TEMPORAL HOUSE

该项目位于洛杉矶中国城。最初的概念源于对James Turrell装置的解读，我试图在建筑内构建一个再现空间，映射外部的真实世界。构成这个再现空间的元素来自外面的真实世界，即天空，地面和光。这三个元素在住宅内由楼板和窗这两个建筑元素再现。

天空和地面，作为定义最初空间感的两个元素，在住宅内通过楼板再现—不再依照天空地面的形状，而是被构建成相反的曲面，形成内部空间。窗户，作为存在于楼板之间的空隙，在建筑中是内外部空间之间的通道。通过这些空隙，外部世界的片段被重构，投射到内部。窗户在历史上一直被建筑师用于对外部空间的理想化重构。每一个特定建筑的窗户表达了一个关于理想现实的建筑构想。这个住宅中的窗户启发于此，引用历史上的多种窗户对外部世界进行多重重构。由此，构成外部空间的元素在住宅内被再现重构为住宅内部的空间，内部成为外部的映射和重构。

This project is located in Chinatown, Los Angeles. The very first concept is inspired by an interpretation on installations of James Turrell. I try to create a distorted representational world in this house. This fake world in the house is constructed by the elements from outside real world, which are the sky, the ground and the sunlight. These three elements are represented in the house by two architectural elements, floor and window.

The sky and ground, as fundamental elements of the human conception of space, are representedwithin the house as floors – not horizontal but distorted into curved platforms that create space within themselves . The windows, appearing as gaps between the curved floors, become portals to the exterior reality. Through the windows, the elements from the outside real world are introduced into the inside representational world. Each window frames a particular reality and reconstructs it. Windows have historically been used as a means of expressing the idea of the architect. The windows of a given piece building express an architectural vision of an ideal reality. Windows in this house are inspired by the windows from history. Together, these windows create a multiplicity of representations of the outside world. Thus the house promotes multiple relationships with its surroundings, linking space on the inside with the outside.

A SAFE ISLAND

这个集合住宅项目位于St. Louis，基地靠近著名的经典案例-Pruitt-Igoe项目，在两个不同种族社区之间。基地周围犯罪率高。在此项目中我试图避免这个负面因素的影响。因此，我将集合住宅的主要功能空间作为一个界限，形成两个不同的公共空间。在地面层的是一个完全开放，多用途的地面空间，周围居民都可以进入，同时也保证了往基地南侧公园的良好视线。而在最上层的半公共空间是提供给这个集合住宅的社区场所，只有住在这个社区的居民才能进入，可以作为一个只对社区开放的屋顶花园，为居民之间的社交活动提供安全的场所。

Pruitt-Igoe, an internationally infamous housing project in St. Louis, is located not far from the site of this project. Both projects face the same situations as their locations between black and white communities.Crimes happened around this site, and I try to avoid this negative influence. Therefore, I use the main program of the housing as a boundary to formulate two public spaces. One ground public space is totally open, there are commercials and people can see through the whole project to the big park in the south. This kind of transparency and openness would be an effective way to curb crime. the other upper public space is for the neighborhood, this space is only accessible for the neighborhood, only through the private unit can arrive there.This is the place all the neighborhood activities going to be happen.
