The challenge of this book is to produce a pre-emptive book about future work of mine: neither retroactive nor merely a manifesto. The task was intensively made substantial new work and then collaboratively interrogated this work. The process required both reliance on, habituated behaviors. It stages a transformative experience in which the familiar traumas of the design process were accelerated and repeated, but were then mindfully reconsidered-to a theoretically therapeutic effect. The task was designing five buildings in one block of Manhattan

I think through my thread, I design through my thread, thread is the pencil I use to draw and design my architectural pieces and give life to my imagination. My thread is the reservoir of ideas, a representation of free soul, free body, no boundaries, endless laughs, limitless joy, no fear and no rules, the ultimate experience of living in the moment. Each moment on the thread carries its own truth, connected to strands of the past and future, each moment stands tethered to each other.
Through my thread I introduce an architecture of effusive joy and playfulness. Architectural elements are disengaged from their traditional settings and set into motion by a tug of the thread. I take my thread and weave it across the site, creating a unifying structure with the power of connecting separated unites. The thread becomes strong, it holds up each of the programs while also becoming inviting and playful with paths for people to weave through this exciting new place. This connecting thread is my white track.
My white track leads through 5 different, constantly changing habitats. Each habitat is the home to moving elements that redefine spaces through time, the thread pushing, pulling, knotting and stitching pieces of space.
My white track leads to a hotel of 350 capsule units swinging and moving in pears up and down in a seesaw motion, like on and off switches. Up, you may enter and down, you may stay. The unites are peered according to its scale and Wight in order to get the balance of the structure
My white track leads to a place of fitness which is a labyrinth of 55 tubes the labyrinth is made of L-connectors,U-shapes and Rectangle-Extrusions.Aggregating and forming the Play with Gravity Tunnel, Indoor Skydiving Tunnel, Balance Tunnel, Illusion Tunnel all those tunnels held by the structural thread
My white track leads to, a place of cult a gallery capsules of 250 mechanisms move 250 colorful, interactive galleries, along in a loop. The galleries are suspended from the structural thread with long cables.
My white track leads to the storage carpet of the amethyst where you can store your own amethyst its 15,000m of threaded fabric stitched 20 times to the structural thread , storing 2,600 Amethysts.
My white track leads to the retail, designers boutiques of 330 capsules suspended and hanged from the structural thread.
