OLD CHIAYI CITY OFFICE
Professional Project
LANDSCAPE DESIGN OF OLD CHIAYI CITY OFFICE
The deck at the West Plaza makes up the difference of the floor and creates a space for outdoor stage.
This square can be transformed into a parking lot if necessary and also produces enough space for concerts or outdoor activities.
Built in 1950, The Old Chiayi City Office is a reinforced brick structure, reflecting the postwar architectural style. After long-term abandonment, it suffered structural damage at the connection between the first and second phases. The roof materials posed health risks. The conservation project preserves original plants in the East plaza, inspired by the building's elevation rhythm. The East plaza serves as the main entrance and concert space, while West plaza is a tranquil garden for local residents and visitors.
Detail Design
The pavement arrangement is related to the rhythm of the elevation and become the recreational area at the East Plaza.

Berkeley Marina Spring 2024
The secret under the soil of Berkeley Marina
REIMAGINING BERKELEY MARINA
SITE PLAN
The Berkeley Marina, once a landfill for the city, holds layers of family waste and construction debris buried beneath the soil. At Cesar Chavez Park, a flare station continues to burn the gas produced from the remnants underground, a silent testament to its past. This project seeks to honor that history by reshaping the hill into an amphitheater, following the patterns of the gas lines. Through this design, visitors will be invited to feel, experience, and reflect on the hidden story of the Berkeley Marina's transformation.

The community under I-10 Highway
GREEN BELT MUSIC SWALE
Master Studio Project
Treme stands as a historic African American community, constituting the origin of Blue Jazz and Secondline parades in New Orleans. The community faced significant disruption in the 1950s when the construction of the I-10 highway bisected it, leading to the demise of local black-owned businesses. The removal of hundreds of oak trees along North Claiborne Avenue, which once stood at the heart of the community, resulted in the loss of a cherished public space for residents. Consequently, the intrusion of noise, air pollution, and the imposing presence of concrete infrastructure became integral aspects of their daily lives, effectively overshadowing the community's narrative.
This project seeks to rectify the historical displacement caused by the I-10 highway by its removal, thereby restoring the green public space to the community. The rejuvenated area will serve as the foundation for Second-line parades and an outdoor Jazz music theater.

- The transformation from single private space to public open space
The brown belt garden of the wash has been transformed into a public corridors that links different communities and serves as a gathering spot for neighbors to engage with one another. By augmenting the amount of permeable land, the infiltration capacity of urban areas is enhanced.
The recycled water obtained from residential communities will be utilized for the vegetation in the wash corridors and the public golf course.

The core of traditional culture
ZAFIMANIRY TEZA
Architecture Studio Project
T he cyclones that hit Madagascar usually kill plenty of lives and cause serious economic loss every year. The inefficient government cannot handle the damage after the cyclones. Because of the severe environment issue, madagascar is listed as the vulnerable ecosystem.
The young aborigines face the financial difficulties for a long term. Although their extraordinary wood crafts are recognized as an intangible heritage by UNESCO, they still remain in poverty because of the lack of education resources. They can't earn enough money from selling wood carving due to unfair trade. Therefore, this project will focus on the social problems and the development of local industries.

SISYPHUS ISLANDS
Architecture Studio Project
Sisyphus island is a mechanical island floating on the sea day and night. The machine uses hydro power and wind energy. Wind, light, water composed the daily lives of the residents in the island. They sail to sea for fishing at day time when the giant gate open by the device. The wings on top of the island produce enough ventilation for the interior chambers. After the sun goes down, the island closes the gate and drifts with sail canvas beside the structure. Citizens live in the island repeating the routine day by day to travel around the world.
