In an idyllic natural setting in Shanghai suburbs, the aim of this house renovation is to re-connect the access of the residents to the nature. The designer not only tries to create "circles" flowing mutually from inside to outside, but also apply Scientific Feng Shui to integrate the physical environment with functions. The courtyard plays a role of visual and mental core which makes it possible that when people walk, sit, cook, eat, study or even sleep as if the wind, the water, the sun and the trees are around.

I traveled round the world for one year in 2008-2009. Besides being a designer, I used to be an editor, a farmer, and a street magazine circulation director at the same time. I am interested in Argentina Tango, Taichi and Traditional Chinese medicine. To keep curious about unknown and to keep learning is my life Philosophy.
