Liivng space is always regular, it seems that

there is a rule that for living space to follow.

Indeed, square or retangle space is user

friendly. However, it is really boring of the

space. Therefore, I would like to use a special

operation concept to run this design. Trying to

design an interesting living spatial quality to the

living spaces in this project.

The original design is three layers, three floors. However, because the celling height is just reach 2 m height, it is too low for people stay inside. Therefore, convert three layers to two layers, the middle layer change to the floor of the upper layer. After decrease the layers from three to two, the celling height will be 3 m height. This height will be acceptable for people to live inside. But the outlook have a sharply change af-ter become two layers. From the view of the outlook, it looks like the middle floor cut the whole building at middle. There will not be the layers outlook. Therefore, I would like to keep the original three layers out look but make some changing inside. Three layers outlook, two layers inside.

Different spaces, different height

2.5m height is an acceptable heigh for human standing inside

X is NOT same as Y

ONE space, TWO height

CABIN

22

By using massing and envelop way to build up

a space. Acting others object to design may

create something interesting spatial quality.

For the design, I would like to strengthen the

connection between interior space and exterior

space. To let the people inside can feel more

about the environment around them. Not just

only a huge glass, is really connecting outside

fromm indoor.

Massing & Envelop is to transform or simplify, not just COPY

Form is about making, and leads to the exploration of the making of space

Stone Massing Envelop

From FORM Making

To SPACE Making

Toe process of produce MASSING models to represent the stones involves:

simulation, simplification of the complex form and justification with aesthetic sense

25

Form making through the manipulating of the envelop and through the making of the envelop, it makes Space

Cutting the foam ramdomly, and then combine them together with a new combination to develop an unique group of spaces. Then use those special spaces to design the mood that is based on that in-terest form of spaces. This make the design become more special and have more characteristic of the original reference object.

29

The design pay attention on the relationship between interi-or space and exterior space. Not only the light effect of the sunlight, is also how to let people to enjoy the outer environ-ment even stay inside the cabin. The cabin is using massing and envelop way to build up. Therefore, the shape of the design like the reference object, stone. The space inside is special, not regular, but interesting. As for the interection with outside. I have designed a moving celling at the up-per floor. When open the window, the people inside can sit down and look around outside, or they can climb up to the roof top of the cabin. Sitting or standing at a upper place to view and feel the environment around. This will strengthen the connection of in and out.

For Visting -

MUSEUM

31

The project space is a museum, the function of museum

is used for showing exhibits. Exhibits are the main char-

acters of this design need to reach. Therefore, exhibi-

tion area and the path is very important for the design. I

would like to use some tricks to strengthen the function

of exhibition. By using the curiosity of human beings.

Attracting vistors to see another exhibits while seeing

the thing in front of them. To get the interest of the sight

of the vistors for all the exhibits in the museum.

For Visiting - MUSEUM

32

The whole design use transparent materials to build up. One is glass, another is frosted glass. The space is a museum, this is used for showing exhibits. Exhibits are the main characters of this design need to reach. Therefore, exhibi-tion area and the path is very important for the design. I would like to use these two transparent materials to strengthen the function of exhibi-tion. By using the effect of view of transparent and non-transparent. Semipermeable will lead the vistor’s curiosity. Attracting vistors to see another exhibits while seeing the thing in front of them. It is because while people are watching the claer exhibit, the other exhibits at another other rooms will become the background with a blur view. This will get the interest of the sight of the vistors.

For Relaxing -

PARK

35

The is always a connection between park and green

plants. Green plants always give people a relaxing feel-

ing. In this just using plane and block to build up space

project, Instead of using green plant, I would like to

focus on the spatial quality to make the relaxing atmos-

phere in the design of this park.

For Relaxing - PARK

37

The design concept of this park is that, try to build up the relaxing atmosphere if abandon the most common element of a park, green plant. I tried to mainly use the natural elements rock and water to build up the park with a little bit transparent materials, glass. The outcome mood is a bit cool but interesting. Because the planes and blocks would not place very close, so that there will not let people feeling a great pressure. The space between the blocks are enough for people to have a small group garthering, This park woud really give people an special view for to feel a no grass park.

For Passing -

TRANSIT

39

This design project is mainly focus on the path. There-

fore, I have to think about how to give the maximum

experience to the visitors when they pass through this

short space,

For Passing - TRANSIT

43

The design concept of this transit is to let people feel a big different when passing this transit. Therefore, I deisgn one side of the opening is very high, wide and very bright. On the opposite side of the opening, It is very low, narrow and dark, the celling height is just about the height of an adult. Also, there is a curve inside the transit. This let people at the opposite opening can just see a little bit light from the other opening and cannot see the whole path of the transit. This keep the design a little bit mystery. And the path inside do not just going up or down. Even the people go inside from which opening, they will also go up and down to experience this transit.

For Experiencing -

LIGHT HOTEL

45

A place that is just for people to feel the natural

light. To let people to have a better environ-

ment to experience different types of natural

light, I would abandon the common building

shape of the hotel. I would pefer to create a

space that is more like a big installation art

space.

For Experiencing - Light Hotel

53

There is different types of room for people to experience different type of light. Direct sun-light, reflection of the light, non- direct sun-light, narrow space but strong light, light that is through many reflection, strong ligh, soft light, etc. Even it is a hotel, the space would not just build upward. The irregular placement of the room that create many public space for peo-ple to gathering. Because this light hotel is all use sunlight to light up. Therefore, most of the room would design very open to absorb more sunlight. The let the hotel more bright.

For Lighting -

NATURAL LIGHT

56

The inspiration is the element from the

natural. The design was developed from the

fusion of two natural elements: water and

wood. wWater is ever- changing and elu-

sive. However, wwwwwwOn the contary, the

characteristic of the wood is specific and

hard. This project tried to combine these

two elements together and placed them into

the design that table out meaning of natural

feeling and create magical effects of form

and light.

For Lighting - Natural Light

57

This project is a green project. The target is mainly using recycle materials to make the light. As for this target, I would like to design a light that can create some natural feeling to people when lighting up in the room. Therefore, I will use the natural elements like grass, water, tree, etc as the main ele-ment to design the light.

By using recycle materials with natural elements as theme to build up a light that can remind people that how beautiful of the natural are if they see this light or can feel some of the natural ele-ment with light up in their room.

The design is formed by different size of a smae irregular basic form. The basic form is develop from the shape of drop of water and the hard of wood. Combing these two elements and then come out a new form. Using many basic forms to form the light and also peform a great variety as well as the flow of the water. This make the light looks like more vaility.

Also, the light bulb of the design was chose to use LED light bulb. It is because the light can be more focus, to enhance the sense of hierarchy of the light. And the main point is, LED lamps offer a long service life and high energy efficiency. Therfore, it is more correspond with idea environmental pro-tection. Suitable with the name ‘ natural light’. More environmental protection.
