Under The Tree

This academic project gives me an opportunity to design a construction as not a problem solver but a questioner.

I pull out the pedestrian tree, and use artificial facilities to play the role which was originally played by root. Those functional facilities are actually referring the human’s excessive transformation of nature for self-survival. This has happened in many places, especially in urban areas, but has often been ignored and forgotten, just because it is deeply buried. Therefore, this design also provides a possibility to directly confront the over-transformation by exposing everything underground.
