The original two-story light steel structure building is situated in the heart of the city, where is full of homogenous stores around. Therefore, we exploit different manual bricklaying crafts to pile up and modify the exterior walls thence elevate the facade.
And in order to distinguished with the adjacent buildings, yet at the same time to reinforcing the structure without destroying the overall proportion. Thereupon, accomplished a well balance in safety measures and visual presentation.
