MENG ARCHITECTS 孟建民团队

Based in Shenzhen and Guangzhou, Meng Architects produces civic, cultural, and spiritual complexes characterized by dramatic floating cantilevers, continuous perimeter light bands, and rich material contrasts between smooth metallic volumes and traditional golden elements. This portfolio serves as a strong reference when detailing transitions between linear and curved building masses, integrating public roof parks into sloped terrains, or resolving deep facade undercuts that conceal structural supports.
