The project is located at a wide green land. The architect creates an oasis in the urban jungle, where human and nature coexist harmoniously. The architect observes the environment and creates connection among human, architecture and nature with gentle design techniques. Simple design is adopted and a large area of windows is installed. Combined with the characteristics of the site, well-organized interior and exterior gardens are created, which allows visitors feeling the nature there.

This is an independent restaurant design project in a low-density area and It locates beside a sloping road. The configuration of the building echoes the continuous mountain lines, which is close to nature but not obtrusive. The architect makes good use of the scenery based on the environment, allowing the architecture echoes the environment. The building is only two-story height, but the layers of the space are enriched through matching with the height difference of the sloped hillside. The roofs with different heights of the front and the rear buildings, the sloped lines and the slopes of the surrounding mountains merge and echo each other.

The large area of windows on the south and the north introduces natural light to the space. Inclined upstand beams adopted not only provides shade from the sun but also maintain an unobstructed view. The cobblestones are paved on the upstand beams area of the roof, which blocks the heat effectively. The configuration of the architecture not only effectively maintains the brightness and coolness of the space, but also achieves the goal of carbon reduction. In addition, staircases are planned to connect the indoor and outdoor space. Multi-layer planting concept is applied and the building is surrounded by greenery, no matter at the entrance, the garden or even the corners. A large area of greenery without fence is planned, allowing nearby residents enjoying the scenery, interpreting the love to the land and the concept of sharing.
