Xerolithi

A house that blends in its natural environment. Steep rough slopes, scattered thorny bushes, along with short stone retaining walls, locally called xerolithies created a long time ago for land cultivation purposes. The main facades of the house are formed as xerolithies. These walls that have a lightness like ribbons in the air and seem to be moving gently closer and away of the slope and independently from one another, forming living spaces in between them. The roof covered with dirt and vegetation imitates the natural landscape, making the house almost invisible.

Ho-House

The space, created by folding white, thin slabs that have lost their mass and texture, shifts the axis of sensory interpretation from figurative to abstract and deepens understanding of formless events. The inside-their-side continuity facilitated by the building, and the abstract phenomena that result from its relationship with nature, make them aware that the basis of both is the same and shorten the distance between the two at once, merging them into one.

The Lake Art

The appearance of the reconstructed building has a subversive and innovative performance. Surrounding the original three container-style iron-clad buildings, the basic geometrical structures are interspersed and cut in two-dimensional and three-dimensional spaces, forming shapes scattered in the space, and thus dividing different areas. The functional attributes of space are very rich. From the reception area, the salon area to the exhibition area, the flow of movement is immersive and coherent, but it dramatically increases the possibility of five senses.

The Osmanthus Grace

The project is located in the Zhaobukou plot of Yuhua District, Shijiazhuang City. As the core of CLD in Shijiazhuang, the project is closely next to the sports park on the west and enjoys rich high-end resources of the city. The designers hoped to extend the natural resources into the side and further connected the urban park and residences, forming a green corridor. It serves as a sales center at the early stage and will be transformed into a public service facility.

Phoenix Mansion

The entrance is in the unremarkable corner. With a long overhang, the horizontal transitional space presents an implicit feeling, inviting visitors to enter the space. At the front yard, landscape elements refer to classic Chinese gardens and get reorganized based on local conditions. Detailed parts reveal a tranquil atmosphere. The team tried to build a quiet space from multiple dimensions from the veranda to the dynamic metal art installation. Here, residents can get away from the noise city.
