As mentioned in the Home page, I came from an architectural and design background, laying my interests and foundation in narratives, physical shapes and structures, geometries, colors, and spatial operation, which benefits me a lot while doing research related to digital fabrication and smart wearables. This page includes some of my previous design works in Architectural Design, Urban Planning, and Conceptual Works.

WHALE FALL
This architecture serves as a memorial to whales that have died in the Bay Area due to human activity, as I saw a real whale carcass on the beach in front of the Golden Gate Bridge. The museum mimics the organs of a whale and creates an atmosphere of going from alive to dead by reflecting the light of the sky and ocean.
CHRONIC DISEASE CONVALESCENCE AND POSTOPERATIVE REHABILITATION CENTER
This project envisions a rehabilitation center tailored for chronic disease convalescence and postoperative recovery. Situated in an urban context, it integrates medical care with spatial therapy, providing a dignified environment that fosters both physical healing and emotional well-being. The design considers aging not only as a physiological process but also as a social transition, embedding layered functional zones that support gradual reintegration into community life. It blends architecture, nature, and routine to ease the journey from illness to independence.
RECOMPOSING
RECOMPOSING explores the translation of music into architectural space, responding to issues of community safety, cultural identity, and emotional resonance. Rooted in the philosophical concept “seeing mountains as mountains again,” the project draws from layered musical understanding to shape a built environment that embodies both structure and spirit. Set within a socially complex site, it reimagines architecture as a medium of healing, reflection, and transformation. Music becomes more than sound—it becomes form, rhythm, and atmosphere. Through spatial reinterpretation, the project confronts themes of life, death, and essence, aiming to recompose not only space, but also the human experience within it.
