Park: influenced by offices
Office and park are influenced by each other in my project: the park space is embeded in office space; the office space defines the park space as well. Square in 3d becomes the module. 4

The 2015 Problems
Long distance
Long wait in queue
Too many documents
Book in advance
Population growth
Limited facilities
The existing airports are facing several problems: • Difficulty of traveling between countries • Inconvenience of travel documents: retrieve visas and passports, expiration of visas • Travel needs to be planned in a timely manner • Border control/wait times • Work becomes digital due to costs/time hassle: stagnates economic growth for countries • Travel increases due to growing population but lack of infrastructure • Airport construction costs and timely process

Self-functioning
Transit Hub
Introduce The Intelligence Enclave: a prototype for self-functioning hub that will optimize the ideas of borders, business, production and transit for the future. • Airports become more than just a “2015 airport”: terminal becomes the city; city becomes terminal • “No Man’s Land” airport cities implemented globally: could be adapted to other city’s context easily • Eliminate the idea of boundaries for citizens • Mutual meeting space for locals and foreigners • Self-functioning and autonomous

Strategy
1: Collect areas which would be flooded in 100 years
2: Offset enclave boundary from new surroundings
3: Wind and waterway determine aircrafts approach directions
4: Fixate runways into nooks
28
5: Concentric hub responds to boundary offset
6: Gradual slope shape creates stadium stage setting
7: Carve interior for aircraft circulation
8: Program the concaved towers

Plan zones
The project is developed according to the wind, water and sun influence: wind determines the direction of runways; waterway determines the position of the mainbody; sunlight determines the direction of three towers. 30
Vertically, different programs are located on different levels to improve the idea of efficiency. Also, concentric circle mode best takes advantage of water for transportation, farming and purifying.

Tokyo New Coastline 16-Week Academic Solo Project, Spring 2016 Location: Tokyo Bay, Japan Building Area: 3,600,000 m2 Studio: What if Then: Urban-scaled Architectural Speculation Critic: Prof. Sarah Dunn, UrbanLab

Water Scenario 1
38
What if Superstudio’s Niagara O L’architettura Riflessa took advantage of the waterfall for power and became inhabitable instead of just a reflective wall on water? Then, it would become a selffunctioning city using hydroelectric power from the waterfall, and people would live on water, under water or even behind waterfall, which would provide a unique lifestyle. 39
Water Scenario 2
40
What if Kiyonori Kikutake’s Ocean City was not only a response to increasing population but also a movable enclave on water with different cores and styles? Then, the whole city would become a huge ship floating on water, which would be safe when water level rises or tsunami comes. With different core space, people would also have different living experience within the same enclosure. 41
Water Scenario 3
42
What if Frei Otto & Kenzo Tange’s Arctic City created its own inhabitable landscape like lakes, hills, forests, etc within severe arctic atmosphere? Then, people could enjoy the arctic natural scenery and the dome inhabitable scenery at the same time. The warmer underground life around water would also be unique.
43
Concept
Site research I: flooded areas when sea level rises by 8m
Site research II: areas with high population density should be protected Highest Very high High Low Very low Lowest
Issues: As an island nation located in the Pacific volcanic seismic belt, Japan faces an increased risk to tsunamis. This is being made worse due to sea level rise, putting people’s lives in danger.
44
Proposal: build a wall city!
What if we built a wall to protect the low altitude but with high population density areas? Then, if we built this wall to resist sea level rise and tsunami, why don’t we make this infrastructure inhabitable, which reduces the population growth pressure as well?
