Starry Town

Starry Town of Fuxian Lake is a visitor center and public space built on the bank of Fuxian Lake. The building is shaped like a white leaf resting quietly beside the water. Each leaf roof covers about 1200 square meters and provides the shading required by the local climate. Two flowing white walls of aluminum plates connect the spaces, together with a curved ribbon bridge that extends 145 meters. The canopy over the entrance is formed from triangular mirror-finished stainless steel panels. Wide glazing on the ground floor keeps the lake visible from the site.

Nankai LiangJiang

Nankai LiangJiang is a secondary school built in Chongqing, China. The campus is planned around a ten-minute idea, so students can move between spaces within ten minutes during a compact daily schedule. The main building is a circular structure measuring 200 meters in diameter and is made with a pre-fabricated steel structure. Classrooms, offices, a library, a science hall, a theatre and a school museum are arranged within. Perforated aluminum panels reduce glare, and a parametric steel lattice forms an undulating roof that moderates sunlight and rain.

House On Pipes

A grid of slender steel pipes laid out in a staggered manner minimise the building footprint while providing the rigidity and stability to hoist the living space above this. In keeping with the minimalist icon approach, this farmhouse has been designed within the framework of the existing trees to reduce the internal heat gain. This has been further aided by the intentional staggering of the Fly ash blocks on the facade with the resultant void and shadow naturally cooling the building. Elevating the house also ensured that the Landscape was uninterrupted and the views were unrestricted.

Best in Black

Best in Black is a project that aims to create a new kind of residential building. The interior design of the apartments represents industrial design meeting Mexican architecture, the materials selected like wood, concrete and marble give the space a warm look and the palate of colors white and black represent the idea of the facade of the interior design. The four facades are clearly inspired in a random placement of the Tetris game shapes forming the walls and windows of the building, creating lighted atmospheres that generate comfort for the user.

Langting Mansion

Yuzhou Langting Mansion is an exhibition center built in Qingdao, China. The design takes its inspiration from layered mountains, water and clouds. The roof follows the shape of rising and falling peaks and is clad in dark grey metal verge boards. The central part uses antique copper drawn aluminium squares to suggest multiple ranges of hills, set against a glass curtain wall. A mirror water pool connects the building with the site and completes the view. The planning follows the ritual order, the central axis and the courtyards of the ancient city of Jimo.
