Those redesigned laneways not only become an extension of public space, but also increase the connectivity within the city.

Re-Imagining Flyovers


Transportation infrastructure has always been perceived with public disgust as it is associated with pollution, street sleepers, crimes, segregation and demolition of neighborhoods. Consequently, contemporary planners and architects tend to take on a disengaging or even concealing approach to build

Reusable Olympic Stadium


Every two years, a city invests millions of dollars preparing for either the summer or winter Olympics constructing numbers of facilities in a short period of time. However once the Olympic flame is extinguished, some of these venues become useless and fall into disrepair.

This thesis explores the potential of temporary building material that is inexpensive, readily available and recyclable, particularly in the form of paper as a source of inspiration. Taking paper as key structural material, this project challenges the current construction inertia of using steel and concrete for Olympic venue construction, in attempt to create an architecture that can be easily disassemble and reassemble in subsequent events.
