Greenland Intercity Space Station

Greenland Intercity Space Station is an office interior located in Nanjing, China. The design covers an area of 5000 square meters and replaces the traditional standardized layout with an open and collaborative plan. The independent work areas are shaped as boxes stacked at different scales. Large light colored stone surfaces add a sense of depth. The lobby is high and spacious, and the floors have no clear boundaries. Staircases pass through the building structure and link the public areas, while stepped wooden stairs offer extra seating for meetings, lectures and events.

Spring Breeze

Spring Breeze is an office space in Kunming, Yunnan, China. The project is the renovation of a single-family steel-structured building with an indoor area of 1000 square meters. A wooden hanging house was built inside the original structure with traditional techniques, using tenon and mortise joints without nails. Two rows of columns and beams support the suspended rooms and corridors. A double-wall design controls the sunlight entering the work area through the glass facade. The wooden house forms a visual contrast with the steel building.
