Aesthetic Concept
Gothic constructions & patterns representing the Naturalism
 Deconstructing the Naturalist Spirit
 of the Victoria Building

The architect uses botanical patterns and
Gothic arches, Windows, gables and spires
to interpret naturalism. By deconstructing the
naturalistic spirit of the Victorian building, I
have abstracted these elements into Spaces
of different sizes or inside muscles or
arrangements. And used to disrupt and reor-
ganize the spatial order of existing buildings

Beauty – aspiration towards God expressed in
ornamentation drawn from nature, his creation
Life – buildings should be made by human
hands, so that the joy of masons and stone-
carvers is associated with the expressive free-
dom given them

     --Adapted from “The Lamp ofMemory”

The arch line, or curved shape of the arch,
serves as its moral character, with the forces
of gravity and weight from above being temp-
tations for the arch to stray from its intended
function. To protect the arch from these temp-
tations, the voussoirs, or the particular stones
of the arch, act as its protection against ruin.
The connection between man and arch is as
follows: “if either arch or man expose them-
selves to their special temptations or adverse
forces, outside of the voussoirs or proper and
appointed armor, both will fall.”

    My project aims to build a community. It has a
  multi-storey vertical farm and tea room with DIY
   afternoon tea as the main activity. My concept is
  to use the process of DIY afternoon tea as a way                                          Victoria
   for people to communicate with agriculture and                                           sponge
                         others.                                           scones jam                           Berry
                                                                             clotted                           Tartlets
After studying the food and traditional decorations in afternoon tea, I      cream
  analyzed the ingredients. They can be roughly classified into three
 categories. One is plants can be used or eaten without processing
  after picking and washing. Like strawberries in Victoria Sponge or
                              roses in a vase.
The second category is foods that require a short amount of time to
process, like cooking. In this category there is letture and cream. The
processing of this kind of food needs to be extended later if it is put
into DIY activities. There is also a special food. Jam Jam is not a food    Fresh
           that can be processed right away, but it can still be.           roses
                                                                                                            Flower
The third type of food is one that requires a lot of processing. In this                                   arranging
 case, it is the flour used to make bread. The process from wheat to
 flour is a DIY activity that cannot be completed in this community.
