The Cloudscape of Haikou concentrates public reading and everyday amenities in a small waterfront building. Shenzhen Bay Culture Square operates among gardens, towers and a broader coastal landscape. Compare these with the Harbin and Quzhou accounts through the routes between building and ground.
The photographs offer different scales of encounter: distant silhouettes, approaches and inhabited interiors. Read those scales together rather than treating the buildings as isolated sculptural objects.
