Shwasam, denoting breath, is an endeavor to build a breathable structure that pulsates with life as it merges with the scenic surroundings of the site. The building is unassuming and camouflaged in the midtones that the tropical landscape affords. A passerby may casually stroll into the lush green surroundings of the farm, Greenara, and spot a structure that looks cozy and inviting.
Haiyan Ke Tang is located in Haiyan Village, within the Dian Lake National Tourist Resort in Kunming. After the closure of Haiyan Primary School in 2008, a simple warehouse structure was erected on the playground, which became a public dining space for villagers to hold wedding and funeral banquets, a tradition locally referred to as “guest hall” or “guest affairs room.” An invitation from the Dianchi Art Season 2024 prompted the renovation and upgrade of Ke Tang. For Haiyan Village, on the one hand, its unique geographical location and the breathtaking, ever-changing sunsets and twilight skies have made it extremely popular post-pandemic—a longing for equality and public access to waterfront spaces, triggered by the sublime celestial landscapes, seems to reflect the beautiful life by the side of Dian Lake as recorded by Du Tianrong in the 1960s.
The Kids’ Workshop House at St.Pauli in Hamburg is a place where children can playfully explore the world of crafts. As part of the restructuring of a park, it was given a new location.

It is situated near the village road and adjacent to a football field where daily sports activities for youth take place.

The project is situated in Shanghai’s Huangpu District, marking the first facade on the south bank of the Suzhou River, facing the Sihang Warehouse across the river. It stands as one of the focal points in Shanghai’s urban renewal initiative known as “One River, One Creek”. Originally built in 1989, the structure served as the Shanghai Wireless Radio Instrument Factory. Following renovation, it has been transformed into the Nanjing East Road Street Community Service Center (Zero-Distance Homeland). In 2023, it was recognized as an outstanding case in Shanghai’s “15-Minute Living Circle” award.

This project is located in a modest district north of the port city of Ashdod. The site is part of a complex of educational buildings. The original building, designed by Architect Itzhak Perelshtein, served as a secondary school. In recent years, only a third of the building continued to function as a secondary school, while the rest was abandoned. Intervening in an existing project presents a great dilemma.
