Aida Sekkei Precut

Aida Sekkei's new factory plan focuses on wood precutting. Its concept is all about creating an architecture which embodies the series of timber processing. It includes a floating, glass enclosed walkway approximately 100 meters long inside the factory, designed for visitors to closely observe the entire pre-cutting process. The office building features large spaces with trusses made from feather edge materials, commonly used as sub materials in wooden houses. The design integrates all elements to create a showcase factory, emphasizing visibility and aesthetic appeal in every aspect.

CC House

A serene retreat nestled in nature's embrace, this single story four bed house in northern Kerala, near Wayanad, is a harmonious blend of simplicity and uniqueness. Designed to respect its surroundings, the dark textured building features asymmetric c shapes mirroring a central tree. An open courtyard and wide sit out seamlessly integrate indoors with outdoors, while a minimalist interior showcases thoughtful furniture design. Rubble masonry and glass windows with wooden frames create a rustic yet modern aesthetic, echoing the tranquility of its natural setting.

249 Design Hotel

The 249 Design Hotel is a retrofit project inspired in the German vernacular architecture. Located in the tourist city of Gramado, the result was a project that creates a dialogue between contemporary and existing architecture in a respectful and harmonious way, using materiality as an agent of integration of everything. Steel, wood and stone are the connectors that unite the whole and bring the external area into the interior of the building. The north of the project was that we made all decisions thinking in the integration between the design and the hotel guests.

Jenga

The project is a public building at the entrance of a residential community, occupying 1200 square meters and housing four main functions: commercial space, community lobby, property management office, and equipment room. However, space constraints arise due to setbacks from adjacent buildings and redline restrictions. Drawing inspiration from the childhood game Jenga, the design integrates each functional area like interconnected blocks, resulting in a cohesive and unified exterior façade, enhancing overall unity.

Woyun Platform

The Woyun Platform is the entrance exhibition center of the Giant Panda National Park, taking the geological features of local bamboo forests, mists, and glacier debris as architectural imageries. The bamboo forest on the ground floor is used as a rural living room, which is a feedback to the surrounding villages; the suspended mists in the middle is used as a cultural display space; the debris on the top is used as a leisure space.
