University of Pennsylvania Weitzman School Of Design Project MSD - ADD Studio Date of Project: November. 2020 - January. 2021 Site: Shanghai, China Instructor: Hanning Liu Team: Kai Wu, Yuqian Gao
The project started with design research focusing on car oesthelics and crealed new spatial typology exploring relationships between machine and human, We selected 3 aesthelic details, interlocking, nesting, converging, and specific design techniques are developed through various lleralions. We explored different possibilities of these details and techniques to develop an abject intending lor delicate integrations. We also studied materials from car industry and tested them in the details. Then we proposed to apply these techniques in architeclural scale. We designed a communily cenire whose program is mainly car exhibition. The exterior sufaces has been carefully designed through aesthetics lechniques we researched. Aesthelical seams are flowing on the surface and theses seams also connected wilh structural details from visual and functional aspect.
Seams references and analysis Japanese anime is a major influence on pop culture as well, inspiring many Hollywood blockbuster movies. The fusion of art, narrative and imaginary technology creates an opportunity for other worldly aesthetics. The other part chose the EVA No.1 as an example. The NO.1 EVA machine has a combination of mechanical and curve beauty. The hardness of the mecha lines and the special line beauty formed by the flow of the human body are what we are willing to study.
Through studying details in contempoary culture and shift them into the discipline and scale of the detail of architecture. We will start with the detail of the finest surface on automobile and expand the detail to a volume and finally to the experience. McLaren P1 was selected as a case study, three facades of P1 were studied, and different line types were extracted for research and analysis. Finally, I rebuilt the front part of P1 through Maya, so that I have a better understanding of the interface between faces and the transformation of materials. The sense of streamliness in the P1 appearance is one of the very important components.

Facade formation: We analyze the line draft of the picture after ostgram, analyze different line types and layer them through linear research, and finally create an object. This object is the foundation of our facade. The morphology of the entire building is formed according to the shape of the bank of the Huangpu River, and the shell elements are extracted. Finally, the created objects are attached to the basic shape of the building to form our building. This is the architectural language we created. This allows the flow of the facade to be logical and controlled.

Some parts of the facade was poked by structual volumes which not only play a role in supporting interior structure, but also create a contrast between the soft seams and the sharp edge. The volumes are acting as the primary structure of the building are human spaces are nesting wtith them. A dichotomy between human and machine is created regaring these two kinds of spaces. And we further developed the relationship with various interactions between car and human. There are also some raised ventilation ducts on the facade, which can be seen in the model.

02 AFANG PALACE Interpreting China's Qin Dynasty with skyscraper Competition Project Beyond Reality Date of Project: August. 2020 - September. 2020 Site: Xian, Shanxi, China Instructor: Yun Lu Individual Project
In 2225, the first feudal dynasty was born in mainland China: Qin Dynasty. Since then, Chinese architecture has entered a new era. As the material carrier of the emperor's power, a group of distinct buildings like the palace was born. The Afang Palace was there to begin construction. However, this magnificent palace has disappeared in history. Many experts are eager to rebuild the Afang Palace and restore the largest palace complex in the world. And this project is my interpretation of this building whcich existed 2000 years ago.
The Connection between Qin Dynasty and Dystopia The Qin Dynasty (BC227-BC207) was the first centralized empire in Chinese history. However, due to the too strict laws and tyranny, ordinary people in Qin were miserable, which caused more and more domestic resistance. As a product of Qin Shihuang's tyranny, Afang Palace not only reflects the political system of the Qin Dynasty, but also reflects the ultimate interpretation of architecture by the Chinese more than 2,000 years ago. However, due to the lack of advanced technology at that time, the entire palace was loaded with wooden structures, which were all weathered and decayed in 2000. Due to the backward construction technology, people now can no longer see the original appearance of the world's largest palace complex more than 2,000 years ago.The purpose of this project is to reproduce the largest palace complex in the world that has disappeared in history through the form of super high-rise buildings. And I want to express my understanding of the ancient class system through this building, and at the same time try to find a concept of modern architecture to interpret it.
Emperor Qin Shih politician who com unification of Ch first time.

Q1: What was the architecture of the Qin Dynasty at that time? The architectural types in the Qin and Han Dynasties were dominated by capitals, palaces, sacrificial buildings, and tombs. At the end of the Han Dynasty, Buddhist buildings appeared. In addition to these four main architectural forms, the Qin Dynasty also repaired the previous defensive projects, which is the famous Great Wall. It can be seen that the architecture of the Qin Dynasty is magnificent and huge. Each building occupies a huge area, giving people a very strong sense of oppression. With the advancement of science and technology, the building is no longer a single horizontal development and spread, but gradually develops vertically. More and more skyscrapers appear in the city, forming landmark buildings. As a symbol of imperial power, Afang Palace must be a huge and magnificent super high-rise building in the era when technology has surpassed modern technology.
Q2: What is the internal logic of the building? How can hierarchy be reflected? The class or hierarchy formed by the feudal monarchy still exists in our society until now. History has argued over and over again that it is difficult to achieve a utopia for everyone equal. Many dystopian works were born from this, and I can feel their attack on the hierarchy in these works. So I also want to express my irony of the class system through architecture like those predecessors. The Qin Dynasty had a very strict construction system. The houses that people of different classes can live in are different, not only in the appearance of the building, but also in the construction techniques and structure of the house, and even the height of the roof is strictly controlled.
Q3: What are the similarities between dystopia and the Qin Dynasty system? There are many similarities between them. I listed five typical characteristics, namely: social system, suppression of riots, freedom of speech, human rights and class system.

Afang Palace Site
In 2015, the ancient river ditch was discovered at the Afang Palace site, indicating that His Highness in front of Afang Palace is not a complete plateau. Therefore, it can be speculated that the site of the front hall of Afang Palace was built on an ancient river. an ancient river. The central line of the Afang Palace faces south, facing the southern foot of the Qinling Mountains, and the Weihe River to the north. The location of the Afang Palace is the highest point on this axis.

Afang Palace Front Hall Research: There is a huge rectangular rammed earth foundation, which is the largest known rammed earth building foundation in the world. 500 meters to the east of the front hall of the Afang Palace, there is a tall earthen platform with a circumference of about 310 meters and a height of about 20 meters. It is one of the most significant architectural relics in the Afang Palace site.

more complicated. 2 The front hall of Afang is the office of Qin Shihuang. 3 Exquisite construction skills represent the nobility of
imperial power. 4 The square in front of the palace can accommodate
tens of thousands of people.
Afang Palace Shanglin Court Research: The site is divided into two parts: north and south. The southern part of the site is the palace area. Its rammed-earth foundation has been destroyed. The existing maximum length is 250 meters from east to west and the maximum width from north to south is 45 meters, covering an area of 11,250 square meters. The north is the garden area.

2 The corridors in Shanglin Garden are very delicately
decorated, representing the highest craftsmanship of the royal gardens at that time.
3 Shanglin Garden has a vast area and complex terrain,
with extremely rich natural vegetation and artificially planted trees. 4 Shanglin Garden has both beautiful natural scenery
and gorgeous palaces.
Second-class:
In line with this, gardens, as an important part of the royal living environment, formed a royal garden that was different from other garden types. So I chose to integrate the royal garden as a carrier into the first-class building. Most of the imperial gardens are built in the outskirts with beautiful scenery and quiet environment. Generally, they are combined with the imperial palace or the imperial palace and are called the imperial palace and imperial palace respectively. So it is located in the highest part of the entire building.
Fourth-class:
The gap between the fourth level and the third level is like the ancient official gap. The gap between them is no longer like the second and third levels. The only access roads between the fourth and third levels are connected by huge spiral staircases. The per capita land area of the fourth level is also getting less and less, and its architectural form is like those residential buildings in Hong Kong.
First-class:
The first-class buildings served the people of the highest social status and were the royal family in the Qin Dynasty. The theocracy, which deterred all things like the ancient West, has always been a secondary and subordinate position to the imperial power in China. In line with this, gardens, as an important part of the royal living environment, formed a royal garden that was different from other garden types. So I chose to integrate the royal garden as a carrier into the first-class building. Most of the imperial gardens are built in the outskirts with beautiful scenery and quiet environment. Generally, they are combined with the imperial palace or the imperial palace and are called the imperial palace and imperial palace respectively. So it is located in the highest part of the entire building.
Third-class:
The theocracy, which deterred all things like the ancient West, has always been a secondary and subordinate position to the imperial power in China. In line with this, gardens, as an important part of the royal living environment, formed a royal garden that was different from other garden types. So I chose to integrate the royal garden as a carrier into the first-class building. Generally, they are combined with the imperial palace or the imperial palace and are called the imperial palace and imperial palace respectively.
Fifth-class:
The fifth-level people live on the bottom of society, rely on garbage for their livelihoods, and are also affected by noise and natural disasters. The living conditions are the worst. The lowest architectural form is like an African slum. It is impossible for them to have the opportunity to reach the first four levels. There is no channel at the bottom to connect the upper space. The reason for this design is to ridicule those who look down on this kind of people, they think they are impossible to succeed, so they don't even give a chance.
The movable floor slabs, drainage pipes, transportation, energy pipes, elevators, and stairs of the entire palace are displayed in it. The main mode of transportation is the three main traffic columns, and then some small spiral staircases and stairs surrounding the building are used as auxiliary transportation.

As the highest level of the ruling class, the emperor is also located at the highest level of the entire palace. This not only shows the supremacy of imperial power, but also reflects the ancient Chinese people's feudal thought that imperial power is as high as the sky.
Emperor First-class: Harem concubine and Royal clan
Second-class: Lords
The first class, as the class second only to the emperor, is located in the second highest part of the entire building. Their position is not connected with the people of the lower class, and is separated by a large mountain. The area available to the first-level people is second only to the emperor, and this group of people are generally the emperor’s concubines or other royal families. People of the second level are at the highest level of the second part of the building, and most of the people living there are important officials of the Qin Dynasty. The political system of the Qin Dynasty was Three Lords and Nine Ministers system. The three Lords were the second only to the emperor
Third-class: Ordinary officials The functions are interlocking, so the second level has the most complicated floors. The secondlevel buildings are layered on top of the transparent transportation system in the center. The entire façade looks like the eaves are staggered.
Fourth-class: Citizen As the highest level of the ruling class, the emperor is also located at the highest level of the entire palace. This not only shows the supremacy of imperial power.
Fifth-class: Slave servant As the highest level of the ruling class, the emperor is also located at the highest level of the entire palace. This not only shows the supremacy of imperial power.
The fourth-class buildings are surrounded by huge metal pillars, which imprison residents on this floor like a prison. This is to satirize the decay of the upper ruling class.
The huge steel column as the supporting structure also adds a sense of fusion of technology and ancient construction technology to this building. In addition, there is an atrium in the second-class building space, and houses are built around the atrium.
As the third-class building complex of Afang Palace, the ministers who lived in it were all ministers second only to the emperor. From the perspective of construction methods, this level of architecture plays a role in connecting the past and the next.
In the Qin Dynasty, only the emperor was qualified to use columns, so in the first-class buildings, all the load-bearing columns changed from square columns to columns. The emperor's palace above the main hall is also vertical to the arrangement of ancient palaces.
The floor slabs are nested and interlaced to form a space, which fills in buildings represent
surrounding the building as the super high-rise load-bearing structure.I use the vert
ing different classes, and uses the three huge internal traffic columns and the steel columns
tical super high-rise building to express my dystopian imagination of Afang Palace.
03 NATURAL BOX Urban kindergarten surrounded by greenery Government project Zhonghai Kindergarten, Tianfu New District, Chengdu Date of Project: June. 2020 - July. 2020 Site: Chengdu, China Instructor: Yun Lu Individual Project
Chengdu is one of the most dynamic cities in China, and many architecture in Tianfu New District have become the business card of this international metropolis. Kindergartens have become more and more the new darling of the construction industry, and more and more kindergarten projects have been completed, attracting a lot of attention in the area. The Chengdu Municipal Government and China Overseas Group intend to build an international kindergarten in Tianfu New District. Our company also participated in the bidding for this project. Research has found that plants are beneficial to the growth of children. Therefore, this project partly adopted a wooden structure, filling the voids in the wooden frame with plants. Let children see the growth of plants and the process of life. Those flowers thrive in the kindergarten just like children. This is the message I want to convey through architecture.
Curiosity / Village Typology The kindergarten was designed as a network of small scale units. It was a core feature to avoid a large, iconic structure that covers a majority of the land. Rather, we wanted to create a village-like typology that can be explored by children. The small scale typology creates a space with the notion that something special is able to happen at each corner. A village creates diversity, it creates unexpected connections, and the curiosity to discover the unforeseen.
Flexibility / Modular System The masterplan of the pavilion was inspired by the rules of urban planning in ancient Chinese cities. We used traditional urban thoughts of orientation, zoning and infrastructure and implemented them in the typology for the pavilion. We took the ancient Chinese “Li” (an old area-measurement) as a base unit and developed a modular system of 8x8m units around it. By adding further units, the aggregation can grow in each direction to meet all needs and demands of each function. This modular system offers also a flexibility to move forward.

Grid module
According to research surveys, most of the space for children aged 3-5 in the classroom is within 4 square meters, so I created a square space of 2 meters x 2 meters and developed a modular system around this unit. By adding further units, the aggregation can grow in each direction to meet all needs and demands of each function. This modular system offers also a flexibility to move forward. At the same time, there is a 1-meter-wide aisle between the two adjacent units to give the classroom better mobility to satisfy the children's desire for exploration and vitality.

Line drawings learning from the splicing structure of Burr puzzle, it uses full wooden structure instead of steel nails.
Material / Standardisation: Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) panels will be the major structural material for the pavilion. Covered with a cladding, the material will apply to the strict fire-code. Large Glass panels on each corner creates a connection between the modules and between the inside and outside. A structural timber frame will carry the flowerpot and natural walk paths. A solid striation as a bottom and a a wooden, linear structure on top connects the typology to the traditional composition of a Chinese house.

Like a checker-board, the building blocks and yards alternating with one another to create a symbioses between architecture and the yards. All yards are filled with various functions, from sandpit or children playgrounds for the active children to themed gardens with benches for the tired Parents. Besides, all plants from the roof get harvested by the pavilions staff and prepared into healthy dishes in the restaurant area.
Analysis of Plant Species in Chengdu Tianfu New District Cathaya argyrophylla (Cathaya argyrophylla), also known as Cathaya argyrophylla, is another living fossil plant discovered in the 1950s after Metasequoia. People praise the silver fir as a plant "panda" and Linhai a "pearl". It is currently the only relict tree species that exists in Chengdu, China. Metasequoia has become a beautiful ornamental plant due to its graceful posture, dense foliage, tender spring in spring, green on summer solstice, golden in autumn, turning red in winter, and changing colors in all seasons. Many countries in the world have obtained Metasequoia saplings from China, which have spread to 50 countries and regions in Europe, America, Asia and Africa. People call it the "resurrection tree". So I introduced these two plants into the kindergarten as the decoration of the facade, which not only adds ecological elements to the city, but also adds color to the uniform facade in the city, so that children and pedestrians can experience the beauty and change of the facade throughout the whole year. In times of severe food, air and water poisoning, this marks an important topic for fast developing countries and should promote a path that nature, architecture and people live in an ecological co-existing.

The temperature in Chengdu is very high in summer. Studies have shown that green land can lower the temperature of the environment. The temperature in green land with good green conditions is 3-5 degrees lower than that in areas without green land. After measurement, the temperature difference between green and non-green areas in Chengdu residential areas is 4.8 degrees.Therefore, covering the kindergarten with plants can lower the temperature of the kindergarten in the hot summer in Chengdu.

The basic model shapes are segmented to form different households to meet different needs, and the frame structure matching structure layer is easy to adapt to the formation of assembly form. After the end of the world cup, the structure of the module is more suitable for the diversity of community atmosphere. Simple disassembly and assembly is the biggest feature of this residential form, and the scattered roof gardens also increase the community atmosphere.
Let children see the growth of plants and the process of life. Those flowers thrive in the kindergarten just lik healthy and ecological co- existence with our natural environm
ke children, and let children know from an early age that they should care for the environment and promote a ment. This is the message I want to convey through architecture.
04 GREEN PACEMAKE New Teaching Hub in University of Liverpool Course Project Date of Project: October. 2020 - January. 2021 Site: Liverpool, England Instructor: Curtin Emma Individual Project
This is an exciting research-led project requiring students to explore and adopt their own evidence based critical position. It doesn’t shy away from considering the biggest global challenges facing us today but is rooted in a familiar context. The old environmental movement slogan “Think global act local” could be applied. The project has been designed with the context of the pandemic in mind considering how we can get the most out of this challenging situation together.
We will borrow Carolyn Steel’s idea of Sitopia or “Food Place” using food as a lens to understand and take action towards address contemporary local and global challenges relating to climate change, societal collapse, and quality of life. Imagining ways the university community and its neighbours could eat well, together, will be a design driver.
Manifesto “By 2050 more than 10 billion people will inhabit our planet and more than 70% will live in urban areas. Looking forward, we need to find alternatives to feed a growing urban population, as the current way of agriculture, food-production and food-supply is highly unsustainable. In future, cities must take more responsibility for producing the extra nutrition. Growing locally on facades and roofs creates vital, connected communities and reduces carbon emissions and heat in the process,” say the architects.

My own manifesto image: Thoughts on the development of agriculture in the future
It is predicted that by 2050, 70% of the earth’s population will live in urban centers, and the agricultural area is even 20% larger than Brazil’s land area. So I tend to move the agricultural system indoors. In this way, the contact between the producer and the consumer is restored. For schools, the program aims to bring employment opportunities to the urban economy and provide their own contributions. Students can also be invited to participate to cultivate students' sense of cooperation and environmental protection.
