Firstbank of Nigeria

Firstbank of Nigeria is a corporate headquarters tower located in Eko Atlantic City, Lagos. The glass clad building rises 252 meters and offers 115,000 square meters of built-up area on a reclaimed shoreline. The slender form was shaped through wind studies and solar analysis to limit heat gain. High performance glazing and external shading create a climate responsive envelope suited to the tropical coastal setting. Smart building systems regulate light, temperature and energy use. Flexible office layouts and shared amenities support changing business needs.

Symbiosis Cat House

Symbiosis Cat House is a residential building designed for a narrow urban site. The four floor house allows people with allergies and cats to live together. A vertical zoning strategy separates animal areas from human areas. A central atrium drives a passive stack effect that removes allergens without heavy mechanical systems. Dedicated exhaust units serve the litter zones. Uncoated concrete, fair faced brickwork and perforated metal treads limit dust and chemical emissions. A cat tower rises beside the stairs, keeping the household visually connected.

Large glazed surfaces ensure natural light and ventilation, while sliding panels introduce flexibility between open and enclosed spaces. Natural materials, integrated leisure areas and a fluid L shaped layout create a balanced environment focused on comfort, functionality and everyday living.

Dissolving Corbin Building

Dissolving Corbin Building is a mixed-use building design based on the adaptive reuse of the historic Corbin Building in Lower Manhattan, New York. The vertical complex rises about 55 metres over 15 floors and combines housing, communal kitchens, a public food court, a food market and vertical farming. A new steel frame carries prefabricated modular units with articulated brick and terracotta cladding. Rooftop gardens and a rooftop bar above the adjacent Fulton Center extend a public route that begins at the subway. Shared cooking and dining are treated as community spaces.

Art Omi Deconstructive Utopia

Art Omi Deconstructive Utopia is a design gallery and exhibition building in the Hudson Valley, covering about 12000 square feet. The curved concrete shell was shaped by balloon deflation studies and cast with CNC-milled formwork for precise curvature. At the center, a spherical void is preserved as the main exhibition space and public entrance. A path runs from west to east, flanked by workshops and ending at the lake. Suspended studios use lightweight steel frames clad in wood. Warm timber panels line the interiors and improve acoustics.
