WANDER & WONDER

SUBURBAN COMMUNITY LIBRARY

Honoured project for exhibition | CUHK

Place: Tung Chong, Hong Kong

This studio is to design a thematic library on a chosen site, requiring students to address most of the issues of a practical medium size building, from conceptual design to details and interiors. My project, Trinity Discovery, aims to merge the reading process, a discovery process that includes seeking, digesting and reflecting ,with the spatial and visual experience, meanwhile echoing with the village context and the topographical conditions. The design process is in a parallel way. It addresses issue outside the building such as connection with the diverse site environment of Tung Chong and the formal expression. At the same time it investigates the relationship of form and interior spatial quality through perspective. Structural issues and details are considered in the later stage.
