MANIFESTO

|Architecture for Retrospective Future|

We see architecture as a capacity of collective memory and information. The richness of space lies in the substance we retrieve cognitively and experientially. In our projects, we sought to engage the sensorial history of geographical, cultural and social realms to address the need of contemporary condition. We begin by excavating layers of information from its context as throughout as possible. Through this search and research process, we polish our architectural concept and sharpen our design methodology that will lead each project to a most specific solution. We hope to create architecture that belongs to its place; a future that respects its tradition; a place liberates collective aspiration.

|回顧的未来|

我們相信建築是歷史與未來的橋樑;追朔及認識過去才能帶來真正的創新。我們視建築為集體回憶和信息的載體，強調建築空間在認知與體驗上的豐富性。透過硏究及理解地理，文化和社會領域上的感官歷史，我們嘗試以空間設計回應當代建成環境的需要,致力建造俱地方性, 尊重傳統及包容集體意向的城市空間。
