    Design Works

    • Qishe Courtyard

      The old and new are integrated into a new whole, to better meet future functional demands of reception and living for the compound.   
    • Courtyard Villa

      Siheyuan has an inward-facing architectural structure, with buildings arranged around a central courtyard. The exterior of Siheyuan is closed, while the interior courtyard is completely open, which offers little privacy for the occupants. Based on site conditions and the main functions of the project, ARCHSTUDIO decided to construct the house by borrowing and transforming the architectural pattern of traditional Siheyuan.
    • Folding Courtyard

      The project is located in Qianliang Hutong, Dongcheng District, Beijing, with a site area of about 410 square meters.
    • Layering Courtyard

      Therefore, while improving the quality of construction and infrastructure, this renovation focused on creating experience in particular scenes based on the Hutong environment, aiming to attract urban population who have increasingly diversified consumption demands.
    • Twisting Courtyard

      The design aims at getting rid of the solemn and stereotyped impression given by Siheyuan, and creating an open and active living atmosphere.
    • Waterside Buddhist Shrine

      The building is located in the forest by the riverside. Along the river, here is a mound, behind which is a great stretch of open field and sporadic vegetable greenhouses. The design started from the connection between the building and nature, adopts the method of earthing to hide the building under the earth mound while presenting the divine temperament of nature with flowing interior space. A place with power of perception where trees, water, Buddha and human coexist is thus created.
