New Mchanism 01 Garbage Village

This academic project aims to rearrange the idle space under an expressway.

By proposing the new mechanism, the residual space of a city can be revitalized. This project tries to move the marginalized to the urban center, and the hidden to the spotlight. Thus, different groups can share mutual understanding at the node of a historical city.

The function of both side of the site is changed. The artists leave the cultural park because of the rising rent that only commercial company can afford. And the old book and CD store is replaced by the 3Cs. This project would like to bring back the things which are no longer here.

Academic Project, 2012 Location: Sin- Sheng high speed road,Taipei, Taiwan Advisors: Ciou Wun-Jie , Hsuen Cheng-Luen (clhsueh@mail.ncku.edu.tw) Media: Real models, Digital models(Revit), Hand-drawing,

The Change And the Cycle of the Site This project pull back the things that disappeared, and create many different scale cycles both within and without the site.

With the progress of the technology, the life span of the product becomes shorter and shorter. To the west of the site, a cultural & creative park makes a ton of paper trash produced by the temporary exhibitions. To the east of the site, a 3C department store encourages people to change their 3C products more frequently. Collecting the wastes such as glass, paper, wood and 3C items from all the neighborhood and provide a place and a chance for people to see the waste and reuse it.

This place will be used by different groups. The homeless will bring the recyclable garbage to the north part of the site, exchanging the trash for money and starting the mechanic work. After dividing and first-hand processing, the trash will be moved to different factories by a small train at around 9 am.

Tourists, students and visitors will come to talk to the artists at different plazas, such as the glass, the paper, and the 3c recycling plaza. Through these process the citizen can start to understand how much garbage they made and understand how to make it valuable again.

The three plazas link the spaces which is separated by the expressway and creat new way to approach it.

02 The Specimen of Epoch The Specimen of the Epoch is my graduation project in 2014. This project targets the reconstruction of Taiwan’s historical legacies. Mere preservation will lead to the social detachment of these valuable properties, and I hope to seek out a way for these important heritages to return to their rightful roles in a city. I use the veteran villages as my samples to analyze the original, untainted space in the locale, and build a public corridor based on these models, balancing the separation and the exchanges between local residents and tourists.

Beitou faces the tourism industry’s approach. What attitude should we face the imminent loss of the old village scenery? I try to present my views to save the collective memory. We should no longer turn the old buildings to soulless dead specimens, but to design it as a living specimen of the soul.

Thesis Design, Individual project, 2014 Location: Beitou, Taipei, Taiwan, Advisors: Tseng Wei, Wu Guang Ting(wukwty@mail.ncku.edu.tw) Hsuen Cheng-Luen (clhsueh@mail.ncku.edu.tw) Media: Physical models, Digital models(Revit), Hand-drawing, film, Rhino+Grasshopper

Beitou River, which cuts through the down town of Bettou city, is the origin of the tourist resorts. With the hot spring, the Japanese started to construct this place during WWII. After the original Chinese government moved to Taiwan, thousands of solider settled down here. Recently, more and more touristorientated facilities were built and changed the whole landscape of Beitou.

By this research I found a "Time gap" between two sides of the river. And choose where the river faced the hugest gap as my site.

Important Transportation Node

The most important is that the visual connection betwaan the main road and old village between the gaps of high rises.

1945~2012

The Perception Between High-Rises

The change can be perceived more obviously at the metropolis than the rural area of Taiwan. The conventional building case of Taiwan is smaller than that of other countries. According to this, we can see the buildings built in different time intertwine, making the view of the city more diverse and showing the pattern of technological progress. Of course, the renewing of the entirely urban area is a method that can solve this problem. However, the old activity and memory are part of the citizens' lives. It is a question of preservation.

The old military community is surrounded by the tourist-orientated skyscrapers. To the old people here, the small aisle between the skyscrapers becomes their main road to home. And to the young people here, it is the only way they can seize the nostalgic feelings.

2012~ ????

So that, the gaps between high-rises are the place where I would like to show the citizen the history of the city.

Spaces Sample From Village

A Wall of Memory + New Water Infrastructure

The river becomes a museum where the history of the city can be seen. Because of the disorder of the construction, the events of time can be misconstrued to be chaotic. I would like to create a new order of time, helping people understand the importance of some events. Beside the activities, the special spaces of the Military community are the soul of the city.

This kind of the space provides the chance for the old activity to occur.

I study the size, material, and user of the space. I try to rebuild these ambiguous, mix-used spaces on the covered river.

I used figure ground to record the public space of the old village and transform the plan to a three-floor-height wall, which is the typical height of the old Beitou, starting to think of the space from these sections and trying to make a series of small spaces.

Five Pictures Reconstruct: the Memory of the Old Military Village

Seeing from the gaps between tall buildings from the main road, a shattered inner facade emerges. Each position of the gaps is directed to an open space. The activity of the open space is complicated, just like that of the original community. The activities inside the open space are complex and hard to define. The size of the open space is based on the original village's open space.

Another facade is a mirror-like outer facade. This side is facing the old military community that is going to have an urban renew plan. The material of the wall is punching stainless steel. During raining days the facade will be like a mirror, reflecting the new buildings.

And the size of the hole on the wall is decided by digital design based on the open spaces needed.The aisle between the tall buildings become the main way that peopele see the old village and the Datun mountain.

Just like the frames, point out the important things here.

The time to start construction is the same as that for the old village’s renew.

Copying the old urban context which is going to disappear. Also, giving the guideline for the future public space.

Facing the site where constructed in a very different time, a wall can be a separation and connection at the same time, turning the boundary between “new” and “old” to a reminiscent community centre and a living museum surrounded by the new buildings.

In fact, the true military community has been destroyed. A series of specimens which represents the old public activities and spaces is shown.

Wave Forces

Wave Direction

03 Guardian of the Coast This project is a competition project which aims to against tsunami. Upon researching, we found that waves do not move in a linear path and instead move in a circular one. To break the waves we must design a nonlinear boulder, as it has been proven that curved walls were better at keeping the waves away and decreasing their impact.

We then took into consideration the urban layout, to design a tsunami defense system that will decrease the damages done by this natural disaster. This defense system would be of three stages. The first being located within the water, these would be buoys. These buoys will first break the waves and decrease their force, they will then also help in saving people who might be washed off the shore and into the sea. The second line of defense would be the designed border at the seashore. These will act as wave breakers, they will include areas for store and areas for people to walk around in, with an elevated boardwalk going across it. The last line of defense would be one within the city, this would be yet another wave breaker.

The 1st line of defense

As illustrated above, these structures will be placed under a city road.

There will be pedestrian access on the level of the structures. These structures will act as a wave breaker once a tsunami hits, decreasing the impact of the tsunami on the city. The structure would have received signals from the first and second lines of defense, immediately alerting the people of the city that disaster is about to strike. The structures will also be retail spaces, for shops and may also carry out other functions.

This path of structures will be placed on the beach. There are three types of the structures, each serving a specific purpose, each of which is illustrated above, but when a tsunami strikes together act as a wave breaker.

Between the structures is a water turbine to generate electricity to send out signals, and supply the shelters with electricity. Once the turbine is activated it will trigger the alarm system.

This structure acts as a buoy. It has a dome top shell of solar panels located on the very top. The solar panels generate electricity for two purposes, one is for the alarm system, and the other is for electrical boat charging plugs. These plugs, and the docks will help the rescue team recharge their boats as they are out mid sea looking for survivors. This is not only a line of defense, but also the last resort for people being washed off shore and into the sea. The people will grab onto the buoys and wait for the rescue team to arrive, as a light signals that this buoy has someone on it to help the team locate people faster.

This structure is the shelter structure for when the tsunami strikes. The entrance is a submarine-like round door, to seal out all water. It stands higher than the other structures, for safety, and for people to be able to recognize the shelter spaces out of all the other structures when the tsunami strikes. The Top of the shelter has a solar panel system to generate electricity for the alarm system, and the shelter on the inside. This also has a dock for boats to be tied onto when the tides are still high.

04 Beyoung Big Data: Dispersed Biometric Urbanism The health information of our body should belong to everybody, not controlled by individuals, institutions, or corporations. The 21st century hospital dominates the method for people to know their body. Through the paid medical inspection in the hospital, we can get our body situation and information.

However, the location of the hospital is designed within a top-down system, and medical resources are not distributed evenly and are expensive. We seem to accept the uncertainty of our bodies, until we feel ill or are injured, and then we feel the fear that something could go wrong. Going to the hospital is like going into a big machine, searching the indicator, waiting for the number, getting a diagnosis, some therapy, surgery, and drugs. The bad-feeling of the hospital and the high-tech healthcare system construct a wall against our real lives.

Transportantion system as part of healthcare system This project combines health infrastructure with public transportation infrastructure through biometric sensing systems and real-time feedback related to our physical bodies and daily lives.

Since transportation infrastructure aims to move people around the city, can a dispersed system of health infrastructure leverage new knowledge networks about individual and collective health profiles? This project converts the bus stop into a public health interface.

Air-flow sensor

Movable Health Infrastructure This project located in Taiwan, uses a middle-out strategy based on augmenting and adjusting existing infrastructure to enhance the health of the city.

Putting the movable device around the bus stops provides a way for people to get information of their body spontaneously. The movable public devices which is expandable and can be updated to the latest technology. The public devices works on the Wi-fi and the electricity systems provided by the bus stops. The concept of the devices came from the stimming toys which help people to release their pressure while waiting or thinking. People can use the time while they are waiting for the bus to use the device and get their body information.

Biometric Urbanism The collected data is uploaded to an open-source Cloud, which volunteers the data to everybody.

Through this method, people will have equal access to their body information. The second layer of geography will be seen in the city and on the website at the same time, proving the information for people to understand the health of environment. Through this way the ownership of the health data can open to all of the people. The collected health data change the way we look at the city. This map influenced by the health status of people. And the health status, especially mental aspect, influenced by the events and activities of the city, pointing out the most active part of the city.
