Producing Grounds: A Manual for Land-Grant Institutions Masters ThesisWinter 2013 Rania Ghosn | The University of Michigan
The thesis asks the question of how architecture operates actively not only on the surface of the land but expands three-dimensionally underneath and above the surface, and explores the relationship between the built spaces within the manipulated ground with the university as the protagonist. The project proposes a system where the ground and architecture transform each other actively, where architecture seeks opportunity to mold the land, and not just conforming to it. The built spaces are manipulated to house programs dedicated to the universitys concerns, but also aims to perform as spaces that engage the user with the environment.

Ciudad de Aire with Peter Halquist and Dahee Sim
Winter 2013 Heidi Bebee & Julia McMorrough | The University of Michigan
In this residential housing project, emphasis was placed on maximizing the openings for natural ventilation and lighting for each unit while maintaining the high-density requirement. Voids are carved out on the facade to create spaces for double height terraces, breaking the monotony of a flushed surface, giving unique character to the housing project.

Chicago River | ThinkBridge with Hannah Smith
Fall 2012 Rania Ghosn | The University of Michigan
ThinkBridge deploys a satellite campus that redefines how a university interacts with the city; and proposes a hands-on mode of learning by means of the river. The project appropriates the strong linear connection of rails running through the site into a core artery between UIC main campus and the business district on the east bank of the river. A cluster of buildings radiates from the bridge and interlink with a sequence of courtyards. Buildings along the river centrally locate and enable the objectification of the bridge at the center.

Museum of Food & Food Culture
Spring 2011 Yan Gao | The University of Hong Kong
The Museum of Food and Food Culture stands within central Hong Kong city as an moderate icon to bring food and agriculture to peoples horizon. The whole site and building together form the Urban Food Land and incorporates engaging roof gardens and planting strips in conjunction with the exhibition space and the research centre. This project hopes to evoke the caution of food and agricultural significance within central Hong Kong and to pave the pathway towards a tastier future.
Surrounded by glass and steel skyscrapers not unfamiliar to Hong Kong island, the little patch of roughly 20,000 sq. m. urban park sits in the middle of the bustling Hong Kong city, but remains unperturbed by the traffic and noises.
This created sense of serenity became one of the inspiration for the design concept: to transform the park into a site for an urban kitchen farm museum, one that let the visitors escape from the concrete jungle into a land of organic and green environment, one that invites its visitors back into the roots of nature.

Work scope: Model buildig + rendering
2011 The Oval Partnership | Hong Kong
Building on an existing heritage site requires extra consideration for the conservation of local fabric but at the same time infusing contemporary vibrancy to activate the environment. The juxtaposition between the old and the new offers new interpretation into a mixed-use development that integrates familiar cultural values and new lifestyles.
Daci Mixed-use DevelopmentChengdu, China

A metro station links this hub for retail and commercial activities to the rest of the city of Chengdu. The square above the metro station is conceived as the gateway towards different surrounding major commercial districts and office towers, therefore presents a design challenge to make the square public-friendly, walkable and welcoming.

The design explores how local cultural characteristics could be intergated into the design, creating a unique experience between the object as building form. With the change of scale, ones experience with the original object changes and alters ones perspectives as well as the spatial interaction with the subject and the built form.

Hudson River Bike & Footbridge
Spring 2010 Guy Nordenson | Princeton University
An architectural approach for a bridge design requires the same amount of sensitivity towards the surrounding, how the bridge will connect to the site context, who are the people who will benefit from the new link, and most imporantly, to and from where it will link.
A bridge affects the entrie city because it changes the traffic and circulation for the whole area. This is why careful consideration must be made when deciding on the alignment and functions of the bridge. A well thought-out addition of a bridge will be able to change the city, to add to the citys accessibility or to promote the citys liveliness by increasing the pace of traffic.

House Analysis | House Design
Spring 2009Peter Hasdell | The University of Hong Kong
Taking Adolf Loos Steiner House in Vienna, an analysis is carried out to understand the key concept of the house. Representational drawings are emphasized in this exercise to explore the different expressions of a simple concept and how they transform ones interpretation of the house.
-
Hand-drawn. Original on 34 x 44 paper.
-
Given the narrow slit of site within Central, Hong Kong, the conditions for the house design are challenging and at the same time, interesting and unique. The vibrant environment near the vicinity of the site provides an engaging atmosphere for the design process, and it is here design finds its own voice amidst the hustle and bustle of the city life.

Object Analysis | Cube Design
Spring 2009Peter Hasdell | The University of Hong Kong
Exploration into architectural studies starts from one single object. The chosen object is analysed through careful observation with some degree of reasonable speculation to arrive at the most accurate results possible, which is then presented via architectural drawings and physical modelling.
-
The cube, while not having a fixed dimension, is required to fit into an arbituary space measuring 300 x 300 x 300mm. It manifests the concept of interlocking pieces using its inheerent materiality to design the joints, the connections, the relationship between the void and solid, and the sections show clearly how the cuts segregate the unity of spaces, creating another realm of spatial interaction.
