YAU RESIDENCE: from concept to construction
The Yau Residence is the launch pad project for RANGE. From conceptual design, construction documentation, interior specifications and furnishing selections, to construction, the team has fully immersed themselves into a collaboration with the client that aspires to form poetic spaces that invite exploration, inspire reflection, and nurture belonging; an architecture meant to endure.
