Christie Co/Habitat reimagines the space above Christie Station as a new model of urban living where housing, biodiversity, and transit infrastructure converge.Its defining architectural gesture extends the landscape of Christie Pits Park upward and over the building to create a continuous, inhabited terrain. The project transforms existing transit infrastructure into a mixed-use residential community that draws people, landscape, and urban biodiversity into a connected system, extending the ecology of the park.

Shared gardens, a planted roof, and outdoor ga... More

Skademosen 1+2 is a competition proposal for a residential development as part of a land acquisition process in Trekroner, Roskilde. The proposal comprises approximately 30 homes, arranged as a cohesive residential cluster around a central courtyard, accessed directly from Skademosen. Caption Caption The courtyard accommodates parking, private storage sheds, shared waste facilities and other communal functions, creating a clear and efficient internal structure. The residential blocks are carefully staggered to create visual connections between the buildings and establish a varied spatial sequence. Smaller-scale buildings are positioned along Trekroner Parkvej, gradually reducing the scale towards the adjacent residential neighb... More

The project is located in Chengdu, the vibrant city known as the "Land of Abundance". However, the target clientele for this project yearns for a Nordic-style relaxation, naturalness, and restraint. Therefore, we attempt to strike a balance between "vibrancy" and "artistic sensibility": while retaining the intimate warmth of urban life, we also create a living environment that combines everyday vibrancy with artistic flair through exquisite spatial organization and artistic scene creation. PrismImage PrismImage PrismImage PrismImage The design extracts the natural, relaxed, and restrained spiritual temperament from the Nordic lifestyle, with "life show" as the narrative core. It translates daily life into spatial experi... More

The Vagão House is arranged longitudinally across the site, taking advantage of the open views toward the mountains to the south. Conceived as a dry and efficient construction system, the house is organized through two clearly defined volumes. The private areas are concentrated in a suspended upper pavilion, while the social spaces occupy the ground floor and open almost entirely toward the garden. TETRO TETRO TETRO This configuration creates a continuous relationship between interior and exterior, allowing the living spaces to extend into the landscape. The elevated volume also provides shade and protection to the spaces below, while reinforcing the horizontal character of the house. Structure, construction logic and... More

Located on a corner site surrounded by pōhutukawa, this house epitomises perfect summer living in a picturesque coastal setting with a close-knit community.The façade is composed of horizontal weatherboards with a battened grid that sets the windows of the building in elevations that are constantly in the feathered shadow of trees – which is emblematic of our intention to design a house to harness the interplay of light and shadow. Caption Caption Built to an ‘S’ plan, the predominant living spaces wrap around a central courtyard, with verandas and breezeways with louvred edges contributing both a garden lightness and the experience of being simultaneously inside and out. Predominantly a pristine white in... More

As an ideological and spatial extension of his Zen Garden residential project, architect Svetozar Andreev has designed a series of private gardens for the entrance area. The gardens serve as an organic component of the architectural ensemble, acting as a threshold between the dynamic rhythm of the metropolis and the intimate, oasis-like atmosphere of the residence in the historical center of St. Petersburg. © 2026 Svetozar Andreev © 2026 Svetozar Andreev © 2026 Svetozar Andreev © 2026 Svetozar Andreev The composition centers around evergreen greenhouses, while the interplay of materials evokes the relaxing atmosphere of a high-end resort. The spatial scenario is built upon the contrast between textu... More

The project consists of two elements: a dome and a ring. One forms a semi-sheltered space for gathering, the other marks entry. Their geometry is direct, but their readings builds through use. Set within faculty housing for Shanghai’s science universities, these are not symbolic objects at a distance but everyday landscape spaces. Wu Qingshan Wu Qingshan Wu Qingshan Wu Qingshan Wu Qingshan Both elements draw from scientific structures that are globally legible, yet also resonant with traditional practices that persist alongside contemporary scientific culture in China. Rather than representing science, the installation creates conditions where research, cultural memory, and everyday ritual coexist. Meaning is... More

The site in question is situated in Radlice, Prague, in an area that is gradually being transformed from a former industrial zone into a vibrant, mixed-use urban neighbourhood. In the past, the site served as a tip for excavated soil and building materials, and as a base for construction companies. It was previously an empty space devoid of vegetation, whose potential lay in restoring its natural character and creating a high-quality living environment. The design is based on the idea of integrating the architecture with the surrounding landscape. The newly designed greenery ties in with the vegetation on the adjacent plots and seamlessly draws it into the site. Green roofs, climbing plants on the façades and community gardens creat... More
