My architectural style can be best described as a blend of natural and modern. At Midori, we strive to make our buildings as sustainable as possible without compromising on client’s requirements or our architectural vision. We employ computational design (algorithms and simulations) to arrive at the best possible design by considering the natural topography and climate. We believe in design that aims to protect the environment and natural resources, recreating urban areas and buildings that are designed to fully cover their energy requirements without inducing environmental damage. This organic process results in buildings that are futuristic and green.
Whenever we design a building, we try to blur the lines between the inside and the outside. It is this delicate balance that is enhanced by the aesthetics and energy efficiency at its core. We also integrate renewable energy systems into our buildings that aims at reducing the building’s carbon footprint. In short, our architectural style can be described as daring, futuristic forms, inspired, powered by clean energy, and generated by employing the biophilic approach that is driven by climate responsive design strategies.
Aero Hive in Hong Kong, for instance, aims to challenge the common belief that contemporary tall buildings cannot be ventilated naturally due to their height and offer pause from the typical hermetically sealed glass-boxes, serving as a model of sustainability. Aero Hive is a breathing entity; the breath transpires through vertical diaphragms in the form of green sky. Aerodynamic architectural design is realized by taking into consideration building orientation, position, form, and plan variations. The wind flow to the indoor spaces is carried using wind-scooping and the ‘venturi’ effect through the traversing green diaphragms.
We are committed to using advanced technology and simulation techniques to produce architecturally pleasing work while pushing the boundaries of performative design.
