The project starts from the form studies with different materials and follows with the design of a 17 by 11 inch storage cabinet. Both the massing model and cabinet function as the precedents for the duplex design, which finally translated into the form and private archive space of the house

Urban Design of The Middle Road in Xiaodao District 2016 Excellent Award in Asia Architecture & Urbanism Alliance 6+1 Joint Graduation Design Competition, 2016 Spring, Thesis SITE: Xiaodao District, Shaoguan, Guangdong, P.R.China NSTRUCTOR: Associate Prof. Ping Qi & Erti Luo TEAM: Yuechan He, Minyi Chen, Chengyu Wu ROLE: Team Leader, Preliminary Typological Research in Xiaodao, Conceptual Design, Detail Design, Technical Drawings, Diagram, 3D Model, Renderings.

The MOBILITY of Cars in The Middle Road Is INFORMALLY Declining N

The traffic system is typically through traffic which is formally designed. The transverse traffic is heavy. As the width of this island is narrow, cars usually prefer the roads near the rivers. The energetic points also show that the middle road is always full of people, which shows that it has the potential benefits to serve the public.

There Are Three Types of Mobility with Rivers Type A. INDEPENDENT. The mobility of its roads near the rivers are much heavier than the middle. Also, the heaviest traffic is the through traffic.

Type B. INTEGRATED. The mobility of its roads near the rivers are much lower, and the traffic is more concentrate in the inner land.

Type C. INTERFERED. The mobility of its roads are much equal to each other as the roads are dense along with the rivers or even against them.

The MOBILITY of The Xiaodao District Before and After The middle road show much more DYNAMIC than the roads near the rivers, and people are more willing to enjoy public lives there.

The mobility of cars in the roads near the rivers should be enhanced, while the middle road should become much more WALKABLE. The length and widths of the middle roads should be INCREASED, through creating more public space near it, and reusing the void space.

This project makes temples become the CATALYST for interaction and communication to achieve the co-existence and interaction of multiple events, promoting the vitality and tolerance of the place.

Every temple would have its own THEME based on the current situation. The 'market temple' is based on bazaars nearby, the 'fishing temple' is based on the fishing pool, and the 'garden temple' is based on mountains etc.

The INFORMAL Activities Around The Monumental Temples Because of the new public space, people could have different kinds of informal activities around the temples.

New buildings are integrated with temples and the current residence, through similar texture and underground system.

Each temple would have its own direct theme(program) to build a colorful environment for the whole and become a public-activity node.

The Free Designing of The Ground Plan As one of the design elements in Five points towards a new architecture, the interior space division has an autonomic power to manage architecture elements of itself, such as walls, windows, stairs, ceilings and even furnitures.

6-6

Relationship Between A Form & Its Autonomy The form, or topology, is a tool to control the shape and structure of the building to fit in the surroundings. The autonomy is the flexibility and INFORMALITY that comes bottom up from an within logic.

Once in 50 Years

Various Relation Between Buildings and Lianjiang River Lianjiang river flows across the old town area and the new. After the master planning, the river banks of the river would be diverse and the relationship between buildings and river would improve. People could easily get to enjoy the river, and the city lives could get so much benefits from it.

Flood-able Waterfront Public Space According to the standard of the 'once in 30 years' flood line, there are places with equipment for people to stay above it. And people could enjoy the waterfront view, running alongside the keep fit way. Additionally, usually people could walk besides the river or sit in the sunken plaza.
