《初至松陽》
沈晦
羲之去會稽,便為會稽居。
與東土人氏,盡山水之娛。
我無逸俗韻,亦復居之俱。
朝弋林中禽,暮釣溪上魚。
勝游窮山海,埋光混里間。
聊為一日歡,不暇論所余。
西歸道路塞,南去交流疏。
惟此桃花源,四塞無他虞。
況復父老賢,挽留使者車。
便應尋支許,投老青山隅。

Deep Masses
THIS THESIS EXPLORES NEW IEDAS OF TYPOLOGY THAT PRODUCE AFFECTS OF DEPTH. BY EXAMINING HOW TYPOLO-GY AS A PART (AND ITS VARIEGATED MIXTURES) CAN BE COMBINED TO FORM NEW COMPLEX WHOLES THAT MEDIATE THE LOOSE FIT BETWEEN ENVELOPE, STRUCTURE AND INTERIOR. THE THESIS WILL BE TESTED THROUGH ARRAY/AG-GREGATE COMPOSITION USING A SPORTS COMPLEX TYPOLOGY AND MIXING SMALLER MODULES OF THAT TYPOLOGY.

DEEP MASSESImmersive Social Complex
Deep Masses Immersive Social Complex
by Ho Cheuk Yiu Hardy
This thesis explores new ideas of a typology that can cumulate atmospheric a�ects of ambigu-ous depths. The thesis aims to undertake a detailed examination of a sports complex typology as one part, hybridized with other smaller modules of the same typology as the other. The variegated mixtures are combined to form new complex wholes. These accreted masses mediate the loose �ts among the envelope, the structure and the interior, while defying the distinctions between surface and depth; solidity and plasticity; ephemerality and monumentality; or apparentness and obscurity. The thesis will be tested through an array of aggregate composition in massing con�guration.

DEEP MASSESImmersive Social Complex
Deep Masses Immersive Social Complex
by Ho Cheuk Yiu Hardy
This thesis explores new ideas of a typology that can cumulate atmospheric a�ects of ambigu-ous depths. The thesis aims to undertake a detailed examination of a sports complex typology as one part, hybridized with other smaller modules of the same typology as the other. The variegated mixtures are combined to form new complex wholes. These accreted masses mediate the loose �ts among the envelope, the structure and the interior, while defying the distinctions between surface and depth; solidity and plasticity; ephemerality and monumentality; or apparentness and obscurity. The thesis will be tested through an array of aggregate composition in massing con�guration.

DEEP MASSES: AN IMMERSIVE SOCIAL COMPLEX
CONCEPT
The thesis explores new ideas of a typology that can cumulate atmospheric affects of ambiguous depths. The thesis aims to undertake a detailed examination of a sports complex typology as one part, hybridized with other smaller modules of the same typology as the other. The variegated mixtures are combined to form new com-plex wholes. These accreted masses mediate the loose fits among the envelope, the structure and the interior, while defying the distinctions between surface and depth; solidity and plasticity; ephemerality and monumentality; or apparentness and obscurity. The thesis is tested through an array of aggregate compo-sition in a massing configuration.

BEIJING-HANGZHOU CRETAIVE VESSEL
CONCEPT
Phase 1: Reserach, mapping and interpreting A forensic exercise in finding evidence for a creative China.Deliverables: a comprehensive (meta) fatabase, built up by the entire team. The research of my interest is ‘Cretaivity throug Commer-cialization’, which consists of more than 30 case studies analyzed with an iterative feedback loop system. Phase 2: Operational shift - knowledge to proposition An exploration of integrated design tools and skills, to further substantiate this evidence, at a Strategist’s view.Deliverables: Meta-design of an imaginary office with the required skills as represented in a portfolio.
Phase 3: Output A radical extrapolation, projecting a 5D environment (events/graphics/space/time based content/digital media) on a large scale, including a mega exhibition, event program, environmental designs, publicity strategies, and webtools.Deliverables: a set of designs by sub-groups.
VALUE PROPOSITION
China is experiencing a quick economic growth which results in market saturation without catching up the pace of market maturation. The key to the problem is to establish and standardize the growth of an innovative market.An upgrade of China’s business model from manufactur-ing to creation, leading to an innovation-oriented China of prosperity through leveraging the country’s emerging Maker Community.
Three exemplary companies of the creative industry, col-laborated to propose Creative Vessels along the Grand Canal, namely, Seeed Studio, BYD and MAD.
The Grand Canal played important historical and cultural roles in the past, and continued to breed new businesses with the Creative Vessel, by linking talents, not limited to fresh graduates from the Northern and Eastern China. The Creative Vessel Pitchbook is made under the follow-ing structure: (1) Domestic Market Urgency; (2) Birth of Creative Vessel; (3) Offers from Cretaive Vessel; (4) Sce-narios on Cretaive Vessel; (5) Marketing Creative Vessel.

TEA Biennale中國松陽茶雙年展
One can smell tea everywhere in Songyang.1/3 of the population and 1/3 of the agricultural productivity in Songyang are supported by tea. It also has the largest green tea wholesale market in China, if not the world.
Because of the engagement of Songyang population1 with the tea industry, we consider tea as the only “lever” for Songyang.
Everyone knows Burgundy because of its wine rather than the forgone power that once extended beyond the Netherlands2. As such, it hints that the tea industry can also cast a significant impact to the territory.
The Tea Biennale is proposed as a holistic approach to provide an occasion attracting people to learn about Songyang through the rich cultural landscape of tea3.A healthy cycle would be driven by the feedback through active participation.
Urban economy is driven by something ethereal, i.e. capitalism. Rural culture is produced from the land, e.g. culture- agriculture, social structure, etc.
The biennale is no longer an envelope of traditional ideas in a contemporary manner, instead, an incubator4 for the rural context .
在松陽,人們何時何地都可以嗅到茶的氣味。
松陽1/3的人口和農業生產力皆來自茶業。它也有世界最大的綠茶葉批發市場。因為松陽人口在茶產業的參與,我們認為茶能夠成為松陽的“槓桿”。我們建議透過舉辦茶雙年展以提供一個全面的機會,吸引人們通過茶的豐富的人文景觀了解松陽。一個健康的循環將透過人們積極的參與和反饋來驅動。
城市經濟是由縹緲的東西-金錢推動,即資本主義; 農村文化則是從土地,如生產文化-農業,社會結構等組成。雙年展不單是以當代方式包裝傳統觀念,相反,它是以農村環境作為孵化器。
1.) During the harvesting seasons (Feb to Apr), there are over 160,000 tea pickers from different provinces moving to Songyang when the total popula-tion of Songyang is only 230,000.2.) The research was structured according to different scales from XS to XL.XS-Tea leaves; S-Organizations of tea business; M- Geographical conditions of tea growing; L- China’s tea trading; XL- Global tea industry3.)Preparation works before the biennale (2015-2020) include upgrading the quality standard of tea, more inputs to R&D sector, development of B&B hostels and construction of auxiliary amenities.4.) Incubator (noun in•cu•ba•tor \ˈiŋ-kyə-ˌbā-tər, ˈin-\)i. Medical: a piece of equipment in which very weak or sick babies are placed for special care and protection after their birth.ii. Business: an organization or place that helps in the development of new businesses.

SEARCHING FOR THE HISTORY OF FUTURE
MArch I Fall 2014 Design Studio | Eixample District, Barcelona, Spain
Advisor: Dietmar Eberle, Beisi Jia
Phase 1 Level 2: Hong Kong Structure Research & Design
- Nominated studio presenter for Public Forum: Mid-Semester Design Studio Symposium
View at the Eixample Block Corner

Long Elevation from the Street
RETHINKING THE EIXAMPLE BLOCK
CONCEPT
The studio is built on five basic issues of architecture: place, structure, shell, programme and materiality. They are examined individually in Phase I and together in Phase II - the final exercise unites all the thematic areas into a genuine project.
The sequences of the exercises reflects in turn the hierar-chical weighting of the themes, which derives from the dif-ferences in their useful lives and at the same time reveals an approach to architectural questions that is separate from the programme. It should be understood as a critique of modernism’s focus on the programme, juxtaposing it with an understanding of architecture which emphasizes a building’s useful life and status.This re-evaluation of the focus on programme in favor of useful life is the consequence of questions of sustainability and resource management which are always latent these days.
Observing and grappling with a single theme and in com-bination as a successive bringing together of themes leads step by astep to the ability to relate tasks and solve them at the same time.
The traditional linear sequence of analysis and design are abandoned in fovor of working in parallel. Thinking on several levels - and hence across many scales - is a central requirement of each exercise.
TYPOLOGY RESEARCH
Level 1: Massing Investigation of Philadelphia AthenaeumLevel 2: Structural Design in Kennedy Town, Hong KongLevel 3: Facade Design in Eixample District, BarcelonaLevel 4: Arts Center program proposal in Kennedy Town
A series of exercises is done to investigate different levels of 3 sites in the world reflected in the design proposal.
DESIGN PRODUCTION
The Eixample city block in Barcelona is rethought in terms of circulation, lightwell, balcony space & urban fabric.
The design aims at improving the provision for natural sunlight and ventilation in the reinvented facade; facilitat-ing communal interaction in the semi-public corridor; and providing public flaneur in the neighborhood.

Typical Layout Plan HAPTI (CITY) THROUGH THEATRICALIZATION OF VIEWS
CONCEPT
Chongqing presents a unique link between the mountains and the river by natural and artificial landscapes. Be it traditional hiking trails or modern highways for cars and metro, the modern Chongqing is visually dynamic and fragmented.
By providing the occupants specific and unique views between two distinct natural features, the mountain and the sea, a thin unit space is designed to interweave along the steep site along the river.
Programmatically, the haptic formal curvature and con-crete textures of the project dynamically strike conversa-tions between opposing views, far and near, dwelled by migratory workers from different communities.
FORM
The design aims to define a relationship between the planar and volumetric layout of structure and form within a scenic and sloped context. Structure is inspired by last se-mester, with curved or corrugated layout to provide extra strength for increased height, while the units are affected by the orientation and dimensions of the structure.
GROUND
A branched network that connects the different neighbor-hood, while the structure is anchored in the earth-retaining mass between. Features like stairs and platforms are provided for public leisure and connection of views.The divided ground also favors tall and slim volumes to avoid blockage of light and air to other towers.
INFRASTRUCTURE
The infrastructure is huge and high to allow sunlight to flood in and diffuse by the concrete walls and slabs, as well as cross ventilation for the wet and humid atmosphere.The form reflects the slope and height of mountains with interweaving paths, the curved floor slabs allow the gentle transition of area without affecting the light quality of another volume.

Final Concrete Prototype TILT-UP PROTOTYPE
CONCEPT The studio mostly focus on concrete as a (casting) material and investigate how various existing formwork procedures in the construction industry can be further experimented with and reformulate ideas for foundations, structure and spatial organization of a specific program.
A strategy for grounding will then be articulated as a first groundwork from which the emerging formworks system will perform. Direct intervention on its mass through physical operations such as excavation, foundation, earth retention and others. The main pursue of the design process is to challenge the banal yet efficient building skeleton by prioritizing the emergence of new spatial possibilities and inventive struc-tural performances, both as a working result of the casting procedure of the formwork system.
PROTOTYPE DESIGN
Earth-cast curved concrete slabs are tilted up to serve as shear walls for the 9-storey structure, which makes use of the slope context as a formwork construction site.
An analog model is set up to deal with the correct location and orientation of tilt-up slabs by identifying the Center of Gravity through natural form-finding and determination of optimal spots of slab casting and placement.
Strategic tilt-up and breaking of wavelengths from a modi-fied site with optimal structural feasibility is implemented through optimal number of waves and precise location of tilted up slabs.
Slabs are better be shorter and include least number of waves towards the top of slope. Corrugation occurs increasingly towards bottom of the slope, referencing to Eladio Dieste’s out-of-phase tectonics.
PROTOTYPE ASSEMBLY
Fabric prototyping is chosen where frames and surface treatment of the formwork is experimented. Carbon fiber is added to the concrete mixture to provide strong and subtle strength to prevent cracking and distor-tion.

The Endless Street: Shanghai Market-Library Complex SHANGHAI MARKET-LIBRARY
BRIEF
The objective of the studio is to learn about the importance of the urban context: to understand why some areas of the city look completely different from other areas; to examine the forces that produce these differences; to develop techniques for analysing and drawing the city; and to develop urban propositions that are critical and engage in a dialogue with an urban context. This dialogue willbe demonstrated through drawings of an urban scale that engage with issues such as: infrastructure and movement; public and private spaces; preservation and erasure; cul-ture and identity; natural topography and built form.The work is framed through thinking of the city as a dynamic entity that is in constant flux and formed through the complex interaction of political, economic, social and cultural forces. The intention is to understand why these cities look the way they do and explore design possibilities that offer solutions to specific contextual issues.
PHOTOGRAPHY MARKET STUDY
The photography market is analyzed and criticized by rethinking the circulation/program distribution. New organizational typologies can be derived from the small scale with a heuristic consciousness dervied from the object for sale, i.e. Focusing Power of camera lens.
THE ENDLESS STREET - PARADISE FOR HOMO LUDENS
The Endless Street provides an enclosure for urban neigh-bourhood interaction. Through the loop circulation without a dead end, the us-ers can experience a continuous flow and ambience. The urban strategy deals with a search for a loop with a whole circulation through all programs.Between different programs are transitional spaces with vegetation and open areas for recreation, leisure or read-ing.
The photography hub can be enhanced by increased views within the loop as well as interesting views towards voids in the neighbourhood.The structure provides cantilever for the spaces inside as well as a medium for growing vegetation which facilitates the air ventilation and nice scent.

Agglomerated Habitat Perspective & Scenarios KWUN TONG URBAN RENEWAL
CONCEPT
Hong Kong’s Urban Renewal Authority is undertaking the complete re-development of Kwun Tong Town Centre. The project involves relocating 1600 households with an estimated population of around 5000 people and displac-ing about 500 shops and hawker stalls. The existing buildings, built in the 1960’s have been des-ignated for demolition due to their dilapidated condition. The planning for the area has been in progress since 1968 and a schematic master-plan was produced for public consultation in 2007. The aim of the design studio is to look at alternative strate-gies for the town centre project. First question is what constitutes an urban centre and the role and function a district town centre such as Kwun Tong may provide for the local and wider community.
Issues include a consideration of: political development pressures, the centre vs the periphery, old vs new, infra-structural nodes, publicity & privacy; temporality.
SPATIAL CITY ANALYSIS
Yona Friedman’s Spatial City is analyzed to reveal the potential to evolve and adapt to different urban forces over a period of time. This inspired the urban model as a gameboard to test strategies over time with the intention to create an action plan of phased development.
KWUN TONG AGGLOMERATED HABITAT
The Agglomerated Habitat, with its new design typolo-gies, and large open frames on the ground and on upper levels, can sustain by a rapid transformation of programs and installation of urban instruments.
The ‘islands’ are determined by the current circulation hierarchy, which will obviously change its configuration of solid and void within it over time. New residential towers can find space in voids to grow;new exhibitions in the Cultural District can manipulate the open terraces easily; the two bazaars can orient to agglom-erastion nodes and adapt to the changing environment and human flow conveniently; the green spaces remain unaffected and continue to find voids between buildings to create new courtyards.

Void-frame Moments RETHINKING BRISE-SOLEIL
CONCEPT
The House is the most fundamental of architectural pro-grams. It is at the core of what it means to dwell. Through the analysis of a modernist house designed between 1910 and 1960, the relationship between program, structure, space and context will be explored. Issue of scale and emphasis on the relationship between architectural ideas existing at different scales, from the body, to architecture, ato the city are investigated.
VILLA SHODHAN ANALYSIS
Brise Soleil, as well as the sectional openings in Villa Shodhan, act as apertures for light as well as frames for daily activities. The gradual expansion and contraction of sectional openings reveal an invigorating lifestyle and programs. Interlocking spaces of main programs slowly reveals ac-cording to the imaginary daily schedule of client, starting from reception to the roof terrace. The sectional study model is made according to the explosion of layers with section cuts at column rows and midway between them. The revealation of sectional spaces follow the circulation in the previous stages, in turn showing the changing layers of transparence in Rowe/Slutzky’s writings.
LEARNING FROM VILLA SHODHAN
Study model 1: The model is organized by layers of program in relation to the circulation and light penetration. Interlocking of volumes connecting from facade to rear, and from ground to the sky.
Study model 2: Stitching of two designed facades accord-ing to height, program hierarchy, and light penetration. All of these are considered with the sculptural and struc-tural exprerssion.
Study Model 3: Improving the circulation path by adding walls and slabs and achieve an interesting experience of interior and exterior.
Final Model: Walls and slabs are modified based on model 3 to give an overall expression responding to different issues investigated from the building analysis.

Prototype Side 2Prototype Side 1 FROM BODY TO CLOTHING
CONCEPT
Through the inhabitation of the body, architecture is made relevant. Therefore we use our own bodies to engage ideas about architecture at a number of scales. The studio considers objects which negotiate between the body and the environment. A surface which clothes the body and functions as an interface to climate and weather is designed and constructed. The notion of shelter is perhaps the originating idea of architecture. Forces of climate and weather is what give rise to architecture in terms of being the shelter or the origi-nating idea of architecture.
BODY MAPPING
The photographic works of Muybridge and Marey illustrate space through a sequence of two-dimensional im-ages. How does one represent space, which is inherently three-dimensional in two-dimensional form?
Elastic bands are strapped around our bodies to resemble deformation due to antagonistic force pairs. Gridded sketches resemble the connections and planes generated between two bodies. Our skin is a dynamic landscape that is completely three-dimensional. it has no defined limit as the surface wraps and revolves around our bodies. The connections create planes that evolve to create a continuous solid.
MAPPING PROTOTYPE
Clothing, like architetcure, is a way to mediate external conditions and forces from the outside. Clothing has structure, shape and openings; tailored to fit a three-dimensional body allowing for movement of a body. Layering, folding, pleating, wrapping and padding all create spaces between the body and clothes. Space, void, openings, twisting of form contribute to a clothing object which reflects numerous possibilities.
