Dissuading ownership of automobiles


Create a central identity for the campus

Create places for study and casual social exchange, and embrace the in-between time, place for stay.

Create places for people to stay to minimize unnecessary trips between study, work and live

Create more chances for people to meet each other and embrace not only efficiency but unexpected journeys because that’s where creativity starts.

Create relaxing and contemplating places and promoting sustainable practices such as constructed wetland and other stormwater management methods.

Using the Transit convenient development to create residential opportunities along the transit line, concentrating the housing requirement and change the current condition where people live apart, also connect the central campus with the grand river commercial center.

The architecture should have a central element, but also several smaller pieces that follows the natural process, or take clues from our landscape. Create outdoor/indoor rooms that all comes together. 

A place to enjoy solitude, to view nature in its pure form, to get away from the reality people are trying to recreate, to use imagination instead of eyes to achieve a higher state of reality, a reality with novelty that we construct from our own experiences. Medieval art and novels, music and poems and abstract forms all gave us this feeling. There are rooms where you enjoy the natural change of seasons, feel the leaves, see the true nature. Because I’m afraid as we go more into reality, it weakens our true relationship with nature. The ugliness should reside within beauty.

Restoring the symbiotic relationship between people and landscape.

Demonstrate the ability of bikes by creating facilities suitable for bike travels.

Concentrate resources in the central campus to respond to the future of campus
