上海 / 杭州
An urban courtyard elevation showcasing expressive external circulation and a lightweight timber-framed rooftop structure integrated into an existing white building fabric.
- What we like about this project
- An organic timber-arched canopy sitting lightly atop a rigid rectilinear white volume.

- Geometry
- Asymmetric multi-level composition featuring an interlocking white volume with an external curved steel stair and a lightweight timber-arched rooftop pavilion.
- Facade system
- Stucco-finished wall punctuated by punched windows, glass block inserts, and a prominent steel-framed external stair.
- Structural guess
- Steel frame and timber roof trusses applied to an existing masonry or concrete structure.
- Spatial scale
- Medium-scale urban infill or adaptive reuse complex; three to four stories high with accessible outdoor circulation.
- Lighting
- Bright, even daylight casting soft shadows across white stucco and metal handrails.
- Atmosphere
- Bright, airy, and layered with clean contrast between crisp white surfaces and warm timber curves.
- Environmental context
- Urban courtyard setting framed between existing low-rise white buildings and mature deciduous trees.
- Spatial experience
- Courtyard organization frames movement between ground level and elevated terraces through a prominent external circulation core.
- Composition rhythm
- Dynamic vertical and diagonal movement set against a calm backdrop of orthogonal windows and white wall planes.
- Style reading
- Contemporary adaptive reuse with lightweight architectural interventions
