Crafting Narratives



A TREATMENT TO A ROOM

Suddenly, Last Summer 1959

All About Eve 1950 The uniqueness of the ‘Suddenly, Last Summer’ is about a treatment, which Mrs. Venale wants to use that to cure Catherine’s mental problem. The very experimental surgery is actually aimed at hide the truth of the death of Mrs. Venale’s son. This treatment could be regarded as an architecture method that how we can cure a building.


The whole room is painted in white, trying to dismissed the two different spacial qualities as eclectic. But the whiteness doesn’t work.

We are looking for a new treatment to heal the problem. Trying to find a way to preserve two heritages. Here is our treatment, “The

original never erased”.

The whole project acts as exhibition that narrates the history of the building. Asserting their different provenance and disentangling of the different chapters of the story are to expose the preceding chapters of the building’s originality. It is not only ‘to be preserved’ but rather to extend its story. Seeing itself as embedded in, and a continuer of and an ongoing history.

The Bagsværd Church_ Jørn Utzon_ 1976


A TREATMENT TO A ROOM Here is a heritage painted in white, embedded in an imperfection spacial quality. Here is a treatment: the original is never erased. Here is what we preserve, all the imperfection, and different chapters of its story. This is what we can remember, a perfect container with its ongoing history.

The The stag “De dee his p bec


e container serves as an object that holds things from the past. e original corridor became a folly present the view of a new ge occupies the studio space. As we deeper analysis the film eath in Venice�, the infatuation that Gustar has to the boy is eply related to his previous experience. He is struggling with past. While, he transferring the feeling to Tadizo. The motion came a desire for beauty.

Thus, in our project, the folly makes people think what is behind it. The folly contains the original special quality in a new architecture language. Struggling with the original Edmond and Corrigan Office, trying to find a way to fit in the heritage.



The forgettable beauty of Tadizo, infatuated with a suppressed desires bubble to the surface. A desire of something he couldn’t reach, slowly losing control. That is a beauty light up an abandoned city, as well as Gustar’s heart. This project is about a journey to find such beauty in an abandoned heritage. Skylight, void, view frame…… what can you see through the emptiness? A beauty like Tadzio. But it only presents the view, any direct physical access is been prevented. It is expensive to get to the beauty, the desire in your heart.


SANITIZED REALITY we found a human and have removed its plaster and conviction. It is now just the concentrated extract. Pure. Quite expensive to be completely honest. But it is here, and we are currently poking at it with a stick, trying to understand what is left, and what it has become now that it can no longer convince us otherwise. This project looks at what a building can be without its externalities. We consider its ancestry and speculate what it could become once sterilized.

THE FIVE OBSTRUCTIONS Upon analysis and search for the ideas through “The Five Obstructions” and “Views of an unfinished interior”. As well as analysis Tori and Sally’s project. We found one main aspect, which is a perfect condition defined by specific rituals. Thus, we seek for a way to preserve “perfection”.


Different Versions of Perfection


Steven Holl_Volume One

By treating the prior project as a perfect room, this project serves as several containers that hold the prior room, while each layer represents our understanding of perfection. In our container, we deal with the heritage in a sensitive manner. All the new pieces and historical fabric are harmonious coexistence. Even the perfect heritage is affected by the new piece, there is always a returning factor to maintain the perfection. However, the new container and the heritage defining themselves with their rituals rather than using the same design strategy. This building attends to the three ideas of the perfect, three different rituals.
