At the beginning of designing the scheme, XIGO STUDIO thought about the origin of housing design, and hoped to create a more mobile and closer space while sorting out the movement relationship between human and space. By studying the basic forms in nature, the design team made the design full of imagination and power. Taking “Atom” as the conceptual demo of the project, they extended the physical model of this smallest particle to the design transformation of this project. The designers abstracted the structural form of atom, and transformed it in space and plane so as to show the purity and nature of the space form through the material origin of physical aspect.

Casa Frade is a project designed by Schuchovski Arquitetura. The residence, located in a large plot with a privileged view facing the canal was chosen by the family who wanted a quiet and comfortable place to rest and also to receive friends and family. The house already had a very characteristic history and architecture, originally designed by architect Gabriel Matravolgyi. Once acquired by the family, some changes in the layout and openings were suggested by Schuchovski Arquitetura, for greater integration between spaces, in order to better attend the needs of the new owners, while still maintaining the original essence of the house design, respecting the preexisting architecture.

The project is a villa located in the coastal city of Shantou. The local fruit and vegetable market is always bustling from 1 am to 5 am. While most people are sleeping soundly, the villa’s owners are busy in the market, living a life upside down day and night. For this project, AD ARCHITECTURE intended to create a healing “harbor”, a cozy home full of love. The home is expected to slow down the fast-paced life of the family, and to be a container of cheers and laughter. At the moment when the owners open the door, their tiredness will be suddenly relived. Photography by Ouyang Yun.

Located on 35 acres outside of Whitefish Montana, the Stillwater residence by PBW Architects sits at the edge of a field along the Stillwater River. Meant as a second home for quiet retreats as well as larger gatherings, eventually the clients plan to move in permanently to take advantage of the scenery, outdoor activities, and remoteness of the rural site. They strongly desired a light touch, restoring the existing disturbances to the land where possible, and requested that we design with sustainable elements of all sorts, from low-tech passive solar strategies to cutting-edge climate control systems.
