01 BLURRED BOUNDARY RENOVATION SCHEME OF XISHUANGBANNA RESIDENTAIL BUILDING Tutor: Lin Di Program: Single House Location: Menghan Town,Yunnan Province Duration: September-October 2016 Individual Work
The entire Dai nationality reside in the Dai Autonomous Prefecture of Xishuangbanna, where the pole-railing bamboo buildings can be seen everywhere. Personally, I believe that a bamboo building to the whole Dai nationality is like a room to a bamboo building. There is a close relationship between individuals and groups which is unique and diverse. Connecting these characteristics is a common way of life and a common sense of the world.Traditional Chinese architecture pursues the idea of “returning to nature�, in which there are no clear boundaries between people, nature and architecture. While people communicate with nature, they pursue fun and truth. As a result, their minds and bodies transcend beyond imagination. Under this condition, the size of the architecture does not matter to anymore, since people are able to see a whole world from only a flower or a small room.
5
DESIGN BACKGROUND Design goal Xishuangbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture has a tropical monsoon forest climate. In the prefecture, it does not snow and receives sufficient rain throughout the year. There is no distinct changes between seasons. Bamboo stilt house clusters are ideal here. However, with the development of urbanization and some internal issues, people are gradually abandoning stilt houses and instead living in clusters. The design aims to develop more comfortable bamboo houses so as to preserve local traditions.
Site The base is located in Manzuo Village, Menghan County. It is a typical stilt house, which means it consists of a single architecture made from wood and is surrounded by open lands. Such houses are independent. People, nature and architecture are closely connected.

MAJOR PROBLEMS Outdoor
Indoor
01 Blocked views The large sloping roof provides cover from strong sunlight and rain. However, it also blocks outdoor views; thus cutting off the connection between the inside and the outside.
02 Dark room The rooms are enclosed by wood and let in little sunlight. People have to turn the lights on even in the daytime.
03 High internal temperature T h e p r o l o n g e d e x p o s u r e to s u n l i g h t c r e a te s h i g h e r requirements on ventilation. Traditional enclosed spaces are not good for air circulation.

ARCHITECTURAL STRATEGY Pavilions are quite common in southern Chinese gardens. Roofs that are supported by round pillars could provide shade while maximizing the connection with the outside. I envisage the Dai bamboo stilt houses as pavilions with giant roofs and try to blur the boundary between the inside and outside through overlapping views and senses, while simultaneously maintaining the basic functions of such housing.
Original roof
Raise the roof
01 Ventilation analysis Because the house is closed, wind cannot flow through and hot air cannot flow out.
02 Ventilation strategy By raising the roof, cool air from the outside will be able to flow in and lower the internal temperature.
Sun visor
Remove
Light analysis 01 The sun shields can prevent outside sunlight but they occupy a large area.
Light analysis 02 By removing the front eave, the reusable indoor space is increased. The new space thus becomes an intermedium connecting the inside and the outside.
Recombine
Block sunlight
Light analysis 03 The original single-layer eave can be turned into a doublelayer eave which blocks outdoor sunlight while offering light indoors.
Light analysis 04 A wooden rack window can be added between the two layers of the eave in order to provide better control over the light indoors and enhance privacy.

ARCHITECTURAL CONCEPT
Public & Private
Dai bamboo houses are like villages because the rooms protect privacy just as architecture does. The public space in the rooms is used for communication, just like a public square.
Outdoor
Public
Indoor
After raising the roof, the public space indoors no longer has its top and instead there is an indoor courtyard where light and cool air can enter inside.
Private Room House The rooms are a new independent architectural unit that organizes new neighborhood relationships.

INTRIOR CONCEPT This concept selects elements from the daily life of the Dai people and reorders the most important spaces accordingly. The most important rooms are hence the central room, tea room and sitting room, which are used to establish a new spatial order.

STRATEGY DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
Living Room
Central Room
Tearoom Step 1 REORDERING Three square spaces are connected diagonally. They are three independent small rooms which combine to form a single large room. Therefore, people can feel each other’s presence in this space.
Step 2 CONNECTION The new space connects the whole house. As a result, people can sense one another from anywhere in the room.
Step 3 SEGMENTATION The two corridors form an independent indoor space which provides a multilayer vision.
Step 4 NEIBORHOOD The four independent bedrooms are like four households in close proximity which enclose the central room space where the Dai people usually gather.
Step 5 VIEW The tea room walls are removed so that the tea room can be seen from the bedroom and hence is connected with its surroundings.
Step 6 MOVEMENT PATH The separate units offer a diverse movement path.
11
MUITIPLE VIEWS Contact indoor and outdoor In traditional Chinese gardens, windows are often used to let people see at least some of what is on the other side of the walls. This design seeks to create a multilayer view which extends the limited indoor space and enables people indoors to feel connected to others and nature. As a result, these people are able to rediscover the forgotten joy in their busy contemporary lives. I try to discuss the value of Chinese traditional residential philosophy in the renovation plan of this residence. This inherited spiritual core has long been ignored in the society of Chinese culture. People's pursuit of fame and wealth often can't enter their hearts quietly. I hope to protect and reconstruct the increasingly desolate home scene of Chinese people in this way of cultural attachment in this design.

02 LIFE COLLAGE SUSTAINABLE INTERIOR DESIGN JOINT OFFICE DESIGN
Tutor: Zou Zhou Program: Office Space Location: ShenZhen, China Duration: February to March 2015 Individual Work
One of the biggest factors of living in a city is that people can come together to work and communicate. Nevertheless, due to the seed of urbanization, the common gathering places in the city of the past are rapidly shrinking. Even in the same building, public space is disappear ing slowly. O n the contrar y, stairwells and passageways become the center of communication. Due to the development of information technology, people are increasingly "lonely" in crowded cities. The modern office is a microcosm of today's urban situation.People spend most of their life at work and are forever seeking to balance their personal and professional worlds. However, this means that they look at the two worlds in isolation, as work can be boring and dull with the sole motive being profit. The design aims to eliminate the isolation between the traditional office space and personal life. Moreover, the design reflects the kind of office space that people working in the modern fast-pace world t ypically encounter.
17
DESIGN BACKGROUND This design is located on the fourth floor of a rectangular building in Shenzhen, China. It is the sixth co-working office project by SimplyWork, which aims to create a co-working space that satisfies various office needs and offers rich spatial experiences. From all sides, the whole building is surrounded by tall buildings, and the positioning of the building does not encourage light. Due to the mundaneness of the world outside of the building, this design places a focus on how to explore the richness of the interior space.

03 Arch Restaurant RENOVATION OF THE BRICK KILN
Tutor: Gan Ying Feng Program: Restaurant design Location: Kun Ming, China Duration: May - July 2017 Individual Work
China’s rapid and massive urban development has damaged urban diversity, due to the construction and demolition that takes place every single day across the country. During this process, characteristic architectures, w h i c h h ave l o st t h e i r f u n cti o n s, a re s u b s e q u e ntl y abandoned. However, if given a proper new role, these architectures may supplement the damaged diversity and preserve local traditions. As we become accustomed to a world molded of steel and concrete, we can still attempt to preserve the old elements and give new order to the building's interior in a softer way, with a reduced budget and as little damage to the environment as possible, without abolishing the historic building. Undeniably, this design does not concentrate on the coexistence of the new and the old, but on the dialogue between the new and the old, which is also the dialogue between the hard and soft materials.
27
DESIGN BACKGROUND The design is located in the Chenggong District, Yunnan Province, China. This district was only developed a few years ago and contains almost all the universities in Yunnan Province. The government hopes that these universities can promote the development of the district. Due to overinvestment and overdevelopment, the district is surrounded by an interesting mix of farmlands and mostly empty luxury dwellings. The district is sparsely populated and hence is referred to as a ghost district. This design has been prepared for a deserted old brick kiln, which backs onto an undeveloped small hill named Red Hill. The low-rise brick kiln is only a highway away from a high-rise residential building. The project aims to turn the brick kiln into a cafeteria for the college students to use. On the development area of this city’s edge, abandoned brick kiln, new city towers and undeveloped hills form a modern urban collage. Brick kiln preserves the memory and history of the place in the form of an old building, so no changes should be made to the exterior of it, even the weeds that surround it. However, if the building is to be given a new urban function, we should reinforce its interior structure to solve the problem of light that is caused by its orientation. This is also the entry point of this internal space design.

CONCEPT
DESIGN ELEMENTS Arches are commonly seen throughout the brick kiln both inside and outside. The design considers both the target users (college students) and the metaphors surrounding arches which appear in various cultures. In fact, the design retains and further explores the application of arches.

MATERIAL Silk was often used in traditional Chinese garments for its comfort and transparency. However, silk can look vague when multiple strands overlap. I included this characteristic in my design by using silk supported by steel wires as screens in the brick kiln. The semitransparent overlapping silk arch creates a new spatial order.

04 BRIDGE TRANSFORMATION OF UNDER-BRIDGE SPACE Tutor: Yang Xia Program: Public library Location: Bei Jing, China Duration: May - July 2019 Individual Work Aristotle once said “For safety, people come to cities; for a better life, people gather in cities”. This expression speaks volumes about the essence of cities. These days, however, desirable living environments, in terms of residential and living conditions, appear to be increasingly strange in cities. For instance, in Beijing—the capital of China—the living environment and lifestyles from the past have been substantially demolished, while skyscrapers built on their ruins stretch higher and higher into the sky. Furthermore, bridges connecting the city grow longer and longer. The different architectures of Beijing are connected by bridges as well as areas. As people become more and more neglectable, it is worth asking whether a bridge can be built to connect the people and the city, while also reminding Beijing residents of their city’s past.
37
DESIGN BACKGROUND As a result of the rapid process of urbanization and an increasing population, the traditional t wo-dimensional transportation system can no longer adapt to such excessive traffic. Furthermore, three-dimensional transportation facilities have accordingly been constructed so as to dredge the traffic, disperse people and improve traffic efficiency. However, the negative impact of viaducts cannot be ignored. For instance, the construction of viaducts has disturbed the urban environment and community space. As a result, in the leftover spaces under bridges, homeless people reside and illegal private traders gather. Moreover, such spaces have become somewhere used to dump rubbish, which, in addition to other potential safety problems, are rendering these spaces more difficult to pass through. Given the aforementioned negative impacts, such leftover spaces under viaducts are generally dark, neglected, illegally occupied, poorly managed and less vital. Therefore, it is impor tant to transform or reasonably utilize under-bridge spaces from the perspectives of city construction, aesthetics, culture and urban ecology. Based on the case study of the Jishuitan Bridge on the Second Ring Road in Beijing, this design uses the grey space under viaducts from the perspective of urban public space.
NEGATIVE IMPACT ON THE CITY
These sharp spines serve to prevent the homeless from spending the night.
Under-viaduct spaces are used for parking garbage trucks and dumping rubbish. In addition, homeless people often reside in such spaces.
People flowing under the bridge has attracted countless traders to gather there. Get away! You can’t set up a street stall here.
38
URBAN PROBLEMS
Actual condition
Only vehicles drive between the buildings. There is no life there. Hence, the viaducts only serve vehicles rather than individuals, with the architectural landscape used only as decoration. Ideal conditions
By redefining their purpose, under-bridge spaces can also connect surrounding architectures, nature and people.

LIBRARY UNDER THE BRIDGE Under-bridge spaces are naturally secluded and viaducts are very common in cities. By capitalizing on this, such a design for an underbridge library seeks to create a series of spaces for passers-by to rest; thereby making effective use of the leftover space. The design includes a library, small cafĂŠ, courtyard for pedestrians to stop by, a small exhibition hall, a lecture hall and a study room.
SPATIAL ORGANIZATION
1. The organization of the space begins with the arrangement of the books. Books in the same categor y are kept in an independent and open room in which there are pillars (walls) that also function as bookshelves. Readers can pass through these walls at will, which facilitates reading.
2. When spaces are superimposed and integrated in an orderly manner than conforms to a square layout, the walls are connected and there is no boundary between the outside and inside of the space enclosed by the bookshelves. Consequently, visitors are able to unknowingly enter another room.
CONCEPT DRAWING
Once the large-scale space under the bridge is enclosed, in an attempt to diversify the function of the indoor space and attract additional visitors, a square layout is adopted so as to facilitate communication, rest, work, reading, the appreciation of exhibitions, studying and making friends.

Step 2 SPACE DIVISION A seemingly simple plane is segmented with rectangles, which can provide a rich and multi-layered interior experience in the three-dimension space.
Step 1 ENCLOSURE The under-bridge space is enclosed so as to insulate against vehicular noise. Meanwhile, indoor piers are hidden behind partition walls.

Step 3 BOOKSHELVES Walls are replaced with bookshelves, so that readers can pass by and choose among different types of books. Many enclosed spaces differ in terms of their function.
Step 4 COURTYARDS From the perspectives of location and quality, courtyards are neither completely indoor nor completely outdoor. Instead, they are connected and separated by showcases on both sides.

The city is immersed in artificial hard asphalt and concrete, and nothing is designed in the library floor (same as that before the construction of this bridge), just clay and stone.
44
The space under the bridge becomes a multifunctional and multidirectional space for people to move in the city. Compared with the real outdoor space, the indoor space is more akin to the outdoor space when they walk or remain in the library.
