Personal Statement

I'm an undergraduate architecture student at Ningbo University, China, passionate about designing inspiring spaces that serve their purpose. With a strong foundation in design principles, construction techniques, and software applications like AutoCAD, SketchUp, Twin motion, and Revit, bring my designs to life in a digital format.

I'm committed to promoting sustainability and social responsibility in my work, and believe architecture has a responsibility to create accessible and inclusive spaces while minimizing its ecological footprint. I'm eager to explore innovative ways to integrate sustainable design principles into my work.

I'm seeking an intern position at an architecture studio with an excellent reputation to continue learning and growing in this field. Working with an experienced firm with exceptional architectural work and a vision for the future would be a significant step in my development as an architect.

SUSTAINAIBILITY

This image shows shows the Column And Beam Framing Connections. To make sure the buildings are structurally sound and has enough capacity to withstand heavy loads. The beams, columns, and walls are joined to the concrete slabs, and all structural sections are suitably connected to their supporting members, to ensure that the structures are structurally sound and capable of withstanding enormous loads. Concrete beams are used, which will carry structure load on itself vertically and it will withstand load by resisting bending.

Project Description Design Problem

This Project is aimed at providing a Public Library to the society for public users of all ages, ranging from Children to adults which’s primary goal is to provide materials and services in a variety of media, in order to meet their educational, recreational, and informational requirements.

Zhenhai District is situated southeast of Luotuo, and southwest of Guisi. One problem identified on site is the absence of a public library or recreational place around the site as the nearest library is about 10km away. However, the site was seen as a big opportunity to provide the library service to the community.
