TA O B A O VILLAGE
Introduction Due to the influence of the contemporary Internet economy on Chinese villages, the country is gradually playing the role of a production workshop. In such an evolutionary process, the infrastructure construction in rural China has been developed, and at the same time, the overall style of the village has been inevitably changed. This design is aimed at the current situation of Taobao Village in China and envisages the future situation of Taobao Village in China. The core design concept is based on the existing space of the village, combining the influence of external factors such as modern media, the Internet, and automated planting production. At the same time, logistics as the most important part of Taobao will also be integrated into the entire Taobao village in the form of architecture. At the same time, the agricultural industry and logistics combine to create a multi-functional beautiful Taobao village with rich public space, basic village model, practical public facilities and attractive urban population. On the basis of not occupying the basic travel of human beings, the biggest problem is to realize the rapid crossing of goods across the city. The airborne conveyer belt solves this problem very well. Over the entire city, through the connection with various logistics distribution points and the harmonious treatment of the relationship with the residential area gradually formed my ideal Taobao Village.

Ebenezer Howard proposes the theory of idyllic city that the perfect proportion of housing, industry and agriculture. The main feature of this theory is to retain as many fields as possible while making it a perfect bombination with industry and residents. This makes the entire city efficient and uniform without excessive urbanization. On the basis of the whole theory, it is combined with the local characteristics of rural China

The large square in the center gives people more interactive platforms and exercise space. Old people can play Tai Chi, middle-aged people can walk, children can play games together.
The construction of the entire city is no longer based on the traditional Chinese rural basic building materials, namely soil, wood, cement, etc., replaced by fragments and parts of the entire house. The traditional Chinese country house is cut and then cut into pieces to make the material itself. Reorganize and stack with one building fragment. The entire process combines the needs of industrial and logistics track formation. Each building has its own vision and characteristics. New combination residential building 1

LANGUAGE MUSEUM The human language is a special and unique product of civilization, because it allows us to produce a large amount of expressions and emotions from a limited set of elements. Language is a form of communication. It is also an integral part of our culture. Language is an intrinsic element of cultural expression. means of conveying values, beliefs and customs, it has important social functions and fosters a sense of community identity and solidarity. It is a means of spreading and preserving culture and its traditions and shared values.

P r o t o t y p e s Architecture has always been understood as an actual and physical element. This project uses eight prototype machines called "protons" to redefine buildings in the city. The cooperation of the eight prototypes reflects the real-time climate issues and recreates a new space by g e n e r a t i n g d i f fe r e n t s p e c i a l e f fe c t s . E a c h prototype can crawl and move on the ground and the wall so that the entire urban space has a rich response to climate change. In addition, the prototypes can also climb each other. They can be combined with each other to reassemble into a new special effects space generator. S o we can s ay t h at th e n ew spa ce created by special effects is architecture. PROTON-I produces fog. The amount of fog depends on the local air pollution index. The higher the pollution index, the more fog it generates. The fog is architecture. PROTON-II produces a m o v a b l e w i n d s o u rc e, t h e s i z e o f w h i c h depends on the local wind speed. The wind is architecture. PROTON-III is the only device i n t h e e n t i re p ro to t y p e s e r i e s t h a t c a n b e extended vertically. His function also generates wind, and at the same time, it also generates top-down suction. It can produce a tornado at a fixed angle with PROTON-II. Tornado is architecture. PROTON-IV produces rain. The amount of rainfall depends on the loss of water and the sea level’s height. Rain is architecture. P R OTO N - V a n d P R OTO N - V I g e n e r a t e h e a t . H igh temperatures reflec t global warming. The temperature is architecture. PROTON-VII generates fire. It serves as a warning to prevent fires. Fire is architecture. PROTON-VII generates lasers and projections. It can reflect any climate change and special effects in real-time. Laser is architecture.

Conjectures and attempts for future architecture

We have been tirelessly discussing a topic: what is architecture. This clichĂŠ topic is something that people must always explore and research. Should contemporary architects realize that our definition of architecture has been stalled for a long time? Our minds seem to be confined to actual objects. But if the building space is no longer composed of reinforced concrete, can our attempts and cognition of architecture make further progress? If space is just an atmosphere created by special effects, we can feel the existence of "architecture" when we are in the special effects space. As a result, the physical architectural space no longer actually exists. Maybe it's a virtual atmosphere, maybe it's something else. Continuous advances in modern technology will definitely lead to new ways of construction. All we have to do is try boldly. Here, I define special effects as architecture.

M U N I C I P A L CO N D E N S E R work with Eva Wei
As a municipal condenser, the main goal is to unite the community around the neighborhood and provide a space that intensifies the social interactions between different social groups and different programs. To reach that goal, our main strategy is to break the traditional floor slabs, and instead take different programs as volumes, and shift them around to create recessed space that allows potential interaction. By shifting the boxes we are creating balconies facing the park; introducing light into the backside of the building; and creating the visual connections between different programs.
