Guiyang New Community Park

The project provides a novel solution for the community park in Guiyang, China. A resilient design with a minimum of intervention that respects the site and highlights the local karst geography and former land use. As a result, the community park successfully integrates a program of leisure activities for the public with the preservation of karst landscape formations on the one hand and a waterfront design to support the dynamic hydrological processes on the other.

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.
