REFLECTING SURFACE (PART OF THE HANGING LAMP)

STRAWBERRYSHRUB

The light-shaft is conceived as a negative-space sculpture within which a chandelier equipped with gyrating counter-balanced reflective surfaces hangs. The geometrical extents of this sculpture resulte from the application of the Golden Ratio upon the shaft's horizontal and vertical extents. The outline of the hanging chandelier is made by the intersection of the result of applying a phi(1.618) function to both horizontal and vertical extents. This results in a spiraling reminiscent of seashells.

FIBONACCI OPTION 2

The proposal labors on the power of illusion. The system consists of large glass panels that encapsulate opaque glass / acrylic louvers bent in certain places as to allow for a 3-D spherical optical illusion. From certain viewpoints our system allows for porosity, and from certain others it allows for privacy. Incoming natural light seeps into the apartments seamlessly, since the louvers are vertical in nature. In fact, the bends in the louvers bounce and redistribute natural light in ways that help with the illumination of the interior space. These louvers also cast simple yet beautiful shadow-patterns on the floor and walls.

One River, Two Sides

QIANSHAN RIVERFRONT

Zhuhai, Guangdong Province, PRC

2012. 10 - 2012. 12

The Qianshan River is known as the "Mother River" to the city of Zhuhai, a historically important trade route that now serves as one of the city's numerous water-oriented recreation and public spaces. The original project brief from the city of Zhuhai called for a simple redevelopment proposal for a stalled series of cafes, bars and aquatic recreation areas into something more publically oriented, with one of the main goals being a differentiation from the more nightlife-oriented development across the river. Instead of remaining confined to the existing artificial riverbank, a partial restoration, along with the construction of new island recreation zones creates an atmosphere completely different from any of Zhuhai's numerous and extensive waterfront public spaces. The creation of islands maximizes contact with the water, allowing people to interact with it far more directly than ever before. The site's location directly on the border of Macau results in an unique set of conditions and opportunities.

Site Plan

SITE PLAN DETAIL - NORTHERN ZONE SITE PLAN DETAIL - ISLAND ZONEThe northern zone of the site transitions from the existing, completed riverfront greenway to the proposed island zone to the south. It will contain a series of archiectural pavilions and landscape elements to define recreational areas.

The island zone opens the waterfront to the residential neighborhood to the east. It contains a series of recreational spaces and pavilions, including jogging, swimming, a marina for small boats, a dock for river cruises, ecological education pavilions and a variety of sports fields and courts.

SITE PLAN DETAIL - BORDER PARK ZONEPedestrian paths and bridges link the streets of Zhuhai with the streets of Macau. A ribbon-like bridge floats over the Qianshan river and weaves through the new border park.
