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.

Anji Creative Design Center

Anji Creative Design Center is a shared work and cultural building designed to connect urban and rural life. The center holds public services, co-working areas, an innovation lab, a library and a cafe. Spaces of different sizes are spread across the undulating site and linked by raised corridors and inner courtyards. Slim steel columns and glass curtain walls support vaulted roofs covered with planting, so the building blends into the surrounding tea fields. The design offers digital nomads and creators room for work, study, exhibitions and seminars.

249 Design Hotel

The 249 Design Hotel is a hospitality building in the tourist city of Gramado, Brazil. The project is a retrofit that expanded an existing inn of 318 square meters and 10 suites into a building of 1106 square meters and 31 suites. A new reception volume and a new section of suites with balconies were added. Steel was selected as the main structure because it allowed faster construction. Wood and stone cover the facades, following local building traditions. The design creates a respectful dialogue between contemporary and German vernacular architecture.

Jenga

Jenga is a two-story public building located at the entrance of a residential community. The building covers 1200 square meters and holds four functions: commercial space, a community lobby, a property management office, and an equipment room. The irregular and limited site is addressed by stacking and reorganizing these four areas like toy building blocks. A steel structure forms the main body, while thin aluminum panels with rounded curves cover the outer walls. Light strips and glass surfaces reveal the interior functions.

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.

The mirrored finish of the hexagonal panels creates a canvas of reflected light and forms.
