At the intersection of memory, identity, and belonging, this animation tells the story of a Vietnamese immigrant single-parent family, inspired by the creator’s experience as a second-generation immigrant. Through the intimate lens of a mother–daughter relationship, it explores the quiet emotional distance shaped by cultural displacement and social labeling. As everyday misunderstandings accumulate, the daughter uncovers a box of memories and her mother’s diary. These fragments of the past reveal untold stories of migration, sacrifice, and resilience, allowing her to recognize the depth of her mother’s unspoken love. This awakening leads to a moment of honest confrontation and reconciliation, culminating in their shared decision to return to Vietnam and reconnect with their cultural roots. Rendered in a lineless visual style with warm, crayon-like textures, the animation creates a gentle, tactile atmosphere that softens its complex themes. By articulating the subtle unease of cultural integration, the work invites reflection on multicultural identity, intergenerational understanding, and the broader experiences of Southeast Asian immigrant families.

Addressing underutilized school facilities from declining birth rates, Jin-Xue Elementary School is transformed into an intergenerational co-living habitat. Through spatial subtraction to break boundaries and an additive strategy of "4+1 cluster housing," the design manifests a framework for diverse generational roles. Intentional circulation paths foster spontaneous everyday encounters, evolving the century-old campus into a sustainable settlement that connects people with nature while reconstructing warm urban neighborhood ties.
