EXPERIMENT 3 FINAL SUBMISSION


MASHUP


Comfort in architecture is given by two words. One is "space." The other is "light." Space must be well-designed for its function and can be comparatively larger in some extent. For example, narrow or small spaces are not as good for a modern library, it must be versatile yet appropriate for its main use. Good designs in space are where it is not dictated to the individual how they should perceive, operate or feel in the building, but have the flexibility to explore and experience it for themselves. Natural light should be made good use of in architecture. Less light, spaces where you don't see the sky, not as good. Visible light plays a very important role in human's life. It also helps to stimulate the body's production of the neurotransmitter serotonin, which can reduce the symptoms of depression.” Light certainly has a physiological impact on people.These are the two keys to the future. I am always searching for more light and space. Architects need to deliver hope and optimism. It is part of our duty.

DESIGN CONCEPT

Section of the building is based on Zaha Hadid's Riverside Museum plan. At the beginning I wanted to build a symmetrical section for the school. However, after tested for many times, I change my section to a more abstract one.

The shape is based on Zaha Hadid's Riverside Museum plan. However, it is changed a lot.
The facade of the building is built of triangular glass,wood & steel structure. Indented arrangement could help to shape the shadow of the building.
