[ 02 INFORMATION METROPOLIS ] Urban Design -------- transforming and reconstructing an information-technology-intensive area 7-Week Group Work Contribution: Concept 50% Drawng 50% Modeling 50% Fabricating 50% Instructor: Qiang Sheng, Wei Sun Collaborator: An Shao Spring 2017

SITE ANALYSIS------ CHARACTERISTIC In the northwest of Beijing, Qinghe area is separated and isolated from Shangdi District by an expressway and a railway. Qinghe has boomed recently as an information-technology-intensive area and attracting a number of technology companies including Baidu, Sina, Xiaomi, and Tencent. The particular problem faced by this site is its lack of infrastructure for everyday life caused by extant railways crossing and dividing the land into discrete blocks, some of which unsuitable for residence were left unused due to the noise and inconvenient distance.

To activate and reconstruct Qinghe area, we evaluate the construction of Qinghe Railway Station as a great opportunity, to transform this abandoned area into an office land for of newly emerging IT companies and a technology exhibition center. In bringing vitality to Qinghe area, we try to attempt the problem of separation between the two regions and optimize it from a larger scale.

SITE ANALYSIS ------ PRESENT SITUATION & DEMANDS

Data of Qinghe area, Silicon Valley and Wangjing (another area in Beijing constructed at same time with Qinghe and turned into a sub city center) reveals that infrastructure and available land for newly emerging IT companies is important for the development of information industry.

FUNCTION & TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

The function-demand relationships among three kinds of people are determined.

We simulated the trail of different kinds of people from the starting point to the destination, and analyzed the selected street with the highest frequency, to determine the function planning.

The Frequency Distribution of Different Kinds of People to Each Destination

Spatial Syntax is applied to simulate the traffic flow of the road network. When changes happens, the simulate system would reflect the result of the accessibility of the road, and made it possible for us to adjust the traffic condition of the area near the expressway.

Analysis of the correlation degree between three kinds of people and possible activities. The distance between the activity circle reveals the demand level. The closer the distant, the more they demand. The radius of the activity reveals the time cost. The larger the radius, the longer the time cost.

PLANNING DETAILS

PLANNING STRATEGY The low-price area fulfills the developing demands of newly emerging IT companies.

The rail station brings flows of people to the low-price land.

Exhibitions of IT companies connect the discrete land.

As the station brings huge flows of people to this area, small businesses get the opportunity to sell its products and obtain investment. which promotes the booming of service industry and building of infrastructure. A CBD starts to form subsequently.

BACKGROUND

CBD near the north side

After the Urban Design project, we turned to focus on a single construction in the same site. The High-speed Railway Station, as the ‘power station’ of this area, is crucial to the developing and booming process.

Investigating on site several railway stations in Beijing and their neighborhood revealed a common misdistribution of two sets of similar but independent public service infrastructure, such as shopping malls and restaurants, established adjacently, which made me realize that the main problem of existing stations consists in their physical and functional segregation from the surrounding urban area.This separation restricts passengers and inhabitants within their respective movement areas.

Residential area near the east side

In this project, I intended to design a boundary-blurred railway station with the support of the developing identity-verification technology to simplify the process of checking tickets and to enable the integration of the previously enclosed station into the urban space.

HUMAN BEHAVIOR ANALYSIS After intensive study of human behaviors related to railway stations, we realized that in the near future, with the development due to high-speed railway technology, a boundary-blurred station is demanded to save passengers’ time spent in ticket-checking process.

Therefore, future railway stations can be simple in function but complex in its connection with the surrounding environment.

SPECIAL TYPE THAT NEEDS TO BE REDIFINED----HOT

BACKGROUND This time we focused on the information explosion problem.

As Qinghe area starts to flourish, information density is increasing at an alarming rate due to the generation of new technologies. We intent to find a place for visitors who do not have enough time and spirit to digest the knowledge they receive passively Hotel is the only kind of building where all the tourists and travellers will arrive. Information overload problem should be solved in such a special place.

Under such circumstances, an emerging question is how to match and redefine the function of the “hotel� in an information-technology-intensive area. Except for the basic services and functions, an innovation-oriented hotel at Qinghe should also provide efficient information processing places while accommodating people.

We match the hotel's function with the the information technological hierarchy, attempting to reshape the the information-receiving system within a spatial structure.

Eventually, it will serve as the core site of information processing for people during their brief stay.

TEL

GROUND FLOOR -----THE CONNECTING POINT TO THE CITY SPACE The first floor serves as the joint point of the hotel to the surrounding urban space, and the starting point of the information processing program.

MULTI-FLOOR SEQUENCE -------- SPACE OF FLOWS

We use continuous slopes to provide a u information-digesting process from the i leads people to break away from thethe

uninterrupted route from from the first to the fourth layer, for people to complete the input to the output. The trend of information transmission is from hot to cold, which e information-overloaded center and naturally enter the state of self thinking.

BASIC FUNCTION VS. REDEFINED FUNCTION We match the basic functions of the hotel such as gym, meetings, restaurants, tea bars with the information processing activity.

Wi-Fi DANCER

Increasingly, the surface, buildings and environments that surround us are embedded with interactive potentials.

Capable of sensing and actuation, they make it possible to rethink architecture not as something static, but rather as entities and environments able to respond and adapt to changing

conditions,

and

to

engage

in

active

conversations and mutual exchange with their occupants.

In order to imply “mutual change with their occupants” in space, a changeable structure is created. On receiving signals through a sensor, it can change according to the needs of the user. For instance, the imperceptible changes of electromagnetic waves caused by occupants’ actions in the the electromagnetic field of Wi-Fi can be detected and translated into understandable signals, which enable the “Wi-Fi Dancer” in architecture to The picture here is collected from the internet. MEMEPIX.COM

“Perhaps the biggest change is their ubiquity: as you may have noticed, the world is filling with ever more kinds of media, in ever more contexts and formats.”

This is an inevitable trend. So how can we adapt to this change and create more comfortable living space for humans?

react according to the occupants’ behavior and provide a more suitable space for specific activities.

There are three systems to change the form of the structure freely and thus influence the space: the position control system, the form control system and the connection system.

The position system and the form control system are controled by the computer and powed by electricity.

POSITION CONTRAL SYSTEM Position control system determines the position of the whole structure, including height and angle.

FORM CONTRAL SYSTEM

Several pulley groups and wire ropes controlled by electricity-powered devices are introduced into the system. The position of the structure can be changed by adjusting the position of pulley groups and the length of wire rope that linked directly to each structure unit.

Electroactive Polymers(EAPs) In order to control the form of each unit accurately, we use a kind of material that is widely applied in the field of robot manufacturing, EAPs.The cations in the electroactive polymers are randomly oriented in the absence of an electric field. Once a field is applied the cations gather to the side of the polymer in contact with the anode causing the polymer to bend.

CONNECTION SYSTEM Connection system is formed by rubber bonded parts and screws.

Rubber ensures the freedom of transformation controlled by the position system and the form control system. Screws are used for combining all the spare parts together, including the unit boards, the plastic component, the rubber parts and the EAPs.
