Personal Statement
If it is said that a long and fresh relationship requires two independent souls, then I have the same idea about the relationship between architecture and human. I hope architecture is alive, independent enough to qualify a long-term companion of human. This is why I hope architectural design is a process of fabricating a life system for the physical entities, a life system that enables them to respond to environmental interactions including human activities, and to escape the fate of being controlled by the architect like a dead thing. It is also the topic I have been exploring for the past five years, about what this life system is and how to realize it.

Aijiia Jade Market and Culture of Jade
Aijia Collectibles Market opened in 2004 and is a famous jewelry market in Beijing. However, in recent years, young people's interest in traditional jade has declined, and the market has gradually declined.
Jade is popular in Chinese traditional culture, for its delicate texture and hign tenacity, which make the Jade closest to human skin. In traditional Chinese culture, jade means a happy, beautiful and smooth life. Ancient Chinese doctors even believed that wearing jade can cure diseases. Besides, Chinese literati also endowed the jade with human virtues such as humility and tenacity.
This museum is located next to the declining old market, trying to interpret the characteristic of Jade, crafts of Jade carving, and relationship between the human body and jade with contemporary architectural language, to activate young people's interest in traditional jade culture.

Jade Culture and Human Body Sense
Different from the visually pure and dazzling beauty of diamonds, the beauty of jade is soft and resilient. The texture of jade is close to human skin. Therefore, traditional Chinese culture has always believed that people and jade can nourish each other through physical contact.
This museum design try to interpret the relationship between jade and the human body with curved surface, by simulate the human body experience in the building. When a person leans against a curved wall with his body, he can feel that the building is responding softly to the person.

Concept- Combination of fuction grnerates new activities
Argument: An activity is a specific event that gathers people in a specific place at a specific time. Since ancient times, various forms of activities have been an important medium for maintaining relationships between people. This design tries to achieve the purpose of promoting people's communication by creating places that are conducive to various festivals and activities. By setting up several functional blocks, they are open to each other at certain times, the closed boundaries are opened, and new activities are generated through the combination of different functions.
The transition from the usual state to the active state will be shown on the facade of the complex, as a clock to remind residents of the arrival of activities.

Concept- Ferris wheel community for autistic children
Site Analysis
It held the childhood memories of the 1970s generation.
Now all facilities were torn down except the lonely ferris wheel.
They were born to be more sensitive and fragile
They are happy with things that are spinning
Why not conbine a school and the ferris wheel, to make both children and the ferris wheel happy?
