Technology, Flavors, and Fragrances Innovatrium

Dundee, Michigan

People living around Cabela’s don’t realize that they are actually controlled by a unique urbanism. People are living in the artificial area but they think that this area has always existed there. People do not realize this area actually is growing up under the control of Cabela’s.

People think this area is developing in the “natural” way and they do not know that there are different lay-ers in this urbanism. Another condition that exists in this urbanism is the relationship between the densi-ty of buildings and the power which these buildings have. The area which has low density of buildings has more power to control this perimeter and controls a large territory, for example, Cabela’s. On the other hand, the area which has high density of buildings has less power to influence this perimeter and controls a small territory, for example, the residential area.

My project in this perimeter studio wants to tell peo-ple about these conditions in this unique urbanism. This project tries to lead people to explore their liv-ing environment. All experience will be controlled by the images, the closed garden, the public garden and the fragrance in this building. People walk through the various spaces and experience the difference be-tween artificial fragrance and natural fragrance and feel the level of density in their environment.

IN-muscle-OUTHuman Body

The goal for this project is to use Rhino script to run an organic form for a human body, then study and build a structure system to create this form. Learning how to use this structure system for architecture is crucial for this project.

This human body is represented by two different conditions: Cleidocranial dysostosis (body without bones) and Fiber Hyper-tropphy (over muscular body) According to the result of the study of the distance between the outline of muscle and the bone, we use Rhino Script to calculate the new outline of muscle on the diseased body.

ERASEDREMEMBERED:

A HOTEL ROOMThesis Studio

Architects design buildings, and other people make buildings into architecture.

Michel de Certeau said a place is an instantaneous configuration of positions. It implies an indication of stability, but space is a practiced place; it occurs as the effect pro-duced by the operations that ori-ent it, situate it, temporalize it, and make it function.

Today, architects do not design space. Architects design place for the objects, and other people use their emotion, movement, daily life, and memory to create their own space.

Shared, Filed, Erased, Remem-bered: a hotel room investigates how people’s emotion, movement, daily life and other elements like time, events and culture change the perception of individuals when they create this memory and how that memory is then replayed within new context and experiences.

“Memories tie us to that place... It’s personal, not interesting to anyone else, but after all that’s what gives a neighborhood its character.”

- a woman living in the Croix-Rousse quarter in Lyon, interviewed by Pierre Mayol,Michel de Certeau, The Practice of Everyday Life, P108

In this thesis, the structure of memory consists of three elements: container, trigger, and projector.

Container, generally means the buildings. It saves people’s memory in a specific place. Because of peo-ple’s memory, this “place” becomes “space” for these people.

Trigger, means some special objects can wake up your memory in some places, they might be food, fra-grance, or just atmosphere. People do not need to go to specific spaces, the container, to see their memory. The trigger will pull people’s mind back to the space. But the memory will still save in the container.

Projector, means people’s perception of a space when the trigger wakes up your memory which hap-pened in a container. Projector usually shows on your subconscious movements and these movements also create people’s territory of their own life.

When people identify architecture in their memory, using these three elements, these perceptions create what I am calling a new “memory scale” of architecture.

A hotel room operates, controls and stores different people’s memory scale.

Pilot, Stalker, Boy, Internetaholic, Businessperson, Murderer, Depression patient, and Maid; different characters have their own personalities and stories. This difference makes them activate their own memory scale on the objects which do not belong to themselves to create their own space.

People use their own memory scale on the same objects; after they leave, their memory scale is erased by maid. But people will remember what they did for different memory scale and they can imagine another hotel room before they go to the next one. Their memory scale is filed and shared with other people in this hotel room.They temporarily use their own memory scale to make this hotel room become their own room.

Page 59: Yu-Chen Chang Portfolio
Page 60: Yu-Chen Chang Portfolio

People now create their own memory scale for different buildings and make them into architecture, their own space. It seems like architects do not need to design for users.

In this thesis. different memory scale have various architectural issues: daily life, subconscious movement, blind spots, dependence, habit, compulsive movement, rules, acculturation, event, moment, five senses, emotion, disease, reaction and reflection.

These issues are represented in various diagrams and spaces on this drawing. Unfold these spaces: these spaces created by memory scale could be real architecture: a perfect one or a phobic one. They could be a room, a closet, a hospital, even a jail.

ActLoading dock, Art and Architecture Building /

team project with Evan Hall and Therese Roche

This project investigates how people react when they are doing a normal thing in an unusual space. For example: watching a movie in an uncomfortable space. This abstract brain theater is located at the loading dock. People will feel crowded and hot in this space. When people sit on one side and look into the model, they also will see other people’s heads from the other sides of this model.

The scene from American Buffalo is projected into the interi-or space of the model. The audience is encouraged to move freely around the model creating shadows that will play with the idea of duality within the two theaters, interior and exte-rior of the model. Simultaneously the “set” of found images from reuse shops in both Ann Arbor and Los Angeles are projected on the exterior of the model. The scene chosen from American Buffalo is the ending scene and was chosen for intense range of character dialogue and interaction and ability to showcase each character’s traits.

This project is to develop techniques of presenting processing and organization. By selecting a single element of dandelion, this project works through a series of transformations. This project considers the components of the environment, like sunshine, rain, wind and animals, and develops a pattern of interaction with these components. This pattern has the light sensor on the surface and opens and closes following the daylight. The rain will help the seeds grow in the seed cup and spread with the wind and birds.

Variation and variety seem similar but actually they have different processes and cause various results. In “Atlas of Novel Tectonics,” Reiser and Umemoto think repetition and quantity are important elements to create the varia-tion and variety. They think variety is like difference and variation is more like self-similarity. When people have enough quantity and people can control the repetition, they can generate variation or variety. But the argument is that these are not the most important reasons to define variation or variety.

“Variation” is to transfer one thing to other things and make them have more differences. These differences are usually visible, like shape, form and color. But the important thing is that “variation” does not change the major core. These transformed things just change the skin but they do not change their hearts. Using architecture for example, an architect can use the same context of structure but develop different façades or material for skin. These buildings look all different, but their inside space and structures are still the same.

“Variety” seems similar to “variation,” but actually they have different definitions. “Variety” also involves transfer-ring one thing to other things and makes them have more differences. But the difference from “variation” is that “variety” changes the major core. The tricky thing is that “variety” does not always change the visible elements. Sometimes the two things look the same but their components are totally different. For example, no one can distinguish identical twins from the way they look but actually they are two completely different people.

Variation I VarietyTheory and Criticism

[ ]Is abuse one kind of mistake? Reiser and Umemoto think some projects over use the data, logic, history, etc. and that this causes some infl uences. This infl uence is usually bad, but these experiences might help designers have more backgrounds to cover their ideas. The process has its pros and cons.

See [error] Frank GehryWalt Disney Concert HallLos Angeles, California, 2003

Nothing is perfect, but we can avoid the reason which will make the thing worse. Many people just see the result and then think that is an error. Instead we should care about more on the reason which cause this result. That is the real error.

See [abuse] Leaning Tower of PisaPisa, Italy, 1372

Is it a good thing to keep extending your design? It will be good if it stops at a good time. At that moment, people can clearly see your spectacular work. If it is over de-sign, that will be an error.

See [abuse] [error] Martha SchwartzJacob Javits PlazaNew York, New York, 1992

In this communicated world, people need to work with other people to live. They do not notice that they actually all have dif-ferent personalities. We have six billion in this world, so we have six billion personali-ties in this world.

Some architecture is cold. People can-not feel the energy inside because they cannot get the passion from the architect. “Less is not always more.”

Tadao AndoChurch of the LightOsaka, Japan, 1989

Difference from the extensive, refrain usu-ally happens out of control. People can stop the extensive but something they can just refrain it. It will not stop but will go slowly. This will cause the different result or control the different end timing.

Style is not following the trend. Style is your own spirit for your work. One day, you will have all the proper reasons to talk about your work and people will also understand your spirit. That is your style.

Territory is not a shape. It is a relationship between you and this world. It can be visible or indivisible. It can be just yours or public. It is a system running everywhere. Where is something connected with you, that is how far your territory goes.

[ ]Variation cannot change the original part. It can make something beautiful or fl at; dark or light. But people still can see the pure part. The original inside goes with different outside, and vice versa.

Something is fl exible, but it does not mean it is not important. Something is multiple, but it does not mean you do not need it. Go to the same goal different ways.
