Project 1 EcoVert Tower -Sustainable Wastewater Treatment and Sky Garden Complex
Site: Rio de Janeiro Brazil Individual Academic Work Date: July.2024
The distribution of sewage treatment plants in Rio de Janeiro and the number of affected people
A lush, green city blending urban life with stunning natural landscapes
—— Rio de Janeiro Brazil
New processing systems are introduced
Mortality levels of Tiburonella viscana from Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon
Anomalies on embryo-larval development of Echinometra lucunter exposed to surface sediments from Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon
01 Glass Shell
The glass shell of the building is established. This shell provides a transparent and lightweight appearance for the entire building, while also offering a framework for subsequent structures.
02 Internal Floor Slab
Internal floor slabs are added to the building. These slabs provide the foundational structure for each floor, allowing for the division and utilization of space.
03 Cut-through the Slab
The internal floor slabs are cut through. This process allows for the creation of open spaces and connecting paths, providing flexibility for internal passage and functional zoning.
04 Connect to the Tower-slab
The slabs are connected to the tower-slab. This step strengthens the overall structure of the building, making each floor more stable and tightly connected.
05 Add Columns
These columns provide additional structural support, ensuring the safety and durability of the building.
06 Ramps Surround the Columns
These ramps not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of the building but also offer smooth connections between different floors, improving the functionality and convenience.
Visitors walk through the garden as if they were entering a dreamlike forest
The hollow design in the middle allows visitors to experience as if they were walking in the air
The river is connected to the outside world through the garden
Visitors on the top of the rooftop feel like a world apart
In order to better change the environment of the entire Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon Lake district, the transformation of the sewage treatment plant around the lake district according to the project can effectively solve the ecological water environment of the lake district and improve the quality of life of the surrounding residents

Triangular Combination
The most classic in Norwegian architecture is the roof design of the pointed roof, when they are arranged together and form a certain height difference, the combination of triangular forms produces different new expressions

Project 3 The Marine Integration
Basic Element Analysis
Function analysis
The basic units are composed within a bounding box area of 3.6m × 3.6m × 3.6m, consisting of 2.4m high walls and a 1.2m high curved roof, with support columns positioned at the corners. In the combination, platforms, stairs, and cross-support columns are interconnected to form the structure.
The Manta Generation Model
The manta rays are well-adapted to the Pearl River Estuary, and their graceful, streamlined form influenced our design. Inspired by the shape of the manta ray, we created a smooth, low-drag glass structure that symbolizes harmony between humans and nature, while also paying tribute to the local ecosystem.
A transport elevator and waiting lane are set up in the middle of the two-way lane to transport supplies and people to the city below.
The unit combinations between every two bridge piers are arranged identically, each equipped with a parking lot and an elevator providing access to the bridge. People can freely move to any part of the building via stairs and platforms.
Each transport elevator is equipped with a corresponding parking lot under it
The cross-section of the bridge
The parking lot is directly connected to the urban cluster, and stairs and platforms can lead to the inner city.
