Who is your favourite architect? Why?
One of my favorite architects is Antoni Gaudí. I was impressed by the visual effects of his works even before my study of architecture. His works are beyond what human beings could create – they are so lively as to swamp my senses. After I started studying architecture, I like his architecture more and more. His ideas,designs and construction techniques are so unique that he created Barcelona.

What is the major characteristic of your current school’s education?
My college offers a relatively traditional education which may have some systematic or methodological limits. However, many professors are trying to break the traditions and get more exploring opportunities for the students. I was lucky that I met a few good profs and seniors who were willing to share their experience.

What have you gained during the MAD internship?
Interning at MAD was exciting – not only because of Ma Yansong, but also because of the friends and co-workers I met there. MAD pays much attention to its diversity. Hence, everyone there was different: from different places, with different cultural background, having different understandings of architecture. Interaction with everyone would open a new world of architecture and life for me. It is a magical place where so many people with different backgrounds gather and do the same thing. Interning here and living in Beijing, I realized how important life experience is to the understanding of architecture and learned by heart that architecture is part of human science.

What are your thoughts and feelings upon Chinese Architecture and the environment?
Any suggestion?
China is developing so fast that all industries here are like overloaded machines – they refused to slow down even if they could not stand any more. Architecture is closely related to many industries. The fickleness of the architectural industry is not only its own problem, but also related to other industries. Moreover, it’s possible that fickleness is a necessity during the process. I do not have a view on the whole industry. I wish I could stay calm, focus on the details, and do something good.

What is your dream?
My dream is that I could have enough time to stay for a while in different places around the world. I hope that I could know people from different cultures who speak different languages. Hence, I would learn about cultures I don’t know – not only to observe the cultures, but also to get myself involved.

What would you do if you were not an architect?
Maybe I would be a cook. Cooking a meal is a pure creative process and is very interesting.

What is your dream project?
My ideal project would be a landmark of a city. When you see it, you could see the city’s past, present and future.

What is your favourite project in your portfolio? Why?
There is no one of my favorite works, my work is still very immature, though some of the idea is good, but I feel that the complete degree is not high, there are a lot of room for deepening. But if the idea, I think it should be when I was a junior in Dujiangyan folk museum, hope their next work will make themselves more satisfied.

最喜欢的建筑师是谁？为什么？
我想我最喜欢的建筑师应该是高迪，在我还没有接触建筑之前，他就给了我很深的印象，那种喜欢完全是出于视觉的冲击，觉得他的建筑不是人能创造出的东西吧，那建筑仿佛有生命，要吞噬我的感官(什么意思？)。等到接触了建筑，越发喜欢高迪，从思想到设计到施工手法都很独特，他铸就了巴塞罗那，他的建筑变成了文化。

你所在学校的教育特点？
学校的教育是比较传统的，在制度和教育模式上给学生的自由度不是很大，但是不少老师还是在努力打破传统的建筑教育模式，想让学生们得到更多开拓视野的机会。我觉得自己运气不错，遇到了一些不错的老师，和乐于分享经验给我的学长。

在MAD实习最大的收获是什么？
在MAD实习很让人兴奋，不单单是因为马岩松的光环，更是因为在那里遇到的朋友同事，MAD很注重公司的内部的多样性，遇到的每个人都很不同，来自不同的地方，有着不同的文化背景，对建筑不同的理解，跟每个人接触都好像见到一个不同的世界，不单单是建筑方面，更是生活。这个地方很神奇，让这么多不同背景的人聚在了一起，一起做着同一件事情。在这里实习，以及生活在北京，让我感受到生活的体验对建筑的认识是多么重要，更让我深深感到建筑在我心中就是人文科学。

你对中国建筑的感触是什么？建议是什么？
中国发展得这么快，似乎这个国家的任何行业都像是一个过载的机器，明明机体都要承受不住了，却还要拼命不肯放慢脚步，建筑业和很多行业都有着密切的关系，建筑业的浮躁并不仅仅是这一个行业的问题，涉及的问题肯定很深很广泛，而且说不定从更高的地方看我说的浮躁的问题，就是必经的过程。我倒是没什么建议，只希望自己能够静下心来好好做好每一个细节，完成一些好的有质量的作品。

你的梦想是什么？
我的梦想是自己能够有足够的时间，能够在世界各地生活一段时间，认识来自不同国家，说着不同语言的朋友，去认识了解更多自己不知道的文化，不仅仅作为一个文化的观察者，而是能融入他们，体会他们。还有我希望能和我的女朋友结束长时间的两地恋，聚在一起，在哪里都好。

你如果不当建筑师会选择什么职业？
如果不做建筑师的话，没仔细想过，也许会当一个厨师，做菜是一个挺纯粹的创造过程，很有意思。

你梦想中的项目是什么样的？
我理想中的项目应该是能够成为一个城市的文化印记的，当你看到它时，就仿佛看到了这座城市的过去，现在和未来。

在自己的作品集中，你最喜欢的作品是什么？为什么？
还没有出现我最喜欢的作品，自己的作品还很不成熟，虽然有些想法不错，但是感觉完成度并不很高，有很多深化的余地。但如果说想法的话，我觉得应该是大三时候做的都江堰的民俗博物馆，希望自己的下一个作品能够让自己更满意。

Triditional Culture Center
民俗体验馆

Dujiangyan folk experience pavilion, the starting point is the casting experience of Dujiangyan city west street residents daily life space, courtyard and create a rich space form of roadway, and the variety of light and shadow. I notice the simple relationship of light and space, showing the ancient town residents to the original state of life. The construction is from the west street garden features, using the method of abstract west street, to shape a from west street law UK folk museum, adopted three-step narratives. through the actual situation of the thrust, I enrich layers of space, the transport package number in the streamline circulation, makes the space smoothly.

都江堰民俗体验馆，出发点在于铸造空间体验都江堰西街居民的日常生活，庭院与巷道营造的丰富的空间形式，以及带来的多样的光影效果，从简单的光与空间的关系入手，展现了古镇居民原有的生活状态。建筑根据西街的街道庭院特色，运用抽象西街的方法，重新塑造了一个源于西街的民俗馆，采取了三段式的叙事手法，通过虚实的穿插，丰富了层次，在流线上做到大循环交通包裹小循环交通，使得空间流畅。

Ecological Tribe

The entire planning shows the rural and urban planning land in sharp opposition. we plan to overthrow the existing planning. That is due to not agree with the definition of urban and rural border. Urban and rural ought not to be opposite, the opposite situation can lead to urban to rural expanding without constraints. The clear boundary severely reduces the positive impact of rural to city, and the penetration mechanism of boundary can make living in rural and urban residents enjoy a better living environment.When the cities is into rural, in order to put the two heterogeneous better fusion, we chose to use to solve the heterogeneous co-existence ecological point of view, we start from the three aspects of water, light, air to form a complete ecological system.

整片规划用地表现出田园与城市鲜明的对立性，我们将原有规划推翻，是由于不赞同它对城市与田园边界的定义，城市与田园不应该是鲜明对立的，这种对立性会导致城市向田园不断扩张而没有约束，边界的明确严重降低了田园对城市的正面影响，而由渗透的机制构成的边界则能使居住在田园和城市的居民享受到更好的居住环境。当把城市融入田园之后，为了将这两种异质的东西更好的融合，我们选择采用生态的角度来解决异质的共生，从水、光、空气的三个方面来形成一个完整的生态系统。

Follow the rules of CBD development, build a new form in the heart of the city.Shaft is nucleus to objective laws of development of the city – the city material form and function of form development adhere to the combination of axial development and core. Activities in the urban system, urban form strong linear connection, the linear space form is called AXIS (AXIS); Urban functions in a particular block form together, in the spirit and the image formed on the symbol when the block is the nucleus (CORE).According to the architectural functional partition, traffic to establish contactHuman activity, according to different crowd behavior patterns, combined with block space function form and spatial mode, integrated traffic system, add a new network system, will be linked to various space node in the plot.Combination of point, line and plane, three-dimensional layout, improve the public space of mutual penetration in the contact. Building local inner concave digging cutting formation on the surface of gray space, gives its use function, building space reduction of urban space, increase the urban open space.

遵循CBD发展规律，构建城市中心新形态。轴核结合时城市中心区发展的客观规律——城市中心区物质形态和功能形态发展遵循轴向开发和核心开发的有机结合的规律。在城市系统中，城市活动形成很强的线性联系时，这一线性空间形态就被称为轴（AXIS）；城市功能在特定区块形成聚集，在精神和形象上形成象征时，这一区块就是核（CORE）。依据建筑功能分区，建立联系交通研究人活动行为，针对不同人群行为模式，结合地块空间功能形式和空间模式，整合交通体系，加建新路网体系，将地块中的各个空间节点联系起来。点线面结合，立体化布置，提高公共空间的相互渗透于联系。建筑表面挖切形成局部内凹灰空间，赋予其使用功能，将建筑空间还原城市空间，增加城市开放空间。
