01 Community Building

Community Building | 1

Community Building | 2

The project cooperated with LMNOP Design and the residents’ advice to rebuild the community of Greenville after the fire in 2020. Our team had been studying the history from the beginning of the town until nowadays and we designed to come up with a community center for both tourists and the local community as a gathering space. The concept behind the design was to design two c-shapes to form a natural intersection in the center would be the interaction area for both groups which was the courtyard. We incorporated Engawa, a traditional Japanese architectural feature that connected the interior and exterior spaces to provide shade for summer and sunlight for the winder. Yet, two c-shaped buildings still maintain their separation and privates when they need to.

02 Ecological Care

Ecological Care | 11

The project used the roof to support several systems and relationships between humans, pollinator species, and plants. There are five major groups that this building would interact with our design, including human residents, the general public, beekeepers/gardeners, animals bumblebees, and plants. These five groups fuel the bio-economy of growth and production through maintenance care and consumerism. Our project is constructed using CLT panels, which can provide structural support and stability to reduce the need for additional structural members such as beams and columns.

Ecological Care | 12

The rooftop has been divided into five different categories, including the human box, walkway, bee boxes, skylights, and plants, for two different hierarchies of the rooftop systems, which are low maintenance for wildflowers and open public and on the other hand high maintenance for man-made habitat and extra care for animals specifically for the local bumble bee, crops, and flowers for both residents and animals, to provide the different needs for the triangular relationship between human, non-human species, and plants.

Ecological Care | 13

Ecological Care | 14

Bumble bee, human and plants have a bonded triangular relationship and they all rely on each other to survive. They all work in 2 ways. Like human takes care of the bumblebee and the bees balance out the ecosystem in the environment and provide honey and wax for human for food and products. Next, Bees help pollinate the plants and the plants grow flowers and crops. Last but not least, human water and take care the plants so that the plants can provide vegetables and fruits as food for human.

The building expands throughout the years by adding more skeletal tubes and spheres into the building. After working for a couple more years, the building already has expanded all the way to the bottom of the seabed.

About the circulation of this building, people mainly rely on the glass tubes to move around from one space to another. This steel structure outside the glass tubes does not only use for the circulation of humans and freshwater but also the main support for the whole structure.

Commerical Building | 29

This ten-story building was an office space in the modern building of around 89.000 square feet. The concept of this building is to create many outdoor spaces for temporary leisure space for workers to work in a healthier working environment to maintain their work-life balance habit, at the same time, help them have a more effective work.

Commerical Building | 31

Using curves to form a natural interloop section from the interior and exterior space, allows workers to walk outside the platform for a sunlight break and walk back inside the office workspace afterward. These outdoor semi-circled leisure spaces also welcome people to gather together while they are outside and encourage them to have a small chat with each other to maintain their healthy social life even in their work area.
