How do I incorporate it into my design? Terefore,the architecture uses a Occlusal structure and dislocation splicing. After stitching, wind, light and plants can walk in the building like a needle and thread.(I)
The first step is to organize the moving line. Final Linear cutting
Traffic accessibility
I need to know where is the most suitable entrance to the cemetery. At the same time, I need to know where is the traffic dead corner, so as to develop strengths and avoid weaknesses in the design.
What's in picture A?
First, I drew parallel lines for each of the five edges of the outer contour corresponding to the corner points, so that each edge would get two parallel lines. By doing this for all five edges, we end up with 10 new intersections and 10 sets of parallel lines.
What's in picture B? Then, we calculate the intersection of them, and we can draw the following conclusion: if the land is an open space, and people can walk freely in the open space, the most likely area he passes through in these labeled areas is the black block in the figure, that is, the traffic in this area is the most developed. As shown in the figure, the color decreases from dark to light, representing the decrease of traffic accessibility.
As Darwin did in The Origin of Species: If we list the various eyes of existing animals from simple to complex, we can deduce how complex eyes evolved step by step. The original eye was a flat spot of photoreceptors that could perceive light in only one direction, like some protists. The depression of the photoreceptor cells increases the photoreceptor area, allowing the perception of light from different directions, improving the accuracy of vision, and preventing damage to the photoreceptor cells. The depression sinks deeper and deeper into an ideal hemispherical shape. The opening of the eye begins to contract, creating a "aperture".
Around this time, the eye gets a clear jelly that keeps mud out of the socket, further protecting the eye and fixing its shape. The eye's opening gradually shrinks and its "aperture" gets smaller and smaller, further improving the accuracy of vision, until it becomes a pinhole camera eye that can focus light on photoreceptors, like the eye of a nautilus. Next, eyes opening must use transparent membrane seal to further protect the eyes, in fact this a membrane can appear at any time, and may even eyespots has a transparent membrane protection, from the start and transparent film is not so difficult to some, can come from other parts of the body (of cornea protein also has in other parts of the body). This transparent membrane thickens and forms the lens. To make the image more and more accurate, the lens will gradually move inward, gradually thicken, and correct for aberrations by changing the ratio of proteins that make up the lens so that it has different densities in different places, eventually creating a complex eye. Eventually creating a complex eye structure. Based on the simulated eye structure, we were able to locate the blind spots at four different angles.

Chapter 2
The Old and the New are Indispensable
Some residents said to me, "now my children living in big cities, leaving the old ones to depend on each other." Some residents said to me, "I have moved here for more than 20 years. My children always have to go a long way to school. My family is poor and can't provide him with space to study." study." Some residents said to me, "no one wants to come to this village. It's a lonely village with a group of lonely old people and left behind children."
The building is surrounded by water on both sides. It is made of a rebuilt road and large area stone pavement. It is equipped with greening and parking lot. There are scattered residential houses around the building. The farmland coverage is large. The southeast part of the building is an open field with a very wide view.
Block evolution
The roof changes from a double slope to a single slope, mainly to meet the southeast direction of daylight. The outdoor leisure lawn brings the plant ecology back to the rural buildings.The readers can experience the daily activities of the local residents, and maximizes the regional character of the library.

Social Environment
Jinshan District focuses on agriculture, education is relatively backward, many local residents choose to send their children to urban schools, Xinhua Primary School has been abandoned for a long time, there are very few residents who can use the library, which has the function of education and community activities, and the population is aging seriously.
Geographical Position
The site of the Xinhua Primar y School in the Xinhua Community of Jinshan District, Shanghai,is surrounded by fields and homesteads built by farmers.
The library serves mostly the elderly and children in the local community. For the elderly, the community itself is a place for social activities. For children, the lawn in front of the library has become a place for them to play freely. The design of open space not only meets the light, but also ensures that parents can see their children's play on the lawn at any time when reading.
Sectional Drawing From the section, the horizontal space is divided into three layers, each layer has its own unique function, and has a clear partition that does not affect the flow of people.

Chapter 3 The Distance between Ideal and Reality
Cooperation: YUANGOU design, shanghai DONG HUA university, shanghai
Project start time: 2021.4.8 Complete time: 2021.11.16
Design concept
As the main material, bamboo strips add a sense of freedom and order similar to bamboo forest in the shape of Be gonia flower s through the arrangement and combination of seemingly disordered but actually orderly.
Team members:
Wenjie Lu, Chengsong Bao,Yixuan Wang, Jianguo Shi, Siyu Yang, Sitong Cheng, Minhao Xu Instructor: Geng Huang
Considering the stability problem, the approximate geometric shape of single petal is extracted to evolve the fixed steel frame of the device basebase is evolved. In order to facilitate fixation, the five corners of the base are connected to the steel frame to nail the device into the lawn and soil. The tripod is spliced to form a flower center.
All parts are assembled after customization.
Final form of combination.
Research on the arrangement mode of single piece bamboo weaving process, the combined framework mode of bamboo strips, top view and axial view. Explore the opening angle and splicing mode of petals, and explore 9 different forms to imitate the dynamic presentation of Begonia flowers, top view and front view. Finally, five types are selected, and three v i ew s c r e e n i n g i s carried out again to obtain the final form of the right figure.
ANALYSIS The Begonia flower has five petals, and a single Begonia petal is taken as the basic shape.

We conduct bending test on bamboo pieces, select bamboo pieces with appropriate thickness and flexibility, and splice them on site.（6） The material does not meet the requirements and needs to be cut again.
* The thickness and length of bamboo pieces sent by bamboo sellers are uneven and need to be cut by ourselves. At the same time, we have to ensure the hardness of the bamboo when bending.

We need to arrange and connect the placed bamboo pieces according to the logic of the design drawing, and adjust the angle of each bamboo piece. (7) Due to material problems, the layout of bamboo pieces is temporarily changed.
We selected the intersection point of several bamboo pieces and wrapped it with hemp rope of the same color system.(9)

The purpose of this is to the shape of the fixture. However, the way of hemp rope winding is very important. The interface needs to be hidden to ensure the integrity and aesthetics of the device.

What we have learned
Even if it is just a simple design, it will encounter many problems when it comes to reality. But we are like this free growing bamboo Begonia flower, fearless and facing difficulties.
The Exhibition Of Environment Design 2021, The RedWorks, Changning District, exhibition design Wenjie Lu, Instructor: Feng Yao There were many hidden processes behind the completion of a design work. In this process, the students constantly overtur ned the plans and re established their own cognition; As for teachers, their images of students were constantly overtur ned and updated. It could be said that an exposition was a combination o f c o m p l e x e m o t i o n s o f a l l p e o p l e, s o i t m u s t b e k n ow n by t h e a u d i e n c e.

In the middle of the exhibition was a sunken square, which was used to accommodate the handmade models made by the students. The audience could walk into the space by themselves through the staircase model and observe the details at a close distance. A digital screen was installed at the top, which provided light and dynamic infor mation.
In order to satisfy the audience's further understanding of the plan, an open speech hall was set up on the second floors. Students and teachers gathered here to report their design. The audience could get a deep understanding of their design from the designer's speech, and they could also feel the lively and happy atmosphere of the school.
The pictures and information on the display board have been revised and formed many times, and it's difficult t o e x p r e s s a l l t h e i d e a s c l e a r ly. So I plan to set up a small space at the back of the display board. It can display the story album, tools, items that the designer has recorded in the process of completing this work, and so on. At the same time, this space also met the audience's needs to present flowers to the work.

A c c o r d i n g t o t h e c o n s t r u c t i o n c yc l e, architects should have a hear t to meet the future. The implementation of the plan often takes too many years, and we should maintain our thinking leadership. The scheme integrates the new trend of E-reading in the future, combines the innovation of morphology, the use of multifunctional space, as well as the minimalist material matching, and integrates various considerations of character moving line, and finally presents the following effect. The U-shaped g roove of cor n g rain is associated with the model. The edges and corners cut by hexagon at the bottom are filled with complementary patterns, which are divided into 6 pieces (convenient for physical disassembly), and the reverse side is also the same structure. Structure: placed horizontally and stacked upward, which provides a certain flexibility for the exposure of space. For example, some can be used as balconies or other external spaces; Some are temporarily closed, but the space can be used at any time due to disassembly. It is both beautiful and practical. Material selection: resin.
Children's Amusement Device 2020, Donghua university, Changning District,shanghai Wenjie Lu, Instructor: Gen Huang The design is inspired by the compilation method of straw crafts in the site. It seems to be stacked and staggered, but in fact it is layered and orderly. Considering that the function must match the target audience of rice dream space (80% of the audience are children), we try to meet the functions of outdoor interaction, amusement, rest and so on by means of "weaving" and supplemented by safe structure.

LOVE is priceless, mostly reflected in her unconditionally. I can't give up my sensitivity, and I don't want to give up the emotions I yearn for. Perhaps i had watched too many disaster movies and read too many doomsday prediction, so i gradually knew how short and fragile an individual life was. I began to get used to taking every day as my last day and telling myself what the most important thing in my life is and what I should do. For example, I want to have a small house of my own, which will be warm enough in winter. The sweater was not enough. I could make it with mother. If the electric appliance was broken, i could fix it with father. She had to live on. She needs to redeem herself and then tried to redeem others.Because life has its own meaning and value more than all other values added by the human society. DIARY 2021
