East China Grand Canyon Visitor Center

East China Grand Canyon Visitor Center is a multifunctional building in Taishun County, Wenzhou, China. The S-shaped form connects a folk culture center, a tourism reception center, an exhibition hall, a digital nomad office and a hotel. A 500-meter scenic ramp rises from the ground to the highest point of the roof, following the existing terrain to limit earthwork. The layout encloses two courtyards, where rockeries and ponds are built with local Taishun stone. Green roofs planted with native species lower the roof temperature in summer. The roof is open to nearby communities.

Wooden Axis Large Roof

The site is located along an arterial road connecting the city center and the city center, with an urban planning road to the south that is scheduled to be widened, and future development is expected. In planning a new regional medical center, we were conscious of creating a space that is distinctly different from commercialistic road service architecture, with the warmth of wood and a gentle welcome for patients The three buildings are connected by a wooden Sunoko design code.

Villa A

The villa overlooks a great view of the Pacific Ocean, not far from the town of Hayama, the birthplace of Japan's yachting culture. The villa's design is a sculptural form that is appropriate for this spectacular natural setting, with a vaulted roof and a series of arches that symbolize the image of the white, rippling sea. The curved arches of the CLT (cross-laminated timber) roof give a sense of spaciousness to the interior. The result is a villa that perfectly suits a laid-back lifestyle and provides a deep connection to the blue waters at its doorstep.

Serpentine House

The architectural gesture of a long L shaped flowing form along the two main edges of the site seeks to create a threshold between the surrounding scenery and the resulting negative, a courtyard of similar scale to the building footprint. This fluid form narrows and widens to create tension with the enclosed courtyard but is rigid along the perimeter of the site, forming a well-defined edge. The building form stretches through a series of large pergolas to cover parts of the courtyard and to create a rather staged sequence of closed, open and semi open spaces.

Pet Resource Center

The Pet Resource Center is a public animal care building in Bentonville, Arkansas. The center supports the adoption and fostering of pets. Kennels and cages are intentionally omitted. The design responds to the local rural landscape and to the shapes of nearby barn buildings. The roof slopes peak, merge and extend to shelter the program. A community wing and a medical wing are joined by an internal bridge that shades the event spaces below and provides a work area for volunteers. The building has 20,000 square feet of interior space and the same area outdoors on a six acre site.

The Three Roof

The Three Roof is a house in Okinawa, Japan. Traditional Okinawan houses use long eaves to reduce subtropical heat, but deep eaves also block daylight and darken the interior. The roof is divided into three parts, so daylight enters from the north side and air passes through the house more easily. The split roof gives each area a suitable ceiling height and creates variety in the space. A pillarless space of 4.0 meters is provided under the low eaves and can be used flexibly. The building is made of reinforced concrete with exposed concrete walls.
