Bowl Fantasy

Bowl Fantasy is the interior design of a modern Cantonese tong sui store that serves sweet soup as a dessert. The soup bowl, the symbol of the brand, is the main design theme. Bowl forms are split, folded, stacked and regrouped to create a three-dimensional screen, a layered ceiling and large chandeliers. About eighty percent of the design is produced with off-site laser cutting, which reduces cost, construction time and on-site labor. The result is a dessert store where one everyday object shapes every main spatial element.

Wyndham Dongrong

Wyndham Dongrong is a resort located in the south of Yixian County, Anhui, China. The resort covers 67118 square meters and unites architecture, landscape and interior design in one solution. The layout draws on traditional Hui-style villages, using enclosed courtyards, small water systems and winding corridors. Yixian Green marble, a local stone, clads the walls below the third floor, so the building appears to sink into the natural setting. Horse head wall forms are repeated as an array and simplified into art installations along the street.

Large empty areas keep the interior simple and calm.
