Genipabu

Genipabu is a sideboard designed for dining and living spaces. The upper section holds an integrated wine rack formed by rhythmic triangular structures that recall the shapes of the Genipabu dunes in Natal, Brazil. The door handles are sculpted with smooth curves that follow the wind-carved forms of the sand. The base structure is made of MDF covered with natural wood veneers, and the wine rack is machined with CNC equipment. External parts are made of certified solid wood finished with natural carnauba wax. The sideboard measures 2100 by 500 by 680 millimetres.

Dongguan Zhongshuge Library

Dongguan Zhongshuge Library is a bookstore interior located within a science and technology industrial park. The space spans three floors, with the main reading area rising from the first to the third floor. Gear elements form the central design language and serve as both decoration and bookshelves. A corridor on the second floor links a children's reading area, a forum area and a cultural and creative space with a coffee area. The children's area is inspired by a neutron source facility. Wood is used across nearly all elements to soften the industrial character.
