The Exhibition The Mirrors of Zlín was created for the occasion of 700 years of history of the city of Zlín, which manifested as a series of multimedia installations in the chateau park. The first of the three installations work with the distinctive perspective of writer Pavel Kosatík on the evolution of the city and its surroundings, which we subsequently complemented and summarised with illustrations.

“City house” is situated on the outskirts of Kraków, in the dense single-family houses neighborhood, with a great view over the hilly landscape of the Bielańsko – Tyniecki Landscape Park.

the project was led by hérault arnod architectures jointly with artist krijn de koning who helped sculpt the viewing structure.

New permanent exhibition for the Kysuce Museum. “History of Čadca and surroundings” Space for the exhibition. We are opening doors on the second floor of the Kysuce Museum. We do not enter a corridor, but a kind of foreground of the exhibition. It is illuminated thanks to the new window and open door. You can also see directly into the exhibition through it. The floor flows from space to space. We’re curious about the history of our town, so we enter the exhibition.

Built on the riverside terrace of Yangshuo Sugar House, White Bloom Tower is a central installation for the 2023 New Year’s celebration to be set ablaze to welcome the new year. The site, where the installation is located, was once a dock for the old sugar factory to deliver goods and is now the space of the Sugar House facing the Li River landscape, thus making it an iconic place. After burning in the New Year celebration in 2023, White Bloom Tower will be rebuilt on the hill enclosed by the hotel, standing in the woods as if it is part of them.

the small house stands on a row of slender pillars, giving the impression of floating amid the surrounding treetops.
