The Future Office - Holcim HQ / Beyond Space + Fritschi Beis Architektur

Inspirations and key concepts -  The project was inspired by Holcim's core material and identity: cement. As the world's largest cement manufacturer and a driver of material innovation and emerging construction techniques, Holcim sought a headquarters that would both represent its DNA and support a future-proof way of working.

Shell House / Alhumaidhi Architects

Shell House is a residential project that reimagines the traditional courtyard home through the language of softness, light, and spatial layering. Located on a corner plot in Kuwait, the design draws inspiration from the organic morphology of a shell—protective on the outside, open and nurturing on the inside. At its heart lies a lush, intimate courtyard with a pool, visible from the home's primary living spaces and home gym, establishing the courtyard as both a literal and conceptual anchor. The architecture wraps gently around this core, with a series of soft curves that define the building's form and guide the spatial experience throughout.

CHUNXI Marketplace and GULANG Gymnasium / Atelier Z+

NEXUS is guided by the core principles of vibrancy, low carbon, and smart living. It marks the first realized "Ideal Unit" of a future community since Vanke launched its "Future City" program initiative in 2018. CHUNXI Marketplace and GULANG Gymnasium are among the first batch buildings completed in the community. As early exemplars, they're not only the container of everyday life, but also the advocate of green ecology.

Lake House / Mazumdar Bravo

With breathtaking views of Pawna Lake and the Tikona and Tung forts, this house is designed to perform as backdrop architecture to the landscape, an arrangement of four compact structures that open up to - and showcase - the outdoors. The placement of the house on the site, right after the crest of the hill, under a landmark fig tree, ensures that the landscape comes first, the architecture second. The house reveals itself as a surprise, half hidden behind the trees, and yet captures the views, opening up towards the lake, where the house reveals its full height.
