Socio-ecological Studies: Community Bathhouse
Regarding the studies of Hong Kong’s rapid growth buildings, local citizens are fond of living along side the sea, due to their living environments, such as poor households, neighbourhood conditions and physical well-being. The design will be based on these issues, to deliver local tenants to relish and find their nooks of comfort.
EOS is a 32 unit co-living complex in the central transit point of Hung Hom. Composed of micro studios or bathhouse facing the sea, it is designed for single professionals and nearby residents. Also, EOS is centered by the sea and public leisure areas that is lined with collaborative work which fits the requirements.

“Streamline Modern” architectural features
Area of Site: 1418 SQM
The concept of the renovation project consists of three main programmes - the bathhouse, houseing, relaxing lounge area, laundry, cafe + bar and roof garden.
Introduction
In terms of design, the men’s and women’s bath areas are separated into a symmetrical spatial development. Thus, the types of bath springs can be used in specific orders.
A skylight can spread natural light evenly into the interior space to highlight the characteristics of floating clouds and to blur out the connections between the interior and exterior space.
Development Process
Round arches can be seen as the embodiment of minimal and linear geometric structures adding arched openings can create a visual contrast animating the facade and structure as a whole. Round arches can also acts as a soft intervention without too imposing and visually disrupting the space.

Flower Pot | Calmness and Fog
I have always been fascinated by the art of glasswork, especially after visiting the facade of Maison Hermès, designed by the Renzo Piano Building Workshop in Ginza, Japan. The building fully utilized the distinctive feature of glassware, wrapping a clamness and foggy (朦朧) look.
Thus, with the inspirations of Kaikado’s Chazutsu (茶筒), which possess functionalilty and personally the metal of brass and pale gold brings out a warmness and mysteriously elegant sheen.
