Crestridge Residence

Crestridge Residence is a single family home created through the full remodel of a dated tract house. The new layout stays within the existing footprint of 2100 square feet on a down-sloping lot of 21,000 square feet. A vertical louver system in natural iron wood with black oxide hardware gives privacy along the front elevation. A vaulted great room and large windows open to a view of the Los Angeles basin. Two private wings at opposite ends of the house allow family and guests to live together with privacy.

Fengqi Chang’an Aesthetics Museum

Fengqi Chang'an Aesthetics Museum is an exhibition building in Chang'an, China. The design is inspired by nature, traditional Chinese gardens and landscape paintings. Functional volumes of different sizes are combined with courtyards and verandas to form a continuous and flexible garden space. Each courtyard serves a purpose, such as display, communication, meditation or activities, and crisscrossed corridors link them. Glass surfaces, wide door leaves and large overhanging eaves create an orderly frame. The building covers 6,400 square meters on a 16,000 square meter site.

International School of Debrecen

Gearing

The conceptual circle shape of the International School of Debrecen symbolizes protection, unity and community. The different functions appear like connected gears, pavilions on a string arranged on an arc. The fragmentation of space creates a variety of community areas between the classrooms. The novel space experience and the constant presence of nature help students in creative thinking and manifesting their ideas. The pathways leading to the offsite educational gardens and the forest complete the circle concept creating an exciting transition between the built and natural environment.

The Landmark

The Landmark is a mixed-use skyscraper designed for St Leonards in Sydney, Australia. Retail space is placed at ground level, above which are four floors of commercial offices and about 480 apartments with one, two or three bedrooms. A pool and a gym are included. The tall and slender form is oriented to offer views in all directions and lets shadows move quickly, which reduces overshadowing of nearby homes. Prefabricated and modular elements shorten construction. Shared vertical and horizontal gardens are placed on every level.
