The Netherlands Pavilion  World Expo 2025

The Netherlands Pavilion

The Netherlands Pavilion is an exhibition pavilion built for the World Expo 2025 in Osaka. The pavilion presents the historic shift of the Netherlands from resisting water to using water as an ally in clean energy, climate adaptation and sustainable living. Each visitor receives an Orb, a handheld sphere that guides the route and activates interactive installations, including a 360 degree dome film created with generative artificial intelligence. The structure is designed for disassembly, so all components can be reused after the exposition.

Fuma House

Fuma

Fuma is a three-story house in Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan. The site faces a busy railway to the east, so the first-floor east wall is set back, while the second-floor structure and the third-floor eaves block noise, vibration and street views. Gaps between these elements let natural light and outside ambiance reach the interior. The main living space is on the second floor and works like a single-story home. Reinforced concrete load-bearing walls and unbonded cables support cantilevers of 5.6 meters east and 3.2 meters south. Large glazed openings face the courtyard.

Park1538 Gwangyang Cultural Facility

Park1538 Gwangyang

Park1538 is located in a city with a long history of steel. The project turns this industrial past into a cultural place open to the public and introduces visitors to the material, the process, and the history of making steel. Steel is often seen as heavy and rigid, but this project shows another side of the material by expressing flexibility through form and space. A cantilever hall creates an open plaza below, while vertical ribs guide visitors through layered spaces and link the different levels of the building.

Xijiu Matured Liquor

Xijiu Matured Liquor is a packaging design for a Chinese liquor series. The bottle keeps the classic drum silhouette of the brand and refers to the circular form of a piece held in the Palace Museum, a shape linked with completeness and harmony in traditional Chinese culture. Age statements of 15 and 30 years are laser engraved as flowing ribbons. The cap uses a four sided auspicious shape and opens and closes smoothly. Inside, an original woodcut style illustration shows the landscape along the Chishui River and the brewing ingredients. The outer box is easy to carry and store.
