01 SHELTER

SHELTER

A bamboo-structure bird-watching tower

Location: Hanshou, Changde, Hunan, China

A bamboo-structure bird-watching tower by wetland

Type: Academic individual work, completed the design of building and structure

Location: Hanshou, Changde, Hunan, China

Time: June 2020, 6th semester

Time: June 2020, 6th semester

Covered area: 322m²

Covered area: 322m²

Through the lapse of time, man-made structures will decay and be abandoned by human, but as soon as it is being used by other lives, its use as a building remains.

By merging into the nature, a building can redefine itself after the erosion of time.

Built with nature material and local technique, the tower serves not only as a bird watching and resting spot, but also as a foundation for ecosystem to develop upon. Which remind people of the local history how Qingshan Lake was occupied by human, and later returned to the nature again.

By merging into nature, a building can redefine itself after the erosion of time. The tower is a bamboo-stone structure, built with original workmanship. Above the water, it serves people as an rest area, a pier, and a bird watching tower. Underwater, the porous stone cage structure promotes sedimentary and the development of eco-system. The Green-mountain Lake was once farmland, and was given back to nature. In the years, the nature- material structure will also be given back to nature.

HISTORY ANALYSIS

Exploit (1949-1995)

The area of Dongting Lake has been greatly reduced due to the intensive reclamation after the establishment of RPC.

Backfire (1954-1998)

As fewer lakes, flood storage capacity is reduced, floods in Yangtze river basin happened more frenquently, the 1998 catastrophic flood was a wake-up call.

Reflect (1998-2003)

Since 1998, the government has vigorously carried out the policy of returning farmland to lakes. Farmers lost their farmland and had to make a living by fishing, which damaged the wetland ecology.

Reconcile

(2003-now)

In 2003, with the efforts of WWF, the "community co-management" system was established in Qingshan Yuan. Tourism and scientific research activities became important economic sources for local residents, and the villagers actively protected the wetland ecology.

Return (future)

As the relationship between man and nature continues to ease, animals will gradually take over their own territory, and all man-made things will shed traces of human use and devote themselves to nature.

TECHNICAL DRAWINGS

After returning farmland to the lake, the dam beside qingshan Lake will be built as a runway along the lake, and the bird watching tower will provide a place for local residents and enthusiasts to relax and learn.

SECTION & DETAIL

Newly built

The installation made of bamboo and stone is placed into the lake bank as a spot for people to rest and observe nature.

The joint material start to fall, but plants grows on the structure at the same time and tie the structure together even stronger.

3.SKIN

The skin is made from textiled bamboo curtain, and supported by gridlike bamboo structure.

2.PLATFORM

The floor is made of bamboo tied in rows.

1.FOUNDATION & STRUCTURE

The foundation is textiled bamboo cage filled with stones for stability, and bamboo beams are inserted into the cage.

TRANSFORMER

Renovation of an old boiler house

Location: CUMT, Xuzhou, Jiangsu, China

Time: May-Jun. 2020, 6th semester

Building area: 3068m²

The abandoned boiler room will be transformed into a wastewater treatment and reuse research center. The treatment process of water is exposed in transparent containers, which became the main character of the space, and immers the whole building in the atmosphere of flowing water.

ACTIVATOR

Urban acupuncture of a historic district

Location: Xuzhou, Jiangsu, China

Time: Nov.-Dec. 2020, 7th semester

Site area:180,000m²

Under a complicated and dense urban circumstance, where one slight move could cause a series of reactions, this design advocates the idea of urban acupuncture, activate the area with minimn intervention by turning a variety of boundries into positive spaces, and link them together to form a 'web' of urban life.

MIXER

Civic activity center

Location: Xuzhou, Jiangsu, China

Time: Mar.-Jun. 2021, 8th semester

Site area:168,357m²

Building area: 251,496m²

Building density: 22.5%

The project aims to create a pedestrian friendly block to promote connection and interaction in the site. To achieve this, I used a wave-like texture to bridge the large density and height gap around the site, and generated a layered urban space to separate pedestrians and cars, it also enriches the landscape. The design of highrise and podium goes with the site design, the rooves of the podium become part of the layered city, and the border between levels is broken.

1.Set entrances and main axis according to surrounding traffic

2.Deside site function and building intensity according to oeripheral functional zones

3.Creat wave-like facade and site texture

4.Generate different layers and two main landscape axis, get 3 dimansion city

5.Input exercise track and build links

Timber construction waste reuse study

Based on the research of the timber reuse industry, the practise of documentation, classification and reassemble of the timber waste were carried out, the final result was shown as an exhibition. The study is brought further in my on-going master thesis.

Dementia Village Design

Location: Utby, Gothenburg, Sweden

Time: Sept.-Dec.2022

It's a research-based real task to design a dementia village for the Gothenburg government. The design priciple was generated based on large amount of literature study, case study, on-site investigation and interviews. The aim is to fill the gap of memory and rise the sense of secure by clear layout, home-like atmosphere and multipl social zone layers.

Building Energy Saving Technology Study

Time: Oct.2020

The course aimed to analyze physical environment and energy of buildings and use the result as a design guidance.I used Weather Tool for local weather data collecting; Ecotect for light and heat analysis; and Phoneics for wind flow analysis.
