This project responds to this context by exploring the design of decentralized energy systems that can meet the energy needs of local communities, promote energy independence, and reduce dependence on centralized energy grids. The micro-energy hub project presents an innovative urban model to transform how we produce and consume energy and contribute to a more sustainable and resilient energy system for our cities.

Micro Energy Hub

Decentralised and Distributed System with renewable energy in cities

Master Project - Architecture and Urban Design (Work in Progress until Sep, 2023)

Location: London

Type: Urban Design and Architecture

Duration: 09.2022-09.2023

Methodology

From the distribution and shipping route of Battery in Tesla, the world has witnessed a significant shift towards clean energy and sustainable practices in recent years, and cities are at the forefront of this transition. However, cleaner solutions driven by electric mobility rely on non-renewal sources and intensive mining. Centralized systems and resource exploitation in the hinterlands remain dominant in the energy landscape.

How could we face energy in the future? Will them become the secnd oil ?

planned for the second CBD in Melbourne as well. The future development of the city can be extended and new relationships can be established. Therefore, I made use of the concept of simulating the growth of single bacteria in Grasshopper to formulate the fastest traffic road, and established new activities and urban life by establishing these bacteria and mycelia n.

around Boxhill also have family and live in residential areas

GROWING CITY - MASTER PLAN DEVELOPING PROCESS CIRCULATION

The shortest walk is designed by Grasshopper. Through the finding of shortest distance and create path to help to design a basic.

From the Plan view, you could see the different path crossed together and starts from the station centre. At the same time, new landscape and parks join very well.

Commercial

TOD Centre is a comprehensive update from original residential area. It starts from the traffic station and add commercial buildings,hotels and other commercial stores to raise the circulation arund the central station.

Underground water storage system and viaduct irrigation system can maintain plant growth and enhance ecological diversity.At the same time, it can also achieve sustainable development between the city and the region

Hyper Link addresses the increasing sensations of loneliness and isolation. By allowing residents to interact and interconnect in multiple sensory manners, Hyper Link is able to encourage a positive change in their lives. These interstitial spaces are the starting point for shared spaces; unique thresholds that are connected vertically and horizontally by light perforations and walkways.

Brunkwick is a predominantly residential area. The location is mainly located next to a highway, and the terrain is relatively flat, and there is a green area in the west, with a relatively open view. Therefore, the traffic direction and the location of the entrance are important

Rule- based System is important to be ordered into different functionality. For example, the different typologies of apartments are important to divide different people from different age.

The Linear Form is important to form the circulation of entrance and inside of community design. At the same time, it has some landscape design surrounding with the building, forming a good visual contact with each other.

Prototype Study

The construction of building is a key to realise the feasibility of design. To realise the ability of aaplication of architecture, the facade steel structure contains joint to connect each element.

People enjoy with diferent system in buildings, such as social communication, reading, and drinking. And each area are not blocked, which means it can use bridge to connect the access between them.

The analysis of the first project lays the foundation for the following assignments. And after continuous improvement, we have the last two assignments. Gamma is not only talking about architectural systems in cities, but also talking about how people live with the factors such as density, climate, biodiversity of ecological system and civic system. Among them, diagram helps me to analyse each system and how they function together. And then, the ideas and design concept will come up with full thinkings of the site.

The section shows most two important mountainous trends in the Library. With this different heights, though the area on the top is smaller than the ground, but people still have chances to go outside or see overview on the platform.

Chinatown, a diverse social place and area, is one of the busiest streets in downtown Melbourne. Through the research and study of Chinatown, the social interaction here shows the overlapping of different levels, which are related to the urban functional attributes of Chinatown. The concept comes from the dynamic, and based on the dynamic, I extend the possible development of natural growth imagination such as the growth of mountain. And follow this step, mountain no only shows the mutilevel of social behavior in Chinatown, but also shows the multi-level gaining process of knowledge and experience of people in the city. This is the relationship of library and city for my design

A living house, a building that can live by itself, can have an eye to observe every generation, every creature and every plant that lives here. In order to achieve this, we often need to closely link ecology and architecture together, so that they can live together, serve and enjoy together. After the second assignment, we need to get closer to the ecosystem and understand the specific ecological operation benefits

The ecosystem could be interpenetrated in each functional area, including independent growth and human intervention to form different biodiversity. The transition space is used to connect each region to form in between space. According to this idea, I create a space that can be created by using emotional thinking and rational thinking. Biology is perceptual and its function is rational. Sensibility makes people closer to ecological nature, while rationality makes space more reasonable

With the change of time, architecture needs more than spatial and functional changes. We see more of an ecological change, which makes the building very flexible from the outside to the inside. In Melbourne, it is very important for the ecosystem to be active in the city. We found the importance of intensify and densify happened in our site, and through the progress of design, the more things we should do is to balance our house with eco system. In this way, biology, architecture and environment can coexist

McKinnon Senior School - SECTION L

This project is mainly analysing the system of contruction details including joint, frame work , fundation and fabrication method. At the same time, the physical system is also important to be considered as it determines the stability of architecture.

Wuxi Concert Hall is a landmark building. This project is currently a conceptual scheme, and has already participated in the competition, and is one of the winning projects.

It is mainly to show the historical culture presented by Wuxi as a representative of the Jiangnan area and to interpret the architectural elements of the old Jiangnan such as blue bricks and folded roof.
