The progrom focuses on reimagining an abandoned greenhouse at 770 Woolsey Street, San francisco.as a community center. This project emphasizes the concept of "disappearance," integrating the building into its environment and community. The course involves in-depth research on greenhouse typologies,site-specifc history, and design strategies, encouraging innovative thinking about urban agriculture andcommunity spaces. In my concept, "continuous" relates to the ongoing interaction between architecture and its ecological environment, highlighting how buildings and their surroundings mutually influence and transform each other over time. This process, driven by natural forces rather than human intervention, gradually erodes the distinctions between the built structure and the natural world, leading to their eventual integration into a new ecological context. Your main idea focuses on leveraging nature's own actions to seamlessly blend architecture with its environment, fostering a dynamic, long-term fusion that respects and utilizes natural elements like plant growth and spatial flexibility.

This recreation center in Oakland aims to explore a new architectural form in a city dominated by masonry, steel, and concrete buildings, using a multi-story building form using wood as the primary material, combined with the concept of a sky garden. The multi-story building will not only provide a variety of recreational activities for the neighborhood, but will also play an important role in reducing carbon emissions, sequestering carbon, and improving the natural environment of the city, serving as an urban “oasis” in the diverse city of Oakland. As a city with a long history and a diverse population, Oakland has developed a varied architectural landscape over the course of its urban growth. From modern office buildings, multifamily housing complexes, and commercial centers, to industrial sites and historic buildings, a variety of building types coexist in the city. However, as populations continue to grow, cities face increasing demands for housing and pressure on infrastructure, as well as environmental issues such as air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions and depletion of natural resources. The project address is located at the intersection of Grand AVE and Broadway, 23rd and Webster Streets, one of Oakland's major transportation corridors and one of its busiest traffic nodes. The area is densely populated and surrounded by a variety of building types including residential, commercial and office buildings constructed primarily of concrete, masonry and stone. The existing site consists of two parking lots that form an L-shaped parcel around the existing commercial building, totaling approximately 29,400 square feet with street frontage on all four sides. The project site is exposed to environmental issues such as high daily carbon emissions, low carbon sequestration capacity, and sustainability challenges. These environmental issues not only affect the daily activities of the neighboring residents, but also pose a threat to the overall ecology of the area. The design of the new recreation center will take into account the site's human context and the city's environmental issues, and is committed to providing a rich recreational space for the surrounding residents, while improving the site's natural environment through green building techniques and sky garden design.
