Life Scape A place where you can explore the world without an age barrier New Generation + New Topography New York, NY Advanced studio_Columbia University_2014 Fall Studio Professor_Markus Dochantschi Is New York a Place for RETIREMENT? For the project, I’m interested in aging society which can change urban infrastructure and will keep deeply influencing our society. The title, Lifescape, is a narrative that details the intersection of events in an individual’s agency, emotions, health, cultural norms, and behaviours over their lifespan. Through several analysis of the City, I concluded that even thought, New York has affluent programs and infrastructure, it raises the issue of age segregation. Then, by locating the project on the center of NYC, this project is expected to play a role as a medium which clearly shows how our society is divided and segregated. The population of New York has continuously increased and will reach 9 million in 2040. In total, the population of the elderly will drastically increase over 1.4 million. Specifically, the elderly increase from 2005 to 2030, the number of New York citizens over 65 will reach 47% (922,000 to 1.35 million).

NEEDS, REACTION, and ACTIVATION : urban, social, air needs The Aquatic Center Brooklyn, NY Advanced studio_Columbia University_2014 Summer Studio Professor_Phu Hoang

urban needs

social needs

air needs

The Aquatic center is to react to various needs from the site conditions in terms of enhancing a publicity of the building and air right. Due to those factors of air flow and human activities within architectural programs, it is important to react to the site’s timebased air movement and programs with a park as a social condenser. The outdoor layers weaving those factors have an important role for people who can meet various events with visual connections through the architecture and park. Finally, responding urban conditions under time variations, the building dynamically activates not only architectural program itself, but also, urban riverside park for Dumbo neighborhood.

Urban Interfaith Center “Joint to appear to be invisible” Chicago, IL Advanced Design studio_IIT_2013 Spring Studio Professor_Ron Krueck_ Yugene Cha Featured project at IIT College of Architecture Open House and Graduation 2013

The project seeks to focus on the spatial problems: Modulation of space, amplification of light, resolution of scale, fullfillment of proportion, purpose of structure, and authenticity of material. The urban interfaith center is developed on a generic SouthEast corner site in Chicago, which corresponds to communal space, gallery, library, and meditation space. The project is developed to manipulate internal pressures that disrupt the original 30’ x 30’ structural grid. The final solution is to bring these forces into resolution retaining a harmonious composition.

Boat House Harmony

Chicago, IL Core Design studio_IIT_2011 Fall Studio Professor_Martin Klaschen Featured project at IIT College of Architecture Open House and Graduation 2012 The Lincoln Park rowing club has grown beyond the capacity of their current facility and is looking to expand. The first phase for their expansion involves building a new boat storage facility on the north branch of the Chicago Rive in the Ravenswood neighborhood of Chicago. The facility must accommodate all varieties of crew boats and provide an efficient means of unloading boats and transporting them from the street to water and storage facility. These functional requirements shaped the overall form of the building. In addition, with the function of store many boat, the boat house needs to provide a education facility to teach people to row safely and to make a different kind of activity on the neighborhood. It means the boat house function serves both public community and rowers. Briefly, this project is considered as a harmony between social function and professional funtion.

Waterfront: To place the city’s hierarchy vertically city infrastructures are located at upper level while water infrastructures are located lower level of the proposal. Through such placement, the aquatic space relates to human scale which becomes cultural and leisure point. The Great Lakes is becoming major element of Detroit’s future development. The development will be publicizing through this proposal. Composing different types of marketplaces which relate to the Great Lake, industry will be vitalized.
