Architecture

Reflection • not interesting enough • lack of language of design • how my work can provide a platform/

bridge to sense the nature? (5 senses) • how can my work connect to the nature? • what would be the special experience/

emotion response? (6 directions + center)

Reflection • by drawing pictures of different angles helps

me discover more about finishing line and perspective points.

• it helps me improve my drawing technique.

Concept Development

• computer chip boards

• •

different materials

Concept Development

Reflection • lack of design language • no entrance • no climax • how does it engage the nature?

The Theater

Reflection Concept

• start to have design language • the functions of The Theater engage the

nature - provide different experience of seeing the nature

Modeling Difficulty • not able to cut too many openings to

present where the glass is - will lose tension and cannot support the model

The Open Eyes

Open Eyes ApproachPurpose to create a welcoming, interesting entrance

be able to see more from inside

human body structure

• present an open posture to attract people to get in and explore more

• Slide : from 2/F to 1/F

Note • break the window into sections • the color of the nature would be

imprinted on the glass • shadow show / shadow

transformer / “Kage-e”

Purpose • to create a different perspective

of appreciating the nature

The Musician

• may go with white curtain • allow lights to form shadows

• sun light will flash in though the gaps

• will have multi lines of light flashing on the floor and wall

Contrast• Shadow VS Light

Reflection • use different ceiling to separate the inner space-

to create different sections of journey • doesn’t have to be a wall

Narrative walking along the path, you will see a glasshouse, it is like a giant warm house of humans. yet, you would not feel cold to be with glass, because the world of woods will be reflected on all the glass, the colors of the woods have been imprinted to you house. it’s like being melted in the woods.

The Climax

Reflection • remodel and focus on the 2/F • not firm enough -

paper card may not be a good choice of material to model structure with multi complex support points.

Narrative in a sunny day, walking into the woods, enjoying the joy of birds, the parties of insects, surrounded by greens. you will realize that how tiny you are. the power of nature is miraculous, gigantic, fabulous. it is a nature beauty, it gives birth to everything.

Narrative there are 2 open areas as entrances on the first floor, presenting a welcoming posture. it attracts people to get in and explore more. it’s a natural “4D” theater, it has all natural resources. during the day, everything in the woods would be reflected into the house, a new form of the motherland is performed in shadows.

Narrative trees are dancing, birds are flying, insects are singing. wind blows into the gaps, the friction creates sounds. the sound of wind makes you feel closer to the nature, and meanwhile it contains the mysterious of the woods. at the same time, the wind brings in the smell and taste. it refreshes your living, especially if you have a stressful work or a complicated harsh live in the city. People from inside will feel extremely relaxed and loving as the most beautiful world is all around them, isn’t it wonderful? isn’t it magical?

Narrative finally, you are lying on the bed, looking out the glass, enjoying the night of sea. the stars are telling you tons of stories, the moon claims you in sleep, you will be melted in the galaxy.

Vision It’s natural 4D theater. It has all natural resources. During the day, everything in the woods would be reflected into the house, a new form of the motherland is performed in shadows.

Sound The wind blows into the gaps the friction creates sounds, the sound of wind makes you feel closer to the nature, and meanwhile it contains the mysterious of the woods.
