Memoria

Memoria is a chair made from concrete canvas, a textile that is normally used in civil construction for its durability and resistance. The chair is shaped over a mold that is three-dimensionally printed in recyclable PLA. The concrete canvas is applied to the mold and left to set for at least 24 hours. An epoxy resin is then added to fill the pores and increase solidity. Memoria measures 1100 by 900 by 708 millimeters and is impact resistant and waterproof. The design combines sustainability, function and new sensory experiences.

Parachute

Parachute is a wall shelf made of sheet metal. When a section is in use, the plank of that section drops down and hangs in place. The hanging plank holds a coat, a magazine or similar items and keeps them from falling. The surface carries colored stripes separated by thin spaces, so the shelf recalls the graphic appearance of a modern parachute and can also be read as wall art. Parachute measures 790 mm in width, 30 mm in depth and 220 mm in height. The name joins the ideas of protecting and falling.

Scent of a Golden Age

Scent of a Golden Age is a coffee shop in the Chihkan District of Tainan. The project is a renovation of a sixty-year-old two-story shophouse and covers 158.67 square meters. The design takes cues from the Showa era and from the imagery of the good old days. The steel frame and iron cladding of the old house are retained and refined. Revivalist woodwork supports the pitched roof, which has an oval opening recalling the entrance of a Japanese residence. Gold and autumn colors form the main palette. A spiral staircase organizes the circulation near the bar counter.

Skylight

Skylight is a sales center in Yiwu, China, covering an area of 600 square meters. The interior space is deep, and the building has no large glass curtain wall, so natural light inside was limited. Skylights were added in the roof to bring daylight into the interior. The form of the skylights refers to the caisson ceiling, a decorative element of traditional Chinese architecture, based on an abstracted well shape. Traditional materials and methods were used to complete the project at a limited cost.

The Westin Miyako Kyoto Chapel

Intended to express the new spirit of Kyoto, the highly original chapel is able to accommodate the increasingly diverse range of wedding styles sought by contemporary couples, including not only conventional church ceremonies but also Shinto and non-religious ceremonies. It utilized as much of the existing framework as possible, adding a wooden ceiling lattice interwoven with indirect lighting to evoke sunlight pouring through the branches of trees. The result is a sacred space imbued with traditional Japanese aesthetics and deep respect for its abundant natural surroundings.
