01 THE SEASONS IN THE CITY

In addition to being highly relevant to ecological issues, building materials also influence public awareness and social culture. We want to re-wrap the glass buildings Shading as billboard the short-life cycle, naturally degrading mycelium with Seasonal Material Columbia University, 2022 Fall, Cooperation Project as the shading system, and the bamboo scaffoldings Instructor: David Benjamin Site: New York(Time Square) and renovation the long-term in mycelium involved In the process of making model,maintenance we found that the growing of mycelium shows a process. quality of seasonal from growing to decaying similar with tree leaves. This quality is followed by its texture change which led to our focus on the aesthetic quality of the material.We intend to make fully use of the aesthetic quality of biological material to create a new city image, In the process of making mycelium model, we 40% of the world's carbon emissions are caused by buildings. Taking Manhattan as an example, the aiming to be a representative of glass facade international-style high-rise buildings that emerged after World War II are typical of energy-intensive found thatand thescale growing of mycelium shows a buildings that rely heavily on HVAC systems. In 2019, New York City enacted local law97 to limit carbon emissions from high-rise buildings, with a goal of reducing carbon emissions by 80% by 2050 and fines up the construction process to reduce for buildings that exceed the limit. Following this trend, we choose mycelium as the subject of this study, quality ofcarbon seasonal from growing decaying The we experimented with these carbon-negative materials to see if its scaling up in buildings can mitigate or emission of urbanto architecture. even reverse carbon emission figures.We calculated the carbon footprint per unit mycelium throughout the process according to the laboratory scale, the whole process is carbon negative, and the consumption of similar with tree we leaves.

40% of the world's carbon emissions are caused by buildings. Taking Manhattan as an example, the international-style high-rise buildings that emerged after World War II are typical of energy-intensive buildings that rely heavily on HVAC systems. In 2019, New York City enacted local law97 to limit carbon emissions from high-rise buildings, with a goal of reducing carbon emissions by 80% by 2050 and fines for buildings that exceed the limit. Following this trend, we choose mycelium as the subject of this study, we experimented with these carbon-negative materials to see if its scaling up in buildings can mitigate or even reverse carbon emission figures.We calculated the carbon footprint per unit mycelium throughout the process according to the laboratory scale, the whole process is carbon negative, and the consumption of sterilization will be further reduced in industrial scale.

The condition of the environment determines how myceiulm grows in the substrate. When the oxygen and huminidy becomes rich, mycelium could grow farther. On the Surface where there isn't much water, mycelium would grow slower and even transform into mushroom later. But the bottom part of the object with enough oxygen and water becomes whiter and more solid than the top part. Compared between the brick and the slice of the material, the thinner of the material leads to a better quality.

The publicity impact of glass curtain walls in high-rise buildings in the 20th century drew public attention to technology and development, and the use of glass in high-rises proliferated as a result.

and huminidy becomes rich, mycelium could grow farther. On the Surface where there isn't much water, mycelium would grow slower and even transform into mushroom later. But the bottom part of the object with enough oxygen and water becomes whiter and more solid than the top part. Compared between the brick and the slice of the material, the thinner of the material leads to a better quality.

The history of glass production led to the fact that the aesthetic quality of a material determines public consciousness which in turns highly influences the scaling up process. And our project is designed to be the start point of a new era to expand the ecological ideology through a new paradigm of the city appearance.We chose Times Square as the starting point. In the context of Local Law 97, we can foresee a continuous renovation of high-rise buildings in Times Square. The renovation process will interrupt the normal operations of the building while generating significant carbon emissions and consuming labor, and after the highrise is wrapped for a few months, it will be business as usual. We want to make a semi-permanent system with two low carbon materials, bamboo as a permanent scaffolding to reshape the exterior of the building, and mycelium as a seasonal shade on the facade periodically, the new system will redefine the renovation process.

In order to avoid additional carbon emissions during the manufacturing process, the mycelium shade is manufactured using a combination of manual and mold. Four inches is the maximum size of mycelium that can be exposed to oxygen for normal growth, and this is the most basic module for the shade. The smallest mold unit is a 4 inch high, one inch wide strip of mycelium, which is stacked together and filled with mycelium after a week of incubation, bamboo is used to hold the layers in place. Each shade will occupy two spaces outside the curtain wall panels .and will be 8feet wide The initial height varies from 5feet to 8feet.

TOKYO 'MATEL' Home of Hikikomori

Tianjin University, 2021,Individual Project Instructor: Liwei Chen Site: Tokyo(Shibuya)

Hikikomori is an extreme example that they afraid of or dislike leaving their room and fulfill their need of comunication on the Internet. This project tend to combine the system of hotel and internet cafe and create a new system of communication that benefit both the tourists and hikikomori.

03 GABRIEL’S ENLIGHTENMENT Kano Education Center

Tianjin University, 2021, Individual Project Instructor: Liwei Chen Site: Kano(Nigeria)

Terrorism has become a huge threat to the world.

People believe that the rising of the organization could be explained by belief difference. According to research, those who joined the group were mostly uneducated people who don’t get the chance to see the outside world and know what the reality is.

In order to change the situdation, I provide the kids in Kano with a center to know the importance of connecting with the outside world.

RISEN BY THE WIND Kwun Tong Office Tower

Tianjin University, 2021, Cooperation Project Instructor: Hongwei Yang, Nadong Zhao Site: Kwun Tong(Hongkong)

Guantang is an old industrial location in Hongkong with decades of history. However, it has become an unproductive area with old buildings and industries. people would like to change the situdation according to the survey. We tend to increase the wind flow and prevent sunshine using green technique, in order to create a comfortable environment and attract young people.

LIGHT TRACED Exploring By Making

Columbia University, 2023 Spring, Individual Project Instructor: Ada Tolla, Giuseppe Lignano

This design is a further return and exploration for me. I use my past eyes to reexamine familiar materials in life, reshaping and translating them with existing knowledge. In the process of exploration, I picked up these fragments of memory and used ropes as a medium to discover their characteristics, using them to construct my imagination. And I recorded observations and creations through my camera as the medium for narrative.

DEVIL LAKE HOUSE Residential

Client Private; Location Devil Lake, Ontario, Canada; Program Seasonal cottage;Area 390 m² / 4,200 ft²; Status In construction

Located on a narrow ridge sloping toward a protected lake in Ontario, the Devil Lake House is conceived as a series of seasonal cabins that disperse and connect to take advantage of the panoramic views of the lake to the south and the forest to the west. The final structure creates a modern expansion to an existing multi-family compound overlooking Devil Lake.
