House RG

A house with an unusual design. Large aluminum brise soleil form a contemporary facade, a dynamic composition with lots of movement. The climate of the region is characterized by high temperatures. These brise soleil protect the internal environments from intense luminosity and heat during the day. The integration of exterior and interior is made by big glass panels. Stunning environments and double height ceilings also characterize the architecture of this project. Environmentally friendly solutions such as photovoltaic panels for solar energy were used to give the finishing touches.

Dayou Aristo

In order to make the land plot develop as a landmark building, the Life Hall must be quite forward-looking and architecturally expressive, not only to fully reflect the cultural and historical connotations of the city, but also to display a modern, dynamic urban intent and outlook.

Large-area colored glazing glass combined with champagne metal is adopted, not only avoiding people's line of sight from directly looking through, but also creating a pure and elegant artistic conception.

Dongguan CBD Parking Building

The inspiration of this project combines both the unique meandering water bodies of Dongguan and the unique core location of the site, the design team proposing to extend the two major streets as flowing, water like ribbons, in order to reform the chaotic existing parking conditions in the vicinity and establish the spatial and facade languages for the new garage building. Using the "infinitely flowing loops" to organize the traffic circulation, two independent yet equally dynamic curves spiral up and intertwine, forming an architectural image as an urban sculpture.
