Reframing Climate Change
“Moving climate to the center of culture, ethics, and public life” is the core mission of the Climate Museum Launch Project.
The challenge of this project will be unpack the complex set of issues surrounding climate change, identify the public who want or need to learn more about what our changing climate means to them, and to develop architectural projects that will demonstrate resiliency, innovation, urgency and common purpose in understanding the role climate plays in our lives.
The proposed Climate Change Museum aims to create space that expresses the complexity of the issues of climate change meanwhile communicating to the visitor about the relationship among different topics through its spatial connection. The design goal is achieved through an unconventional typology that allows separated spaces to be physically or visually connected by a core space.

Museum
The museum proposal, designed in collaboration with Evelyn Zeng, is about creating
a series of moments that can frame the relationships among different factors lead to Climage Change.
We want to create a space that can imply the complexity of the issue meanwhile communicating with the audience through its spatial experience.
The circulation paths acted as docents for visitors and revealed the complexity of climate change. In this case, my museum proposal became a manifesto of my critique to the present oversimplified approach to the issue of climate change; different exhibit rooms are arranged in juxtaposition to each other around a central circulation core, breaking through the traditional linear and hierarchical spatial arrangement via the the strategy of view framing, moments of the concurrence and divergence of different exhibit spaces are captured.
