Sohelou St.Marc Catholic Chapel, designed by Only Human, has a theme of weight developed into the design by placing the first huge dark cross, as if it is falling, onto the roof to give its weight down onto the people inside in Thailand. This coffin-like chapel, seen from heaven’s eye-view, provides an experiential journey from the dark and heavy to the light and weightlessness guided by the cross as a solemn reminder to us all of the Jesus’s sacrifice.

China Grain Oil Exhibition Center, designed by Archermit, has integrated trees and courtyards, creating the concept of a Place with a yard in the forest. “Return” was the core architectural strategy at the beginning of the design of the exhibition center. Most of the ground floor of the architecture is suspended to return space to nature and people involved in it. The suspended design of the ground floor laid a good foundation for many later interesting designs, such as the courtyard in the field, the aerial courtyard, the entrance corridor bridge, the roof joyride, etc.

Foster + Partners is a global studio for sustainable architecture, urbanism, engineering and design, founded by Norman Foster in 1967.
