The main elements of this project come from the square geometry in the city. The square elements of site are rotated and combined, and the facade and ceiling connected in a square grid are designed.
At the core of the design concept is the connection and transition between the public space and the street space of the theatre and the private space, concentrating the public space at the front of the building and circulating the entire theatre.

Roof
The roof of the third and second floors is connected to form a whole, but of different materials.
Ceiling
The hall and the public space are connected by a unique square ceiling.
Structure
Girder and beam on each floor, forming a dense structural network.
Facade
Three different square facades are connected to form a net around the building
Mullion
Which supports the facade and glass, is also a connected unit.
Basement
Load-bearing walls throughout the building.

02 SUSTAINABLE SYSTEMS CENTER
Academic Work : 3th Year Studio
Years : 2023 Spring
Insturctor : Rebecca O'Neal Dagg
Location : Auburn AL
The site I chose is located on the left side of Chewacla Park, beside the 85 highway junction. I chose this area because it has a separate area with no other buildings around it, which is perfect for creating your own green space. And on the left side near the sports center, above the hotel and car sales center. In addition, people from Auburn and Tuskegee on their way to auburn pass through this area.
So there's a lot of traffic and a lot of movement around the place, especially on game day. Building a green nature center here would be a great way to spread Alabama-specific green knowledge. In addition, most of the below are residential areas, which can promote green knowledge and improve the well-being of residents!

03 MULTIFUNCTIONAL ART HOUSING
Academic Work : 4th Year Studio
Years : 2023 Fall
Insturctor : Mark Blumberg
Location : Nashville, TN
This project is designed for local artists to live in. It needs to be specially designed for artists to live in apartments and provide public spaces mainly including exhibition space and retail space. So we need to study and explore the excess and isolation of housing and public areas. My design is based on the park designed by our group. I was mainly concerned with the view angles from the apartment buildings and the park, and the circulation of people into the public space.
04 WEOGUFKA VISITOR CENTER
Academic Work : 2th Year Studio
Years : 2022 Fall
Insturctor : Will McGarity, Tom Chung
Location : Weogufka State Forest, TN
When I analyzed the site, I knew that the project was in a big forest. So my main idea was that my building needed to have an environmental element, so I was going to use a special structure -- a tree-structure column. And the design needs to work around the terrain line, for example with the movement inside the building can feel the elevation of the terrain changes. Therefore, I began to think and design from the topographic aspect, so the buildings designed by my project rose step by step with the height of the terrain. I want people to feel the relationship between the forest and the building.

Our project is to design a barrier-free toilet in a scenic spot in Weogufka National Forest, providing tourists with convenient use and stay. So I started the decomposition and derivation of house gable design

When people think of shadows, they usually think of how they change over the course of a day. In this project, we want to link shadow changes not only to the daily cycle but also to the entire lifecycle of the building. To do this, I chose a tropical seaside location and used copper for the walls, which will corrode over time, creating interesting shadow effects. On one side, the natural corrosion will create slow, long-term changes.change
