Poly Central Residence

Poly Central Residence is a sales center located in Yangjiang, China. The interior covers 900 square meters. Concrete blocks are interlaced to imitate coastal rocks, recalling the traces of time and tide. Rocky walls and a blocky ceiling form multiple levels and a natural spatial order. Green moss grows between the rocks, and open areas echo the waterscape outside. The walls, ceiling, reception counter, water bar, showcase and scaled model are customized. Ceramics, stone, metal and leather contrast with each other, and lights with simple lines are embedded in cabinets and walls.

Dahua Park Shijia

Dahua Park Shijia is a residential interior design based on the concept of a park. A water feature in the entrance hall echoes the indoor landscape. One door, one tree, one stone, one table and one chair, together with horizontal and vertical lines and several vertical axes, form a balanced oriental space. The sand table balances nature and space, and joins eastern elements with modern art. The aisle links landscape paintings with modern marble sculptures. The VIP room combines heavy decoration with soft furnishing. The project is located in Dalian.

Tirpse

Tirpse is a restaurant and bar interior located inside a retail development in Hong Kong. The space of 3200 square feet is planned around the story of a visit to a chef's private dining hut. Five key elements shape the interior: a forest and its surroundings, the chef's wolf companion, the private hut, a tale told through food and a treasure chest. The treasure chest is a secluded seating area placed in a deep corner. Simple materials and details were selected to suit a three month construction period and a limited budget.

Pure Essences

Pure Essences is an interior design project for an architecture firm in Tainan, Taiwan. The building volumes are gradually recessed, creating balconies that receive ample sunlight for the working areas. Fair-faced concrete and grey slate are used on the exterior and inside, giving a consistent and low-key appearance that matches the surrounding environment. Stone pavers with grass between them improve the water retention of the soil. A small pool and a tree help moderate the temperature. The layout provides smooth circulation and open views toward the garden.

Home in Picture

The project is a living space created for a family of four with two kids. The dreamland atmosphere created by the home design comes not only from the fairy tale world created for children, but also from the futuristic sense and spiritual shock brought by the challenge on traditional home furnishings. Not being bound by rigid methods and patterns, the designer disintegrated traditional logic and presented a new interpretation of lifestyle.

GRND Coffee

GRND Coffee is a cafe interior designed within a space of 30 square metres. The old building has weak partition walls, so a separate steel structure was added to act as an envelope. The envelope is finished with oak wood in a herringbone pattern with brass dividers. Brass spacers repeat the pattern in the polished terrazzo floor. Marble surfaces and polished brass inserts are combined with industrial elements. Instead of standard tables and chairs, a row of upholstered benches runs along one wall. Small, lightweight tables can be moved to suit each guest.
