SOCIAL CIRCLE at Vienna Design Week πŸ”΄
This autumn, we joined Vienna Design Week (Sept 26–Oct 5, 2025), one of Europe’s longstanding design festivals. It drew diverse perspectives, and the discussions we had there still echo.
πŸ”΄
We presented SOCIAL CIRCLEβ€”a suspended rotunda built from 400 panels. Stepping inside surrounded visitors with our architectural projects, like a living archive. It highlighted those moments when design connects people, from initial models to lived-in spaces.
πŸ”΄
Panels were organized by dopamine colors, creating a spectrum that guided movement through the circle. Drawing from KonMari principles, it turned our work into a unified landscape, showing how color influences mood, rhythm, and atmosphere. Visitors shared how it evoked energy, optimism, and clarity in architecture.
πŸ”΄
The installation became a spot for pause, reflection, and conversationβ€”on cities, communities, and shared environments. We connected with curious attendees exploring how architecture fosters human bonds, creativity, and well-being. Those rotunda talks left a mark.
πŸ”΄
Thanks to Vienna Design Week for the invite and warm welcome. We left with fresh ideas, new connections, and a stronger sense of design’s role in uniting people.

πŸ“£We have been longlisted for Archello Awards 2025!

πŸ†Designed by CLOU Architects, the Wuhan Snow World has been selected for the Archello Awards 2025 Longlist in the Sports and Leisure Building of the Year category!

❄️Located in Huangpi District, Wuhan, adjacent to Mulan Ancient Town, the project is a vast mixed-use entertainment complex encircling a central lake, integrating leisure, sports, and retail facilities. The 500-metre-long ski slope and expansive public terraces interact with a pixel-inspired faΓ§ade, together creating a multi-dimensional, all-season mountain resort experience.

πŸ“£Hangzhou Liangzhu West Coast Kindergarten by CLOU Architects has been shortlisted in the "Education Project" category of the Dezeen Awards China 2025!

West Coast Kindergarten is a design tailored for its site, aiming to ignite children's curiosity through outdoor spaces that extend from indoors. CLOU hopes that in such a simple, unadorned environment, every child's nature and creativity can be unleashed.

We’ve always had a soft spot for natural textures.πŸͺ΅

πŸͺ΅ Technically not a colour, but we felt that Wood tones deserved it's unique spotlight. We use wood to highlight and soften spaces, to create contrast between bold, colourful and cool spaces.

πŸͺ΅ Changing with light and touch, wood evolves over time. Its tones shift, its surfaces age gracefully, reminding us that architecture can be both enduring and adaptable.

πŸͺ Is Brown really just a neutral tone?

πŸͺ More than background, brown adds weight, warmth, and depth.

πŸͺ Rich and varied, it recalls earth, stone, and clay. Depending on light, it can soften a space or give it drama, shifting from understated to bold in a single surface.

πŸͺ For us, brown is about connection. It anchors architecture to landscape, balances modern lines with organic tones, and creates places that feel both rooted and warm.

πŸ‘πŸ‘We’re softening things up with a touch of peach.πŸ‘πŸ‘

πŸ‘ Peach brings a sense of softness to architecture. It warms surfaces with a gentle glow, creating spaces that feel welcoming and relaxed without losing refinement.

πŸ‘ In our projects, we love using peach to create subtle highlights that feel fresh, contemporary, and a little playful. It works beautifully in spaces that invite people to slow down and feel at ease.

Gold is not only a colour, it’s a glow✨

✨ Gold in our projects is never just surface shine. It’s a play of reflection, warmth, and depth β€” where spaces interact with light to create bold atmospheres with daylight and artificial light.

✨ In our projects, gold works as a subtle accent, elevating details and framing key moments.

πŸ’ΏπŸ’ΏSilver, a colour that moves us!πŸ’ΏπŸ’Ώ

πŸ’Ώ Silver is a colour of reflection. It shifts with its surroundings, catching light and echoing movement.

πŸ’Ώ For us, silver is about adaptability. It frames space with quiet strength, balancing bold gestures with restraint and giving spaces a sleek timeless edge.

What happens when architecture gives you lemons? πŸ‹πŸ‹πŸ‹

πŸ‹ Bold, bright, and impossible to ignore.

πŸ‹ Whether accenting escalators, marking transitions, or drawing attention to playful edges and forms, yellow offers clarity and contrast.

πŸ‹ Across these projects, you’ll find yellow doing more than decorating. It highlights movement, scale, and interaction in spaces designed to be felt as much as seen.

Violet is such a mood! 🫐

🫐 The interplay of violet with light creates depth and nuance. In natural daylight it feels soft and expansive, while under artificial light it becomes intense and immersive.

🫐 For us, using violet is about nuance. It is never just background, but a layer that enriches texture and emotion, turning everyday architecture into a memorable experience.
