In 2008, after winning an international competition, Fuksas have been commissioned the design of the new international terminal for Shenzhen Airport. A terminal with 56 boarding bridges, several commercial ammenities and an external Ground Connection Terminal. I visited the site several times per weeks to verify that construction is being done according to the Fuksas design and approved drawings. I assisted to weekly official meetings with the client, BIAD and the contractors. I then produced photographic and written reports to the project manager in Rome, which who I communicated with everyday. We managed together to find solution for problems occuring in the construction process and other design contengencies. Occasionaly, I drew new details or re-modelise (using Rhino) parts of the projects to communicate our solution to the executant office, BIAD. My scope of work also included to send official letters to the client, BIAD, and contractors on behalf of Fuksas office. To conclude the project, I was responsible for the “40 most important items” punch list.

Along with the project manager from our Rome office,I was sent to Chengdu for 7 weeks to represent Fuksas for the collaborative work with the local partner CSWADI on a competiotion for a Cultural Centre in Chengdu. Within this period, I sustained and coordinated the conceptual approach in order to integrate it to chinese standards and expectations in matter of functions and codes.

I contributed to general conception with the team in Rome. Afterword, I have work on the final production, of architectural drawings (plans and section seen next page) as well as being in charge of coordinating and submitting the final documents for the submission on behalf of Fuksas. I also produced many analysis and graphic documents (see mapping beside) for the A3 - competition booklet, which I was also in charge of.

La maison Wolfers is a historic luxury jewellery maker first established in Brussels, Belgium in 1812.Fong Wong Architect and Associates has been com-missioned to design their first flagship store in Chi-na. The store is located in the podium of the Jin Mao Tower (designed by SOM), in Shanghai’s CBD. The mandate included the design the store façade and the interior. The project challenge is to see how to design for such a prestigious brand in a prestigious site - while reaching up to expectations of both Wolf-ers representatives from Belgium and China, which can have very diverse opinions.

I was in charge of everything related to the façade design, from design to construction. The proposal retained is a composition made by the assembly of 5 different modules. Each of them has the same size and is made of light-grey aluminium to match the existing façade. The variation made is on the aper-tures used for the façade lighting. The modules are configurated to get the effect of a shiny object. Win-dow display are integrated to the façade. The main doors handles have the shape of Wolfers logo, and are made of wrought iron, recalling the Art Nouveau

Dapeng peninsula is located in the Shenzhen Greater area and is the greenest area of the zone. With hectares of untouched natures, the community and local authorities of the district are making a collective effort for the sustainable development of the peninsula.

The main idea of project is to create a simple, but yet attractive addition to the existing building.We used tinted bamboo lamellas to control the light exposure and to avoid overheating. The design scheme is clear, with public and exhibition spaces at the lower level and administrative functions at the last level.

For this project, I provided a full concept and architectural design with all required documents, drawings, renderings and production of final submission documents.

Urban population is increasing at an unprecedented speed. Density’s growth is inevitable. The living space has to be extruded from the ground up to satisfy the need of dwelling area. Each skyscraper is like an isolated island. We created a new street to connect all these unjoined realities and we superposed it order to liberate the ground floor and let place to nature.

This new kind of typology, the elevated street, reproduces the qualities and infinite possibilities of the typical street. Central alley, variety of programs, human scale and freedom of plan.and section planning allows to have a new layer of street which makes possible a new range of activities, impossible in the typical tower. This new typology is ideal for social encounters, creating a lively, non-generic

Typically, CBD are organized through highly rigid grid. Our approach to this topology is radical, we break the grid. Buildings are no longer organize on single directions lines, but on multi-directional paths. The highrise buildings are orthogonally ori-entated to the main access, while the small scale buildings have their own independent orientation. This scheme facilitates the autonomy of each build-ings and gives a pleasant feeling of human scale. This organization opens to news possibilities at each points, where the user have options to choose where to go. The director grid pattern is continu-ing seamlessly on the building’s facade, creating a rhythm of lines that emphasizes movement through both, x and y axis.

The city council has launched a regeneration pro-gram to attract and increase touristic activities in the Village of Jiaochang Wei. The Dream House has the possibility to get direct access to the beach and is seeking for extra dwellable space. The new additions are unified by a continuous rib-bon connect all element of the lot. Within this sin-gular gesture, we integrated new functions, such as a beach bar café, a beach bench and and event ter-race, all to be enjoy by both guests and outsiders. The event terrace allows a structure space to host diverse events.The terrace can be use as stage, while the stairs and bleachers can be use by the assistance. Those elevated elements offer a great view, enabling to power to immerge yourself in the landscape.

Located between the Meixi lake and mountains, this site came out as an opportunity to create a soft architectural transition from the bucolic landscape to the built environment. The multi-functional complex host 2 main functions : public and commercial spaces and a factory for micro-electronic manufactured for the Chine Air Forces. The highly contrasted functions are hierachized by the general volume which is split in 2 parts : a pedestal taking the shape of a rock formation and supports the pure volumes.

For this project, I participated in the design development of the façades. All openings are designed on a gradient configuration and are relatives to the functions in order to get optimal lighting and framed views on the landscape..

Located within the area multi-functional complex of Meixi Lake, the villa is hosting important members from the Chinese Air Forces. The villa is split in 2 volumes - one is mostly adapted to host a family and the other one is dedicated to host conventions and major events. The 1200 sqm villa includes a wine cellar, a 12 cars parking underground parking and several multi-functional rooms.

For this part of the project, I provided a full concept and architectural design with all required documents, production of final submission documents.

Recently, soccer has reached an unprecedent suc-cess in Montreal, Canada. However, harsh winter climates call for indoor facilities for players to prac-tice their favorite sport all year long. The proposed site just west of the St. Michel Environmental Com-plex, a strategic location to bring positive energy to a lower income area . The public indoor soccer cen-tre in Montreal would allow winter play for at least 300 teams from across the city. The facility includes an indoor and an exterior 11x11 turf field, as well as a 5x5 outdoor field, which we have located on the roof terrace, facing the cafeteria area.

As it is located in a Environmental Complex, this building was design to reach LEED Silver standards.

01. L’alternance entre urbanité & naturalité / Le paysage créé par le CESM se situe à la jonction entre la pression urbaine et la pression inverse de l’aménagement paysager du parc; résultat de la naturalisation du site et de son expression sur l’avenue Papineau.

02. L’environnement cohésif /À l’image des mains croisées, le projet offre un potentiel d’exprimer la cohésion, malgré la dimension de son volume, entre l’importance de l’équipement public et son intégration au cadre naturel.

03. Organisation programmatique et circulation / Le projet s’organise autour d’une place publique centrale dédiée au soccer, qui sert de trait d’union entre l’aire de jeu extérieure et intérieure. L’alternance de plateaux et de percements favorise ce contact entre l’avenue, le bâtiment et le parc par une série de vues croisées.

04. Le dialogue des échelles / Le site comporte une variété d’échelles et de niveaux qui caractérisent sa diversité et la valeur de son paysage. Il nous importe de mettre en évidence cette accumulation en l’exprimant sur le caractère de l’architecture du bâtiment par un jeu alternant les ouvertures (repères dans la ville) et le gabarit des volumes ainsi crées.

Project plot: 90 straws inserted in identical gages creating modules that are all receiving equal stress. The di�erence percei ved in each module is the result of manual torsion. Each module therefore shifts from a static state to a dynamic state which once it has reached its fixe d positions, creates its own specificity. Once assembled to the built scale, the modules form a random configuration on the surface. This serves as an arc hitectural screen that dramatically amplifies the unpredictable and complex behavior of natural light. The merging of these events optimizes the s ensory experience of the spectator. This experience is constantly changing due to di�erent spatial-temporal variants but also combined with the sub jective interpretation of the spectator.
