Tanjing

The project is located in Taijiang District, Fuzhou City. It resides to the north of the historic Guangming Port and next to the Three Lanes and Seven Alleys Historical Area. The project preserves the two ancient banyan trees on the site, creating a series of spaces and inner streets around them and evoking the traditional Fuzhou lifestyle that exists "under the bayan tree, next to the river". Green living, Dragon boat museum, Art exhibitions, Sales center, Leisure, and Entertainment are all united within the Tanjing Sales center, bringing a new vibrancy to the neighborhood.

The exterior is defined by two massive, offset concrete volumes with a board-formed finish. On the main level, a small courtyard and a large garden terrace on the south side serve as intermediary zones where the residents can enjoy the distinctive outdoor environment of a ranch-style home while maintaining privacy. The clients purchased the tiered, irregularly shaped lot as a place to spend meaningful time as a family.

SHINE ESTUARY

Boasting a full view of the river and unlimited potential, the project is located in the Oujiang New District of Wenzhou, an area still in its early stages of development. The relationship between the architectural space and its visitors is always changing. The building mass extends through various spatial rhythms and possibilities, preparing the space for even more prospects in the future. The twisting shape of the building partners up with the ripples of the river and together, they dance along the wind.

Hill House

The harmonious integration into the surrounding landscape guided the formal and functional choices of this project, designed to accommodate the morphology and topography of the site, that takes quality and ecological commitment into high consideration. The two housing units, that share the common service areas on the ground floor, propose different ways of living, as they are developed differently to the local countryside. Materials and the dry-type construction, are in line with the eco-sustainable design to respond to the desire to live in a house in the green without wasting natural space.

The Inhabited Roccolo

Inhabited Roccolo is a contemporary reinterpretation of a "roccolo", a typical bird catcher hut of the Lombard Alps landscape that combines tradition with a contemporary look to the future. It was designed to escape the stress of the urban world, where aesthetic ideals are sublimated in the modesty of simple forms and natural materials, while leaving complexity to nature around it, a vertical place that connects the earth and the cosmos through the soul. The morphological discontinuity of the fronts, made up of heterogeneous volumes and different materials, characterise the project.

Didar

With the aim of leaving the existing structure as much intact as possible, this café in Teheran was placed in the former pool of the building. Its name, Didar, which is the Persian word for visit, implies the desire to offer visitors a close encounter with nature. That is why the entire café is enclosed with glass; to connect inside and outside and make the surrounding environment part of the overall design. In order to increase the impression of being outdoors, the height of the elegant, modern furniture is level with the edge of the pool.
