Practice Ideology
Galaxy Arch was founded in Shanghai by Ji Xin and Ge Jiaqi. The studio was established with the belief that good design should be poetic, inspire the soul, and awaken emotions. They focus on the comprehensive design of small to medium-sized public buildings, addressing technical challenges with an open mindset and keen observation. This humble design attitude consistently allows them to find new insights within conventional methods, transforming them into sources of creativity. The studio was selected for the China Emerging Architects List and has won several national and international design awards.
