The Uncontained Metropolis The Productive & Creative City

Under the theme, "The Creative and Productive City", the aim of the planning measures is to develop a lively and a appealing district which fully considers and incorporates the existing listed industrial monuments.

When do people feel most comfortable? People tend to feel more serene when they have access to the surrounding nature or the experience of open fields and agriculture. As we all know, all town has a border with the village but a good city will only be formed when it contains a dense interaction between people and work with different lifestyles. Thus this why a city should be continuous instead of it being broken. In this 21st century, it is getting harder to control the growth of a city. The growth that is best for agriculture is by chance the best for construction. The main objective of this project is to increase the density of the existing city voids in Marzahn and turn them into quality public and private spaces where a Productive and Creative City is activated. The most apparent architecture gesture that can be seen in this masterplan is „The Wall“, which is made out of shipping containers. The concept of this wall not only emphasizes its function but also sets up an inner-city wall in Marzahn where the city is uncontained within the boundary of the site and it will grow upwards. The tiny alley in between „the walls“ on the East will be the place where consumer technology meets innovation. Media, Games, Communication, Photo & Video, Audio Entertainment, Home Entertainment, Smart Home, Smart Appliances and much more at the alley will make Marzahn to be the capital of technology in Berlin.

Besides that, the void in the masterplan is organized with various types of landscape programming with a minimum of architecture. The research of this project mainly focuses on landscape programming which allows the people to crete and afford a new identity in this uncontained metropolis.

Division of East & West of Marzahn Marzahn is divided into East & West Marzahn from the division of Markische Allee. On the East of Marzahn, more residential buildings. open spaces (park) and entertainment area can be found.

On the other hand, more factories, industiral area are found on the West side of Marzahn. The site (planning area) is located right next to Markische Allee, which is on the West of Marzahn. It plays an important role to connect both sides together.

Wunderland Wisdom Parlour + Tea-party + Court of Hearts

Wuppertal Sculpture Park is a beautiful park privately owned by Sculpture Artist, Tony Cragg. It lies above Wupper valley in the Christbusch woodland between the town centres of Elberfeld and Barmen. The fairy tale “Alice in Wonderland” is the inspiration behind this project. The way how Alice is living in her own dream is similar to how Tony Cragg is living in the dream of his sculpture park right now. Each of the sculptures is individually unique and beautiful in its own way just like the creatures Alice met in Wonderland. 3 pavilions which are strategically located in the park are proposed to compliment the existing sculptures. 3 of these pavilions (Wisdom Parlour, Tea-Party and Court of Hearts) will provide 3 different kinds of experience and atmosphere to the users. The idea of creating these 3 pavilions is actually to create a platform for the visitors to capture and appreciate the beauty of the existing sculptures. As the main idea of these pavilions is “framing the view of the sculpture”, thus each of the pavilions has different openings which frame the view of each individual sculpture. Besides, the shape of the openings is derived from the shape of the sculpture itself. On the other hand, the shape of each pavilion is distinctively derived from the idea of stacking a few stones, which represents nature. The method of this application is inspired by the way Tony Cragg created his sculpture, Point of View by stacking ellipses together as one. The interesting organic form of the pavilions symbolizes some huge stones protruding from the landscapes. The linearity of the pavilions in terms of circulation creates a special journey and atmosphere to the visitors. Lastly, the skin of the pavilions which are made out of carbon fibre will form a translucent effect which will not overpower the existing sculptures and it gives a sense of lightness. The use of robotic arm will help to weave the carbon fibre in a systematic way.

Wisdom Parlour Pavilion 1

Alice met Absolem, the blue caterpillar when she was shrunk to a tiny size. Absolem usually talks to Alice in short sentence or difficult questions. He also gives instructions to Alice when she needed help.

As Tony Cragg is also a lecturer, the first pavilion, Wisdom Parlour is proposed to allow Tony Cragg to carry out his lecture or workshop in the park. This would be a great opportunity for Tony Cragg to bring his students to visit his Sculpture Park and gives lecture at the same time. The scattered seats which is located inside and outside the pavilion allow users to have a more relaxing atmosphere to enjoy their discussion in nature. Users can also spend their time seating, sketching and enjoy the beauty of the Sculpture Park.

31

32

Tea-party Pavilion 2

Alice met the Mad Hatter when he was having a tea party. Hatter explains to Alice that he and the March Hare are always having tea because when he tried to sing for the foul-tempered Queen of Hearts, she sentenced him to death for „murdering the time“, but he escapes decapitation.

In conjunction with the story above, the second pavilion proposed is a cafe which allows the users to enjoy coffee under the beauty of the nature. The journey to this pavilion is slighly longer compare to the other two pavilions as it was designed in a way to create a exploring feeling kind of journey, just like the journey that Alice went through in order to meet Hatter. Pockets of seating area are located along the pathway so that users can stop and enjoy the views. Besides, the second pavilion proposed consists of two main areas connected by an open ramp. This pavilion will be a place where users can stop, rest, and have a cup of nice coffee after exploring the Sculpture Park.

33

34

Court of Hearts Pavilion 3

The last person Alice met in Wonderland is the Queen of Hearts. She is a foul-tempered monarch who is quick to give death sentences at the slightest offense. The Queen of Hearts is always finding new ways to entertain herself. Entertainment plays a huge role in her life.

As the Scupture Park held some small music concerts once in a while, the third pavilion proposed is a platform for people to carry out small performances. The pavilion comprises of three individual small pavilions. Different types of small intimate performances will be caried out in these pavilions, such as slam poetry, singing, dancing and etc. Vistors will have the chance to enjoy some small entertainment under the beautiful atmosphere in the Sculpture Park. This pavilion will bring out lively part of the Sculpture Park which the visitors will truely enjoy it.

Insulating Bricks Architectural Slot Machine

Almost 100 years after the start of Bauhaus and its groundbreaking Haltung as well as teaching towards industrial production, we are asking: What are the hidden potentials of standardized building materials of today? Budget, program and material – a trinity that often is the defining parameters of designing our projects. In order to gain freedom from a world of references and precedents, this project uses Architectural Slot Machine to distribute it‘s personal task: (a) the budget defines a limited amount of your material (b) individual prefabmaterial; these two main elements creating a specific constellation. With the budget and material being extremely defined and by that possibilies and restrictions) the third parameter is given as an absurd constellation to be developed.

The prefabmaterial that I got is Insulating Brick. This project covers the research on the properties and installation of the material. A site is given and the task is to create an extension space using the prefabmaterial with its limited budget for the specific housing lot located in Berlin.

Architecture as a game of elements: Nothing can be taken away / Everything is space-defining.

Urban Development & Open Space Planning Competition in Duisburg, Germany 1st Prize (2020-2021) Christoph Kohl Stadtplanner Architekten The curved lines of the car and railways run through this part of the city and define the quarter. In harmony with these movements, the buildings on the park also vibrate dynamically in the horizontal and the skyline in the vertical dimension, constantly opening up new perspectives. The skyline spans an arc across the motorway to the “former car dealership”.

What is new is that in the future this is best experienced on a bike. An important cycle path leads through the park, which connects Duisburg city center directly with cycle route 1 and Sportpark Wedau. The many differences in height that the elevated terrain and the existing infrastructure dictate are staged into a dynamic sequence of movements.

The asymmetrical location of the park opens up the quarter to the Dellviertel and creates optimal sunbathing. The center of the quarter is the square at the north end of the park with space for restaurants. From there, a street with local shops leads to the city center. The many wedge-shaped streets in the quarter create interesting street perspectives and space for more greenery.

In the north, where the main train station is within walking distance, closed blocks with towers form a dense, urban addition to the city center. The proportion of office space is high here and residential towers create a special form of living for Duisburg. Further south, the blocks open up and interlock with the park to create a less dense, green residential area.

Innovations A centrally located, green, dense and mixed district with its networked neighborhoods offers the best conditions for one healthy, climate-neutral lifestyle. In such an environment private cars are dispensed with as diverse sharing offers are made possible and alternative lifestyles are offered. The neighborhood structure with the large park and spacious courtyard areas offer a healthy living environment.

Traffic The backbone of cycling is a wide, continuous cycle path, the city center, the Dellviertel and the main station with the cycle expressway 1 and Sportpark Wedau almost free of intersections over existing and planned bicycle bridges, as well as over new railway underpasses with each other connected. Pedestrians can use these direct routes on parallel paths and use car-free connections. This main structure is supplemented by a close-knit and well-connected system of paths.

The area becomes part of the public transport network through the establishment of a ring bus line. Quartier to / from Innenstadt-Bahnhof-Ost‘ and a radial bus line ‚Quarters to / from 6-Seen-Wedau‘ integrated. Be at the bus stops Mobility hubs with bike service, bike sharing, cargo bike rental and parcel stations built. The main structure of the MIV development of the quarter is a main street with Tempo 30 regulation. Traffic-calmed traffic can be connected to it. District streets with oneway traffic control.

The connection to the main access road in the north and to Karl-Lehr-Str. takes place by means of efficient roundabouts.

Because of the many alternatives to the car the area-related motor vehicle share can be reduced from 57.7% to 35.1%. As a result, the daily car traffic volume is in the early morning peak 860 vehicles / hour and 873 vehicles / hour in the afternoon peak hour.

55

Memorial The present shape of the memorial is the result of a never realized traffic planning. To truthfully depict the scale of the misfortune and to make it tangible and understandable for uninvolved people, we propose to restore the ramp to its original width and slope.

Within this larger room, a smaller area serves on the stairs in memory.

The new bridge over the street (the dark one) will be preserved for this.

Ginko trees limit the view and direct it to the sky. The wall that creates an intimate area for the mourners is like the memorial plaque made of Corten steel. On top of the ´balcony´ there is space for information boards with background information and photos of the event.

Immission Protection The planning area is surrounded by heavily frequented traffic routes. In the West borders the A 59 motorway with a traffic volume of over 65,000 vehicles / d. Find it on the main lines of the railway to the east. Over 340,000 train movements take place annually.

The traffic noise requires a sophisticated concept of measures with the following components: • A steep wall 12 m high above the gradient of the motorway offers effective noise protection for the park and a high quality of stay outdoors.

• Residential buildings adjacent to the park are up to 160 m from the motorway away. The traffic noise levels fall below even before the outside facades clearly meet the thresholds of health hazard.

• Noise-robust block development with transparent noise barriers between the lines against the railway noise on the east flank.

Further elements of the noise protection concept used as required are: Well-inserted apartment floor plans, glazed balconies or loggias, sound-optimized windows, structurally closed arcades. The steep wall acts as a shield and the spacious park acts as an air duct also has a positive effect on air pollution in the project area.

Areal Böhler 2 Competition in Meerbusch-Büderich, Germany 3rd Prize (2020) Christoph Kohl Stadtplanner Architekten

The new quarter is being built right next to the old Böhler industrial area in Meerbusch. A lively and sustainable mixed district with around 400 apartments for different age and income groups is being developed here. Around 80 percent of the apartments will be built in multi-storey buildings, some with state funding, and around 20 percent as single-family houses.

The development concept also includes commercial space and retail space bordering the Böhler area. Future development will focus on the issues of mobility and social infrastructure with a three-class elementary school and daycare center. Generous green and open spaces are also planned, which will run through the entire city quarter and ensure a high quality of stay.

Design Motives In the cities the roads belong almost exclusively to the car. In our neighborhood it should be the other way round: The streets belong to the people. There are pleasant lounges with lots of green and, above all, space for encounters, exchanges and games. The cars, on the other hand, are in concentrated places. The housing sector assignable cars in the underground garages below, the additional requirements such as second cars, visitors, employees and commuters in 2 efficient neighborhood garages.

In our neighborhood, the car does not have a decisive advantage over more sensible ones means of transport. Public transport stops are at least as close as the nearest to the neighborhood garage. There are plenty of bike racks, and residents or visitors can always keep their bikes safe and park in the immediate vicinity of your home and workplace.

By accommodating stationary traffic in efficient neighborhood garages, you gain a lot of space for green and public spaces. This ensures natural revitalization, since along the main development - the one is exclusively for slow traffic, pedestrians and cyclists - movement within the quarter is stimulated. The greatest contribution that urban development can make to sustainability is the combination of dense and green, the lively coexistence and coexistence of diverse public and private functions. So Fewer areas are sealed, distances are shorter, bicycles and local public transport are more attractive.

Mobility Concept The public space in the new quarter is in favor of the quality of the open space instead of being used by the designed motorized private transport.

Motor vehicle traffic: efficient connection of the two district streets to Böhlerstrasse and signal-based regulation of traffic. Soft separation and mixing of the types of traffic in the district and residential streets. High quality of stay due to speed limitation to 10 or max. 7 km / h. Concentration of stationary traffic in building site-related underground garages (for residents and employees) and in 2 district garages (for visitors, school, employees and car sharing). Car-sharing places as an alternative to private cars. Promotion of e-mobility with charging stations in the district garages.

Expulsion restricted stopping for loading and unloading. Temporary approval of delivery traffic in the pedestrian zone. Establishment of drop-off zones in the area of the school and daycare center.

Bicycle, pedestrian and public transport: Promotion of district development in the environmental network. Signal controlled Management of the traffic in the connection area with the main road network. Main access in public transport in as part of the planned U81 with central stops within walking distance at the interface between the Böhlerstraße / Neue Oststraße .

Networking in pedestrian and bicycle traffic through cross-districts offer of separate and shared footpaths and bike paths. Designation of a pedestrian zone with "cyclists‘ free" as a public open space and as a central access axis for pedestrian traffic. Promotion of e-mobility (range of charging stations).

Area-wide offer to 460 public (including visitors) and 1,480 private bicycle parking spaces in public spaces and per building site in underground garages and courtyards. Promotion of cycling through the establishment of a mobility hub with bike service, bike sharing and rental of cargo bikes, parcel stations, etc., the bike house.

Berlin-Brandenburg 2070 Urban Design Ideas Competition Finalist (2019-2020) Christoph Kohl Stadtplanner Architekten On the occasion of the annual vision of Greater Berlin in 2020, conceptual approaches and central ideas are sought for what Berlin and Brandenburg will look like in 2070. Our vision: sustainable and compact settlement structures, a resilient public transport network instead of car-oriented cities, spaces for nature.

In a sustainable world there are liveable compact cities and plenty of space for nature. This city is incompatible with unlimited automobility. A lot of space for nature is incompatible with sprawling cities and landscapes cut through by infrastructure. A CO2 tax is intended to make today‘s drivers pay for costs that they will cause later. As a result, many suitable apartments are to be built in Berlin until the square meter prices are not above those in the suburbs. Investing in mobility should benefit bicycles and public transport whenever possible.

Urgently needed living space and land-consuming commercial uses cannot simply be dumped in Brandenburg, but should find efficient space in the city. Berlin should deal more sustainably with areas and development so that there is more space for relaxation in the countryside. Brandenburg should concentrate primarily on strengthening its own cities, as well as the development of agriculture and not try to skim off Berlin‘s growth in the suburbs with cheap offers.

TEILRAUM C Brandenburg an der Havel

Berliner Innenstadt Starkes Wachstum sowohl durch Verdichtung bestehender Viertel als auch kompletter Neubau auf Kleingartenflächen, extensiv genutzten Gewerbegebieten und dem ehemaligen Flughafen Tegel. Der ÖPNV ist immer innerhalb von 750 m erreichbar.

Äußere Stadt Verdichtungen sind nur in Bahnhofsumfeldern erlaubt. Leben im Einfamilienhaus bedeutet für einkommensschwächere Schichten eine eingeschränkte Mobilität. Vorausschauende Planung limitiert seit Langem die Verdichtung abseits des ÖPNV, da bei einer hohen CO2Steuer diese Wohnungen unattraktiv werden.

Innere Landschaft Hier sind keine neuen Siedlungsflächen erlaubt. Die Landschaft besteht aus einem durchgehenden Netzwerk von zugänglichen Landschaftsparks und neuen Kleingartengebieten am Stadtrand. Dazwischen bildet eine kleinmaßstäbliche, diversifizierte Landwirtschaft der Metropolengärten - eine attraktive, zugängliche Bilderbuchlandschaft.

Äußere Landschaft Große, zusammenhängende, für Menschen kaum zugängliche, NatUrwälder bilden ein Netzwerk. Ansonsten prägen Mischwälder für Produktion und Agrarland mit Windrädern die Landschaft. Durch Automatisierung der Forst- und Landwirtschaft sind kaum Arbeitsplätze vorhanden. Schrumpfungsprozesse sind unvermeidlich und teilweise erwünscht. Menschen werden beim Wegzug finanziell unterstützt.

Brandenburger Städte Attraktive, vollwertige Städte mit vielfältigen Nutzungen dürfen in Bahnhofsnähe verdichten. Diese Städte werden auch von einer inneren Landschaft umgeben. Kein Flächenwachstum, keine monofunktionalen Schlafstädte.

Metro Network 2070

Traffic is synonymous with car. The expansion of local public transport is progressing very slowly; Tram lines, planned for decades, are not being built. New subway lines are utopian. While Berlin is growing by hundreds of thousands of inhabitants and an alternative to the car is necessary, people think small. For a city that is not dependent on the car, real alternatives are needed: a comprehensive metro network in Berlin and a high-frequency rail network that connects the cities of Brandenburg. Berlin is too big to be reached only by tram and bike.

The aim must be that everyone can reach a metro station on foot. This requires a huge investment. This can be made more manageable by building the metro primarily as an elevated railway. A comprehensive development of Brandenburg with local public transport is not possible. In the future, too, rural areas will be developed with cars. Despite self-driving electric cars, this will consume a lot of resources and be expensive. Brandenburg must make its cities fit for the future by concentrating them around the train stations. This also means dismantling areas that are not sustainable. The rail connections and timing must be greatly improved. Infrastructure and urban planning are interrelated.

2020 are streets for cars

2070 are streets for people

Berlin is too big to be reached only by tram and bike. The aim must be that everyone can walk to a metro station. Mainly built as an elevated railway and with an urban structure that seriously integrates trade, the city of tomorrow can be designed and used in an affordable and efficient way.

“On the outskirts of Berlin, Grüner Keil”, Lichtenrade / Rangsdorf area A fundamental paradigm shift is required in land policy in the metropolitan area - beyond the densification of the cities described above. A strategic land policy must be introduced that prioritizes a resource-saving supply of agricultural products that is strictly geared towards sustainability, provides the residents with sufficient attractive recreational areas for recreation close to settlements or for short vacations, and sufficient and interlinked habitats for the native flora and fauna and finally has a long-term climate adaptation of the landscape and settlement areas in view.

Non Architecture Competition: Eating Rest-To-Run Honourable Mention (2018) Team members: Arise Wan, Melissa Chong, Catherine Keh, Kong Chee Seng Every meal becomes a hearty meal within your steps.

Restaurant, defined as a place where people pay to sit and eat meals that are cooked and served on the premises. We often refer a restaurant as a place, as a symbolic location and a landmark. What if restaurant itself is not stagnant but a moving object, or even more, it resembles a living creature, which could self-sustain by growing food on its own to serve it fresh and it also has a soul? What if, instead of walking into a restaurant, you can have a walk with the restaurant and even have the restaurant walk to you.

Take a journey with Rest-To-Run by hopping on to your next anticipated cuisine in the new city loop. Prefer to stay home? Worry not; it is also ready to serve warm food right outside your window. So check out the schedule right now! Let’s Experience ‚eating‘ like you have never before, tasting them in every step, where each meal, becomes a hearty meal.

Art Personal Interest

Besides architecture, art is also another huge interest of mine. I used to draw and sketch a lot during my academic years. During the pandemic year, I have participated in quite some numbers of global artwork design competitions. Although I did not win any of the competitions, it feels great to see other talented artists work which motivates and inspires me to try even harder no matter is in art or in architecture.

Here are few of the selected works of mine which I personally love it.

Hope that you will enjoy it as much as I do.

Calligraphy Personal Interest

As people said “Calligraphy is the art of giving form to signs in an expressive, harmonious, and skillful manner”, calligraphy has been something important and special to me since I started learning to write using my hand. Chinese calligraphy is a form of calligraphy which is widely practiced in the chinese culture. I started picking up Chinese calligraphy when I was 13 years old and it has driven me to understand the Chinese culture in depth and appreciate this beauty of Chinese culture.

On the other hand, Copperplate calligraphy is another type of calligraphy which is totally different from Chinese calligraphy. Using an oblique penholder with a nib is as tough as using a brush in Chinese calligraphy. Nevertheless, Jake Weidmann, who is a self-taught artist and the youngest Master Penman made me realized the power of writting. It is genuinely motivating and heartening to see people who are so passionate in calligraphy and art.

I would say that calligraphy is a kind of art which is very similar to architecture. The amount of time and effort to make something such fascinating is truly inspiring and beautiful. Throughout the years of practicing calligraphy and participating in numerous calligraphy competitions, it has make me to become a more mature person.

Thus, I can assure that it is definitely something very helpful and significant for my architecture‘s life.
