Client intention for this house to have lifted effect when he come in from the front of the house. As architectural treatment, basement and first storey is recess backward, & a terrace garden is created to achieve the effect of main building block is lifted from ground. Client also like the idea of having split floor within the house. Centre core spaces is created to connect all the split floor, and as a resultant, it become the main spaces within the house. Within the staircore area, its a visual connecting point for movement of the house. Study room at 2nd storey is set to be open to create the connectivity with the double volume dining space.

Sanya Haitangwan is a long stretch of prime tourism development masterplan facing the south china sea. This masterplan project is hospitality orientated. It involve planning of prime villas, hotels,clubhouse and wind breaking landscape along the sea shore.

SANYA CLUBHOUSE

Sanya Clubhouse is a one-stop entertainment and facilities center for the hospitality cluster within this masterplan. 3 conical building extended out from the main spaces resemblance the volcano in Sanya region, each have its own style and serving different function. This clubhouse is integration of normal rectilinear architecture with curve architecture. Conical architecture extend out from the 6,000 m2 infinity pool as if independent volcano sleeping in midddle of ocean. Due to the complexity of this, client have engage a renoved engineering firm “RBS Architectural Engineering Design Associates” to consult on the structural requirement for the signature 3 conical architecture. For this complex architecture, it have be fun and challenging when solving various technical issue .

SEAVIEW & WALDORF VILLA

“Coral Reef” as driving concept for 2 groups of premium villa cluster, the curvy roof forms with coral theme colour roof represent cluster of coral reef in the sea. Sanya’s government is pushing for low attitude tourism as tourist attraction. Hence, bird eyes perspective for overall masterplanning is prioritised. The cluster of villa can also be seen from the high-rise hotel in the surrounding, which will be one of the landmark for the tourists. For this project, I been constantly working with LDI to resolve all the authority requirement in China & the MEP, Sturctural consultant requirement. Concurrently, i’m coordinating with Interior Design consultant from Hong Kong and London & Landscape designer to finetune and perfecture the villa design.

Client’s very own hotel branding “The Botanist Hotel” designed with integrations of various themed gardens within hospitality setting. This hotel aims to allow guest to indulge in nature while sparks their inner “explorer” traits to discover and interact with the curated garden. This hospitality project involve close collaboration with landscape and hospitality designer group since conceptual stage. Hotel is furnished with 320 rooms and 10 different theme gardens.

EQUESTRIAN THERAPY CENTRE

Public have limited understanding with equestrian and what equin can do. In this project brief , client intended to bring this equestrian-therapy center nearer to the public as an education and exposure to the public about the available therapy method. Hence the architectural concept for this equestrian center is to create visually interconnected space for public to expose to equine daily life, while keep the patient away while provide habitable space for the equine. With circular plan, it created a contained space for the equine to roam around in seperate arena without sharp corner. Public space is located at one corner and seperated with spaces or water feature to minimise interuption of therapy session & horse daily routine.

Facade Design inspiration from Chinese window frame, where big panel is breakdown into smaller frame and the inner dainty structure further subdivide the frame into smaller unit. Frame within frame, of different scale work coherently on the building mass to break the massive block different tier without creating chaotic ornament to the building tower.

This Studio started by question the relationship of architecture with the nature. Objective of this studio is to explore the possibility of architecture that resonate human activity with the nature. This project explore the possibility of cohabitation of human with the wild life. With human evolution over the time, human have lost their sensitivity to the nature. This project allow human to be with the nature and re-discover their relationship with the nature. Wind sculpture architecture that integrated with human operated mechanism. Human can engaged himself as they move within the architecture and inturn activate the mechanism and generate movement of the wind sculpture. The architecture moved when human within are active, and this turn the forest alive. The wind sculpture can also double as a populate enabler, as wind generated from the sculpture can assist the pollination of the plant in the forest.

3D SPACE JOINT

3D puzzle joint is quick installation method in construction to deal with multiple members in a structural system. Members that approaching a nodes at various orientation can be secure with this joints. This method simplify the work load for complicated system.

This exercise is to develop an innovative 3D joint using flat materials. By using flat material, it can reduce the material needed to create the joint an also have a better economical value interm off transporting material on site. This exercise also involve translating digital design into machine routing code to fabricate the physical model.

QUADCOPTER

Quadcopter had been a heat trend in recent year. With all the crowd sharing information online, fabricating quadcopter had become relatively simple. However, to manuveure the quadcopter is not as simple. Often time, unexperience pilot will land their quadcopter wrongly and results wrekage in the propeller wings.

The objective of this product design is to design a quadcopter which is structurly sound and have its aesthetic appeal.

INTEGRATED DESIGN

Wings of quadcoprter is the most vulnerable elements that prompt to break when improper landing. Hence a proper design of the propeller arm is fundamental crucial. To retain the structural integrity of the quadcopter chasis and reduce weight for efficient flying, an integrated structural system is proposed. This wing incorporated aesthethic with engineering. The wing design integrated classic chinese window pattern to reduce dead load while still performing like truss-structure system.
