VAST INFINITE DUPLICATING REPEATING HIERARCHICAL
instructed by Y.H. Chiu & H.K. ShihDep. of Architecture, NTUST, 2008
An interpretation of a chapter in FICCIONES. In the novel, the author used only sentences to give a spatial description of an imaginary system - the Library of Babel. The system is a mega-structure which is derived by a specific rule.
Here I introduced the concept of recursion to visualize the imaginary universe in my mind.
TYPE 1 : Point to Point
overlap: 0elev.
TYPE 2 : Line to Line
overlap: 1/4 widthelev.
This is the most STABLE module for developing a mega-structure of tower.
TYPE 3 : Face to Face
overlap: 3/4 widthelev.
...
To develop the overall system, I first tried several types of system with different rules of devirative by following the principle of RECURSION and then choose the most applicable one.
Each hexagon is a SPIRAL STAIRWAY.
The very basic elements is a HEXAGON.

Spiral Stairways
The principle of recursion & rotation makes the whole system consist of spiral stairsways and itself an infinite, giant spiral stairway.

Stably Derivative
In each level of groups, there always exists a coreas main structure, gives the units and the overall system a basis to attach and grow stably.
Though everyone follows the samerule of universe to exist, all of them have their own irreplaceable position. Everyone is unique.

A bridge nearby my home interested me. Its a footbrige for people and bikes go from offices/residential to a riverside park across a wide expressway.
Through observation, analysis, deconstruction and re-construction, I tried to do a siteless design to represent my site observation - a spatial experience which we go through, transform and even escape from a specific status to an opposite other.

Residing
With additional components such as steps, pipes, fences, windows and doors, the definition of usage gets clearer. Further, by assembling and adjusting the orientations of multiple boxes, the functions and services go further and more comprehensive.
ApplicationUsers can assemble the boxes based on their practical needs. Vertical and horizontal assembling are typical ways of arrangement.
In this case of application, I stacked 4 boxes and rotated the 2nd and the 4th by 180 to form a continuous verticle path. Then a main service core formed. (highlighted with yellow)
Furthermore, to assure privacy, I attached another stack which can be reached from each floor of the service core aside with mirror arrangement, as private rooms.

Exhibitors and crewImage of concept
With passion and longing for Architecture, I and my schoolmates established NTU Prospective Architecture Students Club in 2010 Summer. After a 1-year running, we decide to hold a con-ceptual exhibition as a milestone and declaration. The topic is about the original intention of Archi-tecture, and we had eight spatial or multi-media works in different scales to show the intentions of each exhibitor. Im the curator who was responsible for overall coordination, exhibition and visual design.
During the eight-week preparation, we had four times of minor reviews and two times of major reviews. We invited five teachers with different academic background of architecture as our instructors of reviewing.
NTUCE Student Space 2013Students Practice Project (under construction) Designer : NTUCE studentsInstructor : Prof. Herve CapartStructural consultant : EEC(me as assistant structural engineer/drawings engineer of EEC)
This project is a design & fabrication practice for students of NTU Civil Engineering.The object is a steel-structured loft with wooden floor-panels. The highlights of the overall design include the main steel frame, steel railings, a steel-plate desk and a stairway with cantilever steps and steel rods. The role of EEC is the advisor and reviewer who assure structural safety.
To make the drawings of advices more clearly for students and manufacturers, I used 3D graphics to help illustrating the system and details of materials and jointing.
