Puhpowee comes from the Potawatomi tribe of the Indian nation, meaning the power to make mushrooms sprout quietly from the ground overnight in an empty land. In 1637, the English took possession of the land, called the Tidal Basin, from the natives, and in 1788, it became the "Connecticut" of the United States. Since then, Conde Dig has enjoyed rapid growth, ranking as the state with the highest per capita GDP in the United States as of 2005...... However, out of the 3.596 million people on the continent, only 5,000-7,000 indigenous people remain. We decided to use frozen buildings to sing this buried history... The building consists of a promenade and a circular central courtyard, the former passing through the latter, expressing on the one hand the rebellion of the protest musicians and the conflict between the conservative society, and on the other hand the fusion of protest emotions and music. It can be said that Puhpowee is a solidified movement. We take the pool as the preface, the corridor and the central courtyard as the melody, and the tree at the end as the final chapter, forming a trilogy. Music, like architecture, has rhythm, proportion and structure, and architecture evokes an emotional response similar to listening to music. The people who walk through here become the leaping notes, and together they form a beautiful symphony. We believe that the Indian spirits will still be singing this forgotten history on this land... This pure building is both a monument and a place for them to live. Everything grows in no man's land and the soul of the rain plays the music of the revolution.
