Light up

In the night time, Feng chia university is quiet and close, however, the market which is close to campus is extremely busy. The high contrast between market and campus makes us think, how can we active the nightlife on campus, attract the crowds to come into campus to know student life at Fengchia University. Besides city campus, we also need to fix with the old administration building rebuild program.

our strategy is, Tracking objects with motion detectors to control light effects, and combining with small moving objects to create new functions in different places can be a variety of platforms for rest, entertainment, and business. Same strategy will apply on building rebuild program. The building will have an open plan to have flexible space for the light program.

Let the tourists walk in and let the university's "nightlife" come alive.

In this case, I broke the rules and regulations which is always asked by tutors when I as a typical architecture. I found that there is more thing can change in architecture design. Not only design with the wall and floor according to human's need, but also start with people's activities. This program led me to the interactive space design area.
