“individual third year studio project at University of Hong Kong”
Redesigning the Java Road Municipal Services Building, Hong Kong.
A public building project that focuses on highlighting the Hong Kong typology of MSBs
The Municipal Services Buildings (MSB) involve a wide variety of programs--from markets to atheltic spaces--that are stacked vertically. As such, The Redesigned Java Road attempts to draw awareness to the unique programmatic organization of MSBs while evoking surprise and dejavu for users of the space.

Case study using Revit.
Architect: Shim-Sutcliffe Architects Location: Toronto, ON Year: 2009
Designed with curves and the site of a natural ravine in mind, this building becomes the house of mathematician James Stewart.
Ths house not only references the curves of calculus, but also integrates a special performance space, blurring the lines between public and private space while accomadating as many as 150 people. It questions the way in which gathering spaces are constructed and how they seperate themselves from the private and functional spaces of a livable house.

pre-F RM
“individual
second year studio project”
pre-FORM explores the creation of form through a process. Starting with the fidgeting forms, a performance space is created.
The project begins by studying a variety of emotions through fidgeting and their relationship with specific spaces. Through iteration, a new focus was developed: views and showcasing the ordinary and everyday
Specific cut-outs highlight outdoor and indoor views, focusing on controlling sight and voyeurism in a variety of spaces
Fidgeting and One’s Surroundings
Fidgeting Study Method:
The non-dominant hand was given some playdough to fidget with while going through four scenarios: crossing a street, sitting in a dark enclosed space, having a conversation, and sitting alone in a busy cafe. The fidgeting was recorded through video and the different finger movements were translated into 2D curves, creating a diagram.
Fidgets Model
The diagram was converted into a 3D model that was constructed with vinyl tubing, wire, and sewing techniques.

(CORE)IDOR
“NOMAS competition in collaboration with Lizzy Ou, Ivy Shen, Maryam Abdal, Samantha Lu, Sinnie Choi, Vivian Kong, YiLe Chen, Christy Lu, Tristan Seneviratne, Cynthia San, Esther Yu, Harriet Chan, Lily Zhang, Sasha Pelejo, Mae Mieczknikovfski”
For generations, families rooted in West Baltimore thrived, their tightly knit bonds and rich cultural heritage fostering a deep sense of place and belonging. The construction of the “Highway to Nowhere” tore through this vibrant community, severing the connections that had sustained the neighbourhood for decades. This highway became a stark emblem of gentrification’s destructive forces, systematically dismantling trust and uprooting families from the homes they cherished.
(Core)idor seeks to reclaim the lost sense of agency and unity through design. Pathways reconnect and empowers the community to reclaim its spatial agency. Through vibrant expressions of music and dance, it establishes dynamic spaces that not only meet the community’s immediate needs, but also envision a future where West Baltimore thrives with resilience and inclusivity
