TZUYING WANG Interior Design Portfolio 2018-2022
hi Growing up in a multicultural environment, the surrounding has cultivated my independence, inclusiveness, and responsibility.
The diverse educational background allows me to see the world from a multi-perspective. As a transfer student from digital media and design, I incorporated the passion of photography into interior design that small things matter. The composition, lighting, and aesthetics tell a story.
Interior design is a combination of art and science. A mix of ration and emotion brings vitality to space.
I always see essential detail from simplicity, making the experience full of artistic and full of surprises.
Every interior design is a unique story accomplished by users and designers, built on time and space.

CLIENT ANALYSIS USER JOURNEY Trevor Frost, from Richmond, Virginia, is a photographer and filmmaker for National Geographic and an adventure guide for Eddie Bauer. Due to
WAKE UP
the nature of the job, he travels frequently. The location is usually wild places such as Alaska, British Columbia, Africa, Amazon, Neptune Islands, Australia, Borneo, and Sumatra.
BEFORE
Trevor, as a National Geographic Young Explorer, has received a variety of
LEAVE
awards and grants, which provides him with advanced equipment.
Focusing on the human relationship with wildlife and wild places is his
AT WORK
primary goal. Through the photograph and documentary, Trevor is telling stories that illuminate the intelligence of animals. He strives to educate others about animal intelligence and the importance of our environment. He has an incredibly adventurous spirit and a compassionate soul.
"We are the children of ecosystems," Trevor said. He participates in a Non-Profit Organization - "Wildlife Conservation" concentrating on nature and global wildlife conservation.

"Use my LENS to educate others in what's really happening. There's always something new to find. I, will be the one to find."
Trover Beck Frost
VITALITY
CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT
The concept- VITALITY is achieved through meandering form, layering, and earth tone colors. Applying the abstractive shape of snake and crocodile from the client's photography to enhance the intimate relationship between humans and wildlife is the primary purpose. The continuous line represents the continuation of life. Curvilinear beauty which significantly enriches the expression of art and is a line full of life force. Furthermore, the color palette- olive green implies environmental consciousness as a significant subject- wilderness is the necessity of the human spirit. Earth tone and wood material successfully achieve living with nature. Therefore, vitality is completely demonstrated under the above design elements.
SITE & BUILDING ANALYSIS 630 INDIAN ST. SAVANNAH, GA 31401

HEHUANSHAN MOUNTAIN REN’AI TOWNSHIP, NANTOU COUNTY, TAIWAN
Hehuanshan Mountain Hehuanshan’s high altitude, low light pollution, and other exceptional conditions make it a sanctuary for stargazers. The main peak is located in the Taroko National Park area with an elevation of 3,416 meters. The Hehuan Mountain Group has five hills and is part of the Central Mountain System.
The main peak is not the highest point in the Hehuan Mountain group, but the top of the mountain is excellent. It is not only a popular attraction for mountaineering but also a good place for many people to shoot stars and stargazing. It takes only two hours to drive from the flat to reach the mountain above 3,000 meters. Since HehuanshRan is the only place that might have snow in winter, it is the coolest spot in Taiwan where the temperature usually ranges from 61 °F to 86 °F.
View the mountain from the top, the shape of the ridge is like starfish. Hehuanshan peak is centered on the main peak and extends radially around it. The peak has a triangle shape which becomes the significant element in my design.
The photo may not yet see how spectacular it is. When you stand on the peak of a mountain, you will find that the momentum and mountains are endless. Therefore, I choose the top peak of Hehuanshan as my site based on its reputation, uniqueness, and magnificence.
The program is a series of architectural spaces that support architectural design experience of entry, arrival, gathering, tower and observation platforms that are architectural design elements for a Cosmos Observatory Structure".
ENTROPY
Entropy increases as matter and energy in the universe degrade to an ultimate state of inert uniformity.
Concept Application
The entire building is shaped by a giant triangle shape and it forms by the mountain ridge. I follow this indication as my site symbol to connect the site. The huge tower with a bend structure connected to the entire architecture is not only for assistance but also for aesthetics. The site is located at the peak of the mountain, the architecture would be too high if it stands directly on the ground. So, I take advantage of the underground space which can lower the building.
