This book presents a compelling exploration of architectural practice designed to navigate the dynamic urban landscapes of China & beyond. The book showcases 19 diverse projects from Jiang’s studio, reflecting a novel approach to architecture that engages deeply with social, cultural, technological, & environmental issues. This collection offers insights into how architecture can address the complexities of urban life while preserving & enhancing cultural & environmental values.Rather than adhering to conventional architectural norms, Jiang’s practice emphasizes the creation of meaningful, context- sensitive designs that foster a profound connection between people and their environment. Through a range of projects, from high-rise buildings to urban interventions and civic structures, the monograph highlights a non-linear design process that blends spatial experience with cultural relevance and environmental sensitivity. It underscores the importance of forging a unique sense of place and identity in architecture, advocating for designs that resonate with both local and global contexts.
