These projects are reflections on a number of human phenomena, with the idealisation and conceptualisation characteristic of this age. I hope to inject thoughts on humanities and history into the architecture, focusing on culture and logic, and the architecture that carries the spirit of the site is what I want. Standing at the crossroads of this ancient industry has prompted me to think more about the meaning behind architecture, to balance the abstract and the concrete, the history and the future.

This project, as an old urban renewal, aims to connect the local with the neighbourhood and regional relations, innovate the mechanism of neighbourhood, lead the development of the area and create the development support. Substantial connection and interaction of the surrounding associated resource space, through the historical corridors, tourist roads, traffic and service facilities and other cultural and tourism activities organised and constructed in series organised into the regional system. Form differentiated and complementary development with the neighbourhood. Sort out the traffic relationship, build the node of traffic service facilities with the neighbourhood, bus connection and special tourism traffic, increase the support of external and internal connection.

Upper floor centres of power
Colonel Aureliano Buendia led the men in preparing the strategic setup for the attack, with each of the 30 squads responsible for attacking the 30th floor.
Mid-level
The tower, which serves as the centre of the town's dictatorship, consists of thirty floors, and the rooms are all made of cubes.

System Generation
Draw the floor plan of each floor by randomly dividing the rectangles and select the largest rectangular room on each floor.
Take the centre of each rectangle and cylindrical surface section, and connect the midpoint of the centre of the outer sphere as an endpoint
The intersection of the next ball and helix is connected to the centre of the momenta respectively, the centre of the resulting intersection is used as an endpoint, and the two endpoints are connected as the diameter of the circle.
Take the outer circle of the moment body and intersect the ball and surface again, cutting out the inner shape.
System, Spherical, Space
Successive spherical cavities form the throughheight portion of the tower, and the tiny gaps in the façade are accompanied by spatial changes that have turned the tower upside down, as the space of the spherical cavities, which represent a new order, breaks up the serious square of space

"Not madness," Aureliano said. "War. And don't call me Aurelito any more. Now I'm Colonel Aureliano Buendía."
The Tuesday of the armistice dawned warm and rainy. Colonel Aureliano Buendía appeared in the kitchen before five o'clock and had his usual black coffee without sugar.

The surface of the spheres are made of metal , the stairs are marble . The once square rooms are replaced by spheres cutout. The curves and materials representing the new order took over the tower.
Having discussed war and conflict and focused on the struggles at the centre of the war, let's think about the timeline after the war. War is not just a game of winners and losers that concerns the rulers, but how civilians, who are the victims of war, get back to their lives on the day the war ends is perhaps a more important.
The Palestinian-Israeli conflict has been going on for a long time, and will continue for quite some time in the foreseeable future, and as an architect we can't dictate the end or continuation of the war, but one thing is for sure, and that is that the war will end someday. After the end of the war, the people living on the land, whether they are of different races or beliefs, will always live in peace until the next war. This small building was constructed on the former Palestinian-Israeli border crossing as a small commercial and cultural exchange centre, which will hopefully play some role in the time period of peaceful coexistence.
History of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict
Ancient, Modern and Present
More than a century has passed since the establishment of the separate states of Palestine and Israel by United Nations resolution 181 in 1947, so why is this region still ravaged by war? At that time, the UN adopted Resolution 181, which divided Palestine into a Jewish and an Arab state. However, this decision was not endorsed by both sides and led to a conflict between Israel and the neighbouring Arab countries. Since then, friction between the two sides over territorial issues has continued, making the situation increasingly tense.

One Hundred Years of Solitude traces the Buendía family across generations in Macondo, a town they founded. Each generation faces cycles of love, loss, and repeating mistakes, along with supernatural events. Despite their ambitions, the family ultimately succumbs to isolation and a foretold prophecy, leading to their disappearance along with Macondo.

Site: Nanjing, China
In order to connect the city and the community, it was considered to elevate the whole building and support it with four cores, and the ground floor was sunk as a wind and rain playground to connect the community and the city, which not only limited the boundary of the site but also formed a continuous space. The upper level is centred on the swimming pool, with other functions distributed around it in a U-shape, creating a visual exchange and breaking up the independence of each part. The roof garden retains the trusses with a touch of industrial romance. The urban façade slopes downwards and uses a metal curtain wall as the image of the building to represent the school, while the community façade is relatively relaxed welcoming the residents and students of the neighbourhood to enter. The entire building creates a sense of floating above the city.
