After site analysis and group<br />
discussion, we all agree that<br />
the scale of lilong buildings is<br />
pretty suitable to encourage<br />
residents to get along with<br />
each other. Therefore, we<br />
try to adapt the old scale of<br />
a unit in our new proposal,<br />
which is to pile up community<br />
with several smaller sections.<br />
Each section will own a new<br />
conceptually "ground floor"<br />
for daily activities.<br />

Tianhe Youth Commune, O-Office<br />
The bridge system has been introduced<br />
to access from the ground<br />
floor to the roof. The bridge itself provides<br />
not only access, but also green<br />
space, public aggregation and view.<br />
Original Circulation on the Ground Floor<br />
The original root of the site was considered<br />
to remain in the new proposal as the general<br />
circilation for the whole community.<br />

Possible Connected Public Green Space<br />
It is supported that there would be green<br />
space where would be arranged for public<br />
circulation, providing better living condition.<br />
