DESIGN CONCEPT_
SINGULARITY
“All is one, one is all”. Each element is a small and insignificant part of a
huge system, an architecture should be like a cosmos (architecture)
entirely made up of small and insignificant parts (human behaviors, nature
conditions, environmental conditions, cultures, arts, lifestyle, and faiths).

PROJECT ABSTRACT
This project is a film school in Pier 90, San Francis-
co, and the project is adjacent to the channel in the
harbor. The client is Sofia Coppola, who is a filmmaker
& cinematographer. Her goal is to make a new kind of
school that allows for open investigation and experi-
mentation with the media. The school should be seen
as a core to SF Bay Area events and lead into Cannes,
Sundance, Venice and all worldwide film festivals.
The design process uses the method of deconstruc-
tionism architecture. The first step is to collect the
inspiration from the movie Vertigo by Hitchcock, then,
analyzing some clips and movie ideas to manage the
inspiration. Clip Perspectives become the original
idea as a concept to design some conceptual models.
Second, the photomontage is a product of this pro-
cess to combine a sort of photo documentary cut,
sliced and extension of the site or something simply
seen and documented on the site such as the site
analysis, elements, and conceptual models. Third,
the photomontage provides space potentials and
architecture possibilities, which can transform into
architectural programs and a connection to the site.

PROJECT ABSTRACT
This project is a Modern Art Museum in Presidio, San Francisco. Forest
surrounds the site, and it is near a cliff forward to the Pacific. There is
no any building on the site, and the nearest building is 3 miles away. This
project uses typology methodology which is created by Rem Koolhaas.
First, I did research to analyze every type museum in history. Second, I
found the unique feature of each museum and analyzed their program or-
ganization. I focused on the museum circulation to analyze the transition
of circulation from classic museums to contemporary museums.
By using these research as inspiration, this project is to use an infinite
loop as the concept to become an art museum.

PROJECT ABSTRACT
The project examines two building typologies. The
goal is divided into multiple phases that lead to
structural and spatial development. The two projects
focus on the design of speculative buildings with
two distinct conditions (vertical and horizontal) at
two distinct sites (open and infill). The project ex-
plores the social and physical construct of urbaniza-
tion from a systems theory point of view. The project
pedagogy stresses a process driven design method-
ology. The goal focuses on the city as fluid urban ter-
ritories which are materialized by dynamic processes
and relationships that exhibit emergent properties.
The project is designed building infrastructures that
tectonically express innovative structures, material,
and spatial qualities. As part of the design process, I
develop building schemes that have interactive zones
of performance, circulation and information net-
works, and hybridized program scenarios. Analytical
diagramming becomes the generator for the design
outcome in all three projects. Spatial and structural
development are in response to multiple levels of
research discovered in the diagrams. The projects
question and are informed by the local context of the
sites, program specificity as well as larger global is-
sues which are discussed from assigned readings. The
project continuously questions, invent and invert the
relationship between landscape architecture, interior
architecture, and architecture design to create a
holistic environment. It is an opportunity to explore
the architecture projects as social infrastructure
implanted with flows of information which determine
new interface and shape public space inside and out.

METHODOLOGY
The project emphasizes a process driven design meth-
odology through individually developed rule-based
techniques. Generative processes are emphasized in
the development of two and three-dimensional
drawing and structure-making procedures. Focus is
placed on inventing strategies to transfer analysis
into tectonic visualizations that utilize structure,
pattern, and organization to create comprehensive
architectural buildings.
Within both project., there are a series of the key
may term assign order ned to clarify and narrow
down modes of analysis and operation. The project is
divided into specific objectives that describe the con-
ceptual framework and rules for model-making and
drawing. This includes clarifying the processes
of investigation, abstraction, and invention through
a range of procedures, materials, and techniques.
Design intent includes a shift from contents to pat-
terns, quantities to qualities, objects to relationships,
parts of the whole, composition to processes, hierar
chies to networks, measuring to mapping. The pro-
jects respond accordingly to the specific sites of the
investigation by introducing an architecture that is
reactive utilizing proposing to either/or/and integrate
into the context field, occupy the context field or
transform the context field.

BIOLOGICAL BEHAVIOR
ANALYSIS—SEA ANEMONES
Sea anemones have two ways of reproducing, sexual
and asexual reproduction. The asexual reproduction
is lateral fission, and it also called binary fission. The
asexual reproduction of sea anemones occurs in five
steps in cell mutation, being triggered, budding,
fission, fragmentation, and regeneration.

The first stage of a prokaryotic cell involves the movement
of the protein distributed in the interior of the cell. As
the proteins begin to move closer by waving and shaking
to the center of the cell.

The plasma membrane (shell of the cell) begins to
elongate into an oval shape, and the protein and DNA
replicate at the same time. This oval shape is the
second phase of mutation.

The third phase is when the plasma membrane begins
to split and leaves the protein in the center of the cell.
The DNA of the cell splits and pushes towards the outer
walls of the membrane creating a force.

There are a lot of women’s boutiques
but fewer men’s boutiques in this area.
This situation divides the targets into
two main groups (male and female).
The process shows the transition from
a large group (budding) to
two sub-groups (fission).
This area has a lot of advertising
billboard which triggers the shoppers
to notice the benefits of buying a
specific product. Then, they start
moving toward their targets (budding)
and separating from the main group
temporarily.
This is the entrance area and the main
intersection of the flow of people from
outside the mall and coming down
from the other floors. This intersection
is also the main circulation, which
leads the different group to their
targets (budding and fission), and
there are some advertisements which
influence customers(trigger).
The basement area is the dining area. The smells
trigger the customers’ sense of taste (trigger). Then,
they break into smaller groups in line in front of the
restaurant (fission). After eating, they join the
main group upstairs for shopping (regeneration).

The sub-flows continue to spread
out into the corridor. When the
sub-flows get to the stores, which
cater to a specific gender, some
of sub-flows change color to
either blue or red.
The main flow breaks into
more and more sub-flows in
the Westfield Mall. Then
they spread out to the first
dome of the Westfield Mall.
When the shopping flows interact
with the bio-elements (advertising
billboard, intersection, escalator,
and smell), it starts dividing into
several smaller sub-flows.
The shopping flow
merges from street
to the entrance of
the Westfield Mall.

PROJECT ABSTRACT
The project is located on the corner of the University of San Francisco.
There are a lot of residential surrounded to the site. The Site is on the
steep slope land with several 200’ height pine trees. The Community
Center includes community facility and Garden. It provides a function for
citizens to have activities and leisure. The entire project starts from a
series research of site environment. Then, the next research analyzes the
garden tools to understand how it makes and how it works. According to
the research information and inspirations, making a series of prototypes
test the idea and make it work to the site.

PROJECT ABSTRACT
Dogpatch is a historical and mixed-use area in San
Francisco. In the early period, it was a heavy industrial
area. Factories produce ropes, irons, and boat yard.
These products shipped to Mexico, Peru, China, and
Japan. In 1867, There was a residential development
for workers, but their living quality was not in good
condition. They spent a lot of time in the factory, and
they got the low salary for the living. Nowadays, the
Dogpatch is in a new transition in class and land use.
According to the city planning department, the water-
front area of the site will be developed to a park and
beach for wondering and kayaking. The project is
based on the structure feature to design a surfboard
& Bike workshop. My idea is to provide a perspective
which connects past and present for the new tran-
sition in Dogpatch. The research indicates factories
use a lot of moment-frame structure system in every
factory. Therefore, the structure type becomes a
strong element which can transform the neighboring
factories and residential to have the new shift in
application and design.

DESIGN PROCESS
The moment frame structure is created from the
structure grid, so the spans and spaces are symmetric
or equal. If there is a program gets into the moment
frame structure, the columns will appear in the program
space, and it is the same problem in traditional factory
type architecture. In this case, I use the program
dimensions as the primary factor for a structured grid;
then the programs manipulate an asymmetric matrix
and try to find the best composition to generate a
moment frame structure. The structure will automatic
contain the programs, and there will be no any
columns in the program spaces.

PROJECT ABSTRACT
California is currently experiencing an extreme weather condition, a
drought. Despite being surrounded by an ocean, this drought is causing
a water crisis in both urban and suburban areas of the Bay Area. San
Francisco has a large prosperous population of 758,000, which is demands
44 million gallons of water for daily use. Developing a new water re-
source is becoming an urgent issue for people’s survival. However, the
environmental conditions of the San Francisco Bay provide a rich resource
which has not been tapped yet into new water system for San Francisco.
“The Swell” provides a way to combine desalination facility with California
style as an artificial landscape in San Francisco. In the middle of 19th cen-
tury to early 20th century, a California lifestyle is a dream for many people

,and
the “Golden State” is an ideal resort destination. The
weather is sunny and dry in all year with easy access
to the ocean and mountains. The image of Californians
as: laid-back, healthy beach-goers holds some truth.
This thesis project proposes both a “Surfing Park” and
a desalination facility. This new hybrid architecture
encourages people to generate the fresh water
through surfing.
The Surfing Park is a combination of three parts: a
surfing pool, an artificial landscape, and a desalination
system. The water comes from the bay into the
surfing pool, and the pool water goes through to the
desalination process within the artificial landscape.
The fresh water becomes a water resource for the
irrigation of landscapes, human use, and public
green spaces within an artificial landscape (park)
at Pier #76 in San Francisco.

The Bay Area has 7.5 million people, and San Francisco has 852,469 people
in the city. The Swell provides three functions in the site, desalination
facility, park, surfing pool. The desalination facility provides technology
and education functions for laboratory technician and students. The
park provides public events and leisure activities for citizens, dog walkers,
exercisers. The surfing pool provides surfing for surfers and exercisers.

CONCEPT
DEVELOPMENT
“The Swell” activates and transforms abandoned indus-
trial land in San Francisco’s Mission Bay district into
an artificial landscape between the bay and the city’s
edge. This landscape includes a desalinated water
system, which will distribute clean water to the city of
San Francisco, a surf-themed water park, and a large
urban park. By working with the natural assets of the
site, this project responds to the current drought
crisis in California by taking back land previously con-
taminated by industrial use and returning it to the
city through the limited impact on the environment.
The drought in California has established the need for
a new water supply in San Francisco, ideally one that
doesn’t rely on intensive and harmful interventions to
the surrounding environment. Because of San Francis-
co’s proximity to the ocean, desalination, which uses
reverseosmosis technology to separate the minerals in
seawater and transform it into fresh water, is a possi-
ble solution. The fresh water created by the plant in
this project will be stored in two water tanks on the
site. These water tanks will supply fresh water to the
citizens of San Francisco.
The prevailing image of the California lifestyle includes
the Beach Boys, sun, and surfing, which is the most
popular sport on the California shoreline. “The Swell”
contributes to this lifestyle by including two surfing
pools that connect the Dogpatch waterfront area to the
city. The project’s artificial wave machines are set in 2
concrete piers, transforming the traditional function of
the piers into entertainment.
Besides, the park, which is the most important part of
the landscape, connects the local communities to the
waterfront area and the bay, while making the desali-
nation facility and surfing pools part of the
landscape. The pattern in the landscape follows the di-
rectionality of the site’s water systems. The horizontal
lines represent the seawater on the site, and the verti-
cal lines represent the direction the seawater takes as
it goes through the desalination process to the public.
The artificial water landscape has three types of line
relationships to the site: convergent & divergent lines,
vertical lines, and zigzag tangent lines. These lines,
that reflect the urban and natural context of the site,
provide a system of circulation. The main circulation
paths for people and water use two actions from the
water system: diverging and converging. Users coming
from the city converge at the approach of the site.
PROJECT 6
PAGE 1 74
PAGE 1 75

Then, the landscape makes these users diverge to the
waterfront area for surfing, the park for wandering,
the desalination area for education and work, and the
waterfront for entertainment. For the water circula-
tion, the surfing pools collect seawater from the canal
at the pumping station. Then, the desalination facility
converges the seawater, transforming it into fresh
water and diverging to be used in the landscape and
to supply the local communities.
The Swell provides an artificial water landscape to
connect the landscape park to the desalination
facility and the surfing pools in the bay. It activates
the heavy industrial land and returns it to public use,
and creating a new waterfront area for the people of
San Francisco. The Swell provides a geographic
landscape, water supply, and sports activities for
San Francisco.

PROJECT ABSTRACT
The project is to design a wall system of a fashion boutique in a three-
story building, and it has a flat roof and parapet and floor-to-floor height
of 11’-0” maximum. The wall will be the street facade of a small building
on a typical San Francisco mid-block lot, 25’ wide with adjacent buildings
left and right abutting the building. The facade includes; an entry door
with a canopy; windows, some or all being operable, some or all with solar
control; and at least two exterior finish materials. From the process of
this project can learn how to control every part of details. The wall section
and its related elevations, plans, and details provide a significant portion
of a completed description of a building. It is a process to prepare to
develop a high level of competence in the technical aspects of architectural
design through exploring a wall section.
