ORGANIC CITY ORGANIC CITY The forming of urban context is based on the existing territory, relatively not changing, and human activities, changing all the time. Due to the non-stop changing of human activities, the urban context keeps been built-demolish-rebuild, in which negotiation happens. Like the organic tissue, growth-perishLike the organic tissue, growth-perish-rebirth.rebirth.

In the initial forming of a city, people gathering by their habitual behavior, which is collective ideas. It grows like an organic tissue. However, in the devel-opment of urbanism, it was replaced by one idea from a certain designer. They always looks so perfect but lakes tolerance and changeability, like a machine. So, it happens all the time a grid system or an omit system is broken in somewhere and form another context, in which the city get release and breath. Therefore, I would argue that an ideal urban design should be coordinating but still keeps an ideal urban design should be coordinating but still keeps flexibilityflexibility for the users to adapt for themselves.

In the past, the urban forming were driven by politics and economy, like Rome and Paris. Nowadays, it is driven most by economy, like New York and Barce-lona. In terms of economy, I think the presentation of the practical urban urban layout can be derived from shopping fieldlayout can be derived from shopping fields.s. A well function shopping field must contain coordinating and flexibility at once, which is exact an ideal city should have. Moreover, a shopping field in certain area directly represents the local habitual behavior.

Like the organic tissue, growth-perish-rebirth.

an ideal urban design should be coordinating but still keeps flexibility

urban layout can be derived from shopping fields.

In order to attend this goal, I will use aggregation which is from Peter Trum-mer's studio as the driving technique to form the buildings. In this technique, each room is seen as a unit for aggregating.each room is seen as a unit for aggregating. Besides, I will combine the trans-formation which is from Hernan's studio to do the accommodating and articu-lation.

In summary, I'm going to develop a new urban fabric like an organic tissue, followed by a certain rule but still keeps tolerance and changeability. It is an urban context keeps growing and any particular field could be modified to fit the activities.

Method of Inquiry -Urban Fabric: The site context is in the connecting area of two grid systems in different dimension. The investigation of shopping fields will be the ini-tial layout to deal with the negotiation of these two grids and comes up with a new urban fabric.-Architecture Morphosis: In terms of the form of the building, I’m trying to combine the aggregation from Peter Trummer and the transformation from Hernan Diaz Alonzo. The aggregation contains urban rules but lake of articulation in terms of architecture. In the other hand, the transformation has fluent space and articulation but not developed in the urban rule. So, the task is to do the aggregation in the urban rules and extend it to the transfor-mation.

Evaluation Criteria-Urban Fabric: The urban fabric of this project should represents two fea-tures. For one is the integration of the original grid system and the new field system. Meanwhile, the urban fabric should contains the benefit of these two systems, negotiable and coordinated. For another, it should be derived from the shopping fields and apply to the project in adapting to different program and context.-Architecture Morphosis: The figure of the architecture should represents the move of aggregation and transformation as one technique. The tech-nique should demonstrate how it forms a new relationship of infrastructure and buildings in terms of urbanism.
