Yueyun Teahouse

Yueyun Teahouse is a community center set between the mountains and the sea in Xiamen. The building form follows the Fibonacci spiral, also known as the golden spiral, and is controlled by the golden ratio. The final shape resembles a conch shell and responds to the coastal setting. A curved full glass curtain wall makes the ground level visually transparent and lets sunlight and air enter. A covered bridge finished in metal panels contrasts with the garden and forms a visual center. About 1000 aluminum plates of different sizes were joined to shape the thin spiral.

A continuous roof of white composite aluminium sheet links the indoor and outdoor areas and offers space for rest. The facade uses tempered hollow glass curtain walls with undulating perforated aluminium sunshades. The sunshades reduce direct sunlight and save energy.

Coast Whale

The bionic form of the whale became the language of this chapel. A whale stranded on the coast of Iceland.

The supporting structure falls on the beach to ensure minimal damage to the natural environment. Natural and environmentally friendly materials make this project a tourist destination that calls for environmental protection.

The PolyCuboid

The PolyCuboid is the new headquarter building for TIA, a company that provides insurance services. The first floor was shaped by the limits of the site and the 700mm diameter water pipe that is crossing the site underground limiting foundation space. The metallic structure dissolves into the diverse blocs of the composition. The pillars and beams vanish from the space syntax, projecting the impression of an object, while also eliminating that of a building. The volumetric design is inspired by TIA’s Logo turning the building itself into an icon representing the company.

Alila Wuzhen

Alila Wuzhen is a hotel inspired by the water towns south of the Yangtze River. The overall plan takes traditional villages of the region as its prototype, and retains their spatial forms, basic elements, building scales and color relations. Direct decorative elements are avoided, and fine materials, simple structures and quiet modern colors are used instead. Wide glass surfaces, large door leaves and deep overhanging eaves form a continuous and orderly frame. Streets, lanes and courtyards are given new functions. The hotel covers 25000 square meters.
