城理设计 Urban Fabric

Based in Hangzhou, 城理设计 Urban Fabric creates cultural exhibition centers and historic renewal precincts defined by sharp geometric forms, reflective water features, and delicate timber-and-glass interventions inserted against traditional masonry and dark wood facades. The portfolio offers a clear precedent when detailing deep eave overhangs with carved timber screens, bridging historic building volumes with lightweight modern structures, or negotiating tight, irregular site boundaries through angular planning.
