This project responds to the tension at Broadway Junction between the livelihood of its activity and the disorganization of its material presence. It traces an ecology of the neighborhood and seeks to expose, curate, and clarify the relationships that exist. By introducing the HRA program to the neighborhood, the project forms a public hub, drawing employees and other publics to the site. A park and a museum exhibition and collection program extend the public resources and extend qualities of the site -- its spontaneous vegetation and the material production of the industrial zone. The building is almost entirely sunken underground to maximize open space and highlight the elevated train infrastructure above, suggesting a new agenda for development alongside aging infrastructure. 02

Broadway Junction is a New York City Subway station complex shared by the elevated BMT Canarsie Line and BMT Jamaica Line, and the underground IND Fulton Street Line. The structure of the elevated station still contains the ironwork for the trackways used by the old Fulton Elevated. The station has a single exit and entrance through a fare control building located at the eastern end of the Fulton Street Line station.

This metabolic position on the city extends to the program of the building, where the history and activity of the neighborhood are reframed. The neighborhood consists of a thriving IBZ employment center and the edges of low income residential areas.

The massive metro structure contains the industrial history of New York City, as well as occupys many ground spaces. Therefore, keep and emphasize the structure is the vision of the project. In order to decrease the safty concern and have more new developement around this area, the strategy is to sell FAR to developer to create a park and public space for the neighborhood.

This project creates a new school and learning landscape for Minto, a 250-person Athabascan community in interior Alaska. By using seasonally dynamic landscape and architectural strategies, the design challenges the conventional building threshold used in Arctic climates and connects native Alaskan children to their surrounding environment. The design considers the extreme climate as a programmatic opportunity, creating play and learning spaces out of thoughtful spatial layers. The collaboration between landscape architecture and architecture students allowed this principle to manifest in the design of plantings, play structures, topography and ground manipulations, as well as wall sections and building design, generating new relationships between building and landscape. 18

LIBRARY

/ˈlīˌbrerē,ˈlīb(ə)rē/ noun noun: library; plural noun: libraries Definition: A building or room containing collections of books, periodicals, and sometimes films and recorded music for people to read, borrow, or refer to.

Nowadays, the library has multiple functions. The library itself is not only a space to store books, but it also provides many resources for people. Individuals can use the space to read, do research, and to use other technologies to find information. However, because the Internet is accessible from the home, all the traditional functions of the library have become irrelevant. New definition of Library: A public space serves as an idea sharing center, which provides public lecture, conversations, and inspirations. 36

Charlottesville has a significant arts and cultural scene, both in terms of existing venues for expression and display, as well as potential, with its hilly topography creating a series of natural stages and viewing platforms. With several community-level organizations in place to support the display of public art in and around the city, there is clearly interest in nurturing creative expression. What the city lacks, however, is a coherent city-scale organizational network that unifies its creative capacity. The project aims to extend the walking experience southward, serving as an extension of the downtown pedestrian mall but with a focus on growing the city’s inventory of arts spaces and creating not only an Art District on the micro scale, but leveraging the creativity of its residents to foster a sense of community at the micro scale, with a commitment to increasing access to affordable housing without displacing residents. 46

The decision to daylight the Pollock’s Branch stream alleviates flooding concerns in low-lying areas of the site and further stitches the site to its larger context, adding onto a growing greenway network and offering the residents a more intimate connection to the land by exposing the flows that had been hiding beneath their feet.

The iteraions we made were trying to develope the massing strategies by following the urban context. The first one is to connect the Downtown Mall from Northwest point of Friendship Court; the second one is to follow the topography; the final one is to extend the size of massing from site context, as well as considering the urban circulations.

The project targets to new start-up. The feature for this the building is only two sizes of spaces with shared amenities. The concept is to encourage these startups to share and work together. The site condition is a South-North orientation space, so the tallest massing is on the north, and the shortest one on the south, to allow sunlight for most of the space. The faรงade panel is a dual-function panel. Firstly, it provides more sunlight for rooms; secondly, it is a secondary structure and creates two faรงade faces. The most interesting point is when you see from the north side, it would look like a stone building, but when you look at the building from the south side, it becomes a light glazing building to reduce the visual heaviness. 56

The project started from the idea of a Greek architect Dimitris Pikionis’s pavement in Athens. The landscaping around the Acropolis was executed with absolute respect for the historical landscape and ancient topography. The work is organized into five main architectural “themes”: the beginning and end of the ascent to the Acropolis, and the beginning, middle and end of the walk on Philopappos Hill. We developed the project by four steps: Case Study, Hybridize, Translate, and Situate. The philosophy is the language of material; the color, the pattern, the density, and the gaps in between all represent the quality of material’s language.

The first proposal is specific to newlyweds living with their parents: There are two independent suites with built-in bathrooms on the second floor. This option offers a sense of family living as well as privacy. The rooms are spacious and suitable for preparing for a newborn. On the first floor, both the dining room and the kitchen are next to floor length windows and are situated to face the back garden. When friends drop by the house, the host can allow the children to play in the open space of the garden while keeping an eye on them. Additionally, behind the living room on the first floor, there is an independent study room where one may read in peace. In the basement, there is not only a garage and a storage/laundry room, but also a space for reading. The basement’s lack of sunlight and great sound insulation also ensures that it’s good for audio and visual entertainment.

The second proposal is specific for three-generation families with hired help: The children’s bedroom is on the second floor, in which, depending on the number of children, there would be a single bed or a bunk bed. When the children are older, they could make use of the grandparent’s room. On the first floor, retired grandparents can spend their leisurely hours in the living room, reading newspapers while watching the children play in the garden through the floor length window. The open space behind the kitchen offers hired help space to rest and dine. In the basement, there is not only a garage and a storage/laundry room, but also a space for reading. The basement’s lack of sunlight and great sound insulation also ensures that it’s good for audio and visual entertainment. To ensure privacy, there is an independent room for the hired help to ensure privacy.

Heart Sutra

Heart Sutra, by Eileen Chang, depicts a story about incest. The story follows a father and daughter’s dubious feelings for one another and the changes in these feelings, which were the evils that would corrode the family over a period of ten years. Eileen Chang’s words are delicate and never directly expose the relationship. The director disengaged the mother, whose role was an observer, and placed her in and out of the script. She is portrayed as confused, helpless, oppressed, and near collapse when facing the relationship between the two greatest loves of her life. 76

Chuck, a young man with a Don Juan reputation, brings his date to play a round of miniature golf and to seduce her. He philosophizes and jokes, slipping in as much sexual innuendo as he can. When they move to the second hole, a slightly older Chuck II appears with another date. His technique more slick, but his date is suspicious of him. Both couples continue their conversations and games, the dialogue comically interwoven. Finally a third Chuck, now in his late thirties, arrives with a young date. He is somewhat rumpled, tired and things are not going well for him. His latest date doesn’t get his jokes and, worse, she is beating him at golf. 80

Echo Echo Xue — a restaurant at the Xue Xue Institute — advocates food as a path that leads to culture. Echo Echo Xue is themed around various townships in Taiwan and is dedicated to introducing local ingredients as well as different cultural backgrounds. The menu is renewed every two to three months. The Show-Off Mural — a mural in Echo Echo Xue that is themed around the various characteristics of different areas in Taiwan. The mural, constantly renewed by different artists and designers, is the main visual attraction of the restaurant.

Tainan Month Tainan is the most historical city in Taiwan. During the era of Dutch colonial rule, Tainan began to flourish due to the street planning around Fort Provintia. Presently, Tainan is the prime spot for many different authentically Taiwanese snacks. In my design, I used a circle to represent the beauty of the Mean (Zhongyong). With Fort Provintia as the center of the circle, I used prints to depict the historical city of Tainan. The scattered and close arrangements of prints correspond with the imagery of the actual streets and blocks. The red of the background was inspired by the Confucius Temple; the overall visual effect aptly represents Tainan as a city of history and of delectable food.

Yunlin Month Yunlin is the main agricultural area in Taiwan and contains the Zhuoshui River which is Taiwan’s lifeline of agricultural development. The culture of Taiwanese glove puppetry is closely tied with Yunlin. Glove puppetry often employs vibrant colors to attract the audiences. Therefore, in my design I used fuchsia, a color commonly used in puppetry, to depict the Zhuoshui River. The fuchsia-colored river echos with the railroad and travels across patches of greenness on the mural.

Taipei Month Taipei, the capital of Taiwan, is a city that never sleeps. It is also a city that blends old architecture and new buildings. In the alleys and lanes behind newer and taller buildings, one can always find old apartment buildings. The white dots on the mural are painted with a neon paint that absorbs natural light in the day. As day progresses into night and as natural light dims, the white dots begin to glow, forming a mural full of neon dots.

Kaosiung Month Kaohsiung is the main harbor city in southern Taiwan. Metal, shipbuilding, and harbor-related production are its main industries. The city’s geographical location, south of the Tropic of Cancer, ensures an abundance in sunshine as well as a rich blueness in the sea. The sunset, as seen from Sizihwan, is the city’s most beautiful scenery. In my design, I used rectangular color blocks to represent Kaohsiung’s famed industries.

Hsinchu Month Hsinchu is one of the main Hakka settlements in Taiwan. Floral fabric, a traditional printed fabric, is an essential element of the Hakka culture. These floral fabrics are characterized by an abundance in vivid colors. The idea of my design was to represent this fabric in mosaics to enrich the sense of space. Sitting close to the mural, one is surrounded by colorful geometrical shapes; seeing it from afar, one sees the clear silhouette of the Hakka floral fabric print. 94

‘Escape’ and ‘death’ are amongst the two most devastating experiences in the author’s life. He lived in an era in which gay rights were not valued, nor was being gay accepted. These conditions painted his experiences an even darker gray. In my design, I restored the background to resemble that time. The vehicle being forcefully towed away symbolizes a home as well as the conditions that forced them to flee. The family’s imported vehicle, once a symbol of wealth, became their only place of residence; an item that was once the cause of envy was reduced to a means of escape.

On the surface, to consume is to purchase merchandise. People shop and consume to satisfy their daily needs and empty hearts. However, they do not just consume objects. They also consume themselves and are, simultaneously, consumed by others. People are objectified, celebrities are gossiped about, and objects are consumed — all this to satisfy a modern person’s hollow life. I fill up space with large amounts of merchandise — humans being one of the objects — for my design’s visual language. The old and new are translated as the old-fashioned and trendy. Through the idea of “one can buy a plant or hang up a poster of forest to satisfy one’s longing for nature,” the void which consumerism wishes to fill is expressed.

Absente: Rendez-Vous Avec Sophie Calle

In Sophie Calle’s works, facts blend with fiction. When applied in different scenes, factual and fictional elements seem distanced from reality, although not too far away. In the work, there is a circulating conversation between words and photography that articulates a rational yet poetic aesthetic. Visually, the abstract concepts of ‘absent existence’ and ‘circulation’ are essential.

About “Absente Rendez-Vous Avec Sophie Calle” In French contemporary artist Sophie Calle’s work Exquisite Pain, she exhibits evidence of the pains she experienced due to separation. She also collected the painful experiences of others and responded to them with her own words and photography. As the story circulates, inch by inch her pain is erased away and the artist gradually becomes placid and objective. This act of convalescence and its back-and-forth movement became the main idea with which Absente: Rendez-Vous Avec Sophie Calle was created. The director wishes to converse with the artist and interpret her words.
