Quad House

With advanced and underlying design conception and construction approach, the building, once a dangerous one, was reconstructed to recall the attractive moment of the ancient quadrangle in the center of Beijing. Considering the difficulty of rebuilding and how to balance the style of the bar with privacy and respond to the whole context, the modern function was accentuated to blend into the historic surroundings to deal with the three paradoxes —— new and old, low-key and high-end, market and comfort.

In this case, the shortcomings of the base are similar courtyard structures, the courtyards that are seen at a glance, and the current state of the house being demolished. Designers used the folding wall and the moon door to change the internal space axis, and organized the new landscape order with small bridges, waterways and stacked mountains. They designed and directed the stack of red rock mountain. Several tea rooms with different views and feelings were made in less than 200 square meters.

Using wood as the main constructive element, the house displaces its two levels in section, generating a glazed roof to integrate with the context and allow natural light to enter. The double height space articulates that relationship between the ground floor, the upper floor and the landscape. A metal roof over the skylight flies, protecting it from the incidence of the western sun and formally rebuilding the volume, framing the vision of the natural environment. The program is articulated by locating public uses on the ground floor and private uses on the upper floor.

Mermaid Town

The continuous undulating roof of the tourist distribution center is not only a tribute to the common saddle mountain wall in the east of Fujian, but also a unity of order among the scattered six small units. However, under the unified roof, the cultural and sports activity center has a number of small blocks, which looks like a miniature city. The boundary of the two buildings is the circular and square ambulatory, which is not only the designer's adaptation and response to Zhou Ning's rainy and cold climate, but also the non-verbal expression of the "fish sacrifice" culture.
