Studio Bagechaa

Once graced by majestic sandstone mausoleums enveloped by verdant gardens, these charbaghs were more than architectural marvels—they were sanctuaries of peace, where nature and design converged to embody balance, serenity, and a vision of paradise on earth. Vaibhav Bhatia Nestled within the heart of Shahpur Jat, a locality that still retains its narrow lanes, old havelis, and ancient monuments; the echoes of Delhi’s old-world charm intertwine with the vibr...

Round Roofs Residence

Round Sky and Angular Ground The phrase, “The sky is round and the ground is angular.” is an old-saying found in the Chinese astronomic book, Zhou bi suan jing. Ancient Fareast Asians acknowledged the boundary between the sky and buildings as curves. For that reason, traditional Korean buildings have distinctively curved roof lines. We took a philosophical approach in terms of designing building rather than the curved form itself. KSPNC KSPNC Jinbo Choi Jinbo Choi Filling the Triangular Site The shape of the site is unusually triangular which dissects a road that meets its one sharp corner. Sitting right in front of the Mungyeong City Hall and the Mojeon Park, the site open to outdoor spaces in the neighbo... More

BASEYARD TOKYO - OSAKA

Baseyard Tokyo is transmitting things and things as a new culture of all genres. In the shop design of the project, which will be the first store in Osaka, we designed it as a space that combines economic efficiency and functionality while retaining the facilities and sections of the existing store. A wall fixture system was adopted to accommodate a variety of displays, and the basic wall surface was finished to make use of the expression of the gypsum board and screws that are usually used as base materials. The counter is LGS, the façade is mortar, and the fixtures are made of SUS base material to form the space. Norihito Yamauchi Norihito Yamauchi Norihito Yamauchi Caption More
