CocoonStudio was established in Shanghai in 2018. The studio is based on contemporary architectural design practice. Starting from space, the studio also extends its thinking and vision in the fields of urban planning, operation planning, cultural research, etc., to face urban and architectural issues with a more comprehensive perspective and ability, and to be more precise and comprehensive thinking to find the foothold of contemporary architectural design.
In design practice, the studio focuses on the collision and integration of contemporary experience and traditional space, as well as the expression of traditional values in contemporary design. In a series of renovation experiments related to Chinese traditional houses, the studio explores the interweaving and mutual presentation of contemporary space concepts and traditional space frameworks, discovering the spatial value and unique experience hidden in relationships and dialogues. Such experience is naturally applied to a wider range of design practices, making the intertwined relationship, spatial experience and local cultural identity the focus and characteristics of the spaces designed by CocoonStudio.
