About
I’m Gemini (air sign), so curiosity is my nature. I’m also an introvert person, thus talking a lot with unknown people is not my habit, but I'm all ears for necessary thing. I’m bold sometimes, but I'm responsible for what I have said and done. Architect for me is a generalist, it’s more than designing space, it’s a narrative design which co-related with both visible and invisible context. And architecture will become the proof of the way we living and tendency.
Summer Pavilion
It was named 《Summer Pavilion》 because it will trend to use a lot in the summer and also according with our assignment that required both breathing wall and grey space. At the processing time collapsible shell blow our mind, therefore we decided to suppose the final form as a piece of shell. Breathing wall, is an installation created by Najla El Zein Workshop in 2014. Breathing wall is an interactive installation that takes the shape of a 3D wall surface made out of diamond shape modules. The original concept of the breathing wall was of internal air flowing out through the wall to reduce the concentration of indoor air pollution. Grey space, began to appear after the mid 1980, and student now use this term to indicate space under the gallery and transition space. The original of the word in China is very clear, from Japanese architect Kurokawa Kiso.

Based on the analysis of the site data, recognize the typical elements and scenes in the village, and clarify the elements that can be used as design prototypes through interpretation and comparison; design an activity center for the villagers in the selected site in Xijingyu, Xijingyu Village is based on Stone is the main feature, and the project should be closely related to this theme. In the process, the method of image collage is encouraged to integrate new elements into the existing atmosphere. The selection of the base should be in line with the concept and propose an activity center. The clear functional positioning of the project, with a total construction area of 500m2.
Architectural Library
This project aims to learn the relationship between architecture and environment, the generation mechanism and combination types of space and endure reasonable functional zoning. From the perspective of campus culture and environment, thus first of all we need to do site analysis. After understanding the site condition, then we can take profitable aspects to improve our concept. I choose the site where located next to the architectural department, because I find out in Tianjin University old campus already has an academic library, so I want to provide specific type for this library where can serve specific users. I design an “Architectural Library”.
