Architecture, as I perceive it, intersects with politics, economics, and culture. In today’s complex world, independent thinking and judgment are essential for generating impactful outcomes, even beyond traditional architectural boundaries. Through my undergraduate studies and professional experience, I discovered that sustainability encompasses environmental impact reduction as well as improving human well-being, including health and finances. My goal as an architect is to empower users while prioritizing sustainability, contributing to a livable and sustainable future. My portfolio showcases my knowledge and exploration of architecture, encompassing both academic and professional.

Rebearth Commune_Live Work Home
Ocean Terminal, Edinburgh| Year 4 course |
Architecture design: Tectonic | Individual work
At Rebearth Commune, we explore the restructuring of the construction sector towards a model that embraces a circular economy. This model focuses on the reuse of construction and demolition waste coupled with the integration of low embodied energy materials as a means of questioning the current use of carbon-intensive construction methods. This concept, used together with designing for the specifics of disassembly, adaptability, and flexibility, aims to not only increase the length of the building’s useful life but also allow it to embrace a circular economy.
Located in West Edinburgh’s Ocean Terminal, the designated demolition site is situated. By corporating earth material with an existing steel frame structure the program transforms the closed-down Debenhams store with poor thermal performance into a passively heated building that combines dwelling and workplace.
The ground floor of our building features an open market with a stunning sea view, creating a vibrant atmosphere. The first and second floors offer 16 warm, comfortable, south-facing rooms that serve as living spaces. Located on north side of the building, there are some working spaces include indoor and outdoor maker spaces, workshops for processing earth and plastic, and a variety of tools available for rent. We have studio and lecture spaces for larger gatherings and hands-on experiments. Finally, the top floor features a beautiful roof garden and an exhibition space for showcasing finished works.
As architects, we are used to the idea of starting a new project from a blank slate, but how much do we actually know about the way buildings ‘end’, how they are demolished and the true costs and consequences of razing buildings to the ground? When it comes to making buildings, there is no blank slate from which to start afresh. In reality, the built environment sector uses more resources and throws away more waste than any other.In 2014, for example, 120,000,000 tons of waste were generated from construction, demolition and excavation, which constituted approximately 60% of UK’s total waste that year.
The Methodology of Reuse
Defining Brief-No Blank Slate-Architectures of Reuse
Edinburgh is facing several interconnected urban issues, including a housing crisis, a lack of community facilities, and insufficient live-work spaces. The housing crisis has resulted in a shortage of affordable housing options, and the pandemic has exacerbated the problem by increasing the cost of living in the city. This, in turn, has had a significant impact on small businesses, making it difficult for them to operate and thrive. Furthermore, the lack of community facilities in some areas of the city can make it challenging for residents to access essential services and resources.
One possible solution to these problems could be to create a live-work spaces, which would provide small businesses with affordable premises to operate from while also offering residents flexible workspaces that can be used for a variety of purposes. This approach could help to stimulate local economic growth and provide a range of benefits for the wider community, including increased access to facilities and services.
Therefore, start from the wee hub as a pototype, the location of existing workshop in edinburgh, ties the function in the network.

Rich commerce engages in fishing, shipbuilding, flour milling, fabric production, whaling, docks, etc. Local Leith workers produce goods that are then sent elsewhere.
Continued industrial growth in Leith includes expanding railways, increased glassworks, and ongoing productivity. Little change has occurred in the past 20 years, and Leith Central Station is fully operational.
The goods station at the harbor is still in use. Leith suffered little damage during WWI and remains a busy port. Leith and Edinburgh have now been amalgamated.

Historical Context
Survey of existing Ocean Terminal Steel Frame Structure for potential reuse
The project argues for a full spectrum of evaluation of fragments,with their transformative forms throughout their life cycle taken into consideration. Conducted survey, assessed condition, and explored reuse options for existing Ocean Terminal steel frame structure. Besides, rammed earth has been introduced into the existing structure to address building’s poor thermal performance.

The rammed earth tubs are matched to the existing column grid, creating an economical structural system.
The function division has been carefully considered so that the living space is arranged on the south side, with the working area on the opposite side. The retail function has been kept in its original position.
The existing steel frame structure, along with the facade and floor system, has undergone thorough analysis to optimize reuse and facilitate future design enhancements.
Based on the current condition of the materials, their life expectancy has been predicted. Concrete and steel elements tend to have the longest lifespan, while insulation or mechanical systems generally exhibit a shorter durability.
Celebrating Space
The main steel frame has been preserved, and the existing skylight saved to maximize natural light. Paired with rammed earth, these elements create a celebratory, dynamic space. Beautiful light and shadows cast on the rammed earth tub, changing with time, give the building a sense of breathing.

PHYGITAL HABITANT:
REFINE THE SOCIAL BOUNARDIES OF HIKIKOMORI
Vacant parking lots, Japan| Year 3 course | Architecture design: Exploration | Individual work
In Japan, there exists a phenomenon known as hikikomori’. It was discovered by a psychiatrist called Saito Tamaki, who defines it as: “A state in which a person confines himself t his room or home and does not participate in society for six months or longer.” It is a very extreme form of social isolation that seems to exist solely in this country.
What will happen to the hikikomori when the Metaverse arrives?
Chinese State Ministry of Security criticised the Metaverse as it could attract young people into the “digital drug kingdom”, making them spend irresistibly long periods without contact with others in real life. However, British daily journalist Leo Lewis wondered if the Metaverse could become a “vibrant society,”. Thus, helping hikikomori feel more accepted and evolve as “brave settlers of a prairie where everyone will soon want to make his home.”
As stated by Foucault in’ Lives of Infamous man’.“Some part of them to reach us, a beam of light had to illuminate them, for a moment at least...without that collision, it’s very unlikely that any word would be there to recall their fleeting trajectory.” I have designed and turned a self-sustaining movable home supported by blockchain under technological optimism into a second life of history, making the appearance of a multitude possible. A world of the future is a hybridised one between the real and the virtual, and not the physical dystopia, even if it might become one.
I believe Metaverse is a beam of light that shines from the outside for a moment for the history of the infamous ( hikikomori) to emerge. It acts as a power that watches these lives, pursues them that lends its attention. It is the power of the web, based on electricity, to create a new narrative of the past, present and future.
The architecture is situated in a vacant parking lot in Tokyo’s city center, chosen as the initial design base to revitalize a forgotten alley with the help of NFT exhibitions. The shelf serves as a medium for hikikomori to connect with the digital world and creates a pleasant light environment inside. The extension of the car’s back beyond the shelf indicates its occupancy, as cars serve as the nomadic living quarters for hikikomori, arranged by a central mechanism.

This is the central mechanism located in the centre of the structure to support the basic daily living of the hikikomori, including water, electricity, and food. The rainwater
Physical | Self-sustaining
Apart from the central mechanism, the individual car units are self-sustaining as well. The mobile nomadic cars allow the hikikomori to wander around the real world with water tanks and solar panels to provide enough energy for basic life during the journey. As shown in map, empty parking lots in Tokyo will be built as stations for the Hikikomori to resupply their cars and make short stops.
Physical-Digital:Interview with 5 hikikomori
Transforming the mobile living unit-car into a micro-living space enables hikikomori individuals to inhabit their personal worlds while maintaining a connection to the external environment. In the tangible realm, features like water bottles and solar panels facilitate hikikomori exploration within the city. Meanwhile, in the digital sphere, smart shelves in towers or on the car provide opportunities for them to immerse themselves in virtual experiences.
“I felt that my room was my only sanctuary, I was living with my parents but they didn‘t even knock on my door.I felt the pain on my side of the door. But on the other side of the door, my mum also felt the pain.”
is a suffocating country to live in, want more recognition of individuality. want to become an automotive engine designer actually.”
“Dogs don’t betray, unlike humans and they are very honest. She was my one and the only best friend in the entire world.”
“The word of God become into my heart, and knew that I was not alone anymore. It’s a relief from my hikikomori time.”
“Knitting a jumper is like talking to a friend.”
When connected to the virtual world, objects are inspired by hikikomori’s real-life experiences. A series of interviews revealed their strong emotional connection with specific objects, which influenced the design of their homes in the Metaverse.

AN AQUAMAN FESTIVAL: A FISHERY COMMUNITY
Makoko, Lagos, Nigeria| Competition 2022| Individual work
“On the long list of my low-income families pressing needs, education ranks below sustenance.”
---Interview with a Makoko inhabitant
This project aims to empower the local fishing community by providing better equipment to increase their yield. Additionally, it seeks to integrate the education system with their income by establishing a strategy for industrial transformation in the region. On a broader scale, it addresses flooding issues with a low-tech, flexible plan tailored to local conditions.
The project narrative begins with the Yemojia festival.
What will happen when sea level rise?
“On the long list of my low-income families pressing needs, education ranks below sustenance.”
---Interview with a Makoko inhabitant
Makoko, located on the coast of mainland Lagos, Nigeria, is a typical fishing community There are several challenges and social issues in this region. First, the fishing and oil industry, as Lagos’s pillar industry, is undergoing confrontation. The oil spill from the oil refinery significantly threatened the ecological environment, producing a terrible blow to the fishing industry.
Meanwhile, the local environment is harmed by plastic waste as well. With poor public awareness of environmental protection, the sanitation level of water is threatening inhabitants’ health. Makoko children are the most disadvantaged in Lagos, who live on the water without proper education.
Following the overview of the environmental strategy, this page explains the specific interaction between the four functions, including the living units, the Yemojia temple, the plastic workshop/market and the fishery farm.
Generally, the four functions are complementing each other to a certain degree. For examole, the fishery farm produce fetilizer and clean water for plantation, while the plantation will produce food to the market.

Design Gloabl and Manufacture Local: Exploring Free Form Rammed Eammed Earth Structure to Revilitaise Han Great Wall
Dunhuang, China | Personal Project |
“Vernacular architecture represents the essence of material technologies in being a pure and, generally, a direct expression of the structural and constructional potential of the material.”
Rivka Oxman
This project is a research-based endeavor that is still a work in progress. It represents a direction I aim to explore further within the Master’s program.
The proposal aims to transform the use of earth as a building material from mundane to an architectural language. The research focuses on examining and exploring traditional materials by employing digital form-finding methodologies and fabrication techniques to explore the potential of using earth materials in both practical and aesthetic contexts.
A shell structure will be designed in conjunction with the existing Han Great Wall in Dunhuang, China, to protect the damaged parts and revitalize the surrounding village. The new economic system, “Design Global, Manufacture Local,” is applied to the design production process to address environmental concerns and enhance the income of the local inhabitants in Dunhuang.
To a larger extent, the proposal intends to narrow the knowledge gap between traditional methods of building manufacture and modern digital practice by offering a framework in the fields of architectural design and construction.
Introduction Design Approach
Building made out of the earth is going to be a forgotten art.
Earth has been used for nearly ten centuries as the basis for homes, villages, and cities across all continents. Thanks to its geological nature, China is featured by numerous structures of raw earth of considerable dimensions, recognized as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. However, one of the first barriers to the use of earth is its negative connotation as a poor building material which must be refur-bished after a short time. As Industry 4.0 unfolds a rapid adoption of digital manufacturing techniques in the architecture and construction field, with a strong focus on additive manufacturing and circular economy. The increasing awareness of the undesirable environmental implications of cement-based products has accelerate to reconsider earth materials within a digitally based construction process.
Digital manufactured of earth-based material
A notable contrast in digital earth constructions between Europe and historically abundant regions
The sketch depicts a 2km linear form that embodies my design intentions, especially within the unique context of the Gobi Desert. It runs through the Jade Gate, an iconic entrance along the Silk Road.
A computational shell, designed to mirror the topography of the earthen Great Wall, serves as a technical and aesthetic support for a protective structure doubling as a retreat pavilion. Aligned with the Principles for the Conservation of Heritage Sites in China, the structure minimizes intrusion and preserves the original features.
while providing a visual
The design aims to minimize site impact while safeguarding heritage from wind erosion. A crucial construction difficulty is translating the discrete digital model into physical pieces by applying the form-finding approach. The Butterfly plugin was employed to analyze fluid dynamics generated between the protective structure and a part of the Han Great Wall. Thrust Network Analysis and the wind diagram produced by Butterfly could be the methods to identify a suitable compression-only form.
Fabrication Process
I have organised literature documenting the digital manufacturing of earthbased materials, categorizing it based on construction method and material (Sand/ Clay/Adobe/Cob/Rammed Earth). This collection proves beneficial for informing and enhancing my own design endeavors.
Three protection strategies were devised: linear, semi-enclosed, and latticed version.
Notably, the wind speed is lowest in the lattice form arranged parallel to the Han Great Wall, as depicted in the diagram. Additionally, its modular properties facilitate easier fabrication by local communities.
As demonstrated in the photos, tests were carried out to explore the possibility of optimizing the design according to various performance parameters. The project development began with research into climatic phenomena and material behavior. The modular 3D printing construction enables the creation of flexible and climate-resilient protective structures. In terms of energy efficiency, solar energy could be utilized to melt sand and power the printing machine during on-site assembly manufacturing.

TAO (Trace Architecture Office)
No.241-15 Caochangdi Art District, Chaoyang, Beijing. 100015 http://www.t-a-o.cn/
TAO (Trace Architecture Office), one of the most active and influential architectural firms in China’s contemporary architecture field, was founded by architect HUA Li in 2009 and is based in Beijing. Being critical of contemporary architecture as an obsession with fashionable forms in media-driven globalized consumerism, TAO visions architecture as an evolving organism, being an inseparable whole with its environment, rather than just a formal object. With most projects positioned in particular cultural and natural settings in China, TAO explores the essence of place; and makes architecture deeply rooted in its cultural and environmental context concerning local conditions. The sense of place, response to climate, efficient use of local resources, and site-responsive construction method, such issues are always explored in every TAO project responding to its specific situation.

Technical Design (Stage 4)
I have been focused on preparing the Facade Design Handbook for the concert hall and developing the project model.
Joining a larger-scale architectural project marked a significant milestone in my career. As I delved into the intricate details of complex architectural tectonics, I faced challenges that honed my skills.
Collaborating with diverse teams and experts enhanced my ability to communicate effectively, ensuring a harmonious fusion of design intent and structural functionality. This experience not only expanded my technical proficiency but also instilled a heightened sense of responsibility, recognizing the pivotal role of comprehensive detailing in the successful execution of ambitious architectural endeavors.
Drawing detailed sections demanded a deep understanding of the project’s intricacies, involving meticulous coordination between various elements. Participating in the material selection process while drawing the detailed wall sections was rewarding. I enjoyed comparing different sample panels under sunlight.
I am currently working on a physical model of the timber auditorium at a 1:30 scale, which allows for it to be worn on the head, adding an element of fun to the process.
This project is located in an urban village on a site originally occupied by two multi-storey residential buildings in close proximity to each other. The density of the surrounding buildings is extremely high and the public space is extremely compressed, creating a tight spatial scale. The current buildings and the surrounding ancillary structures block the traffic and sight lines on both sides, making it a difficult area to reach inwards from the outside. When the site changes its identity from private residence to public domain, it will become an important node connecting the surrounding public space. Our design aims to respond the changing spatial environment with a light and soft gesture. On the ground floor of the street, the building volume will be detached from the outer skin, retreating to give space to the city for pedestrians to pass through and peer into. In the gap between the building and the skin, a space that belongs to both the building and the street can exist. This kind of polysemous space is not only a contribution to the local urban space, but also an inheritance of the immediacy and diversity of the whole urban village.
Bureau of Public Works of Shenzhen Municipality Nanshan District
Nantou ancient city, Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, China
The In-between Pavilionproject was the first project since I joined TAO.
Creating models across different scales has been an enlightening journey, from concept to the final iteration.
In smaller-scale models, simplicity and efficiency were paramount, emphasizing quick iteration and testing. Transitioning to larger-scale models demanded a more robust and scalable architecture to handle increased complexity. The vibrant pink in sketch model aims to convey the feeling of Chinese urban villages.
The importance of clear communication and adaptability became evident, ensuring the model evolved to meet changing requirements.
The material selection in the physical model remains a critical factor. The 1:50 model was intended to compensate for the non-ideal appeal in the real world due to poor on-site construction techniques. When creating the 1:50 model, the choice of material for the building envelope was carefully considered. Finally, a light silver metal mesh was selected as it delivers a design intention, a soft and gentle gesture, that was not expressed in the real-world construction.
This journey deepened my technical skills, reinforced the importance of collaboration, and heightened my awareness of architectural dimensions. Navigating the intricacies of different scales equipped me with a holistic perspective on model development, from conceptualization to implementation, and the continual refinement essential to meet real-world demands.”
Creating a detailed wall section and integrating it into a model was a challenging yet rewarding experience. Precision was key as I translated architectural plans into a meticulous drawing, ensuring seamless connections between components. This process enriched my understanding of design integration, materials, and the crucial link between 2D representation and 3D realization.
