shape architectural form, while negotiating

the tensions and dialogues with historical preservation.

By transforming the former river path into a pedestrian network , we reshape

c i r c u l a t i o n a n d i n f l u e n ce b u i l d i n g u s e .

Walkways intersect with architecture and

lead to plazas that encourage gathering.

The inner loop supports commercial activity, while the outer loop offers

lodging—balancing vibrancy and tranquility.

This design invites new ways of engaging

with traditional architecture and redefines the identity of the street.

Home as a Spatial Refuge.

Arc × Wi n g Year: 2025

Student Summer Seminar x Japan Project:

This project explores how everyday tools

can be reconfigured to create structures with spatial and architectural qualities.

This project explores how basic circular tools can be transformed into architectural structures

through geometric logic. By connecting circular units into triangular configurations, a stable framework emerges. The design introduces inverse curvature by alternating the orientation

of units, allowing the structure to self-balance and achieve both spatial depth and formal

stability. Through this method, a new spatial language is generated from simple materials, challenging traditional notions of structure and form.

Harmony Springs

To boost education rates, community involvement is key. Our goal is to create

an inclusive school environment through two strategies: a central courtyard and a water well. The courtyard, linked to all classrooms and offices, offers

a safe space for student interaction. The well, meeting a vital need, becomes a gathering point for the community, encouraging diverse social exchange.

This fosters mutual understanding—enriching students' learning while deepening the community's appreciation of education.

This project explores modular landscape interventions that integrate flood prevention, green public spaces, and playful urban infrastructure. By layering functional elements—such as

drainage, lighting, and seating—into adaptable units, the design aims to enhance community engagement while addressing ecological and infrastructural needs.
