Changi Terminal 2

Changi Terminal 2 is an airport interior covering 120000 square meters across three levels in Singapore. The existing terminal building was completely redesigned to focus on the traveler experience and on connections to natural elements. The interior is arranged as a journey across an indoor landscape of minerals, water features and vegetation in varied forms and densities. Artisanal materials made by small craft workshops are used throughout. Technology is largely concealed to keep natural elements visible and to provide a calm environment.

New Venue and Library North Branch

Shenzhen Art Museum

Shenzhen Art Museum is a cultural complex that joins an art museum and a library in a dense urban district. The two buildings are shaped like a pair of hands that enclose a shared central space. Public platforms on several levels sit between the two volumes and are sheltered by a large cantilevered roof built as a truss steel structure. A double layer curtain wall system shapes the indoor light and reduces the cooling load. Prefabricated construction was used. The complex offers a calm setting for exhibitions and cultural exchange.

Sheerin Pavilion

The Sheerin Pavilion for 2023 Guangzhou Design Week provides an exhibition space for sintered stones. Artificial stones are employed to simulate the natural ones, aiming to present a spatial ambiance of a mined artificial stone canyon. This simulation and representation create a captivating juxtaposition. The systematic design of space, scene, and structure not only presents the unity of form and force, and the connection between behavior and space, but also provides the possibility of recyclability of the exhibition venue. It is a exploration of sustainable exhibition construction.

Harvester Robot

Monday, 25 May 2026

Automatic

Automatic is a harvesting robot made for large-scale horticultural facilities. Automatic moves along rails laid out in the greenhouse and uses cameras and sensors to judge which cherry tomatoes are ripe. An extending arm cuts whole bunches and places them in a towed box. Work can continue at night, which eases labor shortages during peak harvest periods. Rounded surfaces and a pearlescent finish soften the appearance, and indicator eyes visible from any angle show the direction of travel. Obstacles are detected so the machine stops safely.

Skyline Bay

Skyline Bay is a community center built in Chengdu, China. The building has a construction area of 920 square meters and a two-story double-height layout that forms a semi-enclosed space with partitions but no full separation. The facade is clad in silver-white aluminum plate and champagne gold perforated aluminum plate, shaped into flowing curves that recall butterfly wings. Curved lines continue inside, creating quiet corners for reflection. The design draws on the nearby Shaxi waterway and wetland park and follows a waterfront island concept.
