Lake

Lake is a coffee table designed for the modern home. The table is made from North American black walnut, shaped by CNC machining into a three-dimensional curved surface. The cut wood is assembled directly and finished with wax oil over an oil-free base. A hidden drawer on one side runs on a full extension concealed undermount slide and opens completely. A hidden USB port and a three-hole socket under the top supply power for daily use. The grounding area is planned so the table stays stable when the weight of an adult is applied to any edge.

Huanghesong Theatre

Huanghesong Theatre is an interior design for a cultural venue covering 35000 square meters. The design draws on the vortex form of the Yellow River and on the ritual and music culture of the Central Plains. Different corridors and halls connect all functional spaces. Load-bearing columns are treated as decorative carriers, and their tailored forms recall book pages. The main materials are super white cave stone, Monaco grey stone, grindstone, GRG and bronze metal. These materials were selected for cost efficiency and low-carbon performance.

The Peacock

The Peacock is a wine cellar of about ten square meters. The cellar is lined with one thousand blue glazed terra cotta tiles, each shaped and finished by hand. The tiles are arranged in a triple curved array inspired by the form of a peacock. Each tile holds a wine bottle and carries a small light that illuminates the tile below, so the only other light source is a single spotlight above the central table. The tiles were made by artisans in Jingdezhen, China, using a feather textured blue glaze of the Song Dynasty. Cooling is managed by a smart controller.
