Location: Milan, Italy
The Milan-based project is an affordable housing community for refugees that addresses increasing refugee crises in European cities by providing physical and mental support for these people. The multifunctional community offers diverse services and activities tailored to the needs of refugees, including social spaces, educational and training facilities, and cultural interaction places. Regarding spatial operation, the private and public spaces are structured based on a circular geometrical composition, which implies inclusiveness and a sense of belonging, encouraging cross-ethical cooperation within the community. By providing a warm and inclusive atmosphere, this project enhances the overall quality of life by promoting social support and emotional dependence. Additionally, rooftop farming lands that integrate urban greening and agricultural cultivation are introduced to improve refugees’ economic income and food supply. Overall, the community is designed to integrate with the urban environment, providing different levels of spatial experience: the ground floor is for public interactions and social activities, closely linked to the urban environment; the second and third floors provide residential units, while the third-floor platform is designed with rooftop agriculture.
A community addressing the refugee crisis
Italy has one of the worst refugee issues in Europe, reflected in the impact on the domestic security environment and the humanitarian crisis of the refugees. According to its Ministry of the Interior, more than 31,000 people arrived in Italy by boat in 2023, compared to about 7,900 last year, with the majority of arrivals so far this year coming from countries in North Africa and the Middle East, as well as refugees from the UkrainianRussian War. Refugees arrive in Italy mainly by water and land, the former traveling by small boats from Tunisia or Libya through the Mediterranean Sea to Italy's Lampedusa and Sicily; the latter entering the European continent from Turkey and illegally migrating to Italy. Milan has the highest number of refugees in Italy.

Social Houses Distribution
Milan was one of the earliest cities in Europe to develop affordable housing, and due to the high density of the city center, the affordable housing communities are mainly situated on the periphery of the circular urban fabric, mainly in the western part of the city, 3 km away from the city center. The project site is located in the Via Teresa Noce street, surrounded by the Quartiere Chiesa Rossa affordable housing community built in the 1970s.

Design Strategy
View from Street
View from Courtyard
The entire programme is arranged in a combination of circular elements, which makes the whole space feel more open and inclusive, illustrating the peacefulness and solidarity of refugee community. The architectural massing was defined by several circular spaces as residental units, and the spaces inbetween these apartments are used as public service, gathering and activities spaces, like theatre, gym, learning area and farming lands.

Scene Design with Architecture ELements as PROPS
Individual work
Instructor: Wenbo Zhang
Design Duration: 02/2024 - 09/2024
The essence of this design is to transform a narrative into a sequence of visual illustrations, utilizing architectural and design language. The process involves four key steps. First, I developed my story and visualized it into several conceptual scenes using AIGC (Artificial Intelligence-Generated Content). Next, I drew inspiration from these conceptual scenes to create a hand-drawn visual script. The third step involved integrating these scripted scenes with various styles of architectural modeling. Finally, I rendered the models and enhanced them further to create a cohesive and visually compelling scene. This approach blends storytelling with design, bringing the narrative to life through architecture and illustration.
Candidates scramble for what's left of their supplies to stay alive in the caves.

BOY & GIRL
How to leave the village with the approval of the Ghostbuster
Boy: ‘We don't necessarily have to confront her head on. Let's see if there's anything we can use in this village.’

Renovation of a Milanese convent
Individual work
Instructor: Shen Gao
Design Duration: 10/2023 - 11/2023
Location: Rieti, Italy
The Monastery of Santa Maria del Piano, situated in the green valley between the towns of Orvinia and Pozaglia Sabina, dates back to the 11th century and is said to have been built by Charlemagne in the 8th or 9th century. It was restored but abandoned by the monks at the end of the Middle Ages. The current ‘Reuse the Abbey’ project proposes to reinvent the ruins as a meditation centre for yoga, meditation, catering and a wide range of activities ranging from one to many days in length. Based on the concept of respecting history and integrating nature with modern functionality, the project aims to preserve the original architecture and historical flavour of the Abbey, while subtly incorporating spatial elements adapted to the needs of modern meditation activities, so that the ancient relics will be revitalised in the new era, and participants will be able to experience physical and mental relaxation as well as spiritual discovery in a peaceful and historical environment.

In the view of the philosopher Peter Sloterdik, the critique of capitalism does not lie insidecapital, but outside the sphere with which it is constructed. The interior of capital createsthe hallucinogens and the amniotic fluid that ultimately intoxicates all living beings bornin this space into this gigantic womb. Commercial complexes,from their inception,haveembodied a dialectic between inside and outside , by creating an internal landscape ofconsumption, where people choose to escape social interaction.In Euro pe, when mostshopping malls were small-scalc, they tore at the historical fabric of the city. The numberof shopping malls in China has more than doubled in the last decade, and the trendcontinues,too.All of those has led to a decline in public livability.But when we turn ourattention to the exterior of the complex, is it possible for design to break out of the externalpublic space?
This project involves analyzing 33 parcels across 11 station areas in Shanghai, to investigate the staging and classification of connectivity coefficients in metro superstructure public spaces to identify optimal development modes that enhance three-dimensional urban vitality. We introduce and validate a new guidance-oriented indicator: connectivity density and establish HPM models with public space vitality as the dependent variable. The purposeof the research is to use the results for public space improvement,to summarize thecharacteristics of humanized spaces, and to form a "feedback-adjustment" loop to guidethe design.
The urban design achieves a solution to the problem of the original building's current condition by increasing the Public Space , forming a New Atrium , adding New Corridors and incentiving Zoning Bonus to form a new renovation project.

The design incorporates a coherent planar and structural logic, seamlessly integrating form, space, material, and structure to create a continuous flow and immersive spatial experience. The primary load-bearing structure consists of a series of arched bamboos complemented by straight bamboos serving as supporting purlins, while the skin is composed of delicate bamboo strips. The design is distinguished by its fluidity in space and permeability in materials, resulting in an impression of lightweightness.
Practice:
1. Combined column: 40 bamboo poles 3 combinations, M6 interlocking bolt fixed, spacing @ 600.
2. Combination beam: 3 combinations of 40 bamboo poles, M6 counter-locking bolt fixing, spacing @600.
3. Edge strip: 40 bamboo poles, fixed with F30 gun nails, bowl cut at the end, spacing @650 at the widest point.
4. Face layer: 20 wide bamboo sheets, seam width 10.
