One Villa

Su Shi once praised the natural sceneries of Jiangxi Province. One Villa redefines modern lifestyle by offering ideal secluded living spaces, making residences as ideal as the Peach Blossom Shangri-la depicted by Tao Yuanming, an ancient Chinese poet, and as the Utopia by Plato. In the Song Dynasty, residences in Jiujiang enjoyed beautiful Jiangnan-featured natural landscapes. It’s a life pleasure to travel the famous Lushan and appreciate ancient ink wash works. One Villa aims to bring in mountains and rivers and reproduces the classical architectural charm unique to the Song Dynasty.

Kujdane

Kujdane retains the old while blending it with the new. It still has that A-frame silhouette like a traditional cabin in the woods but takes a step closer and sees that the structure has been tweaked with modern architectural elements. Wood is of course the element of choice to evoke that warm, cozy, cabin vibe and is complimented with cool-toned interior details for balance. The cabin is elevated by the sloping A-frame sides which makes it look like it is effortlessly hovering above ground level without visible stilts or pillars.

Gilak

In the project, an attempt has been made to use the climatic techniques of temperate and humid regions in Iran; which control humidity, wind, and radiation and bring the standard of living closer to the comfort range. These items work best in the form of a nine-square geometric technique and are based on the geometry of Iranian architecture and Iranian carpets. The main mass of the building is formed around the central axis, which is designed as an integrated void and on all floors, there are openings to it from all four directions, which cause airflow and moisture to escape from inside.

Bamboo Pavilion

The Bamboo Pavilion is a public renovation project that is designed to subvert the perception of a typical public bathroom in Macau, which is dirty, wet and smelly. The original facility was an enclosed building setting apart from the natural surroundings. The Bamboo Pavilion, a new design, is built on top of the existing structure and foundation. The idea is to reconnect the broken link between culture, human and nature in a public facility by reorganizing the plan to enhance functionalities and by applying bamboo-like construction tectonics to correspond with its natural surroundings.
