DESIGN TOPICThe main design topic of high-rise condominiums is the sense of alienation brought by vertical traffic and possible unsafe corners. How to create a vertical settlement with humanistic care is the main topic of this design.
In this design, I expect to break the residential relationship in the high-rise residential buildings where each floor space is cut by the floor, which not only makes the space continuously blocked, but also blocks the possibility of residents interacting with each other. |
In the abstraction of the concept,
it is attempted to change the direction of gravity and create a surreal vertical living wall,
which allow residents to freely move, communicate, and face the city.
I hope this design can return the freedom of residence to the residents,
and redefines the collective living style of high-rise condominiums.

In the past few decades, the intense growth of population and the change of social structural have led to the continual production of giant buildings in Asia. The height and width of the building expand to the limit of the floor area. Such a large number of homogeneous manufacturing severely limits the autonomous variability of individual residential units.
DESIGN CONCEPTCreate a surreal wall and make the street vertical . It is not the gravity which is challenged, but the gravity of the residents. After the vertical distribution of the houses, this design redefine the collective living style of high-rise condominiums. Let residents live on the wall and face the city.

RESIDENTIAL UNITThe residential units are independent to increase the ventilation and lighting area of each room. The raised living room extends outward to the courtyard and is connected to the vertical street. Let the space of life no longer be restricted to the interior, extending the sense of space upwards. Therefore it increases the possibility of interaction with neighbors.
