Yearbook of THU-ARCH

These two projects are trying to answer: what elements cause a soothing, relaxing, and safe sensation? I start by investigating all modes of transportation, meditation space, and architecture. Found that privacy (an enclosure), abode (a place to sleep, soft material), hearth (energy), identity (relationship with self), and heart (relationship with others) are the five elements that make a soothing, relaxing, and safe sensation. Through these elements, I then translate into space, and into furniture.
