Yuexiu Hanyang Starry Winking

Yuexiu Hanyang Starry Winking is a sales center designed to be converted into a kindergarten after the selling period ends. The building is located in the Hanyang District of Wuhan, China, near the Yangtze River. The design concept draws on the natural landscape and the water culture of Wuhan. A modular facade with rhythmic changes suits the units of the future kindergarten and forms a playful surface. Prefabricated glass-fiber reinforced cement panels were assembled on site to reduce visible joints and ease cleaning. Water flows from the building into the surrounding landscape.

Boonlert Hemvijitraphan House Architecture Friday, 10 April 2026

Blind

Blind is a private house in Bangkok, Thailand, designed as a quiet sanctuary for living and for the practice of meditation. The glazed ground floor holds an open plan living and dining area set between a reflective pond and a sculptural hill. The hill, inspired by origami, covers a sunken garage and a shrine. A long concrete plane rests on the transparent facade, so the upper floor appears to float above the landscape. The upper level is clad in a steel lattice that offers privacy and filters sunlight into the two bedrooms.

Fondazione Bertarelli

Forum Fondazione Bertarelli is a concert hall for 350 people on the slopes of Mount Amiata in the Tuscan Maremma, Italy. The hall has an organic shape based on golden proportions, so sound is amplified by the form and by natural materials instead of mechanical systems. The main structure is coloured reinforced concrete, covered with insulating materials and bricks, while curved oxidised steel plates guide visitors towards the foyer. The building stands within an olive grove and replaces an earlier plan for nine residential buildings on the same site.

Press Glass

Press Glass is an office headquarters building set on a green plateau in Konopiska, Poland. The ground floor plan is an equilateral triangle with a span of 80 metres and encloses an inner courtyard. Offices are placed along the outer facade, while relaxation and open space zones surround the courtyard, so each workplace receives daylight and views of the landscape. Concrete, steel and glass form the structure, and prestressed concrete allows wide spans. Fan-shaped terraces and natural colours blend the building into the surrounding land.

Wenlan Mansion

Wenlan Mansion is a display center located near West Mountain and Dian Lake in Kunming, China. The site faces the mountain, offers an open view and is surrounded by ecological resources. The design uses the five meter height difference of the ground to create vertical spaces and an ascending view. The layout follows traditional Kunming courtyards, with axis symmetry and a front and back yard plan that divides the site into a cultural exhibition area, a water courtyard and a private garden. Stone and aluminum plate are used on the facade.
