Rice Wine Town Reception Room

Rice Wine Town Reception Room is a three-storey building in Shaoxing, China, built on the site of a former rice wine workshop. The original red brick chimney is preserved. A cubic module of 4.8 by 4.8 by 4.8 metres orders the plan and the facade, so the interior can serve as a rice wine exhibition and experience hall, a bookstore and later as restaurants. A steel frame structure was chosen for speed and durability. The facade is clad with recycled bamboo shaped into L-shaped members in a factory. The stacked volumes form roof terraces facing the Dashu River.

Banyan Tree Xianju Resort

Banyan Tree Xianju Resort is a hotel located at the east foot of Wujia Mountain in Xianju County, Zhejiang Province, China. The design follows the complex terrain of the former Lishan Village site. Public areas are placed in the lower zone beside an old stone wall, and guest rooms are set above them in the form of a small settlement. An all-glass facade opens the public spaces to the surrounding landscape. Stones from the old parapet of the former village were reused as a finish for the base. The buildings combine traditional mountain village forms with modern elements.

Folding Garden

Folding Garden is a community center located in Beijing, China. A continuous wall crosses the site in a linear and zigzag path, shaping the garden and also serving as the supporting structure. The result is a coherent indoor space without columns. A corridor running from north to south links three courtyards along a central axis. The building is covered with flowing brickwork that recalls a mountain in a forest. Sunken courtyards add usable space on a compact plot. The total land area is 6421 square meters and the construction area is 1403 square meters.

Lijiang Taohuayuan

Lijiang Taohuayuan is a residential complex in Lijiang, Yunnan Province, China. The site lies on the bank of Wenbi Sea, close to Wenbi Mountain. The buildings rise gradually from the lake in the west towards the east, so that more homes gain a view of the water. The plan includes two-story compounds, four-story courtyards, duplexes, eight-story condominiums and a town center with commercial services. The facades apply local Naxi elements, such as wooden lattice windows, with modern methods. Gardens are placed around single buildings to bring the landscape indoors.

Hongzhou Academy

Hongzhou Academy is a sales center located in the central area of Nanchang County, China. The building holds spaces for negotiation, handwork, children's activities and display. Two blocks face the urban roads at an intersection, and their offset position forms the entrance square. The design refers to ancient Chinese architecture. Aluminium sheets are joined with buckles, creating a brick-like texture on the facade. A smooth curved surface outlines the roof and recalls traditional eaves. Large glass areas and a high atrium give the interior an open and comfortable character.
