Guangzhou Julong Bay

Guangzhou Julong Bay is a city planning exhibition center created from four brick warehouses built in the 1950s on the west bank of the Pearl River. The original structures and materials were retained as far as possible, and customized imitation clay bricks were used in the new parts. A large span steel frame with a sloping glass curtain wall covers the parallel halls and joins them into one flexible interior. The triangular roof follows the angle of the old sloping ceilings. The steel frame extends to the ground on both sides, forming a corridor open to the riverside landscape.

Circle

The Circle is an international school in Hefei Airport New Area, China. The school includes a kindergarten, a primary school and a middle school, with ninety classes across a building area of 40,000 square meters. In response to the park and lake view to the west and the oval shape of the site, the building opens toward the park in an embracing gesture. School life is arranged around a central sports field, so most rooms gain a wide view. The kindergarten stands as a separate building. Highly modular construction limits the number of module types and shortens building time.

Tension Instrument

The project is based on the study of architecture and music. The design focuses on how to take inspiration from intangible music and present it in tangible architectural space. The design ultimately combines the two through "tension", a force that is prevalent in both architecture and music. The concert hall is an orchestration of walls, balconies, and acoustic panels, which are developed from a unique architectural prototype by different scales and tectonics. The dramatic contrast of old and new creates a new cultural landmark for Prague.

RO54

RO54 is a single-family house built on a hillside site in Los Angeles. The house uses a split-level layout with staggered floor plates arranged around a central void. Central bridging stairs bring sunlight and visual connection to the deepest level, which reduces the physical and psychological distance between rooms. The outer shell was CNC milled from a digital design and follows streamlined automotive forms. A 16 foot cantilever on the second floor forms an entrance canopy. Open floor plans allow furniture to be rearranged.

Living The Noom

Living The Noom is a residential complex designed around three principles: wellness living, sustainability and flexible living. The complex consists of three buildings of five stories each, built with a concrete structure and an independent bamboo facade. Every floor is an open space that can be arranged in several apartment layouts with one, two or three bedrooms. Bioclimatic strategies include rainwater harvesting, greywater treatment, green roofs and solar panels. The buildings occupy 30 percent of the lot, so much of the existing vegetation is preserved.
