Design a Toilet

-
    I was in a team with Beck, Dylan, and Theresa to design a 10m² toilet, and I was responsible for designing the floor plan of the toilet. Our designed size is 2.5m × 4m.  A 10m² toilet is relatively large in ordinary houses, so I designed a wet and dry separation toilet. Wet and dry separation can reduce the humidity of the toilet and improve the comfort of residents. In addition, I have designed a large bathtub. Although the shower room already meets the bathroom's essential flushing function, I believe the bathtub is the most relaxing toilet tool.

    The window I designed is in the middle, so people's activities in the toilet cannot be directly seen from outside. This is based on privacy considerations.

    This is my first time designing a toilet specifically. I have changed the placement of the bathtub and toilet many times, which made me realize that things that usually look simple also require a very long time to design. This is a design that allows me to focus on learning.
    In addition, I am also responsible for designing the team logo. The logo of our group is taken from the initials of our four English names. And we found that all four letters of "H" "B" "T" and "D" appeared in "Happy birthday", which our group found very interesting and in line with the happy atmosphere of our group. So when I designed it, I added elements of "cake". The three letters "H" "B" and "D" formed the cake's body, and the letter "T" transformed into a candle. I think this is an interesting design attempt.

Mozuna Kiko and His Grand Architectural Thought

-
Image
     Mozuna Kiko was born in Kushiro, Hokkaido in 1941. The vast fields and starry sky in Kushiro City formed Mozuna Kiko's initial impression of the world. Because of this broad and mysterious atmosphere, Mozuna Kiko has formed an almost infinite grand view in his architectural career. In the 1960s, postmodernism rose and led the trend of thought of liberation worldwide, and then quickly extended to the field of architecture. In the field of architecture, aesthetic diversity broke out, and various architects boldly carried out innovative designs and incorporated various humanistic concepts. In 1965, when postmodernism prevailed, Mozuna Kiko graduated from Kobe University in Japan. Under the influence of post-modernism, Mozuna Kiko formally began his exploration of architectural theory.      After graduation, Mozuna Kiko first stayed at Kobe University as an assistant professor at Mukai Masaya. He founded his own office in 1978 and became a professor at Tama Art University in 1995.

A vent house that isolates the outside world

     When I was conceptualizing my final assignment, I came up with the concept of an outlet room. Recently, students have been under increasing pressure, and I often feel pressure while working in the studio. So I think we need a place to carry our emotions. This place should be filled with plush things. Because I think soft things can help people quickly relax.      I made a model for this, where external questioning or slander is like a shattered glass cover, while the soft fabric isolates these fragments and protects the people in the middle. The clay person in the middle represents different emotions, and all emotions can be expressed in this room.

Tempietto

     Tempietto is a representative building of the Renaissance style designed and built by Donato Bramante. Tempietto was built in memory of St. Peter. When Donato Bramante designed Tempietto, he referred to the style of ancient Roman architecture. Especially columns. The consensus of architects at that time was that different architectural column styles should be used to commemorate different people or gods. Donato Bramante used the Doric order of ancient Rome in order to make the whole building more consistent with the concept of commemorating St. Peter. This also shows that Donato Bramante does not blindly pursue classical style, but combines it with spiritual connotation. This is also a prominent feature of Renaissance architecture.      Donato Bramante emphasizes volume. In Tempietto's plan, he used two geometric patterns of circle and square, which made the whole building full of changes. There is a strong sense of the existence of a circle of columns around the periphery
