Walk This Way

Vincent Yuan

Thesis Advisor: Anna Neimark

项目介绍：在加州Rosemead郊区有一个大型停车场。从上空看，这块领地被遗弃了，与主干道隔绝，尘土飞扬，空空如也。在地面上，热人行道的气味飘过邻近的房屋。位于第一批郊区唐人街中的一个，这里属于克孜人，有着丰富的历史：先是西班牙殖民时期，接着是美国西线的扩张，最近是20世纪郊区扩张的爆发。这些历史都隐藏在地温热的人行道下，这个项目，同时也为加利福尼亚Rosemead的另一个社区中心连接了同一理解方式。

该作品认为社区是一系列的关系，不能被一个建筑或项目所包含。它是集合部分聚集在一起并共享一个共同点。在今天看来只是一个普通的郊区停车场的地方，提出一个社区中心的建议，是在重新考虑我们建设社区的方式。它的目的是关心和安慰共同生活的身体。通过对不同风格和许多场地的建筑的关注，通过加入拼贴的接缝和身体的交集，我们破坏了融入这个国家的过程和需求。

这是一个集体行动的场所，而不是美国化。这里是市政厅，是家庭聚餐的聚会场所，还有一个可以浮在水面上的游泳池。

There is this large parking lot in the suburb of Rosemead, California. From the air, the lot sits abandoned, sealed off from the main road, dusty and empty. On the ground, the smell of hot pavement wafts over the neighboring homes. Situated in one of the first suburban Chinatowns, this site belongs to the Kizh people and is layered with histories of extraction: first the Spanish colonial missions, followed by the American expansion of the western front, and most recently the 20th century explosion of suburban sprawl. These histories all sit underneath the warm pavement of the lot. This project patches together an understanding for another community centre in Rosemead, California.

“Walk This Way” argues that community is a series of relationships that cannot be contained by a building or program. It is the collection parts that come together and share a common ground. To propose a community centre in what seemingly is today a generic suburban parking lot is to re-consider the ways we can build community. This thesis aims to care and comfort the bodies which share the same ground. Through this care in building with different styles and many grounds, through embracing its seams of the collage and the intersectionalities of its bodies, we destabilize the process and the need to assimilate into this country. It is a site for collective action not americanization. It is a town hall, a gathering place for a family potluck, and a pool to float in.

Phygital Supermarket

Phygital = 物质 (Physical) × 数字 (Digital)

《Phygital 超市世界》是“超市”三部曲的第三部

项目介绍：通过以有趣和意想不到的方式融合数字技术和实物，Phygital超市探索了交互式建筑形式的可能性，并试图挑战日常物品的可读性和表达形式。

在贯穿整个项目的表达中，数字和物理的融合发生在几何层面，材质纹理层面，建筑层面以及影片拍摄手法层面。一个物体可以在保留仿佛可触摸的实体的感觉前提下，基于软件和数字技术背后的深层逻辑，具有动态变化的形式并且成为现实的一部分。这个项目重新组合了从“超市“中收集的同一套物体模型资产，然后以不同的方式表达并且赋予其不同的意义，最终创造了围绕着“超市”生态的五个风格迥异的世界——小吃店，农场，仓库，食品商店和咖啡馆。

《Phygital 超市世界》去熟悉化了我们与日常用品之间的关系，并以新颖的方式解离了物体本来是什么和它看起来怎么样。

Phygital Supermarket Worlds is an experimental art film designed and directed by Xin Liu and Yuting Zhu. It’s the third episode of the Phygital Supermarket Trilogy.

By merging digital techniques and physical objects in playful and unexpected ways, Phygital Supermarket explores the possibilities of interactive architectural form and challenges the legibility and representation of everyday objects.The convergence of digital and physical occurs in both geometrical and textural levels, as well as, in the architectural levels, and cinematic levels throughout the representation of the project. An object is able to be digitally "animated" while keeping the illusion of tactility. The same kit of object assets taken from the supermarket are re-combined, re-represented, and reinterpreted in different ways to compose five distinct worlds — Snack Bar, Farm, Warehouse, Food Store, and Cafe — around the supermarket ecology.

Phygital Supermarket Worlds defamiliarizes our relationship with everyday stuff and disintegrates objects and their representation in novel ways.

The Z Object

kumaran Parthiban

Thesis Advisor: Elena Manferdini

项目介绍：滑动，标签，向前，滚动; 无限，公开的，未经审查的。这些定义的行为和动作是通过互联网,社交媒体,和技术进步时代的Z一代尤其是大流行,每个人都被迫像Z一代,连接在任何时候通过各种数字平台的范围内,同时保持我们国内空间。此外，我们所说的“家”不再仅仅是家庭生活的象征，而是工作、玩耍、互动和创造的象征。

家是一种类型，在其中我们有隐私，亲密，是一个人的主题的象征。它现在包含了我们的整个生活。

作为居住者身份的表面象征的外部不再是可见的，而是内部。该作品将“居家生活”作为一种远离物理世界的乐观态度，通过Z对象的创造，通过虚拟现实的手势媒介，在我们的家庭空间内创造一个扩展的数字结构。

“Z物件”是一个人拥有的数字资产，是针对每个人或一组人进行个性化和定制的。这是通过从我们的2D触摸屏转移到更人性化的三维虚拟现实空间而实现的。在这里，我们可以更好地通过物质材料以及来自我们的物理和数字世界的物体来表现我们自己，它们共同构成了Z对象的架构。在这个空间里，我们可以通过简单的手势，如移动、旋转、缩放和3D画笔，轻松地改变我们的环境，以更好地适应我们的及时需求。能够拥有多重身份，更好地代表我们自己和我们所占据的空间。在这种状态下，建筑能够适应我们当代世界迅速变化的时代精神。

Swipe, tag, like, forward, scroll; infinity, public and unvetted. These are the defining behaviors and gestures that are enabled by the internet, social media, and technological advancements in the age of Gen Z. Especially with the pandemic in place, everyone is forced to behave like the Z generation, connected at all times through the various digital platforms while remaining within the confines of our domestic spaces. Additionally, what we call “Home” is no longer emblematic of solely domesticity, but also of work, play, interaction, and creation. The home was the typology in which we had privacy, intimacy, and was emblematic of one’s subject. It now encompasses the entirety of our lives. The exterior which was the superficial symbol of the inhabitant's identity is no longer what is visible, rather the interior is.

This thesis takes “life at home” as an optimistic departure from the physical world to create an extended digital construct within the walls of our domestic spaces through the gestural medium of virtual reality by the creation of The Z Objects.

The Z Objects are digital assets that one owns, which is personalized and customized to each individual or group of people. This is made possible by moving away from our 2D touch screen to a more humane three-dimensional gestural space of virtual reality. Where we can better represent ourselves through phygital materials and both objects from our physical and digital worlds which together form the architecture of The Z Object. Within this space, we can easily change our surroundings to better suit our timely needs with simple gestures like move, rotate, scale, and a 3D paintbrush. Being able to take on multiple identities that better represent ourselves and the spaces we occupy. In this state, the architecture is able to adapt to the rapidly changing zeitgeist of our contemporary world.

Alienation

Lawrence Yuan

Thesis Advisor: Casey Rehm

Video Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3jP7ZX6ZGs&t=8s&ab_channel=Lawrence_Yuan

项目介绍：如今，我们的身体和社会行为被数字化渗透，我们被抽象成数字平台上的数据集群，参与社会、经济和政治活动。当大数据和云计算成为主导规则时，我们对数字环境的控制力和知识就被削弱了。这种“数字异化”是不平等的权力结构的产物，这种不平等的权力结构故意否认使用者的控制，这种操纵符合马克思对异化的定义，即一种与个人作对的疏远的权力系统。因此，该设计提出了利用未知的大数字空间中的数据，将价值传递回用户的替代解决方案，以应对非控制和非所有权的客观条件。建立一个工具，让建筑师和设计师能够直观地浏览数字内容，利用网络和社交媒体上建筑设计的贡献所构成的神经网络的潜在空间，操纵疏离劳动的输出，以达到他们的设计意图。

Today, our bodies and social behaviors are penetrated by numbers, we are abstracted into data clusters on digital platforms to participate in social, economic, and political activities. When big data and cloud computing become the dominant rules, our control and knowledge over the digital environment are undermined. This “digital alienation” is the product of unequal power structures that intentionally deny users control, and this manipulation fits Marx’s definition of alienation as an estranged power system working against individuals.

Thus this thesis proposes an alternative solution that passes the value back to users, by leveraging the data in the unknowably large digital space, in order to respond against the objective conditions of non-control and non-ownership.Also, establishing a tool that allows architects and designers to intuitively navigate digital contents and utilize the latent space of neural networks, which is composed of the contributions of architectural designs from the internet and social media, to manipulate the outputs of alienated labor towards their design intentions.

Emotional Garden World

Yifan Wang

Thesis Advisor: Casey Rehm

Video Link: https://b23.tv/YOkCoU

项目介绍：本作品是对虚拟空间园林学科项目的美学实践。试图定义新的混合的自然和合成景观包含在其现有的植物群和奇异的生物合成。该作品所创造的植物群落不是由人类的审美偏好(传统的人文园林)演变而来，而是由一种新代码的内在逻辑演变而来，以新的思维取代人类的审美选择过程。

在游戏一开始，你可以看到最基本的花园场景，它代表了正常的内心情绪，也可以帮助你更好的冥想。

漫步于此，你将探索通往其他情感世界的门户。通过对生物体、生物等自然元素的扫描和三维建模，设计者使用各种编程语言创建了一系列的几何语言、空间结构、机制原理、过程路径。然后，我们可以探索他们与我们的情感表达之间的联系。这些东西被用作组成层次和设计的工具库。

这个项目试图创造一种新的社交游戏模式，让玩家可以体验这个反映不同情感分类的虚拟花园世界。这些世界由重塑对象组成，如主要的植物、岩石、景观、边界等等。通过对情感作品的研究，几种身临其境的体验在不同表达的世界中不断变化和发挥。盛开的水晶，欢快的动态环境，营造出惊喜的世界。你可以看到星云围绕着圆顶。爬上透明的球体电梯，或走进水晶的深处，享受轻松的氛围和灵性的感觉。在恐惧的世界里，恶心的生物充斥着整个恐怖的场景。奇形怪状的岩石和植物加深了场景的复杂性。如何快速找到门户? 我在想尼采的名言，“如果你凝视深渊，深渊也在凝视你。当你处于愤怒的世界，一切都变得非常夸张和咄咄逼人。”你可以在开始位置看到端点; 然而，控制自己回家是极其困难的(比如从愤怒中冷静下来)。在这个充满死寂的悲伤世界里，你可以四处探索，但似乎什么也改变不了。随着冰面的上升(时间会治愈一切创伤)，我们终于可以回到正常的世界了。

The thesis is an aesthetic exercise on the disciplinary projects of the garden for Virtual Space. Trying to define new hybridity of nature and a synthetic landscape that contains within its existing flora and bizarre biosynthesis. By creating the flora which evolves not out of the aesthetic preferences of human (the traditional humanist garden) but out of the internal logic of a new code, the thesis wants to replace the process of human aesthetic selection with new thinking.

X City

Phoemphol Phoemphoolsinchai

Thesis Advisor: Elena Manferdini

Website: https://cityx.phoemphol.com/

项目介绍：如今，在跟上不断变化的智能技术的情况下，建筑将如何与农业结合，以一种可持续的方式来提供足够养活所有人的粮食供应? 此设计将探索建筑与可持续实践相结合的可能性，来创造一个自我建设的智慧城市。同时在洪水、野火、饥荒等灾害中为人类生活提供稳定的基础。减少这些危机影响的最佳方式是通过可持续的建筑来调整人类的生活方式。City X是一种直接与农业和社会联系的城市规划原型，为建筑提供了建设零净影响的当代城市的机会。

据研究表明，到了2050年，世界将面临粮食安全危机。根据世界经济论坛的预测，2050年将会有98亿人口，届时我们的粮食供应将面临更大的压力。2050年的需求将比现在高出60%，但气候变化、城市化和土壤退化将减少可耕地的可用性。因此以可持续自给自足为目标而建设的城市对解决这一粮食安全危机至关重要。

City X将以中国雄安新区为重点，应用一系列标准化的自我发展和智慧建筑城市模式，探索解决粮食安全和其他灾难性不稳定问题的可能方案: 城市农业结构、可再生能源和水资源管理。City X将提出一个“城市农业农场”模型，从方案设计到建造，将居住肌理与农业结合起来。它通过不破坏环境，为人们与自然和科技共处创造一条新的途径。City X是未来零净影响城市的选择。最后，城市将对废水进行处理。City X通过利用自然来帮助自然，依靠植物来帮助过滤或净化水。所有的创新都会被调整来适应场地环境，生产也将从社会和建筑之间的关系中产生，因为人们都会参与到他们的城市建设中去。City X并不是一个乌托邦，而是一个真正的关于城市系统的新想法的提案，或许将来这个提案需要被测试和加以完善。但这是雄安，这是未来!

How can architecture engage with agriculture while keeping up with changing smart technology to sustainably protect food supplies sufficient to feed everyone? The thesis explores the opportunity for architecture to combine with sustainable practices to produce a self-building and smart city and to provide a stable foundation for human life in a crisis like flooding, wildfire, or famine. The best way to start to reduce the impacts of thesis crises is to adjust human lifestyles through sustainable architecture. City X is a prototype for the architectural discipline to build a contemporary city with zero net impact. City X applieds nature to help nature by replying on plants to help filter or purify water. All innovations are adjusted to fit into the site surroundings, and the production will be created from the relationship between society and architecture as people participate in the construction of their city. City X is not a utopia but a real urban proposal when new ideas about city systems are tested or refined. This is Xiong'an. This is the future!

Perceptive Places

Yash Mehta

Thesis Advisor: Hernan Diaz Alonso

项目介绍：“感知之地”是关于意外的幻象。该项目探索了虚假的各个方面，以嵌入戏剧性的不真实的地方。这个项目的定位介于似是而非和超现实之间; 现在和缺离。现实主义被定义为现实与其表象之间的一种建构的张力。建筑一直被定位为概念或感觉，抽象或真实，但项目介入了欲望之间;虚假和想象力。

想象世界被一个存在所领导知道我们要去哪里是完全不真实的，但它的荒谬使它如此真实。世界的形象是由古代巨大的野兽在太空中承载的，它在许多不同的文化中都有出现。但他们现在在哪里?

“Perceptive Places” is about accidental phantoms. The project explores facets of fakeness to embed places with dramatic unreal-reality. The project positions itself somewhere in between the plausible and the surreal; the present and the absent. Realism is defined as a constructed tension between reality and its representation. Architecture has always been positioned as conceptual or sensoria, abstract or real, but the project intervenes between desires; fakeness, and imagination. To imagine that the world is being led by a being that knows where we’re headed is completely unreal, but its absurdity is what makes it so real. The image of the world is carried through space by ancient, massive beasts is so evocative that it appears in so many different cultures. But where are they today?

Musée Kit-ology

Housheng(Jack) Wang

Thesis Advisor: Tom Wiscombe

项目介绍：这个项目是一个新的LACMA博物馆提案，它的出发点是博物馆建筑是一个由部件组成的柜子。博物馆，从奇迹的橱柜到现代美术馆，都被视为文明创造的“缩影”——它将世界浓缩并缩小。模型套件是一个收藏，一套部件，一个策展-这是一个非常小规模的博物馆。这些部件被陈列在一个工具箱里，就像聚宝盆里的珍宝，但它们也可以被组装起来，指向一个真正的东西。对于一个新的LACMA的改变选项，类型被拉出成为部分，并在现场重新组装。各个部分被堆叠、缩放、旋转、相互嵌套，并组合成一个面对 Wilshire大道的超级人物。该项目本身是一个巨大的柜子，以创造性的方式包含了我们这个时代的艺术，并向城市开放。

This thesis project is a new LACMA museum proposal, which starts from the idea that the museum architecture is a cabinet of parts. The museum, from the cabinets of wonders to the modern gallery, was seen as “microcosms” of civilization's creation- it encapsulates and miniaturizes the world. Model kit is a collection, a set of parts, a curation- it’s a museum on an extremely small scale. The parts laid out and displayed in a kit, like treasures in a cornucopia, but they can also be assembled and point to a real thing. For an altered option for the new LACMA, the types were pulled out to become parts and be reassembled on the site. Parts are stacked, scaled, rotated, nested inside one another, and assembled into a super-figure facing Wilshire Boulevard. The project, itself a gigantic cabinet, contains the art of our time in inventive ways, and opens up to the city.

Mega-Ferriss In LA

Jiaoyue(Gia) Zhao & Deepak Agrawal

Thesis Advisor: Tom Wiscombe

Video Link：https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1rZ4y1V7CW

项目介绍：Hugh Ferriss笔下那郁郁不乐、神秘莫测的梦幻塔楼，似乎更适合于洛杉矶的黑色电影风格，而不是被无限网格禁锢的故乡：纽约。此项目从一系列Ferris启发的形式和剪影开始，通过各种转换, 挖掘它们尚未实现的潜力——复制、缩放、旋转、切片——然后将它们放置在洛杉矶。它观察了塑造大都市发展的两个问题。日益拥挤的城市生活环境已变得难以忽视。与此同时，FAANG公司的力量已经对城市生活的方方面面产生了相当大的影响。该作品通过将高密度与超大规模的户外区域相结合，并使我们可以占据和分享的“场地”成倍增加，来解决这些问题。结果形成了一系列的建筑惊喜:建筑嵌套在建筑中，而不是直接的内部与外部分离，无声的外部没有参考通常的“人类尺度”的窗户、门和阳台，以及与地面和周围城市的奇怪、有趣的关系。在这种情况下，洛杉矶市中心成为了这组塔楼的地面。密度显著增加，现有环境的水平方向受到挑战，绿色空间、广场和其他公共生活区域成倍增加，在城市现有行人平面的单一基准之上或之下。

Hugh Ferriss's moody, mysterious dream towers were always strangely more appropriate to the film noir landscape of Los Angeles than they were ever at home in the infinite grid of New York. This thesis starts with a collection of Ferriss-inspired forms and silhouettes and proceeds to mine their as-yet unrealized potentials through various transformations -- copy, scale, rotate, slice -- before setting them down in LA.

Megaform as Urban Landscape II:

Machinescape - Skywallker Distribution Machine

Ziao Zhou(Post-Graduate-City Program)

Thesis Advisor: Thom Mayne

项目介绍：这个项目从定位洛杉矶的'’食物沙漠'’问题入手，提出了利用位于洛杉矶河及阿拉米达通道交接之处的南太平洋铁路公司转运场来设计一个巨型的'’食品配送机器'’，来解决'’食物沙漠'’问题，让人们在洛杉矶郡的任何住区的半英里步行范围内都有平等的权利来获取新鲜农产品。设计者为'’食品配送机器'’设计了从食品的收获、储藏、配送及其相应的基础设施的整套配送系统，意图使其完全自动化。这个项目的亮点在于其如何利用现存基础设施网络来解决食物平等问题和其设计探讨了如何挑战后人类时代的建筑类型。

The project started with the problem of locating a ''food desert'' in Los Angeles, proposing to use the Southern Pacific Railroad's Piggyback yard at the junction of the Los Angeles River and the Alameda Passage to design a giant 'Food distribution machine' to solve ''food deserts'' by putting people within a half-mile walk of any Los Angeles County settlement where all have equal access to fresh produce. For 'The Food Distribution Machine' the designers have designed the entire distribution system from harvesting, storage, and distribution of food and its corresponding infrastructure with the intention of fully automating it. The highlight of this project is how it uses existing infrastructure networks to address food equality and how its design explores architectural typologies that challenge the post-human era.
