九米设计

Based in Hangzhou, 九米设计 designs civic courtyards, corporate receptions, and high-rise towers defined by a dialogue between classical axial proportions and crisp modern materiality, combining fluted colonnades and fan-patterned arch infills with broad rooflines and textured spandrels. This portfolio serves as a strong reference when resolving plinthless column thresholds in water basins, specifying concrete feature walls for reception spaces, or detailing rhythmic spandrel bands against glass facades.
