Casa Acqua

Casa Acqua was designed in the same way as the first Roman dwellings. Those discovered under the petrified lavas of the Vesuvius volcano that had an O-shaped floor plan and an inner courtyard; balconies around the rooms that allowed the visual integration of spaces. This typology was exploded and adapted to current times and, above all, rethought for this real moment of pandemic, for the Casa Acqua project in Brazil. The project has four modules with an internal patio. This individualized implantation, surrounded by water mirrors, elements of aesthetic interest, brings privacy and comfort.

This project is a retirement residence owned by a retiree who has been retired from a complex business environment but still remains with a pure living mindset. The designer chooses the lotus which symbolizes purity as it is out of the silt but not imbrued to reflect the life outlook of the residence owner while deploying architectural elements to portray the overlapping petals of lotus and the parallel pattern on the petals. On top of that, the matt-finished concrete grey symbolizing a sense of serenity also a humble life.

Rozna is the only fine-dining Omani restaurant in Oman that is modeled like an ancient fort. From the exterior, it looks like a fort, and inside with a spacious central courtyard, it is reminiscent of a castle. The bright center courtyard is the main dining area that can accommodate more than 100 guests at a time. Additionally, there are 30 private rooms including 2 VIP rooms for those families and groups that prefer privacy. These rooms cater to groups large and small, in traditional settings.

The Gaiety

The project adopts three-dimensional folding design techniques, creates simple and clean lines appearing like distant mountains, and outlines a sculpture-like building with exquisite and delicate texture and a sense of purity. The combination of stone and frameless ultra-clear glass highlights the building's minimalist, elegant and luxury quality, well fitting people's demand for a low-key and understated luxury life. The demonstration area adopts a semi-open layout, which gives the main building a wider view and better expresses the integration among people, architecture, and nature.

Cetacean

As a temporary and yet to be completed project. The cultural building is expected to be in Iceland as a travel destination. The bionic form of the whale tail and skeleton became the language of this building. The whole building is eco-friendly. All materials can be recycled and use natural light. 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.
