Quaint and Quirky

Quaint & Quirky Dessert House is a project that shows modern contemporary vibe with a touch of nature that accurately reflects the delicious treats. The team want to create a venue that truly unique and they looked to the bird’s nest for inspiration. The concept then brought to life through a collection of seating pods that serve as the central feature of the space. The vibrant structure and colours of all the pods share help to create a sense of uniformity that ties together the ground and mezzanine floor even as they give the ambience a touch of attention-grabbing.

Cliff House

This is a fishing cabin with a mountain view, on the bank of Heaven River (‘Tenkawa’ in Japanese). Made of reinforced concrete, the shape is a simple tube, six meters long. The roadside end of the tube is counterweighted and anchored deep in the ground, so that it extends horizontally from the bank and hangs out over the water. The design is simple, the interior is spacious, and the riverside deck is open to the sky, the mountains and the river. Built below the road level, only the roof of the cabin is visible, from the roadside, so the construction does not block the view.

Bamboo Breeze

Designer believes that "space should give people an opportunity to think." The use of rich transparency to express spatial relationships continues through these different façades — with the design of eight screen-style panoramic high windows, the bamboo landscape outside the building becomes the backdrop for the central core of the interior.The double entrance designed to meet the expectations of the owners undoubtedly brings the contrast between contemporary and classical.

The original building is a 100-year-old Tianjin shipyard, respecting and paying tribute to the historical significance of the original building. The designer designed the project through the concept of a large ship driving on the sea, connecting the original showroom and the sales office which two separate buildings, through a corridor to form a complete building, and using the streamlined shape of the ship to design the building's outline, and with the design of the waterscape, the shape of thea large ship driving on the sea is formed.

Villa AT

Villa AT is located on a high vantage point, with an L-shaped floor plan pivots around a long curved glass façade, offering cinematic views of the landscape. The house stands in contrast to these boxy, conventional forms with a curving façade that uses wood in a fluid, contemporary way. Thin timber slats gently curve around the façade to create strong but soft forms. From a distance, the Villa AT has a serene, minimal appearance, but up close the rough texture of timber slats become apparent.

Oka Eye

The stand design illustrates the creative approach of Oka company to the importance of design in its products. The outer skin of the stand is a half-transparent facade, where randomly wooden lamellas strengthen by key values, which are driven by OKA company, which concentrate and direct the visitor to the hollow entrance which suks them inside the stand and reveals the world of OKA furniture. The stand in a metaphor of a creative process which starts with the initial idea which is driven by the design and ends up in the final piece of furniture.
