Our Philosophy

Architecture is a bridge between people and place — a medium through which human identity resonates with its surroundings. At Atelier Feng Xue, we see design not just as a physical construct, but as a way to support everyday rituals and enrich the stories of those who inhabit them.

Place-making, to us, is about shaping environments with character and meaning — where layered experiences unfold in quietly poetic ways.

Our Research

Alongside our practice ethos, AFX leads research into new models of housing through the Intermediate Housing Model (IHM).

The IHM framework reimagines the spaces of living — from private dwellings to shared thresholds and neighbourhood settings — as a way to nurture belonging, adaptability, and wellbeing. By bridging design, research, and public dialogue, we seek to create alternatives that move beyond isolated dwellings and fully communal living.

Working with architects, researchers, and community partners, we test these ideas across different contexts and housing types, building a design agenda that connects innovation with lived experience.
