CALVIN SIN MASTER OF ARCHITECTURE

I am a recent graduate of Master of Architecture (RIBA Part II) from University of Westminster. Prior to MArch, I worked as an architectural assistant for 4 years at a Hong Kong-based practice, Atelier C+.

I have gained insights in residential, commercial, and some mixed-use redevelopments projects in various cities in Asia. My duty included liaising with the clients and local contractors on-site or in meetings, preparing for drawings from conceptual stages to technical stages which helped me to develop a foundation of knowledge in detailing, construction and project management. It was an invaluable experience.

During the two years at the University of Westminster, my work explored the relationship and interaction between architecture, energy and matter. The explorative nature of the design studio has led me to a more holistic approach and digitalized workflow in order to understand and design in the complex environments. I have also

developed fabrication techniques in 3d printing, CNC milling machines, and the opportunity to work on the robotic arms with the assistance of the experts in the field. They are illustrated in my thesis projects and the built pavilions for the London FabFest.

Moreover, I was a teaching assistant for the firstyear design undergraduate Architecture course, where I assisted the tutor in individual and group tutorials, provided workshops in software and model-making, collages and presentations. I was also a guest-critic for the first and second-year students at the University of Westminster.

Finally, I am currently working towards being a qualified architect and developing my career with an ambitious practice that committed to innovations while engaging with local cultural contexts.

The Forgotten Marsh Chennai, India

Thesis, 2016- 2017, MArch 2, University of Westminster For the last 15 years, Chennai has been undergoing drastic urban changes following the initiative of the Tamil Nadu government to develop a world-class IT industry especially along the Old Mahabalpuram Road also known as the IT Corridor. The once thrived ery system (connected waterbodies irrigation system) is being replaced by concrete-built, metal cladded highrises. Young people from other parts of India have flooded in to Chennai for opportunities thus increasing the demands on affordable housing. The Forgotten Marsh looks into this social issue with considerations of Chennai’s waterbodies topography, monsoonal wind characters and propose an alternative urban housing prototypes that reconnect the locals to a life style with the marsh. The investigation takes place at the Chalikundu Marsh in the IT Corridor zone and 1km to the east of Pallikaranai Marsh.

UNIT TESTS AND FINAL RESULT 3.06 A series of test were conducted in the digital environment to investigate the form of the units. The premises has focused on “minimal changes maximum performance� the parameters were focused on the width/ length proportion, shifting, locations of windows for ventilation methods, arrangement of multiple units and round corner vs right corner.

The rotation in 3.06 didn’t generate much overall difference, but it has replaced more internal air particle than test 3.05, therefore it is a more balanced formation. Due to the course structure and available time, 3.06 has also selected for the project, as this simulation testing process can be endless. This series of simulation tests has drive the form of the unit and helped me to negotiate with my design studio and technical tutors as it is the result of a progressive process.

Architecture as Protest Camp Hong Kong

Dissertation, MArch II, University of Westminster

Protest Camp is a fascinating type of architecture, it’s short-lived yet pack with actions. Umbrella Movement offered a rare opportunity for me to get a sense of the protest camp life in my home city, Hong Kong, the impact was beyond the encampment, it was also an experience that the entire city had to live with. During that 79 days of alternative urban experience, we saw how protesters creatively use the city as a canvas to express their political concerns by projecting messages on the facade of the government complex, or decorate the walls with thousands of memo post-it. They also utilized the common materials to construct a colourful social space, such experience could possibly change the public’s view on urban space.

My dissertation seeks to understand how protest camp in Hong Kong is different from other recent protest camps such as Occupy Zuccotti Park and Occupy Gezi Park. It also investigates the relationship between local urbanism in Hong Kong and the protest camp at Admiralty, as it may have informed the production of protest camp, ‘Harcourt Village’.

As much as I try to keep the investigation in the architectural and urban dimension, it’s important to understand the politics side of the event despite it seems complex and tedious. Yet, it played a pivotal role of the event and I believe it directly related to the production of the protest camp and affect the way we perceive the camp.

Architecture, Energy, Matter Maldives

Thesis, 2015 - 2016, MArch 1, University of Westminster This project looks into the air pollution in Malé, the capital city of Maldives, and how to develop ways of positioning architecture within the dynamic material flows shaping the Maldives. Specifically, the investigation looks into the pollution source: open-air waste burning at the “Trash Island”, Thilafushi. During summer, the pollutants from the burning are being blown directly to Malé by the monsoonal south-west prevailing wind. Subsequently, this led the project to the composition of the waste being delivered to Thilafushi which is organic-heavy therefore it would be possible to turn the organic waste into compost for agriculture-use which helps the country to develop a more self-sustainable agriculture system that reduces the overall import percentage (currently at 90%) and carbon footprint.

The Local Gateway: London Road Train Station Brighton

3rd Year project, BA(hons) Arch, University of Brighton This project experiments the possibility of extending the use of a suburban train station which is heavily used by the local dwellers. The proposal includes forming a new direct connection with the city centre as well as adding new programs to the site. These developments should aim into long term sustainability and programs are based on ecotourism, leisure and education purpose. These encourages members of the community to use the site daily rather than just passing by for the train. Allotments and a community centre would be able to complement the existing train station.

Through this project, I was able to learn from different stages of an architecture project while working directly with clients and consultants from around of the world.

The building projects radically towards views of the valley in the north and Qiushan Reservoir to the east. The Main functional spaces are separated and clearly defined by the radical structural walls; the differentiation of systematic hierarchy between the different spaces are further enhanced by the height of the particular volume, creating distinction between public and private spaces.

GRAVITY FLOW Gravity flow wine making utilizes physics of gravity and the multi-stories of a building to move must and wine from process to process with minimal pumping.

There are different opinions on whether this method of wine making produces a better wine; architecturally, using gravity as a main source of energy to convey the product along the production line, we are able to offer the end user an energy efficient wine making process that is intuitive to each step of making wine.
