SOGO The Twins
The Twins, Kai Tak is home to the new flagship SOGO, the city’s largest Japanese-style department store. Situated in Tower I, our site features a long escalator that connects a striking triple-height atrium on the 10th floor to the Restaurant Park on the 12th floor. The design aims to transform this area into an immersive experience that transports visitors from the typical department store environment to an Engawa-inspired setting, inviting them to navigate through a space that evokes the impression of being inside a lantern. Adjacent to the atrium is TT SITE, a 25,000 sq ft multipurpose and exhibition space that we have also designed and is currently under construction.

Shoji
Located in a converted textile factory in Stoke Newington, the original apartment faced privacy issues, as its main floor was 80cm below a busy street, and lack of space for entertaining. Our proposal rethinks the layout of the entire 2 storey apartment, with areas designed to improve flow, minimise clutter and enhance the spatial experience through materiality and natural light. The dining space becomes a focal point and shoji panels are installed on the street facing side of both floors, allowing diffused light and ensuring privacy. Glass floor inserts bring light to the darker living space from the above skylights.
