WHO ARE WE

We are a team of architects with an international background. The members all have European and American education background and extensive experience in global first-line foreign-funded firms. The project experience covers Europe, China, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan.

WHAT WE DO

Our project types are broad and diverse, covering urban design, architectural design, interior design, product design and many other dimensions, from large commercial complexes, super high-rise offices, to small 20 square meters restaurant, or a smart retail device. These are all our design objects. It is involved in various types of projects such as office, business, hotel, homestay, retail, and restaurant.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

“Returning to the origin of design, creative problem solving” is the core concept of the firm. We look at each project in a multi-dimensional perspective of globalization—rather than a fixed style and form—and strive to provide a “reasonable, unexpected” solution. Through in-depth research and rational analysis, “prove” the rationality of the design, and also through the solid technical ability to “sublimate” the spiritual significance of the space.
