The client is Landscape Housing corporation in Korea(LH) which is governmental company and they held a international architecture competi-tion for Seoul Kangnam distict. De Architekten Cie participated this competition and won the competition. In korea there is a tipical korea’s way of apartment housing and this typology is always same.

Mostly this typology is invented and developed by LH. The reason is in korea we have had fast developement in 70s and 80s. that time korea didn’t much care about the quality and appre-ance of housing but they care about certain amount of housing that support as many people as they can. However, nowadays Korea has achived big development and became well being

country. Now people’s perspective is changing and LH wants to inroduce different typology to Korea. Cie suggested European block type ty-pology and it matchs with Korea’s mountunous landscape and created a special characteristic. I participated this project after competition but engaged in whole process of this project. The construction will start on december this year.

Kaohsiung Port CityUrban Planning

participation:designing iconic building through grasshoppermaking diagram andimages

We also acknowledge the strong need for economic feasibility and fl exibility in the design. Although this imagery and program-matic description contained within this proposal point to s specifi c organization within the site, we strongly believe that the ultimate character of the area can only be determined through lengthy consultation with both the municipal planning department, the Taiwan Railway Administration and local developers and investors. Throughout this proposal we have attempted to embed as much fl exibility in the phasing, development and programmatic distribution as possible. With this in mind we have endeavoured to create a usable urban design document which can serve as a plausible and valuable starting point for further development.

The central aim of this proposal is to transform the derelict site of the Kaohsiung Port Station from an urban barrier to an urban connector while preserving and highlighting the cultural heritage of the site’s previous function as a railyard and industrial zone. The main strategy to achieve this goal is to transform the bulk of the site into an urban park. This park, although open to all and containing many tourist func-tions, is primarily intended as a piece of urban infrastructure which services the residents of the surrounding area and the city at large. It is our fi rm belief that by creating a green heart which weaves the Hamasen and Yancheng districts together while preserving their individual identi-ties, we will add value to the entire area of the city. This will draw residents and tourists to the area thus contributing the economic growth and vitality of the city

. Objectives:Improve connectivity across the site for pedestrians and cyclists. By strengthening the connection between the Hamasen and Yancheng district we can transform two disparate parts of the city into a unifi ed area which has at its heart, a large urban park.A North-South connection will serve the twin functions of enabling citizens and residents to travel seamlessly between the waterfront and the Southern Gushan district to the North while also providing a more direct link between the waterfront and Shou moun-tain. Control vehicular traffi c across the site by restricting it to the Wufu, Gongyuan and Linhai roads (as stipulated in the competition brief). Promote pedestrian and cyclist accessibility across the site through park and landscape paths and connections. Although vehicular access from secondary roads end at the park edge, the pedestrian walkways continue to cross the site.

Linking Memories_pushkinsky theater

participation:concept developmentscript for facadepresentation

Russia, Moscow 39

As history fades from our memory through time, time infl uences our perception on many things every day. The presence of the Pushkinsky the-atre at the Pushkin square in Moscow we might call one of them. For this building was the fi rst cinema to open in Russia, and still remains as the ‘palace’ of the Moscow International Film Festivals, it is imaginable how important this 50years old cinema is. But time makes us forget the reputation of this building and replaces its existence with the thought ‘the building that has always been there’. With designing a new façade the goal is to create a new perception on the building, not to replace the old but to re-present it.

The skin is made out of vertical elements of steel covered by (White color Tedlar® fi lms) These elements will create a unifying neutral form. Behind the verticals, the old façade will be covered by (dupont Corian® Panel) .When a person walks by, he or she will experience a collaboration of the two façades, which represents respectively the past and the present. This collaboration will change as the person walks further. The verticals are placed in such a way that the surface behind will be covered or revealed, depending on the point of view. The movement and perspective of the person will change the surface and will make it to take its form to ‘become’ a façade for ‘that’ perspective and time.

By creating a zone of surfaces and giving it a non-resting state, we aim to create a new perception on the building. The building is non-hierarchical, non-central (neutral) and without a signifying system. It is neither a subject nor ob-ject in its natural form. It requires an encounter to ‘become’. This will make the person looking at the building to rethink their perception on the building. The building is no longer ‘the building that has always been there’, but ‘the building that was and is now, here, present’.

Time, Movement and Perception

It is neither object nor subject. It is not a signify-ing object which shows themselves. It’s just like a water. It’s visible but somehow it’s invisible. It’s not at the beginning or end. It’s always in the middle. It’s a continuous, self-vibrating region of intensities whose development avoids any orientation toward a culmination point or external end.

Blurring the Past

Particular memories about the city, place or architecture,those are always in our minds, but we can not remember or recollect those images all the time. Through the fi ltering device, it helps us to remember this place, this architec-ture.

It just works when it connect to something. In this case it connect to people’s memory and just when those two different opponent meets each other at certain deployment, It creates something else like our own memory, recollection which is related to this place and architecture .

42 PROFESSIONAL WORKS HSE(HAAGS STARTSTATION ERASMUSLIJN)

Haags StartstationErasmuslijn

RandstadRail Erasmus Line, the rapid light rail connection between Rotterdam and Den Haag Centraal. Currently Erasmus Line in track 11 and 12 of NS Station Den Haag Central stoped running. Due to increased demand for capacity-NS trains at Den Haag Central is the need for a new station starts to realize the Erasmus Line, so the tracks 11 and 12 can be returned to the spoorwegen.In the past several variants for the new start sta-tion investigated including a tunnel and a variant surface variation. These variants sticking several drawbacks, mainly logistical and technical costs aard.The most realistic option is a landing at plus two level, above the bus platform from Den Haag Centraal. The Hague Start Erasmus Line Station is situated in a complex urban context. It is located on the north side of the bus platform and over 7 meter above. It has the great height above ground level a strong infl uence on the perception of the space at the Square and the Anne van Bueren Bueren of Anna Street. It is also an extension to an existing station with a complex data structure and character. The strong urban axis of the Multi-level Bernhard viaduct is crossed, what a strong image-effect.The bridge construction on 14 meter above ground level versus the high rise and low rise medium in the adjacent area, crossing the train tracks 11 and 12 making a total to a very com-plex and sensitive situation and a challenging design task. The HSE and the bus station with transport terminal connected through a dry run canopy structure. The dry run extends to the Bernhard Viaduct. This creates an accented and comfort-able passage for pedestrians Bezuidenhout-West direction and Beatrixkwartier. On the other side cuts through the awning the facade of the terminal in the lobby and connects inside with outside. The canopy in the OV-terminal ends on the same line as the edge of the balcony bus platform.

“if the digitality of architecture can last a few years, it might be re-garded as a new tool; if more than 10 years, it might be considered as a new theory; if more than 30 years, it might be seen as a new age; if more than even hundred years, it might be defi ned as revolu-tion.”

The station is characterized as very broad, clear and bright. The fact that the column placement are dictated from the base of the existing station, are the two tracks of the Erasmus Line here 16 meter apart. This looks the width of 14 meter platform as luxurious and comfortable. The white polished pigmented concrete fl oor plat-form are made that both voids accommodate two fl ight stairs and a spatial relationship to explain the underlying bus stop trip. At the head of the platform is a sculptural shaped opening in the canopy with the climb point. Here lay a cluster of ascending and descending stairs and escala-tors and a lift connection to the bus platform. The access gates located on the platform so as to keep the bus platform protected from obstacles and risk of congestion. A third of the high-fl oor platform is enclosed by a transparent and airy space kapstructuur of steel and glass. The structure is called a ‘grid struc-ture’, the ‘two similar diamond-shaped structure, characterized by the absence of any form of hierarchy. There is no main beams and second-ary beams but rather a constant, regular structure by its sophisticated curved form is very slim proportion. This will improve the transparency, and so light and views, as well. From the station is up view of the surrounding high rise buildings around the station. The structure is completely or partially fi lled with safety. At the high end of the platform fl oor, outside the roof, is a small building with toilets and staff room with pantry, a telecom closet space and a work / storage space provided. The high-fl oor platform is via a ramp smoothly into the low-fl oor platform for disaster that is used by the Hague low fl oor equipment.

50 PROFESSIONAL WORKS THE IDEAL STADIUM

The Ideal Stadium

This project is fordevising an initial design toolfor the ideal stadium.

Few things are more annoying than somebody’s hair blocking sight during your favorite football game. To avoid this one has to calculate optimal visibility lines and the maximum viewing dis-tance on which the stadium design can be based.

The ideal visibility line of a spectator is ex-pressed in the so-called ‘c-value ‘: the higher the seat, the steeper the slope of the stands. If the section of a stadium would be a parabolic shape, all spectators would have the same maximum C-value (120 millimetres).

However, stands in stadiums usually have only one or two different angles which means specta-tors don’t have maximum visibility.

Another parameter in stadium-design is the maximum viewing distance which is 150 metres. The ideal stadium therefore has an oval shape with higher stands alongside the fi eld and lower stands in the corners. This coincides with the preferences of the public. Another advantage of the circular shape is the possibility of an ongoing wave through the stadium.

The stands have been raised of the ground as a result of which the stadium is accessible on all sides. Under the stands there is space for shops, toilets and other functions.

Above image shows gradient color that is result of calculation of C-value and this model shows the calculation graphically. It is a powerful fea-ture of grasshopper that is different from another parametric tool. The input parameters are mainly pitch’s size, number of rings, shape of the stadium, and number of seats.

Through the changing input parameter, you can see directly changes of color which shows calulation of C-value. Instead of all number data, grasshoppr shows graphical images and which is more indicatable. Because of the big size of stadium, complicated calculation and a lot of input parameters, it is needed to be very effi cient script. To realize this grasshopper defi nition, a lot of vb script is made and there is no uneffi cient procedure in this defi nition. You can check whole stadium’s initial calculation before acutual design through very fast way.

54 PROFESSIONAL WORKS G BRIDGE

GingelomBridge

BELGIUM 55

To experience the landscape from the road to en-hance the landscape is extended over the bridge.By continuing landscape is the spatial quality of the bridge.

The bridge in the Low Street has a very specifi c design. The design offers the possibility of smooth transition between landscape and the bridge.

The bridge is mainly composed ofprecast concrete beams with a deposited coating. In terms of abutments is a large degree of free-dom possible. For example, a standard bridge to the usual upland abutments are used.

The bins in tree design can be omitted or re-placed elsewhere by standard beams, allowing a greater lateral width is reached.

The stainless steel balustrades with fi lling forms and making a constant relationship between the new bridge felt.

The core of the bridge consists of 6 standard precast reinforced concrete U-beams. These are associated with long arms and a paid work in the deck. Above this central girders are the roadway, gutters and sidewalks.

On the outer sides of the two pavements are wider and deeper precast U-beams which trees are planted.

The bins are being paid to a concrete edge beam and form a basis for the torsional stiffness para-pet to confi rm.

The bridge is supported by the abutments and a V-shaped disc in the central work of the poured concrete.

what I did wasParametric Modeling of the bridge

56 PROFESSIONAL WORKS G BRIDGE

This bridge is a very simple project, but through the conventional way of 3dmodeling method, it would be really diffi cult to get the right form and shpe of the bridge. Firstly the one thing that should be sure is that the side surfaces of the bridge sould be single curved surface. Actually there are curved shape on the side parts of the bridge and to achieve this part as single curved surface the only way is using boolean tool through the cone surface, and this is also related to the arc shape of the beneath part of the bridge, and the inbetween inclination of the bridge. Therefore in this simple bridge, all parts of the bridge shapes are linked togeather. If one thing change, the other things also change. Grasshop-per is kind of “really intellegent way of model-ing method” I would say, otherwise you have to do all modeling again and again to achieve the right shape.

“all elements of the bridge shape are linked together, if one thing changes, the other things also change, then what’s the intelligent way of modeling this bridge?”

This new urban square is derived from traces of existing urban codes. Those codes are kind of immanence memory of this site. This memory is related to our present situation, because when we perceive something, actually our memory infl uence us how to perceive it. Perceiving is the present operation, but our memory that is the duration of our past infl uences, so the past memory is related to the present situation. In the procedure of concept development the ‘memory’ code is re-writed and re-adjusted, and addition-ally ‘wish’ code is added.. The ‘memory’ code is a kind of the existing code which comes from this site’s context but the ‘wish’ code is the thing that is suggested for future situation. Through the combination of those two codes the new urban square is suggested.

This square will be a totally different square but it will correspond with our memory so it will give a new effect of perception to the people. My aim is to make this site more dynamic and to integrate all the parts of architecture into a whole concept being developed together. The codes that are derived from existing context and from the future expectation give new architectural language for generating form. From this new kind of language, code, new geometry would comes out. This new geometry will combine all aspect of architectural quality (space, structure, aesthetic value and etc).


“Curvilinearity is a more sophisticated and complex form of organi-zation than linearity in two regards: (1) it integrates multiple rather than single entities, and (2) it is capable of expressing vectorial attri-butes, and therefore time and motion”

Mnemonic Membrane_HYPERBODY STUDIO,MASTER 3

This generated surface is the result of a ‘para-metrical logic’ development, to produce not only the upper-exterior plane of the surface but also the structure of it. Therefore, the geometry surface emerges through the parametrical logic by dividing, setting points, adding curves, adding vectors, and adding surfaces to the basic component; process which is programmed with the use of Rhino Scripting. The fi nal result of this parametrical progression, after test-ing and analyzing each step, is the population of the skin component and the space frame of the surface into a curvature. As it is specifi ed before, the three components are also populated in the emerged curvature according with sustainable concept. For that reason, each one of these modules are positioned as follows: LCC is located in the upper level of the curvature looking for the optimization of sun light inside the building; WCC on the lower level of the skin to catch gray water from the top and store it in tanks for later use, and EGC on the medium level to take advantage from the wa-ter fl ow and wind, then to transmit it as energy tothe membrane. Each one of all these components is going to get its particular and general purposes

by the opening and close of their internal pieces, again they are actuating like stomata.Light, Energy and Water are the elements producing movement into the three components; which are going to open and close according with the values-parameters of these factors. An optical moisture detector determines a value corresponding to ambient light conditions and compares that value with a predetermined value. The detector includes an optical moisture sensor and a processor. The optical moisture sensor can be a photo array, a CCD or a CMOS. The processor can be a microprocessor, which canemit a control signal to control the opening de-gree of the fl ap and closing or opening the water collector component. All of these components are powered by the battery supplied by the energy generator component. The materiality of this membrane is defi ned according with all the previous exposed requirements: Neoprene polychloroprene (synthetic rubber) for the skin, telescopic arms for the movement of the struc-ture, laminated double glass, hollow steel ‘bone’ structure, hollow steel ‘bone’ space framefi tted with utilities.

Link To TheCity_HYBRID BUILDING STUDIO,MASTER 1

This area is a complex urban site at the southern corner of the ancient city, there where the river Amstel turns into the Rokin street. This is a his-torically layered location with specifi c qualities between Kloveniersburgwal, Nieuwe Doel-enstraat, Oude Turfmarkt, and Grimburgwal. The most buildings in the area of the Bin-nengasthuis complex are actually used by the University of Amsterdam. Up till 1980 this was the location of the Amsterdam Academic Hospital to which the area owns its name of Binnengasthuis. In the Middle Ages this was the location of two cloisters with the related reli-gious complexes. After the ‘alteration’ in 1578, when protestants took the power in the city, all religious properties were turned into civic goals like orphanages, habitations for elderly people and hospitals. The former religious complexes of this area were therefore given to civic institu-tions and developed into hospitals. This was the fi rst step towards the Binnengasthuis hospital complex and the reason of the actual University occupancy.In its fi rst period after the alteration the area kept on developing according to the cloister model, as a series of courtyards connected by a network of alleys. It is from the XIX century that major changes occurred. A large part of the building were then demolished making room for ‘mod-ern’ hospital buildings conceived as architectural objects in an ‘open’ public space setting.

AMSTERDAM 87

Characteristic of the binnengasthuis area

There are many public spaces in this University, but actually this is not public space, because this area’s urban structure is very closed, so if people come into here, it could be very inconvenient place for them.There are three facts that make this area very close. These are the canal,massive building block, and inner building &courtyard structure.Because of these facts, this University has its own chracteristic and it haven’t communicated with the other parts of city as well.
