Lulu Ville

Lulu Villa is a private residence located in Las Terrenas. The house covers 850 square meters of construction on a plot of 2,492 square meters. The design is composed of three intersecting volumes, one of which has two levels. The first level holds the social areas, with large galleries open to the exterior, and the guest rooms. The second level holds the bedrooms and a family room, linked by an open corridor. Concrete in its natural state marks the facades. The entrance uses aluminum profiles with a wood finish, resistant to sea salt and spaced to let daylight enter.

Sunac Chongqing A One

A One is a mixed use retail building in Chongqing, China. The complex stands in the financial district of Jiangbeizui and is surrounded on three sides by parks, with a 270 degree view of the river. The design follows the idea of a city in the clouds, where the podium forms the cloud layer. Horizontal metal lines, ultra clear glass and stripes of colored glazed glass create changing light, shadows and reflections through the day. A large overhang shapes the northern and eastern sides. A green courtyard links the podium with the towers.

Yuexiu Hanyang Starry Winking

Yuexiu Hanyang Starry Winking is a sales center designed to be converted into a kindergarten after the selling period ends. The building is located in the Hanyang District of Wuhan, China, near the Yangtze River. The design concept draws on the natural landscape and the water culture of Wuhan. A modular facade with rhythmic changes suits the units of the future kindergarten and forms a playful surface. Prefabricated glass-fiber reinforced cement panels were assembled on site to reduce visible joints and ease cleaning. Water flows from the building into the surrounding landscape.

Imperial Mansion

Imperial Mansion is a community center located in the city center of Yuhuan, Taizhou, China. The form of the building is derived from the surrounding coastal landscape. Clean geometric outlines and folded roof edges make the heavy structure appear light. The facade is made of large glass walls and silvery aluminum plates in various shades of gray. A series of wide entrance steps forms an open urban plaza and guides visitors to a second-floor terrace. The building serves as a display center in the first phase and as a commercial district later.
