Int e r e st s a n d E xpertise I e n j o y music, aesthetics, and sc ie nc e . Sinc e c hildhood, I 've ha d c ur iosity f o r understanding many things and this has sparked me to explore the unknown in different ways. As I getting older, I've put more effort into learning relevant kn o w l e d g e a nd enhancing related skills.

I excel at identifying and solving problems, and I enjoy creating beautiful things.

Apart from designing and drawing in the field of architecture, I'm also skilled in graphic design and photography. I have received awards and various job opportunities in these areas of expertise.

Int e r n sh i p O b jectives: 1 . G a i n a d e e p er understanding of the pr a c tic a l de sign me thods a nd pr oje c t plan n in g pro c e sse s i n architecture: T h r o u g h p articipating in variou s sta ge s of a r c hite c tur a l de sign wor k, under s ta n d t he e n t i r e p r o cess of a project from initia l c onc e ption to c onstr uc tion, a nd le a r n h o w t o e ff e c t i v e l y m anage the w orkflow.

2 . E x p a n d p r ofessional know ledge a nd skills: Improve technical skills and knowledge through practical work, master and proficiently use technical tools related to architectural design, and enhance broader professional knowledge at the practical level to improve professional competence.

3. S i t e v i si t s a nd field investigations: Hope to gain insights into the actual construction situation through site visits and field investigations. By understanding the realities of construction, be able to consider practical aspects during the design process, and ensure that designs are not merely t heo r e t i c a l b u t practical.

4. Le a r n c o m munication and relation ship building: Interact with people of different nationalities and ethnicities to learn better communication skills and expression methods. Observe and learn from how others han d l e si t u a t ions, refine oneself, a nd pr e pa r e f or f utur e c a r e e r de ve lopme n t.

Design Concept A day care center shouldn’t be s o m e wher e deser ted and lif eless. I nstead, it is supposed to be a good place where the elderly can make friends and cultivate diverse interests and hobbies after retirement. By utilizing a variety of open and semi-open spaces, I hope to create a behavior space where the seniors c a n i n t e r a c t w i t h e a c h o t h e r.

Site Conditions T h e b u i l d i n g s i t e i s l o c a t e d i n D o u n a n T o w n , Y u n l i n C o u n t y, Taiwan. Since the west and south sides face high-traffic roads, I specially designed guide lanes, pick-up areas, etc. for this condition. In addition, the east side of the site is adjacent to mid- and high-rise buildings. In this regard, I set the building mass as a concession to the atrium.

On the one hand, it provides more outdoor activity spaces for the users; on the other hand, it can also obtain more sunlight indoors. The high-rise configuration of the building mass follows the base structure, descending from east to west.

Site Conditions

The site runs north-south and is located on the north side of the Tropic of Cancer, with a sultry climate and serious eastern and western exposure problems. Therefore, I used a large number of slabs, columns, and colonnades in this design to create shadows on the facade, thereby reducing the threat of sunlight.

Since the physical environment of the site makes it difficult to draw in the wind, I made cuts in different sizes in the volume to induce the wind. The west side of the site is a large-scale open space, and the east side is a small-scale low-rise building. Therefore, I used stepped volumes to fit the landform.

Th i s d e s i g n u s e s t r a ditional lattice windows as the main t heme, accompanied by different techniques such as slabs, columns, and colonnades so that the building can make full use of the physical conditions of the site, making the hostel itself “green” on the green space instead of a murderer destroying the natural environment.

It is hoped that the design can arouse tourists’awareness of environmental conservation issues.

De s i g n C o n c e p t Du e t o t h e i n c r e a s i n g wor ld population, humans ar e using a large number of high-carbon-emission materials for buildings. The high degree of industrialization has made global warming more serious.

Poor ventilation systems have also multiplied the use of air conditioners.

Our design goal is to reduce the negative impact of climate change while providing sustainable, energy-efficient, and environmentally friendly building design as a solution, thereby achieving the ideal of Net Zero.

Just like the relationship between humanity and nature, how to strike a balance between the mechanical equipment of renewable energy and the architectural mode is an issue discussed in this design.

Double Roof The double-layered roof insulatesthe low-latitude areas from direct sunlight. To reduce the high temperature c a u s e d b y t h e e x p o s u r e t o t h e s u n o n t h e t o p f l o o r, s o l a r panels are installed on the folded roof of the second floor, which is tilted southward along the shape to gain more sunlight.

CLT F l o o r S l ab Since the wood itself sequesters carbon and the carbon emissions during production are much lower than those of traditional RC structures, and its strength is higher than that of RC buildings, which can reduce the possibility of columns c o l l a p s i n g , C LT b a k e l i t e i s u s e d a s t h e b u i l d i n g m a t e r i a l t o a c h i e v e t h e c a r b o n r e d u c t i o n e ff e c t .

D ou bl e S k i n Coworking Space

The use of artificially operable sun shade s can isolate the heat energy brought by infrared rays, slow down the rate of heat conduction in the indoor space, and meanwhile maintain the view of the indoor space.

Actively controlling the heat transfer to stabilize the operating speed of air conditioning equipment and reducing air conditioning usage to achieve the energy-saving goals.

52

Vertical Green Wall Vertical greening of the wall helps absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen, providing additional isolation (same as the concept of double skin). Plants can absorb a n d r e f l e c t s u n l i g h t , r e d u c i n g t h e h e a t i s l a n d e ff e c t .

By creating a sustainable oasis, air quality can be improved, energy consumption can be reduced, buildings can be protected, and urban landscapes can also be beautified.

Building Mass The first floor of the highland can create a r elatively cool square in the city and a green fence in the building; the openings on the facade can be used to a l l o w t h e a i r i n s i d e t o f l o w n a t u r a l l y.

R o o f t o p R a inwater Recover y S ystem S o l a r P a n e l s as the Building E nvelope The solar panel area on the building's exterior wall is about 125 square meters and can be installed with 250 300W single silicon solar p a n e l s , w i t h a t o t a l p o w e r g e n e r a t i o n o f u p t o 7 5 , 0 0 0 W.

B i l b e r r y L e af F icus Wall Bilberry leaves have the features of a high coverage rate, growing n e a r t h e g r o u n d , h a v i n g g o o d s h a d e t o l e r a n c e , a n d b e i n g e v e rg r e e n a l l year round. It can stay unpruned all year or only needs a little pruning.

It has excellent texture and is less vulnerable to pests. Used in the double-layered green wall of this design concept, it has greening and heat insulation effects.

C r e a t e a n U r ban Oasis The first floor is raised to create a concept similar to the shade of a tree, providing people in the city with a place to avoid the scorching sun and heat waves. The conditions of the design can also draw in the wind and create imagery of the stopping, waiting, and interaction of people.
