Sitting Areas
To provide visitors with places to sit, along with attempting to balance the interior and exterior of the pavilion, I created some seats and tables which were inspired from the shapes of the pavilions. Twisty Lighting Performance: Plan and Section

Twisty Lighting Performance: LED Artificial Light

I simplified the complex sunlight patterns left on the wall during the day and used led strips to create a similar pattern and apply it on the wall in order to illuminate the corridor at night.

Design Statement
Waste recycling is a recurring problem for the public. This project aims to solve these problems by inventing an urban exhibition system to educate the public about recycling. One of the strengths of this exhibition system is that it would be combined with local programs and activities around the area. In this case the project would be interactive so that people would feel more engaged in it.
Mott Street is a commercial area in Chinatown. This busy area produces high quantities of waste on a daily basis. It contains all the typical activities including restaurants, retail shops and schools. For this reason, I chose Mott Street to be the experimental place for this exhibition system, which can combine with the activities in this zone. There would be 3 types of exhibition systems: exhibitions in tandem with outdoor dining, schools and retail shops.
