We are born to adapt to group life. We deal with different people, intentionally or unintentionally. These subtle interactions and communications form an interesting part of our life.

/ CURRICULUM VITAE /

So is the design of architecture. Different people have different expectations and dependence on it. It is the uncertainty that leads us to discuss the community. Therefore, the theme of my portfolio follows the idea of “SYMBIOSIS”. Sometimes, in order to achieve the best interests of one group of people, the needs of others will be sacrificed. I think everyone's needs are reasonable. The interesting point of design is to meet the physiological and psychological needs of all users to the greatest extent.

/ EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND /

Different crowd activities make the building more substantial, people through the building to produce intersection, thus creating more beautiful moments.

Reconstruction of Community Center

II. RESTORING A DIGNIFIED LIFE Residential Design in Afghanistan

/ SUMMARY OF MOTIVATION LETTER / My affinity with architecture and realization of its significance began with the cutaway perspective view of Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore in the 2016 China Geographic Magazine. Five years of study at Chongqing University graced me solid theoretical foundation to understand this major. Research-based design helped me learn about other related fields, such as economics, psychology, international environment and safety. Based on these experiences, I independently finished the thesis, “Restoring A Dignified Life,” exploring the formation and history of this particular group, and proposing architecture and facilities to enable them to have a better life. I also attached importance to practical applications. Through active participation in Surveying and Mapping of Ancient Buildings in Sichuan, I utilized some advanced measurement equipment and searched for various alternative methods of indirect measurement, and discovered the changes in building characteristics over time and area. In the “Construction Session”, I made full use of material properties to address the issues of cutting errors and production efficiency, solved the problems of large-scale assembly and transportation, and completed a spatial structure construction model that both meets safety and sustainable development standards. In 2019, I was invited as one of the three chief designers for an International Urban Design Competition of Lishui City in Zhejiang Province. There, beyond the preliminary design concept, I was mainly responsible for the specific design and design manifestations. Having researched the panorama of 152 square kilometers, we employed spatial models to pursue landscape and city coexistence, which ultimately won us the Creative Future ShanShui City Proposal Awards. The more theory and expertise I accumulated from the initial integration of engineering and art to exploring multidisciplinary fields, the more I sensed the highly demanding of architecture. By contrast, domestic architectural education has some limitations in concept and design methods. Thus, I set my mind to upgrade international knowledge, absorb more diverse elements and cutting-edge technology, and lay a broader cornerstone for my creative design career. In the upcoming postgraduate education, I hope to stick with the Architecture track. I have long reckoned it as a creative and sustainable architectural project to cope with the various challenges of technology, space and development encountered in the built environment sustainability and climate issues. My ultimate goal is to build a complete design work with superb innovative technology and humanistic thinking, creating a smarter and safer environment for users and companies.

This is a renovation design for existing buildings. Under the impact of tourism development, the life style of villagers has changed greatly. The change of life pattern has resulted in the erosion of villagers' dominant position. In this process, the original community center can no longer undertake its function, and is gradually forgotten by people. Therefore, the reconstruction design of the original building can make it become the social and cultural center of the villagers again, and can better meet the spiritual needs of the villagers.

DETAIL CONSTRUCTION The scale of pleasant courtyard space for the community creates a more intimate environment for activities. Low partitions and seats offer more possibilities for the crowd to communicate. The large semi-outdoor space provides a natural transition while providing better stayability. In contrast to the upper full mass, the importance of community centers is emphasized.

Set up planting platform, for the building's high school court space to create a more natural space experience, blurring the indoor and outdoor boundaries. Remove more indoor partitions to create a freeflowing space experience while enhancing the lighting and ventilation environment inside the building.

In Afghanistan, there are such a group of women who have experienced cruel wars and disasters. The survivors gather together and gradually form this distinctive group, which is growing. They are wandering on the edge of society. Although they are in a difficult situation, their vitality is very tenacious. The residential area designed for such a group not only meets their basic living needs, but also provides them with spiritual home. In this private plot, they soothe the wounds of the past and create a better future.

STRUCTURE DESIGN

MECHANICS SIMULATION Using the force simulation software, the force model of the spoke suspension foof is constructed. The optimal structural shape of the roof is determined by computer simulation. The force is adjusted by "GENETIC ALGORITHM", till the roof reaches a stable state and the final form is determined. It gives the initial assigment of the force of the weiching and stabilization ropes together with the initial shape.

The movement of people around the block has distinct characteristics of time change, and the environment of the block is changing between lifeless and crowded. In addition to office functions, this high-rise building contains more leisure and entertainment functions, providing more choices for the boring city life. At the same time, people's activities are different in different periods of time, it adapts to various functional requirements. The design attempts to light up and wake up the vitality of the surrounding blocks and create a more interesting life for the surrounding groups with this building as the center.

PERSPECTIVE VIEW This particular site is not only the basis for construction, but also represents a research site for urban life in blocks. Blocks are the most familiar form of community, with complex functions and rich and diverse spaces. The building is not only an enclosed space, but also open to the city. It participates in the construction of the urban environment and conducts dialogue and communication with the surrounding environment. author of the drawing: Xu Jiacheng
