The market thrived during the ancient and pre-modern ages. Prior to demolition, the location served as the migration point for the original Nanmensanshi (market), and market culture had a significant impact on the site.
We're entering a new era of market cities with extensive networks connecting people and places all over the world. Therefore, a new market satisfied modern people’s secondhand transaction requirements inspired an excitement to our imagination and sparks an urban revitalization and foster community diversity.

“When I pick up my children every day, I am afraid that they will run into the road, the pavement is difficult to walk on and it is dangerous.”
The pavement is too narrow, the surface is uneven and there is a lot of debris blocking access.

Animation Industry
China's first animation was born in 1922 and the first animation with sound in 1935. During the 1950s to 1960s, Chinese animation reached a peak. During this time China saw the emergence of new art forms such as puppet animation, paper-cut animation and ink animation, but then the turmoil of society brought the animation industry to a low point once again. After 1977, the Chinese animation industry was once again experiencing a creative boom, with faster production, a richer and more innovative range of subjects. However, around 1985, Chinese domestic animation began to suffer from the impact brought by imported animation. Under this impact, Chinese domestic animation began to suffer from under-aged content and shodd production until 2001.

Animation Cultural Center, as a cultural building, is separated from the commercial food market by a canal and from the bustling market complex on the other side. This location provides the center with convenient access to basic services for users visiting the building.
Our research group took three cities in the Yangtze River Delta region as research objects to learn the topic of Horizontal Metropolis.
We started with mapping and explored the spatial relationship in these region, especially the agriculture and industry area. Our research results was first presented in three altas, and will be completed into physical models and displayed in the museum in the future
Taking the existing protected architectures in Ningbo as a starting point, our research group explored Ningbo's urban memory(include culture,history stories...) through literature searches, interviews and other methods.
We also organized a series of activities like city walks and exhibitions for the public to help citizens know their home city.
The site is located at the intersection of three business districts in city center of Chongqing. Taking the aim of sustainable city, our project group divided this area into four parts. Since I participated in the project as an intern, I was mainly responsible for the residential part and I have done typology research and analysis diagram drawing.
This is a community center located in the city suburb, mainly serving employees and their families who work in the local factories. During the design process, our group took the sky bridge as the concept after considering about employees' needs and the future transport development of this area.
As an intern, I was responsible for the drawing of floor plans, analysis drawings, display animations and portfolio layout in this project.
