混合使用／二元論述
台北街頭巷弄始終有種混亂但卻也吸引人的現象，令人有感於在地的能量。其中混合使用扮演不可或缺的角色，相較於有形的外觀，內容本身的「跳TONE」，更令人驚奇。住宅區、傳統大廈、二樓與三樓的小酒館、辦公樓中的挑空廟宇、騎樓的多功能使用……這些混合使用的狀態雖然帶來了能量、新奇，但也伴隨了危險、髒亂等負面形象。
設計上一直思考「二元共存」，A、B兩個內容共存互相影響的可能性，企圖去蕪存菁，保有A、B應有的主體性，但仍鼓勵或共享彼此部分的空間。可以是視覺、聽覺的交換，但也拒絕無限制的空間交融策略，好像什麼都可以混搭，其實不好的混合是亂源，反而消耗了正面的能量。
美學說
在混合使用的潛規則下，台灣城市鄉村景觀普遍紊亂，但這種有機紛亂的現象長此以往，似也發展了另類美學的可能，這其中不少建築家、藝術家均有詮釋。
招牌、鴿子籠、電線、霓虹燈……這種看似庶民的都市城鄉風貌，似乎也暗示了台式美學的可能。像是戴上透視「生命力」的眼鏡，任何紛亂無章的台式場景，均可昇華成「台式美學」的意象，利用輕鋼架及金屬網，創造不同皮層，讓「理性的構成」隱藏在「非理性的皮層」之下，企圖打造衝突與和諧共存的美學觀。
屋頂平台的文藝復興
天際線是台灣城市發展的夢魘，最好的天空之城，淪為無政府主義下的戰場。其實老屋防漏的考量、屋頂層高溫難耐、儲物功能及屋頂溫室的概念，均是屋頂加蓋存在的主因。但可惜雜亂無章，甚至危險，造成公安諸多疑慮。
另外，屋頂平台的社交功能（公共性）若能被凸顯，則除了形式外，應當更能豐富公眾使用的多元性，所以我們提出屋頂有機農園的混合使用策略，利用屋突等設施物，將屋頂平台改造成可休息，可耕作，可供眺望的絶美空間，為台灣城鄉過度混亂的屋頂天際線提出有效的解決方案！
一場結合建築生活與構築藝術的空間改革運動！
「⋯⋯柱分裂為二，T型接頭衍生結構，輕鋼架系統成型，分裂的柱恰可允許機電管線穿越，形成主結構（結構本身）與次級結構系統（如機電、空調、電腦網路⋯⋯）並置之空間架構。其中衍生的扣件，爪具需整體設計，而樓板的模矩系統亦採特製鋼承板單元澆注輕質混凝土工法⋯⋯」
Mixed Usage／Dualism
The alleys of Taipei are filled with chaos yet it is precisely this mess which is full of allure and radiates a form of vernacular energy. Mixed usage plays a crucial role in this picture, contrary to stylistic sculptural forms, the dissonance of the program sequence strikes a more astounding chord. Residential areas, traditional buildings, two and two quarters bar, a temple embedded in an office building, the mixed usage of arcade space……Though the disarray of these spaces creates positive energy, these bold concoctions are also accompanied by danger and sloppiness.
The dual existence and interrelationship of A and B programs have always been a core design philosophy. How do we extract the essence of A and B, such that they retain their thematic identity, yet simultaneously encourage the exchange or sharing of two spaces? It could be the transfer of visual and audio senses! Though it might seem that all programs can be mixed and matched, but exchanged without discipline and limits will only create disorganization and waste positive energy.
Aesthetic Theory
Through the unspoken rules of mixed usage, the countryside of Taiwan is uniformly sloppy and disorganized, yet it is through this organic urban sprawl which gives birth to the possibility of an aesthetic theory. Many architects and artists have attempted to illustrate the vernacular Taiwanese aesthetic image; store signs, pigeon cages, power lines, and neon lights……Through the kaleidoscope of vitality, any such chaotic scenery can be elevated to a higher level of interpretation. Through the use of light structures and wire mesh, a multi-layered membrane of “rational tectonics” can be embedded unto “the irrationality of the outer skin”; this aesthetic theory is an attempt to unify both conflicted and harmonious imagery.
The Renaissance of Rooftop Platforms
The skyline of Taiwan’s cities have always been a nightmare. The most poetic city of the skies has been overrun due to lack of government regulations. Regarding the deterioration of waterproofing and the unbearable temperatures of rooftop platforms, storage functionality and green houses have slowly evolved into illegal rooftop additions which has raised concerns regarding building aesthetics and even dangerous construction methods.
Furthermore, if the social aspect of rooftop platforms can be given more notice, more diversity will be allowed for the public’s benefit. Thus we propose to create a rooftop organic garden, and through utilizing rooftop extrusions, we are able to transform this space into playgrounds for viewing and rest. The oversaturation of disorganized skylines of Taiwan’s countryside can be overcome through this proposal!
A spatial revolution through mixing artistic tectonics and everyday architecture!
“……a column split in two, T-shaped joint extends unto structure, the formation of light structure, the separated column allows for electrical and plumbing wiring to pass through, forming a main structure body and a secondary structural system （such as electrical, air conditioning, internet cable……） embedded inside this spatial framework. The derivative joint detail, the wall claws need to be designed with the whole framework in mind. The rhythmic modular floor slabs uses custom metal deck units, and lightweight concrete is poured upon……”
