    In the first scheme, we propose a change to the original location of the gym. Instead, we suggest placing the lounge area and conference room on the side with curtain walls. This arrangement would maximize the amount of sunlight entering the space, creating a brighter and more inviting atmosphere.
          The renovated amenity space is designed to offer a comprehensive range of services that cater to the diverse needs of the staff in the office building The space has been designed to provide a seamless transition between different functional areas, ensuring a sense of cohesion and continuity throughout the space.
          The design is intended to create an inviting and functional space that enhances the after-work life of the staff in the office building. The step-shaped moss wall is a particularly unique feature that adds an element of visual interest and dynamism to the space, helping to create a vibrant and engaging atmosphere.
          In the second scheme, our goal is to preserve the original layout based on the client's preference, which means keeping the gym in its original location. Alongside that, we propose adding a lounge area on the opposite side. Furthermore, we have integrated a plant system into the space, featuring the green wall designed in a step shape to infuse vibrancy into the environment

          Immersive Theatre for the Drama Sleep No More
          Renovation of Paper Factory in Marzabotto Competition
          
    Duration: 2018.05-2018.06
          Instructor: Prof. Li Bing
          Category: Design
          Site: Marzabotto, Italy
          Building Area: 4200 ㎡
          The project is a renovation of the Mantuan paper factory and the idea of the renovation starts from exploring correspondence between drama scene and space. Dramatic conflict produces spatial perception. And the narrative order of space is in connection with the development of the drama. A new type of theatre called "Immersive Theatre" is built up to create experiences where audience members give up their "observer" status to become co-actors and co-creators of the narrative and of the storytelling process. And the audience will have an emotional resonance from the architecture.
          You will be inside the space, choosing what scenes to see, creating movements and physically responding to actions to create site-responsive theatre. The performance will never be the same. In the theatre, audience is the storyteller, actor is the storyteller, space is the storyteller. Everything is the storyteller.

    With the global spread of the pandemic, the importance of social distancing has become increasingly evident. This installation aims to tackle the current social distancing situation by emphasizing its significance. Our goal is to promote the practice of social distancing throughout the epidemic while also rekindling a sense of intimacy in the post-pandemic era. By integrating interactive lighting and fashion design, we utilize the human body as a symbol and a reminder of the need to maintain appropriate social distance.
          CONCEPT/ MODE
          Infectious diseases often have a direct relationship with breathing, so we have chosen breath as the central theme for our installation. By utilizing the switching of light colors and flicker frequencies, we aim to convey human emotions with the twinkle frequency corresponding to the respiratory rate. Through the combination of fabrics with different density and texture, the air is visualized. Through overlapping techniques, we create a dynamic play of lightness with different levels of transparency.
          The installation will feature three distinct modes:
          1. Normal Breathing: Warm white lights will be used to simulate the natural rhythm of human breath.
          2. Rejection during the Pandemic: Red lights with increased flicker frequencies and the sound of a buzzer will convey a sense of rejection.
          
    
    
    
    
    3. Welcoming in the Post-Pandemic Era: Colored lights will serve as a welcoming signal, symbolizing a return to normalcy.
          
    Overall, our installation seeks to explore the connection between breath, light, and human emotions, while representing different responses to the pandemic situation.

          Food Space for the Brand HENRI CHARPENTIER
          2020 Spring Interior Design Studio
          Duration: Graduate, 2020.4-2020.5
          Instructor: Jon Otis
          Category: Design Studio in Pratt
          Site: Manhattan, NY
          This project is to design a food space for the dessert brand HENRI CHARPENTIER. The site is located at 126 5th Ave, Manhattan. The proposal is for a type of composite-space that merges a sophisticated afternoon or evening dessert and bar destination, with a more casual retail space selling various artisanal sweets and desserts. The design also addresses the new paradigm we are presently living in: a viral pandemic - create spaces where people can see others, hear others, but not come in contact with them directly.

        CONCEPT - DUAL- ATMOSPHERE SPACE
          - ADJUSTABLE SPACE
          - SOPHISTICATED MINIMALISM
          - SIMPLE AND CLEAN
          
    DESCRIPTION
          The design will feature a separate dessert bar and retail space selling sweet baked goods and desserts as well as items togo. Coffee, beverages, tea and desserts will be served in the afternoon and in the evening specialty desserts will be paired with cocktails or wine. The design will seek to convey a consistent continuity in materials but will have two diverse atmospheres for visitors to experience. Customers can select uniquely-packaged sweets while also maintaining social distancing. The retail space provides the opportunity to sell products to take home during a pandemic.
          
    
    ADDRESSING PANDEMIC
          During pandemic period, Retail provide to-go items, shopping in the store considering social distancing Bar provide dining space with separating fabric
          
    After pandemic(post-pandemic), Adjustable curtains will enable larger group gatherings
          WHY FABRIC AS PARTITION FOR DINING SPACE?
          
    UP TO 72 HOURS:
          This is the amount of time coronavirus can stay active on hard, shiny surfaces Think things like play equipment, door and public transport handles and your phone.
          UP TO 24 HOURS:
          This is the amount of time it took for researchers to find no more viable traces of the virus on cardboard. This is also a good guide for other porous surfaces
          
    Porous surfaces are much less likely to hold viable amounts of the virus.
          Finally decided to use cotton and linen translucent fabric as the partition material. Cotton and linen fabrics give people a sense of intimacy and comfort. At the same time, the translucent fabric provides a certain degree of privacy. It also meets the psychological needs of people under pandemic: you can hear or see each other to a certain extent, but you cannot have direct contact with someone.

        CURTAIN RAIL SYSTEM & TRACK LIGHTING
          Consider social distancing during pandemic, using curtain systems to separate people. When it is post-pandemic, adjustable curtains will enable larger group gatherings.
          
    Also, the rails of the curtain in dining space are extended as the rails of track lighting in retail space.
          During Pandemic: Curtains seperate people; Sliding doors block the flow of people passing through the dining space and retail space.
          When post-pandemic, the curtains are opened and people resume social communication.
          During pandemic, the curtains as partition to seperate people.
          Post-pandemic: Allow group gatherings; Sliding doors opend to allow the flow of people passing through the dining space and retail space.

    An Installation in Barcelona Pavilion
          2020 Summer Option Studio
          
    
    Duration: Graduate, 2020.6-2020.7

          Category: Team Work, Co-Designer Xinduo Guo
          Site: Barcelona, Spain
          The Barcelona Pavilion demonstrates a spatial fluidity by creating interlocking space through vertical and horizontal planes, visible or implied. Our installation enlarges the spatial experience of the pavilion by emphasizing the body’s relationship with the surroundings (proprioception). The installation also designs circulations to foster movement around the space.
          
    
    FORM FINDING PROCESS WITH GRASSHOPPER
          Upon arrival, the installation begins from the stairs and extends toward the west entrance. Walking around the installation and the Barcelona Pavilion, visitors are sometimes enclosed and sometimes exposed.
          CLIENT AND PROGRAM ANALYSIS TILING STRATEGY
          Tiles are assigned based on the “planarity” of the pavilion. Thus tiles in vertical and horizontal directions have different tiles and show a transition from flat to steep. The shadow of the tiling becomes a translation of the structure and direction of the forces above, changing based on the time of the day. Aluminum sheet is selected as the material because of its ductility, reflectivity, strength, and ability to provide shades.
