Taicheng Museum 2015/11 Nanjing, China Individual work
There is an obvious fault scarp (height difference) between the building base and the surroundings. The population of the old district on one side is mainly the old people and the children. The outline of the fault scarp is a pentagon, five sides and three angle relations: parallel, vertical and intersecting. The walls of two directions in the surroundings have parallel sides, which inspire me to think about dividing the base in accordance with the directions of the city walls. Give the wall-like materials onto the most outstanding mass in accordance with city walls while maintaining its own style.

Council Chamber Perspective This institution studio starts from two E-words: Egalitarian and Equanimity which have several synonyms that is clamness, serenity and tranquilty. Thus, I hope to bring such tone to this romantic historical block in Burlington. The Burlington City has an old city hall already but right now the city has a debate for a more usable City Hall plaza and since it was built in 1928, with its neo-Classical and Georgian Revival style, the elevation on Church St. should be considered carefully. In this project, I separate civic function and administrative office into two massing, box and form. Box is more public and has clean plan while form is more dramatic and I hope, it could be a focus of the city hall park. Also, the Council Chamber on the first floor is more flexible than the one in the old building and it's welcoming anyone go through and pass by.

Watchtower is on the land, for future need, the boxes underwater wil be built as an extension of function. Each boxes can be a shield and a secret garden. Watchtower means union and group, meanwhile, boxes in the water represent isolation. They are designed to be a space with joy that more people can be attracted. Therefore, boxes in the water would be an other way to accumulate people, broaden people's social circle.
