REORGANIZATION

Spring ‘16

Competition Project, instructed by Chen Lin

Love Hotel is a place to collectively express love freely. But in China, the love hotel industry is in an awkward position, as lovers in China normally don’t go to hotels to express love. Therefore I reprogrammed the love hotel with music festival. During the music festival, the young generation are allowed to freely express feelings and affections, and to sense the thrill brought by the surrounding music, while immersed in the stunning scenery of the West Lake.

At the former site of this architecture, there was a large Buddhist temple called Zhaoqing Temple. Reconstruction of Zhaoqing Temple is a opportunity to stimulate event in the local area as the old temple and old events is gone. Also, it will bring vigorous development to the city as the traditional religious place and public space for activities are regenerated.

We intend to rebuild this place to make the famous religious site and popular life area appear again. With these old pictures of the traditional and conventional temple and monks, we can have a knowledge of the space where they live and the responsibilities which they take. We consequently can rebuild the temple in the modern context while in conventional living pattern.

Apartment is the home to most urban residents. In the past few decades, many cities and areas all devote to provide citizens with basic residential place. However, apartments nowadays should be a sustainable and comfortable habitat for residents. Sin­gapore HDB which was established to develop public housing now make many areas in Singapore the same and cannot provide residents with enough public space. To develop City in A Garden, Singapore need to exploit new styles of residence.

Research Project

The establishment of gangsters’ community is to compete with gentrification in Boston. This new block is organized with three streamlines of different people. Various streamlines get integrated by gangs’ process & ritual process called Shao Wangchuan. In confront with the negative effect of gentrification [capitalists moving back to the city, causing an increase in housing prices, expelling the residents out of their original dwellings], gangsters will maintain a complete ordered community while being ex­tremely violent outside.
