MAHABODHI Advisor

邱奕旭 副教授

The Bodhi Tree is of paramount importance in Theravada Buddhism because it's where the Buddha attained enlightenment. Using it as a design concept symbolizes the path of Buddhism, signifying spiritual awakening, tradition, peace, wisdom, and devotion in a religious building. It creates a serene and contemplative space, embodying the core principles of Theravada Buddhism.

In contrast, other Buddhist traditions, like Mahayana or Vajrayana that may incorporate more complex rituals, deities, and cultural elements, Theravada Buddhism's straightforward and individualistic approach emphasis on simplicity and meditation underscores Theravada Buddhism's commitment to the Buddha's core teachings and the pursuit of personal enlightenment.

1 The tranquil surroundings of Aiguo Xilu Road in Taipei, Taiwan,

near Xiaonanmen MRT station. The site characterized by its proximity to an MRT station in the north, a tall apartment building in the east, a small alley in the west, and Taipei Municipal Nanmen Junior High School to the south.

2 Start by building a simple cube, the decision to not allign the

cube to Aiguo Xilu due to the consideration for accessibility, lighting, privacy, and noise management in the architectural design. Strategically positions a loading area in front of the entrance

for

people

that

come

from

MRT

to

ensure

accessibility. Integrates the small alley to the west as a contemplative entrance, and uses sound-control measures to maintain tranquility despite the nearby junior high school.

3 By creating a central hollow with the "Tree of Life" at its core,

the vihara not only embodies the Bodhi Tree concept but also offers a unique and spiritually meaningful space for individuals to connect with nature, meditate, and experience the essence of Theravada Buddhism.

4 By creating a big opening on the side that facing the junior high

school, provides a space for a garden that provide a peaceful and private sanctuary for visitors.

TThe NTUST Hsinchu Digital Research Center, also known as 科 技 穹 顶 (Kējì Qióngdǐng), is a visionary architectural concept that aims to integrate cutting-edge technology, innovative design, and collaborative learning spaces. The centerpiece of the design is a large dome structure, symbolizing the pursuit of knowledge and innovation, while incorporating robotic systems to enhance student experiences and provide support in the workshop areas. This fusion creates an inspiring environment that promotes creativity, exploration, and hands-on learning.

The NTUST Hsinchu campus currently lacks a central building that serves as a focal point and hub for various activities and functions. The existing layout, with a plaza located in the middle of the campus, creates some challenges in terms of circulation and spatial organization. The presence of four entrances leading towards the plaza results in converging circulation patterns, making it difficult to establish clear pathways and wayfinding for students, faculty, and visitors. This arrangement can lead to congestion and confusion, affecting the overall campus experience.

Tainan, well-known because of their aquaculture that has take a big part Tainan milkfish’s farmer economy and in Black-faced spoonbill bird conversation.

Initially, many local hatcheries used an extensive outdoor pond system which required a larger land area and was vulnerable to external conditions such as the weather and diseases. By developing intensive technologies such as RAS that work in a local context, local hatcheries have since adopted an intensive indoor production system that is more productive and climate-resilient.

The site is adjancent to The Longlong River, located near Fulong Station, is a crucial arrival point for tourists. This area is renowned for its rich ecological diversity, teeming with numerous water creatures, a variety of plant species, and serving as an important habitat for wildlife. Despite facing some challenges, the site providing a unique opportunity for environmental education and tourism. Its proximity to other undeveloped areas presents an opportunity to create a harmonious space that fosters a deeper connection between visitors and nature, enhancing both the ecological value and the visitor experience.

1 The proposed site characterized by a steep terrain with a significant

height difference between the road level and the site's lowest point presents both a challenge and an opportunity to create a unique building that integrates with the landscape while showcasing the area's rich biodiversity.

2 To respond to the site's complex terrain, we developed a prototype

landform shape that horizontally engage with every corner of the site. This conceptual landform shape mimic natural geological formations, creating a harmonious blend with the existing landscape.

3 Then the shape developed vertically, utilizing the site's natural slope

to create a cascading structure that gradually descends from the road level to the lowest point. A carefully planned circulation path will lead visitors down through the museum, offering a leisurely and engaging journey. This pathway will be designed to maximize views of the surrounding environment and provide educational stops that highlight the ecological richness of Fulong, including its diverse animal, water, and plant life.

4 In the detailing phase, the prototype landform shape will be refined

into a complete architectural building. This transformation will involve integrating sustainable building materials and technologies that enhance the ecological focus of the museum. The design will include green roofs, natural ventilation systems, and water conservation features that embody the principles of ecological design.

OASIS IN THE BOX Advisor

施乃中 教授

Since 1962, Kuwait has recorded 98 days over 50C. Sixty-four of them have been since 2010. The hours between 11 in the morning until around 4 o'clock in the afternoon are no go time for being outdoors. Can we solve this problem through the power of Architecture?

ANT Studio from India reinterpreted traditional evaporative cooling techniques to build a prototype of cylindrical clay cones, each with a custom design and size. This installation is a bespoke attempt to simplify and reinterpret the concept of air-conditioning, understanding that standardized solutions may not be universally applicable given the constraints of cost and surrounding environment.

The fluid dynamic shape of terracotta pots sucks in the warm, outside air through each pot. The smart sensor based water distribution system intelligently drips water onto the pots by sensing the micro climate.This water gets cooled through the action of evaporative cooling by the pots. When the outside air comes in contact with the chilled water, it gets cooled and the system releases hot air inside the space. Water used by the system is sensitively conserved by using a recycling system built into the structure.

ACTIVEALGAE BIO FACADE

Advisor

黃聖傑 兼任助理教授級專家

ActivAlgae BIO-FACADE is an algae-powered facade. This facade can produce electrical energy which provides electricity to the building.

Algae are a diverse group of aquatic organisms that have the ability to conduct photosynthesis. One of the world’s fastest-growing organisms, capable of doubling in size within a day. Through Architecture, humans can take advantage of Algae.

What seems to us bitter trials are often blessings in disguise. 「在我們看來痛苦的考驗，往往是偽裝的祝福。」

Now let's take a look at how this facade works: 1. In the center of everything are the algae filled glass panels. The sun provides energy so that the algae can make photosynthesis.

2. Due to the photosynthesis, they multiply and produce biomass which is harvested.

3. The biomass is fed into a biomass reactor in order to produce biogas.

4. The biogas is burned in a fuel cell in order to produce electrical energy which provides electricity to the building.

5. Then CO2 is released and this carbon dioxide is used to feed the algae in the glass panels. This makes sustainable energy production.

6. The excess algae also harvested and used to make some products like food, medicine, etc.

HEXABLE FLEX-TRAY

Building Materials Course - Final Report 「建築材料」期末報告書

Traditional tray is a 2D-plane in surface that outdated already, because object with no flat surface will roll around the tray. We want to transform the traditional tray with flat surface and make it user friendly. Later we discover that hexagon is the most circular-shaped polygon that form tessellating pattern so the force spread more evenly and a material called rubber silicon.

MAQUETTES

Architecture Design Course - Picture Review 「建築設計」評圖

Maquettes are an essential part of architectural presentations, providing a better spatial understanding of the building itself. These scale models bring design concepts to life, allowing for a tangible and detailed examination of spatial relationships, proportions, and architectural details. These are the maquettes I created throughout the semester:
