LUO Studio created a beautiful new timber construction bridge in Jiangmen, China that is both breezy and protects from the elements. It’s a sustainable design that connects with the history of this region in which tidal flats were traditionally connected with many bridges to connect land areas over fish ponds. With rapid urbanization in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, many local villagers have abandoned the traditional fishing lifestyle in favor of an urban lifestyle. As a re...

The office building at 80 M Street SE in Washington, D.C., might not stand out if you walked past it.  It sits comfortably between several other office buildings, all sporting the same modern exterior, glass window panes and steel beams. It’s a short stroll away from the Navy Yard Metro station, the waterfront and Nationals Park, the home of Washington’s baseball team. But that outward appearance belies what’s inside. A recent addition to the structure’s top three floors makes the Capi...
