A 12-meter-high corridor is nestled between one straight wall and one angled wall, breaking the boundaries of conventional design techniques. Stereoscopic visual layers are interlaced to create a temporal array of light and shadow. In the space facade, photocatalysts and other ecologically friendly materials have been used.
The spiral staircase softens the visual senses with its light and dynamic rhythm, symbolizing the bond between people and the city. The negotiation area embraces appropriate white and minimalist three-dimensional structure. The furniture in various combination modes can be reassembled according to the needs of different activities.
The floating platform, with its interlocking blocks and nested angles, is a powerful 'urban stage' that overlooks the entire site. By doing so, the space enjoys fluidity and vitality in symbiosis with the city.

The design theme is ‘City’. In most movies, stories usually start in a bustling city, therefore, we drew inspiration from the aerial view of cities, presenting the hustle and bustle of cities in a figurative way. ‘Boxes’ in rectangular or trapezoidal shape the ceilings and walls, extending in various heights and angles in the lobby, which is the image of a bustling metropolis with skyscrapers.
Natural marble was used for floor, walls, seating and bar counter. However, using metal panels printed with stone pattern rather than natural stone to create the ceiling was the result of cost control and weight reduction. Considering the sound effect in auditoriums, the space was made with stone patterns printed on cloth.
The geometry of the space is a resemblance of land plots formed by intersecting roads in cities, with the connection of forming a surface field with each other.

""Monkey King is Back"" is the world's first flagship store created by ADDICTEA in the midst of the noise and to trap Sun Wukong's five hundred years of ""five elements Mountain"" as design inspiration. The ""Wuxing Mountain"" is broken, split and reorganized, and then new aluminum and coated tempered glass are used as the main material to cast a very tense architectural form.
It tells about the history and present of Chinese tea. Using clear concrete, mirror stainless steel and carbonized fir to construct the whole space belonging to the spirit of ""the enfant"", build a carrier that can provide different spiritual experiences for contemporary people.

This cabin is one of the sites for the subscription service “SANU 2nd Home” with the concept of "Live with nature.” It was designed by an environmentally friendly architect, who reformed the previous building method by using domestic timber, a stilted architecture to reduce the load on the soil, and construction methods that do not use nails or screws.
It is equipped with functions for "living in nature”: high thermal insulation, slit walls for a quiet environment, and a traditional Japanese raised floor to prevent moisture buildup. Furthermore, the main window which opens from floor to ceiling, seamlessly connects the room with the surrounding nature.
The zoning with curved wooden walls make people to feel comfortable as they spend time on things such as working, resting, or gathering. This project is expanding and 57 cabins have been built in 8 locations by May 2023.

LuxLinea is an ophthalmology clinic in Shibuya, Tokyo. The new addition to Total Eye Care clinics in the heart of the Japanese capital takes place on the ground floor of a mixed-use building with clear glass facades.
The design addresses two main issues: glass reflections, and patients’ privacy. To counter the bright daylight reflections on the glass, obstructing visibility, a series of intriguing vertical lines of light are emitted from the inside attracting the curiosity of the passerby. All the walls around the waiting area are finished in mirrors reflecting the urban environment during daytime and assimilating it inside the clinic.
The interior becomes a fantasy experiential space made of floating light elements. At night, the outside becomes darker than the inside turning the glass into a highly reflective surface. The space becomes wrapped in mirrors in every direction where light elements overlap in a kaleidoscopic effect.
