The Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) is a China-led international financial institution created to offer finance to infrastructure projects as part of China’s Silk Road initiative, with a focus on bolstering links across Asia, the Middle East, Africa and Europe. The building has 16 floors in total and the sahpe is changed by the concept of Bagua. My Work: Mainly participated in the Construction Administration phase. Worked on all floor plans and elevations and sections. Worked on the design of the auditorium. Worked on the post-production of final renders.

02 1001 Pennsylvania Ave [Building Renovation] FOX Architects | 2018 1001 PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE NW WASHINGTON, DC 20004
The building was designed in 1987 by Hartman Cox and has a strong, classical architectural style. The lobby and common area finishes are somewhat “tired�. It would be desirable to renovate and upgrade the areas of scope with a respectful acknowledgement of the original design, but execute a strategic approach to integrate artwork, lighting and finishes that will enhance the building for decades to come. My Work: Mainly participated in the Design Developement phase. Worked on ground floor lobby updates, central atrium renovation, ground floor connecting corridors and elevator cab finishes.

PHOTOGRAPH OF THE BUILDING Hines in coordination with TIAA-CREF desires to renovate areas of the office building located at 1001 Pennsylvania Ave, NW in Washington, DC. The building is prominently located on the north side of Pennsylvania Avenue between 10th and 11th Streets, NW. Its monumental location and size are deserving of respect.

PROPOSED BUILDING SECTION
LOBBY ELEVATION EAST The ground lobby has very important first impression for people entered in. Preserving the load bearing wall on the left is to preserve the history of this building. With the graphitti on, people can read the local story of it. My task is to balance the historic and modern elements in the design. I worked closely with lighting consultant to give this lobby an elegant light quality.

05 Delivering New York [Transportation Hub] Penn Design 602 Core Studio | 2018 Spring Instructor: Ben Krone Group Member: Yifei Chen, Calvin V. Sheldon
The Red Hook Container Terminal sits at the crux of redevelopment in Brooklyn. As an active harbor, the container terminal represents the closest shipping terminal to Manhattan and one of only a handful still located within the city limits, but it is under threat of being decomissioned. Our proposition to redevelop the Red Hook Container Terminal looks to both embrace the development in the area and preserve the warehousing and distribution capacity of the neighborhood.
ANALOG MODEL The first two pictures shows the initial concept of the design, which are two seperated train lines. The higher train line is for cargo and package transportation, and the lower one is for traverllers. These two train lines are connected by several loop circulations, which allow people to interact with packages at several points.
B U I L D I N G A X O N O M E T R I C ( PA R T I A L ) This axonometric drawing shows the logic of the package pick up system. The vertical converyor sytem is connected to the

PROPOSED 1 TRAIN EXTENSION TO RED HOOK
CONCEPT MAPPING Development in the neighborhood has increased to the point that Governor Cuomo has endorsed a plan to bring subway service to Red Hook via an extension of the 1 train, and another proposal looks to bring streetcars through the neighborhood. Reimagining the container terminal as a distribution hub that embraces crowdsourcing and its potential to rethink shipping, we look to utilize the many transit opportunities present to energize and facilitate this new idea of shipping. Through having subways, ferries, city bikes, cars, and their own two feet at their disposal, crowdsourcing delivery becomes an effective way to cut down on the hierarchical nature of the current delivery system, eliminate a large share of delivery truck traffic, and put two things in proximity to each other that just make sense: packages that need to go places and people that are going there.
BROOKLYN-QUEENS EXPRESSWAY MAJOR TRUCKING THOROUGHFARE
T R A N S P O R TAT I O N AND THE MOBILITY O F PA S S E N G E R S A N D F R E I G H T The mobility of passengers and freight has very different spatial dynamics. While the intensity of passenger transportation is dominantly focused on short distances, freight transportation includes a wide range of ranges. The great majority of passengers movements are related to commuting, shopping and recreation. These movements are dominantly bound by the time constraints of individuals who are unwilling to spend more than one hour per day commuting. Unlike passengers, most cargo does not have acute time constraints, although some like perishables do. This means that the intensity of freight movements has a much more significant variety of geographical conditions. While waste disposal and local distribution have a limited range, it is at the level of commodity and supply chains that the highest intensity is observed.

2ND FLOOR PLAN A transit hub includes shipping port, train station that allows traverllers move between Brooklyn and New York, and deliver packages around.
RECEIVING Goods are brought in via barges from neighboring ports in New Jersey. Routing through these ports allows the parcels to be broken down and sorted into a manageable scale for distribution.
INTAKE Goods from the barge are uploaded into the vertical warehousing system via vertical lift shafts. Densified storage allows for quicker access and more capacity, and lifting the warehousing off of the ground keeps it off of the floodplain and makes room for pedestrians.
SCALED DISTRIBUTION Utilizing different modes of public transit as well as crowdsourced distribution methods, the hub brings together pedestrian transit and package delivery to streamline both processes.
BUILDING LONG SECTION
PICK UP Package pickup at one of the vertical conveyors is simple, with a phone application directing you to the proper conveyor at the proper time for pickup.
DISPERSAL Packages leave the hub through a variety of means - on bike, train, ferry, car or by foot. The ability of the hub to connect packages with people and transportation redefines shipping and commuting at the same time.

06 Cantilever Housing [Refugee
Residential Building]
Penn Design 601 Core Studio | 2017 Autumn Instructor: Scott Erdy
Brazil is failing to respond to one of the most serious forced migration crises in decades. The economic and political maelstrom in neighboring Venezuela has forced thousands of people to flee into Brazil in search of food, medicine and basic survival. The self-sustainable building is created for refugees coming from Venezuela mostly and other countries who are looking for a long stay in Philadelphia and develop themselves a better future. And as they plans to stay here for a long time, this building and the people living inside are considered as invasion to the original society. The entire design wants to attract peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attention on it and make people reconsider the role of refugee in the society.

Tencent, as the top tech company in the world is growing rapidly. As the new Tech Campus of Tencent is located in Shenzhen, Qianhai Bay area, the challange is to fullfill the need of Tencent and introduce the urban culture of Shenzhen into the site at the same time. Enfilade is used to originally used to design rooms of the art gallery. A group of spaces can be designed into a row with each space opening into the next one. The Infilade is adressed here with a main street going through the site and create the alternation between compression and expansion. With living, working, education, reacteation and convetion all conencted by this enfilade, people can explore different spacial experience on campus.

CONCEPT EVOLUTION To maximize full potential of the site, the deisgn needs to consolidate the existing feature and then organize big operational and programmatic systems spatially and flexibly. These systems, in turn, are integrated to produce a relationship between architecture and urbanism that is acutely intimate and inseparable; infrastructure, housing, social values, service-manufacturing economies and politics co-mingle to create a complex organism within a hyper-heterogenous ecosystem.

The Community at the top is for families. People who have children can benefit from the playground in the semi-public park and education space nearby.
The Community in the middle is for people who are more active and eager to build more connections. Residential areas are more connected to create more space and opportunities for people to communicate and know each other.
The Community at the end is for wealthy people who are able to afford luxury apartments. Rooms are much bigger and the density here is relatively sparse. People even could park their boat or yacht under their apartment.
