Dan Mo

Dan Mo is a retirement residence completed in February 2020 in Taichung, covering 440 square meters. The lotus flower inspired the design, and the architectural elements portray the parallel pattern seen on lotus petals. Mortar is applied to the surfaces with a special technique that makes the material tougher, denser and resistant to wind and rain. Apart from external tile cladding used to channel water, no further surface treatment is applied, which reduces material consumption. A circular path on the first floor links the function spaces and supports family interaction.

The Gaiety

The Gaiety is a sales center built in Foshan, Guangdong Province, China. The main building covers 500 square meters and is shaped by three-dimensional folding techniques. The roof is folded so that the northwest corner drops to form a double-sloping roof, while the northeast corner rises to mark the hall entrance. Stone curtain walls are combined with glass curtain walls, and the roof marble is beveled so that roof and wall read as one surface. A water surface reflects the building, and the divided blocks form a courtyard that separates two functions.

Not only will the designers be creating architecture in yet another remarkable landscape, but they will also take part in increasing the understanding of whales and the preservation of marine life.

The search for regional features characteristic for single-family housing led designer to discover forgotten traditional eaves houses of the region. The design was created in order to accommodate a 4-person family space, located on the unusual long and narrow plot of irregular shape. There were separated as many as five different levels, legally falling within the definition of a two-story building.
