RECALIBRATING PUBLIC PARKS High-rise Living, Seoul 2030, Yeouido, Seoul, South Korea Thesis Studio / Spring 2019 Revit, Lumion, Photoshop, Illustrator This thesis proposes a high-rise residenƟal complex for 2030. A scenario planning technique is used for formulaƟng visionary concepts of a housing development within the specific context of Seoul, South Korea. The proposed design conforms to three objecƟves: 1.Ppropose a soluƟon to integrate nature with buildings while making profits, 2. Create an ecological living system that respects regional aƩributes, 3.Include programmaƟc suggesƟons responding to the future.

THE SPROUT Vegan Culinary Institute, Goose Island, Chicago Design 6.2 Whole Building Studio / Spring 2018 Revit, Lumion, Photoshop, Illustrator The Sprout was a year-round project that developed from the interest in food and urban agriculture to programming, and realized a concrete design at the Whole Building Studio in collaboration of a lecture, New Technology of Enclosed Buildings. This new culinary institute is a place to teach culinary arts and invent new food experiences. The building is located in the old paint factory in the Goose Island neighborhood, reflecting the ongoing transformation from traditional industrial spaces to modern creative spaces.

STRUCTURE SYSTEM: Heavy Timber Construction
Concrete shear wall Columns: 10.5” x 13.75’ southern pine glulam post
As its core, the Vegan Culinary Institute has heavy timber structure, consisting of an exposed glulam frame (columns, beams, braces), cross-laminated timber (CLT) and concrete composite floors, and concrete shaft walls. The building’s elevated part are supported by wood-steel composite system because of the long span and the facade farming cantilevered from the south facade.

TOWN & GOWN Suburban Retrofitting Urbanism / Tallahassee, FL Urban Design Studio / Fall 2018 Rhinoceros, AutoCAD, Photoshop, Illustrator This project proposes a networked and reinvented suburban prototypes that respond to a specific urban location, the South Monroe Corridor, Tallahassee, FL. In the first phase, collective analysis of the current state of the city and the focus area were performed extensively. Then, through the SWOT analysis and DNA sampling, the meaningful attributes that influences the future of the city were excavated and utilized for each team’s proposal. PROPOSED SITE PLAN -

FIELD & FRAME Chicago Downtown Library Annex Design 6.1 Critical Thinking Studio / Fall 2017 AutoCAD, SketchUp, Lumion, Photoshop Field & Frame is a project that creates a new annex for the main downtown library in Chicago. Based on rising questions related to the “evolution of libraries,” the building suggests a new type of library in the 21st century, establishing the 3D spatial field & frame and responding to the urban context.

PARTI: Quantum Field Theory The design process started with a question, how can architecture reflect the new era of a digitized, dematerialized world? In theoretical physics, quantum field theory is “the theoretical framework for constructing quantum mechanical models of subatomic particles.” This theory is applied when some phenomena are not able to described by classical physics, for example, when an object moves very fast like lightning or when particles are very small, in micro scale. If dematerialized materials are defined as very small particles invisible in quantum field theory, can’t we borrow the methodologies of quantum field theory to create spaces for the 21st century library?
Section
To visualize this theoretical idea, I focused on a very famous experiment in quantum field theory, “the double-slit experiment.” It showed that light has wave-particle duality by projecting light on the slit screen because it made an unexpected pattern when light was regarded only as a particle. What if slit walls are built on the site of the new library as the slit screen was in the experiment? What would happen inside and outside this permeable layer?
“ A modern library is not only a place for the storage and lending of different materials, it is also a place to stay, a place to be inspired and surprised.” - Architect Morten Schmidt
RENDEZVOUS Urban Architecture / Cambridge, MA Design 4.1 / Fall 2016 Revit, Lumion, Photoshop This project began with the selecttion of an urban district in any city in the world. The city of Cambridge, MA, is interesting and attractive, because of the duality that the city has protean vitality of a university town and classical repose of an old city. This design proposal is to suggest three urban roles corresponding to the urban fabric and offer centrality and conviviality to the Commons.

CAVE & TREE Bo-Kapp Meditation Center / Cape Town, South Africa Design 6.1 Critical Thinking Studio / Fall 2017 Revit, SketchUp, Vray, Photoshop
This project is to analyze the dichotomy of “cave” and “tree” architecture and represent the oppositional features: solid vs. void, stereotomic vs. tectonic, and light vs. shadow. The meditation center offers a spatial sequence where visitors experience various ways of meditation: yoga studio, meditation walkway, and pavilion.
LOCATION & CONTEXT
01 Landform
The site location is Bo-Kaap, Cape Town. It is a Muslim community, well known for the multicultural character, and for the unique architecture: colored buildings and cobblestone alleys.

SPIRAL CORE Collaborative Workspace, Jacksonville, FL Design 4.2 / Spring 2017 Revit, Rhino, Lumion, Photoshop This project is to propose a new type of office building optimizing collaborative workspace like Google and Apple. The site is located at the north bank of the St. Johns River in Jacksonville, FL. This design is a response to the new business trend of collaboration. While the adjacent buildings have a conventional, box-type form, this building has a spiral core within a rectangular enclosure as a driver of change.

THREE-in-One FURNITURE Architecture Making / Fall 2017 Rhino, Photoshop The main purpose of the project is to learn how to articulate and fabricate structural connections in architecture by dealing with real-scale furniture. As Eliel Sarrinen said, “ Always design a thing by considering it in its next larger context – a chair in a room, a room in a house, a house in an environment, an environment in a city plan,” furniture is the next smaller thing in architecture.
MODULAR DESIGN All components of the grid frame are indicated in green and red below. These sixteen identical wooden members make the grid frames.
CONNECTION TYPE I. Mortise-Tenon Joint
CONNECTION TYPE II. Lap Joint
For the horizontal frame, the dowel pin on the side of one member is connected to the hole on the bottom of another member.
The table leg is connected to the horizontal frame with a lap joint.
DEPLOYABLE ROOF STRUCTURE Digital Fabrication / Spring 2017 Rhino, Photoshop This project is to design a digitally fabricated roof structure based on modular design. It is required to cover the 10 by 3 ft. space between two pin-up boards and create a form of connecting device without using glue.
MODEL STUDY Model studies were performed to prototype the module satisfying two design concepts: • •
Make a self-locking system that has no need to have connecting hardware and Apply a weaving technique to improve the stability of the entire structure.
FINAL MODEL For the final model, the 1/8” plywood panels were cut by laser cutter, coated with stain and assembled after they dried. See the pictures of the model-making process below.
