TEACH HIM TO FISH Revitalizing rural areas while inheriting Dan family culture

Location：Qida Village, Fuzhou City, Fujian province,China Individual Project Finish date：2023.09.30 Site area：50000 ㎡

There is a group of people known as the gypsies of the sea, who make boats their home and the sea their fields. Their customs, wedding traditions, and belief systems are like pearls in the ocean, connecting the unique cultural landscape of the southeastern coastal region.

In Qida Village, Fuzhou, a once prosperous Dan culture is gradually disappearing.The way of life and cultural traditions of the Dan people are gradually declining under the impact of modernization.

Due to the guidance of government policies and changes in residents' living needs, many Dan people have to go ashore to live, leading to a crisis in the inheritance of Dan culture.

At present, the residents of Qida Village are mostly middle-aged and elderly people who have a deep emotional attachment to the Dan culture, but the younger generation is rarely willing to inherit this way of life.

In the face of this challenge, an innovative solution has been proposed: to design and establish a resort area featuring a tensioned membrane structure, aimed at attracting tourists while providing job opportunities for local residents and promoting cultural return.

Project design is a tribute, inheritance, and innovation to local culture.

The fluidity and transparency of the stretch film symbolize the harmonious coexistence between the Dan culture and the ocean.

The design inspiration comes from the facilities and items of daily life of local residents.

The design vision hopes that the project will not only be a place for sightseeing and accommodation, but also a platform for cultural exchange, a base for the inheritance and development of the Dan culture.

It is a symbol of the cultural revival of Qida Village and a lighthouse for the inheritance of Danjia culture.

02 THE SHIP OF THESEUS The Four Seasons of the Taihu Lake

The ship of Theseus, from ancient Greek mythology, questions whether a ship remains the same if all its parts are replaced over time. This concept sparks deep reflection on identity and change.

In the field of architecture, contemplating this philosophical concept will reveal, as Kenzo Danxia once said, "Architecture should grow like an organism, adapting to changes in the environment, rather than being static."

In Dongshan Town, Suzhou, on Taihu Lake's shore, Biluochun tea and Baisha loquat attract many nature-loving tourists. Embracing China's rural revitalization, Dongshan enhances tourism, upgrades facilities, and harmonizes nature with culture.

Just like the ship of Theseus and the metabolic architecture, the project is located on the shore of the Taihu Lake Lake in Dongshan Town, Suzhou, and its inspiration also comes from the constantly updated and changed ideas. By designing four types of modular homestay and public commercial transportation modules, and using composite column support structures and unit modules made of factory prefabricated panels, the project can flexibly increase or decrease the number of units according to demand. Whether it's couples, families, or elderly travel groups, you can find your ideal residence here.

Every module, every detail, is a tribute to nature and a love for life, making this project like the ship of Theseus, always maintaining its unique identity and charm in the midst of change.

Location：Nanwang Village, Suzhou City, Jiangsu province,China Individual Project Finish date：2024.01.30 Site area：6000 ㎡

Dongshan Town is located in Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province, on the east bank of Taihu Lake, surrounded by water with beautiful scenery. The town is famous for its tea gardens and orchards, particularly Biluochun tea and Baisha loquat, attracting numerous tourists annually. Besides tea and loquat, it offers special foods like Taihu Lake Sanbai (white fish, white shrimp, whitebait). Dongshan Town has developed its tourism industry, enhancing facilities and services, allowing visitors to enjoy the natural scenery, rich cultural activities, and agricultural experiences.

The project is located on the lake near Nanwang Village, and tourists here are only fishing on the shore. Nanwang Village is a village that relies mainly on agriculture. In order to increase the income of villagers and attract tourists, a guesthouse has been designed here. The lakeside ecosystem is rich, with abundant flora and fauna. Therefore, when designing homestays, protecting the original ecology is a noteworthy aspect.

The primitive state of the alleyway, every narrow alley is filled with the breath of life.

The laughter of children, the chatter of neighbors, and the ringing of bicycles interweave into a lively community scene.

The government carries out housing expropriation and spends one or two years lobbying citizens.

The residents spent about a year moving out, and the alleyway lost its former hustle and bustle, becoming unusually quiet.

The alleys in Huangpu District, Shanghai are filled with a large number of old houses with poor building structures, long-term disrepair, incomplete functions, safety hazards, and no repair value. The government needs to demolish and rebuild them.

However, the long demolition period has led to the phenomenon of urban black holes.Before the demolition, the residents had a wide range of activities and action routes.

The residents' activity routes in the surrounding area have also undergone some changes due to the demolition of the area.

In order to rebuild the urban density and preserve the unique atmosphere and popularity of the original residential areas, we have decided to start with the building components of the old city area and decide to go and stay.

The demolition work began, and the roar of machines replaced the tranquility of the past.

The building gradually collapsed in the dust.

The demolished alleyway has turned into an empty space, which is temporarily idle, waiting for new planning and life, and the surrounding atmosphere appears somewhat desolate.

They are usually in the style of a two-story courtyard or quadrangle house, with a symmetrical layout on the central axis, reflecting traditional Chinese residential concepts.There are usually seven or eight households living inside, forming a small social system, with most people having blood relatives.
