BRIDGING SURFACES PROJECT BRIEF
DESIGN CONCEPT & CONCEPT COLLAGES THE OJECTIVE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO DESIGN A HORIZONTAL BRIDGE CONNECTOR BETWEEN TWO COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS LOCATED AT PROSPECT ST, BROOKLYN, NY. THE IDEA OF CONNECTION IS ONE THAT CAN BE DISCUSSED IN TERMS OF SINGULARITY AND DUALITY. ON ONE HAND, A CONNECTION IS A UNIFIER, JOINING TWO OBJECTS INTO ONE NEW OBJECT. ONE THE OTHER HAND, THE CONNECTION CAN ALSO ACT AS AN INSULATOR BETWEEN TWO PREVIOUSLY UNRELATED OBJECTS, NOW JOINED BUT DIFFERENT. THE CONNECTOR CAN NOW BECOME A THRESHOLD BETWEEN TWO PREVIOUSLY DISCONNECTED ELEMENTS ACTING AS A NEW HYBRID ELEMENT. TO BEGIN WITH MY DESIGN CONCEPT, I DECIDED TO USE THE STRATEGY OF GENRATING CONCEPT COLLAGAES WITH PHOTOGRAPH; TO USE THE MOVEMENTS OF THE PICTURES FROM MY OBSERVATION. FURTHER DEVELOPMENT TO MY CONCEPT IDEAS ARE FROM PHYSICAL Between
CONCEPT MODELS, LINEAR, PLANAR AND VOLUMETRIC.

DESIGN PROCESS PHYCIAL MODELS & ORTHGRAPHIC DRAWINGS
THE WORKING PROCESS TO MY FINAL DESIGN PROPOSAL IS FROM 3 STUDY MODELS AS INSPIRING IDEAS, NEW OBSERVATIONS , AND USES OF DIFFERENT DESIGN LANGUAGE SUCH AS PATTERNING, VOLUMETRIC SPACE, AND HIERARCHY.
SECTION A-A
TO ACHIEVE A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF SPACE AND SURFACE, I DEVELOPED A FEW ORTHGRAPHIC DRAWINGS BY HAND DRAFTING.

SITE ANALYSIS & DESIGN CONCEPT
THIS PROJECT BEGINS WITH SITE ANALYSIS ON THE LOCATION, DUMBO, BROOKLYN BRIDGE PARK, BROOKLYN, NY. BASED ON THE LOCATION, DUMBO IS A BUSY NEIGHBORHOOD WITH MANY COMMERCIAL ACTIVITIES AND RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS. I GENERATED A FEW SITE ANALYSIS ON ELEMENTS THAT INVOLVED WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD SUCH AS NOSIE, VISION, CIRCULATION, SUNPATH, AND WIND DIRECTION. I BEGAN MY CONCEPT WITH A DANCE PERFORMANCE, WHICH INSPIRED ME WITH TWO CONCEPT LANGUAGES “TO CONNECT” AND “TO FOLD”.

DESIGN PROCESS MODELS & ORTHGRAPHIC DRAWINGS THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO DESIGN A VERTICAL STRUCTURE THAT CONNECTS THE STREET TO ALL LEVEL OF THE ATTACHED BUILDING. THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS OF MY DESIGN, I DEVELOPED THREE PHYSICAL AND DIGITAL CONCEPT MODELS USING STRATEGIES OF FOLDING AND CONNECTING, AS WELL AS TWO STUDY MODELS IN ORDER TO REACH A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF MY CONCEPT IDEAS.
A DWELLING IN THE WOOD PROJECT BRIEF
SITE ANALYSIS & DESIGN CONCEPT THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO DESIGN A RESIDENTIAL HOUSE LOCATED AT 49 Vandebogart road, Woodstock, NY. STUDENTS’ DESIGN SHOULD INFLUENCE UNDERSTANDING OF SPACE, AND PROGRAM MOST IMPORTANTLY TO INCLUDE ORTHOGRAPHIC DRAWINGS IN ORDER TO DEVELOPE A DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF THE DEISNG. I BEGAN MY DESIGN WITH TWO SITE ANALYSIS, WITH SITE PHOTOS, SITE USES, AND CIRCULATION. MY DESIGN CONCEPT WAS INSPIRED FROM THE PHYSICAL MODELS I MADE.

FROM MY DESIGN CONCEPT AND PROGRAM, I DECIDED TO COMBINE THE IDEA OF LIGHT CONTROL, WHICH IS TO RETAIN SUNLIGHT IN THE INTERIOR SPACE IN ORDER TO CREATE A SOLAR SYSTEM. AND GEOMTRY, TO CREATE THE UNIQUE SCENE OF CONTRAST BETWEEN NATURE AND MODERN ARCHITECTURE.

PROJECT BRIEF
HISTORICAL CONTEXT & SITE ANALYSIS THE PROCESS OF MY DEISGN BEGAN WITH RESEARCH ON HISTORICAL CONTEXT OF SURROUNDING AREA AND BUILDINGS. BROOKLYN HEIGHT LIBRARY, WHICH IS THE ORIGIN LIBRARY ON THE SITE OF THIS DESIGN PROJECT THAT WAS DEMOLISHED IN 2016. ONE PIERREPONT PLAZA, A TALL COMMERCIAL OFFICE ADJACENT TO THE SITE. CADMAN PLAZA PARK, A BIG OPEN SPACE ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE SITE. BROOKLYN KOREAN WAR VETERAN PLAZA, A MONUMENT NEAR THE SITE.
DESIGN CONCEPT WORK PROCESS & STUDY MODEL & MASSING MODELS
MY DESIGN IDEAS ARE INSPIRED FROM MY CONCEPT MODELS. WHERE I DECIDED MY CONCEPT LANGUAGES OF PATTERNING, CONNECTING, AND ROTATING. FROM PHYSICAL CONCEPT MODELS, I DEVELOPED A FEW DIGITAL MASSING MODEL BASED ON MY OBSERVATION OF SPACE, AND MOVEMENTS.

FERRY TERMINAL PAVILION PROJECT BRIEF THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO DESIGN A NEW FERRY TERMINAL LOCATED AT 34TH STREET, MIDTOWN MANHATTAN. ON OUR JOURNEY TO THE SITE LOCATION, WE OBSERVED A SERIES OF SITE CONDITIONS ON THE IMPACTS FROM THE SURROUNDING AREAS. OBSERVATION: CIRCULATION HAS A HUGE IMPACT TO SITE AND A WELLDESIGNED ONE WILL ALWAYS INFLUENCE THE DESIGN IN POSITIVE WAY. FROM MY OBSERVATION, MAJORITY OF PEOPLE GET TO OUR FERRY TERMINAL BY REACHING STRAIGHT FROM THE DIRECTION OF 1ST AVENUE, AND I NOTICED ONLY VERY FEW OF THE MAJORITY COMES FROM THE DIRECTIONS ALONG THE RIVER.
IDEAS & OBSERVATION

CASE STUDY GUGGENHEIM MUSEUM
PROGRAM IDEAS
CIRCULATION: MY DESIGN WILL INTERACT WITH THE ADJACENT PARK TO INCREASE ITS ATTRACTION AND MORE INTERACTION BETWEEN THE PARK AND FERRY TERMINAL. THIS IDEA MAY BEGIN WITH CIRCULATION, IN OTHER WORDS, OUR TERMINAL CAN BRIDGE A CONNECTION TO THE PARK TO MAKE BOTH AREAS BEING USED AT THE SAME TIME.

THROUGHOUT MY DESIGN PROCESSES, CIRCULATION IS ALWAYS A BIG PART OF MY PROGRAM AND CONSIDERATION. THEREFORE, I FOLLOWED THE IDEA OF CREATING INTERACTION S BETWEEN THE FERRY TERMINAL AND THE ADJACENT PARK.

VISION: LASTLY, A WIDE VISION FROM THE TERMINAL IS ALSO A VERY IMPORTANT POINT. THE TERMINAL CAN HAVE OPEN SURFACES TO MULTIPLE DIRECTIONS; THIS WILL CREATE A GOOD SPOT FOR VIEWING OR JUST A COMFORTABLE PLACE TO WAIT FOR FERRIES.

PROGRAM: THE CIRCULATION ALSO NEEDS TO BE CONSIDERED FOR DIFFERENT KIND OF PEOPLE. THEREFORE, IN CONTRAST, THE TERMINAL MUST INCLUDE AN EASY PASSAGE FOR OTHER NON-TOURISTY PASSENGERS. SIMILARLY, THE POSITION OF EACH AREA IS ALSO VERY IMPORTANT. FOR EXAMPLE, RESTROOMS NEED TO BE PLACED AT AN AREA WITH EASY ACCESSIBILITY IN CASE OF EMERGENCY, CAFÉ AND WAITING AREA CAN BE AT NEAR.

PROGRAMS TO APPEARANCE
MY DESIGN TOOK MANY FOCUS ON CIRCULATION. THE CIRCULATION OF MY DESIGN WAS INSPIRE BY MY CASE STUDIES, GUGGENHEN MUSEUM BY FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT AND AN ELEGENT IMAGE OF A STRUCTURE THAT EXPRESSES A LANGUAGE OF ROTATION.

GLICK PARK STREET ENTRY
CONSIDERATION: IN ORDER TO CREATE INTERACTION BETWEEN THE FERRY TERMINAL AND THE ADJACENT PARK, I’VE DECIDED TO MAKE THE TERMINAL AS AN EXTENSION OF THE PARK. IN THIS CASE, THE PARK AND THE TERMINAL WILL BE USED AT THE SAME TIME AND PEOPLE COULD HAVE MORE ACTIVITIES WITHIN THE AREA.
