Return to Architecture
While we anticipate change and revolution, seek for new realm and direction of future architecture, we as architects feel strongly responsible to remind ourselves that we should return to architecture itself, seek for its most primitive and essence.

Converse with Nature
Green architecture and environmental design are topics that inevitably debated in our contemporary world. However we resist using them as mere design slogan, means of marketing and leverage for standing on the moral high ground. We do not believe elements of natural environment could be of pure scientific calculation. We do not believe complex problems have to be solved by complex methods. We favor to converse with nature and environment by simple introduction of light, shadow, wind, sound and view into our architecture.

Reinterpret Culture
Local culture and traditional wisdom are important elements to be incorporated into contemporary architectural design. However we resist reducing culture and tradition to superficial symbols and visual effect. We intend to reinterpret local culture and traditional wisdom with contemporary design thinking and methodology, transform them into new way of architectural expression.

Build with Simplicity
Computational design is one great revolution and irresistible trend of contemporary architecture. However we resist taking the convenience of computational tools for granted, making complex forms for the sake of being complex, making seductive forms for the sake of pure visual impact. We intend to approach form making with rationality, build poetic space with simplicity.
