What is MRI for children?
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a procedure that uses a large magnet, radio waves, and a computer to create detailed images of organs and tissues in the body. It’s used to diagnose problems in many areas of the body.
MRI exams are painless.Your child will not feel magnetic fields or electromagnetic radiation waves. The MRI scan may take about 30-90 minutes.
Pediatric Imaging Suite
Families need to help their pediatric patients who have MRIs to burn off energy before the test and to sleep well after taking sedatives. So the waiting time before the test is long and they need a space to reduce stress and relieve emotions.
It's important to help families and patients have a pleasant experience during the waiting time.

This thesis project is a design project for an entertainment complex. An entertainment complex is not a single nightclub, bar, or hotel. It is an integrated functional community that provides a space for people to relax and release their stress.
Adults in big cities are faced with busy work, expensive rent and the pressure of living and spending. Entertainment Complex provides a space and environment for people in the city to release their stress and forget about their worries for a while through entertainment.
The appearance of the moon represents the coming of the night. The moon shows the way in the darkness of the night. It is pure, relaxing and can give energy. The bright moonlight contrasts with the darkness of the night and gives a dreamy feeling. This nightclub-based entertainment complex offers people a place to relax and transcend restrictions and limitations.

Meat: unsanitary, no fresh cabinet
Environment demands for selling items in the food market:
Vegetables: goods display, fresh keeping
Fruit: goods display, fresh keeping
Meat: Freezer
Cooked food (snacks, marinade): insulated container, rest area Green spaces
FORM INSPIRATION
FORM DEVELOPMENT
There are two main circulations to form the whole shape with a central pool. On the ground floor, people can buy cooked foods and enjoy them at open garden area. Children can play around and people can wash vegetables in the central pool. The two streamlines are mainly occupied by sale areas and green lines, so people can take a walk in the desirable environment when they shopping. After dinner, this place will transform as a linear parking serveing for community to relax and communication.
On the second floor, all the vegetable and fruit boothes are slope types, which not only maximizes the area of the display table, but also has a great visual effect. The counter has the function of keeping fresh and provides the seller with tables and chairs for rest.
The booth on the third floor, equipped with refrigerated cabinets to ensure food safety and health, and the design cosmetic selling environment at the same time.
