A client for a house, of which I designed and supervised eight years ago, got married and bought a small lot near Tokyo Skytree, which is located in a place with a downtown atmosphere. Due to difficulty of construction within the small narrow site at the end of a narrow path, a wooden construction was chosen. Soft, dark brown Galvanized steel exterior walls create a Japanese impression, and the house naturally blends into the old neighborhood. By using glass walls on the street side, indoor views include the surrounding environment.
The Liard River Hot Springs project replaces the existing timber deck and change room facility that was eroding due to environmental exposure. The design addresses the needs of the rugged northern climate while creating a welcoming environment for the hot spring bathers. The project consists of new separate mens and womens changerooms, an expanded and upgraded deck, hot springs amenities and an upgraded path network.

Located in the Sanganer area, Aananda Township is spread over 35 Acres of land area, and is , being developed as an extension to the Jaipur city, Rajasthan, India. With an FAR of approximately 2, the total built-up area proposed for development is 2,560,000 sqft or 2,39,000sqm. The site is located about 4.5 km from the International Airport and is very close to the Sanganer Railway Station. Also, located 4 km away from Jawahar Nagar Circle, 1 km from Mansarover Industrial Flyover, 1.5 km from MuhanaMandi (Wholesale vegetable Market) the project is designed for the new generation buyers. The masterplan incorporates all facilities essential for a healthy and holistic lifestyle – a fully equipped club, swimming pool, and spaces for major everyday sports activities, a local shopping complex and a commercial space.An interesting mix of housing options is offered: low rise residential floors in 4 sizes, duplex complexes complementing each floor size, high rise residential apartment units, and individual plots as remuneration for farmers ( as farmers’ land is acquired for development).
CONTEMPORARY REFUGE – Investigating the relationship between freedom of architectural expression and its limit, beyond which it expires in the style and in the arbitrariness, the project aims to create a living environment rich and free in its use, seamless continuity between the exterior and interior spaces characterized by fluidity and by the lack of a functional purpose rigid but flexible and interesting.
