Design scheme: Applying "Courtyard" layout

Place a large green space at the center and using building block to enclose the open space to create internal courtyard

Courtyard is created for SEN student as escape space and outdoor learning space.

Courtyard act as the buffer between High activities areas Quiet area. Reducing the issues that will trigger SEN students.

Design Development

Biophlia hypothesis Starting with 2 Level natural green space

Central courtyard Enclosing with Building Blocks to form internal courtyard

Horizontal Zoning Applying axial design, Building blocks are arranged along the axis

Schematic Design with circulation and proper dimension of different learning space

Breaking Spliting down the volume of blocks

Site Analysis

approx 320 sqM Occupant: ~35 persons

Wan Chai is one of the earliest developed district of Hong Kong which has a very long history and a very vintage atmosphere, you can see tram and old buildings around the site. Trying to keep this atmosphere is one of my design concepts.

Responding to the design philosophy of visvim is also the concept of this project. "Visvim clothing is in equal parts functional and stylish: old shapes that appear familiar on the surface have been repurposed and made relev ant for the contemporary world.” said Hiroki Nakamura, the founder of VISVIM.

After careful consideration of different possibilities are concludeed that simple massing and playing with details is the keys to a harmony for the site and the brand. As the response to the site, I borrow the architectural language that can be easily found in Wan Chai - the form of Corner houses. " To keep the raw appearance of Geometry, but with the added functionality of being partical in the city "
