Bamboo Scaffolding Intervention

1:100 Floor Plan cutting through existing building and proposed Bambooo structure

Date: Jan-Sep25”

(a)

Mentor: Laura Linsi, Era Savvides

Typology: Scaffolding Interventionist

This project reflects the very challenges of designing in an ultra-dense city-context such as Hong Kong. It's situation in Central which houses a lot of architectural jag in it's topography is why it was chosen.

The project is an experimental thesis that investigates the possibility; and, as a conclusion, argues that scaffolding is a viable and feasible typology. The design tackles Athe housing crisis in Hong Kong, stemming from the root causes of (usable) land scarcity. a growing population and the ever-decreasing quality of life for many that resulted in the inception of more and more "coffin homes".

With bamboo scaffolding already widespread in both being cultural and architecturally accepted in Hong Kong, the next question was "how could we use what's existing to temporarily help improve people's lives?”.

Where infinite expansion and demolishing aren't always the answer, the thesis proposes an answer.

The architecture process for this project involved incorporating the pre-existing garden with its three high points and turned the complex circulation and long walking journey into an open and clear circulation with a bmodernized structure that is cost-efficient.

2

Two highest points of the garden, which included thick and long stone walls, were preserved along with other historical elements. The circulation was improved to make it clear and accessible, a open ground allowing for easy entry from various areas such as the old industrial district, new Kai Tak river area, MTR place, and sport area.

The new structure serves as a central point for the circulating walk flow while also providing an ecological and social program. The result is a thoughtful and sustainable design that successfully integrates the old and new elements, creating a harmonious space for the community to enjoy.

Tannic acid is a chemical infused in their thick and fibrous bark which keeps them safe from fires. If a fire ever does harm them, they also can re-sprout from burl tissue. Fires have shaped redwood ecosystem for a long time, creating healthy groves of trees.
