This plan is mainly about my bedroom and living room. In order to make the living room less empty, I placed a single sofa on the diagonal of the big sofa. Also to make this place full of vibrant and full of vitality, I bought a lot of plants to decorate. In my bedroom, tables, beds and sofas arranged in diagonal lines, and my favourite thing such as guitar, basketball and skateboard were put in the rest place. The furniture in the kitchen and bathroom is original, I bought a coffee machine in the kitchen to make espresso everyday.
The elevation is about my living room, we can see many decoration things on the wall, such as Chinese painting near the kitchen. Also use bookcase as a exhibition space for my toy plane, toy car and many plants. Because the entrance space is very narrow, and the space gradually widens as it extends inside, so there is more stuff inside than the entrance space, it’s a liner decrease.
From the diagram we can see my daily route in the house when I get into my apartment, sometimes go straight to the sofa, sometimes go to the kitchen to grab some food or direct to the bedroom. The yellow sector part is the sunshine area.
The ant map is about the bookcase, which is bought by my grandparents and still accompany with my family. The book on the shelf keep changing with the times, some books has been eliminate by the times, but the classic books have been preserved. So time can help us to choose which book is classic. Also, the role of the bookcase has changed, it used just as a place to store book, but it gradually become a decoration in my room and become mutifunction.
This is the train station of Sapporo, the capital of Hokkaido, Japan. It is located in the heart of the city and is surrounded by large shopping malls, hotels, upscale restaurants, and various entertainment facilities. Additionally, there are office buildings and government institutions in the vicinity. Not far from the station's north square is Hokkaido University, making everything convenient in this area.
From this aerial view, you can see the main functional areas of this building, as well as its station front square and the surrounding blocks. The building is primarily composed of four parts. The two sections on the left and right sides, each seven stories high, house shopping malls and various entertainment venues. The central area is the main body of the train station, consisting of waiting rooms, ticket counters, and some bookstores and cafes. It is well connected to the two shopping malls on the sides. The highest part on the right is JR Tower, an integrated office, commercial, hotel, and entertainment complex, also serving as a landmark of this city.
This aerial view allows us to observe the functional layout of the main building, as well as the flow of people on the station front square. At the same time, it showcases the rationalistic style of the building's facade, which harmoniously complements the surrounding architecture. As most of the buildings nearby have a similar facade style, this landmark building seamlessly integrates into the cityscape while serving as a prominent landmark.
The ANT MAP uses this JR Station as a starting point to contemplate the design approach of Transit-Oriented Development (TOD). Japan is one of the best countries in practicing TOD, with many cities like Tokyo, Sapporo, and Osaka adopting TOD-led urban design. This approach centers around transportation hubs, establishing a complex and efficient network of organized connections around them. It also incorporates surrounding amenities such as entertainment, commercial, office, and residential areas, developing the area comprehensively from the ground, above, and underground. This integrated development aims to enhance overall urban efficiency and increase the value of the location.
