Villages carry people's emotional and aesthetic perceptions. Memories of village squares with the design techniques of traditional courtyard houses. Featuring a gathering space under the eaves, a community cafe, a tea space, a familiar square, a youth tribe, and over 15 mixed-use formats, the cultural site "Muziji" was created. It serves as a hub for energy and dialogue, offering more possibilities for human connection and interaction.

The designers hope to create spaces where people can find the relaxation of nature and feel comfortable staying for as long as they wish. In their vision, scenes from their rural hometowns—such as family gatherings in the backyard, the chirping of insects and the babbling of streams on the hillsides and rivers—are among the most beautiful memories. These scenes and elements, filled with shared emotional memories, are reinterpreted in the space using modern, comfortable materials and design language.

Longquan Life College takes wisdom as its root vein, takes the energy field and the thinking of the three worlds and nine dimensions as its cornerstone, and feels the numerical system of the Hetu Luoshu and the laws of I Ching, which imply the inheritance of knowledge and the eternal flow of wisdom. Walking into the college, you can feel the vitality of the ancient cultural system.

The medical center integrates modern and professional elements to enhance the visitor experience. Curved design features enhance the softness and fluidity of the space, creating a comfortable and visually engaging environment. The entrance showcases a progressive curved design, allowing patients to feel a gradual psychological transition as they enter the treatment area. This effectively reduces anxiety and fosters relaxed interactions between patients and healthcare providers.

Materials are carefully selected, flooring and wallcovering balanced practicality and aesthetics. Durable and easy-to-clean materials ensure the space remains visually appealing while facilitating convenient daily maintenance. The overall design not only meets the functional needs of a medical facility but also prioritizes the comfort and well-being of visitors, making each visit a more pleasant experience. This thoughtful integration of design elements aims to create a welcoming atmosphere that supports both patients and staff.

Pure Semicircles is a preparatory and cram school in Osaka, Japan. The institution focuses on creating a leaning space which stimulates student senses to help them dive into their lessons while still providing a cozy and relaxing environment. The space features semicircular shapes in a variety of aspects and dimensions. The reception space is a semicircle reflecting on a mirrored median wall to become a full circle. The ceiling is covered in a rippled stainless steel that extends the space further onto the third dimensions while being highlighted with a surrounding linear indirect light.

This project envisions a comprehensive design for the communal areas of a congregate housing, which includes the lobby, lounge, gym, and children's playroom. The primary goal is to cultivate shared spaces that are not only interactive but also deeply focused on fostering a sense of community. The design concept is intricately based on a "bottom-up" curved aesthetic that gracefully weaves throughout the entire space. By incorporating a harmonious blend of durable materials—such as natural wood veneer, elegant stone, sleek stainless steel, and transparent glass—this approach creates a continuous and layered vertical experience that is visually striking. Furthermore, the layout embraces an open design that encourages social interaction while providing diverse functional facilities. This thoughtful arrangement addresses the common challenges found in traditional public spaces, including limited functionality, lack of aesthetic appeal, and poor integration.

This renovation plan aims to transform a dull old library into a lively, engaging space to boost students’ reading interest and time. The design uses a colourful scheme to create themed areas—warm tones for reading, bright tones for discussions—stimulating curiosity and focus. Irregular bookshelves and desks break traditional norms, offering flexible use and storage, while slides add both function and fun. Ambient lighting extends ceiling colour to the walls, visually enlarging the space. Soft lighting in reading zones and shelf lighting ensure comfort and clarity. Corners are equipped with colourful, comfortable seating for rest or group discussion. Interactive walls like graffiti zones and message boards promote creativity and engagement. This warm yet practical design encourages students to stay, interact, and develop a lasting interest in reading. Through bold colours, playful elements, and thoughtful layout, the library becomes a dynamic learning hub that redefines how students experience reading and space.

Steel rebar pulses as veins, neon flows as blood—  

Grey beams form the skeletal framework of space, leaving the rest to breathe in negative emptiness.  

Light installations rise in passageways through 「scaffolding structures」, symbolizing ceaseless refinement; in dance studios, they take the form of 「truss architectures」, blending stage-like drama with versatile functionality for dynamic shoots.  

Wherever light touches, individuals are empowered to unleash their authentic selves through uninhibited movement.  

WOW DANCE STUDIO deconstructs dance’s primal DNA through futuristic spatial language.

Nestled within the historic Maryknoll Convent School in Hong Kong, this newly reimagined teachers' lounge transforms an overlooked storage room into a vibrant, multi-use venue for connection, pause, and collaboration. Framed by the 1925 stained-glass window, arched beams and marble wainscoat — elements that could not be tampered with due to the site’s heritage status — the minimal intervention is both reverent and contemporary. Through bold furniture design pieces and a layout organized along a central axis that celebrates the symmetricality of classical architecture, the project is an assertive gesture that strengthens the dialogue between past and present.

At the heart of the space, a sculptural S-shaped sofa anchors a choreography of movement and gathering, creating zones for individual work, impromptu meetings, chance encounters and collective respite. Intentional design moves — including a geometric rug design — foreground educators' comfort and showcase how adaptive reuse can reframe institutional heritage for contemporary workplace needs.

This public restroom is near Kanazawa, Japan, a city that flourished during the Edo period as capital of the Kaga Domain. Today, Kanazawa produces 99% of Japan’s gold leaf, continuing a tradition over 400 years old. The interior features about 3,000 gold leaf tiles (200mm square) on walls and fixtures. These are crafted using the “Edged Gold Leaf” technique, recognized as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2020. Unchanged for centuries, the method is vital in restoring National Treasures and Important Cultural Properties. A black-based interior and indirect lighting enhance the brilliance of gold, creating a surreal atmosphere where golden spaces float in darkness.

By applying this traditional technique to a roadside facility, the project turns a functional space into a refined cultural experience.

It reveals the beauty of Kanazawa’s craftsmanship in everyday life.

The interior design of the Hera Clinic is inspired by the concept of rejuvenation, utilizing angular ‘Rays of Light’ to organize and define spaces. This design approach respects the clinic’s unique layout while fulfilling its functional requirements. Upon entry, angular features guide visitors to a marbled feature wall, leading to the central reception area, which serves as the clinic's focal point. The reception features a bold, angular noir marble counter, complemented by warm wood tones and minimalist lighting, creating an inviting atmosphere. The lounge area is designed with soft tones and angular forms to provide tranquility for patients, enhanced by ambient lighting that simulates natural light and greenery, ensuring a balance of comfort and contemporary elegance.
