第五十七期为您奉上的是毕业于圣路易斯华盛顿大学的李毅韡。

A bosom friend afar brings distant land near. The Oversea album shares the lives of Chinese living abroad with all. The No.57 episode is about Yiwei Li, who graduated from Washington University in St. Louis.

为什么出国？
Why go abroad?

想看看外面的世界，看看别人都在忙什么。

I want to see what others are doing, to see what is happening in the world.

在国外遇到了什么让你印象最深刻的事情？
Is there anything happened impressed you the most abroad?

印象深刻的事情很多，印象最深刻的事情是很多国外同学对自己清晰的认识和自己生活认真的规划并实践。

There are many impressive things. To me, the most impressive thing is how clear my foreign classmate makes choices and how comprehensively they acknowledge themselves.

最想念祖国的什么？
What do you miss the most about China?

最想念祖国那种熟悉的杂糅温暖的气息，当然也想念祖国的好吃的。

What I miss most, is that warm and familiar feeling, which is complex and warm. I miss delicious food as well.

你会回国吗？为什么？
Will you come back? Why?

会。一方面，我希望回国在一种情感上舒适的环境里做一些自己喜欢的事情，另一方面，对于国内还是有许多无法割舍的牵挂。

Yes. On the one hand, I want to do something interesting in an emotionally comfortable environment, on the other hand, I still miss lots of things a lot.

出国后在不同的背景下再看中国是否看得更清晰，有哪些感触？
Is it more distinct to view China in a different environment after going abroad? Any thought?

我并不觉得出国后可以看得更清晰。你所看到的都只是你当下所处位置能够看到的，其实都是片面的。短时间内通过新的媒介可能暂时让你有了新的认识，但是各种不同的媒介也有自己的立场和态度，时间与空间的距离减少了你的参与感，长期来看更让你无法清晰地看中国。

Personally, I have not got a clear view about China. What you see is just what from your point, namely they are lopsided views. In short time, it seems you get a lot of new points from new medias which hold their position. But in the long run, lacking participating for time and distance will end up with an obscure view.

你的学校有哪些教育特点？
What are the educational characteristics of your school?

圣路易斯华盛顿大学的建筑学在设计学院内，你可以从艺术类专业汲取养分，在这里建筑学教学更偏向是传统扎实。最后一学期的毕业设计是以前一学期对圣路易斯的研究为基础，结合自己的兴趣发展而成的。在这里，我能够通过圣路易斯这样一个典型的城市，看到美国许多大城市的城市形态是如何受到产业转变的影响。

In Washington University in St. Louis, the architecture major is at Sam Fox School of Design and Visual Arts. You can learn a lot from other art majors. The architecture education here is solid and traditional. Your final project roots from your interest and one semester’s comprehensive research about Saint Louis local cultural and society condition. From here, you can get a clear understanding of the death and life of great American cities through Saint Louis this typical one.

最喜欢的艺术家（绘画音乐电影等广泛范围）是谁？给你创作带来了什么影响？
Who is your favorite artist (in wider range such as art, music, movie)? What is the influence?

我最喜欢的艺术家是Wes Anderson，他的作品中充满了极大的隐喻和信息量，电影通过浓艳的色彩，严谨的镜头表达了丰富而具有层次感的信息量。特别是在电影的细节当中，有着很多他自己的趣味彩蛋，在叙述故事的过程中给观看者许多不经意的惊喜。他让我很多明白什么是严谨的趣味表达。

My favorite artist is Wes Andeson. He always shows levels of racy metaphors and lots of information. His movies tell a comprehensive story through gaudy colors and thoughtful scenes. He hides lots of Easter eggs in details, giving watchers surprise. From he, I try to understand how to show a project logically and interesting at the same time.

觉得自己的作品集有哪些迷人的特质？
What amazing character do your works have?

相对于许多迷人的作品集，我的作品集很传统。我自己始终想让作品集严谨有趣一点，所以藏着很多自己看到会笑出来的彩蛋。

Compared with many attractive portfolios, mine is quite traditional. I have been working on doing my works logically and interesting at the same time, so I always hide some Easter eggs in my stories.

什么时候开始看谷德网的？欢迎你提出建议哦，谢谢。
When did you start to follow gooood? Any suggestions?

我看谷德是从出国之后开始的，特别喜欢谷德网站清晰的结构和多样性的内容。

I have been following gooood since I began to apply for graduate school. I like its clear structure and diverse contents.

美好的当下
Present Perfection

“值得高兴的时间永远都是当下。”

项目试图在老人，孩子和宠物之间建立一个交织覆盖的系统。为了创造这样一个内部三个功能紧密相连的活跃的系统，养老院，学前教育和宠物托管中心同其他具有社会属性的功能紧密联系在一起。这个多样性的居住系统让所有的使用者们都受益，并让他们不仅仅在物理层面联系在一起，在情感上也联系起来。不同功能在水平和垂直方向上相互交叉的系统，传统的线性严谨的结构被一种模糊了物理边界，加强了情感联系的项目取代。与此同时，为了创造更宜居的居住环境，自然光，景观也被充分的引入项目中。项目通过与社区功能紧密的联系，提供了一个平台来帮助孩子的成长和老年人对抗焦虑。

这个项目就像一艘承载欢乐，有趣，尴尬以及有意思时光的大船，这所有的时刻都如此的深沉而令人印象深刻。老年人的现在可能就是孩子的将来。对于老年人而言，他们有着人生的阅历，而孩子们就像一张白纸等待着书写自己的人生。交织在他们之间的就是当下，最美好的当下。

“There is only one time to be happy and that time is now.”

The project focuses on overlapping between elders, children and humane environment. In order to create an interlocked lively living system, three different functions are organized with other social interactive functions together. This multi-direction beneficial system enables elders, children and pets grow together with the physical and emotional connection. Different parts overlap vertically or horizontally via physical contact or emotional connection, traditional rigid grid senior living facility and pre-education school are replaced by a project which blurs physical, emotional boundary. At the same time, to develop a better living and working environment, landscape and nature light are introduced inside the project. The project also closely interacts with the community, providing a platform for community activities which are a necessary part of fighting against elders’ depression and growth of children.

Interesting, embarrassing, enjoyable, playful moments exist in the project, but they are profound and impressing. What is now for elders may be the future for children. For elders, they have experience, for children, they are like a white paper to write on. What overlaps between them, is present. Present Perfection.

在美国，年轻人成年之后往往搬到离家较远的地方追寻自己的生活，然而在亚洲大部分国家，年轻人在完成学业开始工作时候，更愿意搬回离家较近的地方。传统的养老院，更关注安全和管理，忽视了使用者的需求。已经有大量的研究证明，宠物和孩子能够大幅度减少养老院药物用量和死亡率。

Youths in American pretends to move out for freedom, while in must Asian countries, young generations move back after their study for a reunion. Traditional assisted living facilities pay more attention to security and regulation, but neglect users’ requirements. Lots of research have proven that pets and children can significantly reduce the use of drugs and death rates.

打破传统的对养老建筑的想法，模糊水平和垂直方向的边界，将城市功能和景观引入项目。

Project Collage. Breakdown traditional assisted living facility’s rigid layout, blurring vertical and horizontal boundaries, introducing social functions and landscape into the project.

通过对使用者不同的功能需求以及使用规律的研究，对生活规律的研究，来进行功能在水平和垂直方向上的布置，并加强公共空间同社区之间的联系。

Based on different users requirements and their daily schedules, the project tries to layout different functions on horizontal and vertical direction and strengths their relationships with community life.

不同功能在内部相互视觉上产生联系，在外部同周边的功能产生联系。群体活动室的老人们可以看得到孩子们和狗在多功能活动室玩耍。社区的居民在穿越室外坡道的时候可以看到孩子们在风雨操场玩耍。老人和孩子们可以看到他们的朋友徜徉在泳池里。老人也可以静静的看着在室内学习的孩子们。

Internally, Different functions visually connect with each other closely, externally relate with the community as well. Elders who sit in the group activity room can see children playing with dogs in the multifunctional hall. Community residents walking on outdoor ramps can see children playing in the indoor playground. Seniors and children in pre-education classrooms can see their friends in the swimming pool. Seniors in group activity rooms can see children in classrooms study and play on outdoor platforms.

环镜 – 圣路易斯康复中心
Mirror in Environment- rehabilitation in St. Louis

项目利用环境和温暖的社区环境来促进病人的康复过程。项目在不同的方向上同环境融合在一起，让病人们有更多的机会接触各具特点的环境。在内部，一种像家一样的氛围在整个项目里弥散开来，病人在康复的过程中感受到一种家的温暖。

Z字形的布局结合位于中部的廊桥形成四个风格迥异的庭院，并将环境引入到建筑内部，半围合水院，围合水庭院，和森林连接的半围合庭院，围合植物庭院。不同的空间特质与环境特点，让病人们能够自由的选择疗养的环境。

The project aims at maximizing the advantage of the environment and a warm community atmosphere to accelerate patients’ recovery process. The project responses to the surrounding environment on different levels, enabling patients to get closer at various environment features. Interiorly, community activities happen on different floors and various privacy levels. Patients are totally supported and well communicated during a recovery process.

The “Z” shape layout together with the bridge in the middle point create four courtyards with different features. They introduce landscape into the project. They are semi-enclosed water courtyard, enclosed courtyard, semi-enclosed forest courtyard, enclosed forest courtyard. Different spatial qualities and various environment features provide patients an optional recover condition.

“Z”形的连续界面和周围的环境在空间序列的转折点接触发生关系，这些空间的转折点也成为公共活动的发生点。所有的公共空间，不仅仅在水平方向上连接，在垂直方向上也视觉上相互连接，连接的公共空间系统给予项目一个家的氛围。

Z shape project’s continuous interface encounter with the environment at form’s folding points, where public activities happen.All public space are not only connected vertically but also visually connected vertically. In all, connecting public space system gives the project a family atmosphere.

北圣路易艺术活动中心
Arts in Old North St. Louis- Performing St. Louis

Mullanphy House 曾经是一个为了新来到圣路易斯的人们准备的临时住所，由于年久失修，条件已经十分恶劣。项目目的是以灵活而节省的方式让他重新焕发青春。为此，转变了大堂方向，给项目提供了一个朝向主干道的广场。同时在这个方向，提供了三个不同高度的平台，以此在视觉上连接不同功能和高度。欢闹的前广场和安静的后庭院满足了人们对艺术中心的不同需求。地面上以及空中的环岛在多个维度上加强了新旧部分的联系。

Mullanphy House previously is a temporary hotel for people new to St.Louis. It suffered from inadequate maintenance and severe weather. The project reactivates it in flexible and affordable ways. Relocating its entrance direction, it provides a larger foyer to main road direction. In this direction, the project provides multiple platforms on different levels, to enable visual connection between heights and functions. A lively front plaza and a quiet back courtyard satisfy different requirements. A loop on the ground floor and in the air, strengthen the connection between new and old.

项目从对当地艺术家的艺术作品分析开始，探讨了他们作品中所表现出的空间性和时间性。通过一系列模型，思考如何灵活多样的占有空间，并体现空间自身的层次感。

The project starts with analyzing about local artists’ works. Research is about the time and space showed in their works. Through series of models, thinking about how to occupy space with flexibility and hierarchy.

通过窗帘的开合形成的灵活的平台，两个方向形成了交叉的十字形的多样性平台，激活了入口空间。

Two crossing platforms create a lively theater through moving the curtain. This gesture activates the ground floor space.

砖和复合树脂板在原有建筑中形成了半透明的展览空间，层层叠叠的创造出新旧之间朦胧而温暖的关系。

New exhibition space is made of brick and polycarbonate boards, which create a warm and haziness atmosphere between new and old.

社区折叠平台
Unlimited Folding platforms for community

这个项目结合了赫尔辛基城市的庭院结构，城市对文化，教育和体育活动的需求。连续的空间序列满足了社区居民和游客的功能需求。底部的下沉式广场，中间的文化链接平台，顶部的酒廊是不同高度上的公共活动节点，他们根据社区性到半私密性在垂直方向上叠加。在这些空间序列之间的是体育，文化以及服务于周边社区的休闲娱乐功能。巨大的采光井组织了内部的空间活动，不仅仅将光引入项目内部，同时采光井上的大洞也创造了不同高度上视线上交流的可能性。

The project combines Helsinki’s courtyard spirit, cultural requirements, education, and sports. Its continuous spatial sequence satisfies requirements from community and tourists. Sunken city plaza, middle cultural platform, top entertainment deck are platforms for the public on different heights, with their levels from community to privacy. What beneath these nodes are sporting, cultural or entertainment space for the surrounding community. Light wells organize whole interior activities, introducing light inside. Holes on light wells provide visual communicate possibilities between different heights.

项目的起点是对于人在城市中生活的以及建筑又在当中可以扮演怎样的角色的思考。人在建筑中的活动就像一帧帧的影像定格在建筑的胶片中，建筑是人们生活的载体。不同的使用者在项目里的生活相互交织，在胶片上共同描绘他们日常的生活。

The project starts with thinking about architecture’s role in people’s daily city life. People’s activities are framed on the film of architecture. So, architecture becomes the carrier of daily life. Different users coexist on the film, drawing the schedule of their daily life.

项目的形式来源于柯布西耶无尽延伸博物馆原型的思考，无限延伸上升的螺旋形坡道，串联起城市丰富的文化生活，将公共空间覆盖在坡道之下，让动与静在坡道的上下两册展开。功能的排布基于不同功能的运营时间，不同的时间区段，从下到上，串联起一个由动至静的不间断的城市空间。

The form of the architecture is motivated by Le Corbusier’s project, unlimited museum. The unlimited extended Ziggurat ramp, linking different urban life together, covering the public activities beneath it. Lively and peacefully city life happens at the different sides of the ramp at the same time. The function layout base on each parts’ running schedules, from bottom to the top, forming a continuous transition from lively to quite urban life sequence.

穿越，老年住宅
House for Elderly, Traversed Living

项目位于Hillsboro东北角。项目作为周边环境和Hilsboro居民生活之间的媒介，鼓励人们走入大自然。建筑层叠展开，通过连续的坡道同环境连接了起来。人们可以从底层迅速的接近环境。这种层叠展开的建筑布局贯穿始终，同样也被用于居住空间的组织中。居住单元根据私密与公共堆叠组织。立面具有不同的透明度，让光也扮演着区隔空间的角色。

The project locates in Hillsboro’s northeast corner. The project is a mediator between surrounding environment and Hillsboro people’s daily life, encouraging people to go into the environment. The layered building connects to environment seamlessly by continuous ramps. People can approach landscape quickly on the ground floor when they traverse the building. The mediating layering idea is applied to the organizing of units. Layering units according to privacy and relationship with the environment. Facades vary in transparency, mediating between light and life.
