Cuiwan Zhongcheng

Cuiwan Zhongcheng is a demonstration zone and later community center built in Zhengzhou, China. The building stands at the junction of two plots and opens towards the city. The design applies the concept of the Mobius ring, translating a continuous four dimensional form into an open, multi dimensional space that can also serve as a pedestrian bridge. A steel structure supports external walls of hyperboloid aluminum plates, which are made in a factory and assembled on site. All materials used are low carbon, recyclable and environmentally friendly.

Longfor Origin

Longfor Origin is a sales center located in Shenyang, China. The interior covers 1400 square meters and is arranged as a customized club space that combines art, technology, humanities, health, business and entertainment, with the sales function kept discreet. An astrolabe design and a spiral chandelier create patterns of light during the day and points of starlight at night. A spiral staircase with a metallic texture connects the two floors. Steps, straight lines and floor-to-ceiling windows separate the areas and add depth.

Shenzhen Zhongshuge

Inspired by the rapid development and achievements of the project location, Shenzhen Zhongshuge is created to pay tribute to the countless pioneers in this immigrant city.

The unconventional design approach to fuse commerce and art breaks the shackles of the monotonous attributes of a space bound to function, conveys the brand's values, brings a new and novel place gene to consumers' shopping experience.

Eureka

Eureka is a lounge chair designed for living rooms. The form of Eureka is based on the Enneper surface, a mathematical model that gives the chair a sense of order and flow. The elaborate supporting structure remains stable and provides ergonomic comfort. Curved edges add visual tension and invite the user to sit or lie down. The interior is made of moulded glass steel and is covered with wool fabric from the Kvadrat Sprinkles series. The fabric stretches in all directions and shows coloured dots that change with the viewing angle.

272 Hedges Avenue Pedestal

The two-story pedestal base of 272 Hedges Avenue in Gold Coast, Australia, brings a human scale to the residential tower and creates a contextual connection with the surroundings. As urbanization grows, it separates humans from nature. The pedestal merges the built and natural environments, improving the area and community. Advanced design techniques and products were used by Contreras Earl Architecture to create a biologically informed and digitally engineered design. The pedestal is a unique and site-specific solution that contributes to the evolution of architecture and urban development, benefiting inhabitants and the environment.
