Leaves is a club house for a residential community, located halfway up a mountain in Changsha, China. The interior covers 2000 square meters on two floors. The first floor holds a reception lobby, a swimming pool and a gymnasium, and the second floor is a leisure area with a book bar. A lighting installation of custom made LED leaves is held by white painted aluminum steel cables that also act as conductors. Light control technology shifts the glow of each leaf to imitate autumn wind. The rolling ceiling of the former building is retained to recall a wavy mountain.

- Production Technology
- We custom made LED lights in the shape of the leaves, using white painted aluminum steel cables hold the leaves and act as conductors to make them glow. Finally, light control technology is used to imitate the state of wind blowing leaves.
- Design Challenge
- The biggest challenge in this project is the light control technology, which controls the movement track and direction of the light of each leaf. In order to show the autumn wind blowing the scene of leaves.
- Project Duration
- The project started in August 2019 in Changsha and finished in June 2020 in Changsha, and was exhibited in Changsha inJune 2020.

- Research
- Located in Changsha, China, this project neighbors Yuehu Park and Colorful World, and lies against a large massif park abundant in natural resources.Fully respecting Changsha s native landforms and what the city has to offer culturally, the design seeks to integrate local massifs and structures, which are a source of inspiration for this project, into indoor spaces. Beyond that, the rolling ceiling of the former building is retained as a means to mirror what a wavy mountain is like.
- Inspiration
- We was inspired by the wind blowing through the leaves.Located in Changsha, China, this project neighbors Yuehu Park and Colorful World, and lies against a large massif park abundant in natural resources.
