Academic Team Work Members:Mengyuan Zhang, Jiahui Liu Location: Beijing, China The Level of the Project: Senior Carring out Date: 10/6/2020 Supervisor: Cao Ting, Zhou Yinan Email: ynzhou@bjtu.edu.cn Personal Contribution: Design the logic of the entire structure, the node details and complete the entire model making and all drawings independently.

The huts in the early rice fields of Six Langzhuang were places for farmers to chat and rest their feet after their labor. The project create a large dining hall for the surrounding residents for daily dining and public activities in the rice field landscape. The design determines the main problem in the form of wooden frame and slope roof according to the intention of the hut, and then derives three structural units, which match the number of users and functional types, two-person space for private dining, four to six-person space for entrance, meal preparation and bar, ten people and more for centralized dining and public activities. At last, according to the use of flow lines to copy, combine and deform the three structural units, interwoven with the rice landscape, and expand the final building. 01

This model photo shows the structural state after the combination of unit modules. By adjusting the scale and angle of the roof of each module, the harmonious connection between modules is achieved, which also makes the overall structure very stable, and the arrangement of columns can be more randomly arranged according to the function.

Multiple Uses of the Large Public Spaces This large space is very flexible, and the concrete floor is raised in a specific position as a base point for placing the table. In daily farming activities, tables are placed around concrete pillars as a resting platform for residents. People surround the tables and concrete pillars in a circle during the porridge festival, and when the exhibition is held, it will serve as a showcase for visitors to visit.

This perspective shows a bar located between the activity area and the dining area. It is a transitional area and a more flexible area. People can stay here and drink a bowl of hot porridge or sit here to watch the festival lively scene.

Scale 1:50 Taking the oblique support of the roof as an example, on the one hand, the force flow path is adjusted to increase the beam span while reducing the beam thickness, making the roof lighter, on the other hand, it also strengthens the formal intention of the slope roof and enriches the indoor space level.

This perspective is located in the dining area. Roofs, pillars and curtains of different sizes define a dining area. Different sizes can accommodate different diners. The green space between the dining areas makes the building more integrated into the environment. The windy scenes and the fragrance of rice in the air make the porridge full of comfort.

Back to the Basics - Wood Architecture Dessign Programm

Type: Academic Individual Work Author：Mengyuan Zhang, Lea Schuiki, Karen Aalazar Location: Vannha-Rantty, Finland The Level of the Project: Master Carring out Date: 20/12/2021 Supervisor: Pekka Heikkinen Email: Pekka.heikkinen@aalto.fi

The project tries to examine the relationship between spatial characters and the spirituality of the users. The representation of a narrative: people who tired of urban life travel a long way to find a mysterious meditation house. After scaling different cell levels of meditation, they finally come into the top viewing cell in the middle of the coast and step into their inner world. This project hopes to find a space where one can touch his inner self, or feel himself as an independent being. When one feels tired or disturbed by excessive external information, this place can be his own paradise which provide safety and peace.

Type: Academic Individual Work Author：Mengyuan Zhang Location: Cairo, Egypt The Level of the Project: Senior Carring out Date: 6/10/2020 Supervisor: Wei Huang Email: weihuang0301@gmail.com

The City of Death in cairo is a vast and complex group of cemeteries where lives cairo poor Egyptian community. These habitants have developed a balance between between their daily life and the cemeteries.The Egyptians do not commonly relate cemeteries as a center of death but as a place where life begins. In this project, I chose a small group of local house, built a small memorial park in the cemetery between these house for peopel to experience the unique concept of life and death, this project also have an airbnb in the upper part of the gap between the residents' houses for the tourists' living experience.

The relationship of these three kinds of space is to let them have the space to communicate with each other and have their own independent space without being disturbed by others. The explosion analysis diagram on the right shows the relationship between the memorial area and airbnb and the cemetery and the houses of local residents. The memorial area is mainly enclosed by walls between the cemeteries. The airbnb is attached to the wall and is located on the houses of local residents.

04 Fill Life, Fill Architecture New collectivism housing

Academic Individual Work Author：Mengyuan Zhang Location: Beijing, China The Level of the Project: Sophomore Carring out Date: 26/4/2019 Supervisor: Yinan Jiang Email: 18810356947@163.com

The project outlines two spheres of human life: live and work. The housing prototype proposes a community where all facilities of life are shared and located outside the private unit. The structure of the building is strictly related to the structure of living. The housing accomodates peopel from across the spectrum and stimulates a mix to create a support network for the community in which the subject can be simulataneously the owner, producer and consumer of sapce. As Herman Hertzberger writes in his essay about structuralism, “the form can be filled-in with significance, depending on the use that’s made of it, through the values we attach to, or add to it, or which we even deprive it of.

Housing is a sequence of equal bays framed by thick walls which contain all the fixed utilities(bathroom,kitchen). This disposition allows further collegial partitioning of the bays if needed.Following the bay's structure, secondary partitions can be built or disassemnled so apartments can grow or shrink according to the different needs of the inhabitants. The bay is also the connnection of private, public and work space.

Private Unit

Co-Share Space

Working Space

The fixed space unit is a residential unit, but the occupant can also choose his length according to his needs.

The entrance and exit side of the residential unit is a shared space, which provides living services for residents and a venue for public activities.

On the other side of the shared space is office space and some studios.

Cross-Section

Arrangement The cross-section series of three frontal images illustrate a progression of spaces from a private room, through a shared living area, to work space. The co-living space combines work spaces and private with compact living quarters and shared social spaces, ranging from cafes and saunas to a karaoke room. The proposed housingaccommodates people from across the spectrum and stimulates a mix to create a support network for the community in which the subject can be simultaneously the owner, producer and consumer of space.
