From the architect: Within the small streets, the neighbourhood is transforming with new bigger buildings. The project is an attempt to utilise the small plot of land to meet its recent value, meanwhile creating a conversation with its surrounding

 Activities are arranged around the central well modelled after tropical shophouse of Southeast Asia to allow natural ventilations and gentle sunlights to get through every single room. The concrete blocks wrapping around the perimeters are especially designed for the project to interact with the adjacent sites with variations of manners - to keep privacy in different degrees. Collaborations with local concrete block manufacture help to update the contemporary vernacular material, the concrete block, for more sophisticate usages.
