Maison Le Sommet / Chiasmus Partners

In A Pattern Language (1977), Christopher Alexander proposed that residential buildings in cities should be no taller than six stories. Beyond this height, he argued, residents begin to detach from their street culture—not only physically but socially. Urban life becomes abstracted; the tactile and emotional immediacy of the street is lost. In Alexander's view, the vitality of a city is founded on a human scale—a sentiment echoed by Jane Jacobs, who championed the street as a stage for community life and advocated for diverse, walkable neighbourhoods where people live, work, and interact across social thresholds.

The Wind H Art Center (Phase I) / Jin Qiuye Studio

The Wind H Art Center in the 751 District was converted from an industrial factory and its office buildings. Its renovation was done in three phases. Phase I is the main exhibition hall and an art shop. Its original building was an industrial factory from the 1980s with an office extension added in the 1990s. It has concrete columns on the east and west sides supporting a folded concrete roof, creating a column - free space. Before renovation, the southern side had a mezzanine level, while the rest was open - plan office space.
