The office of an architect is perhaps a special project in one's oeuvre complete. One is no longer just an architect crafting ideas to meet the requirements proposed by others, but now faces one's own desires, both as architect and as client: What are the spatial qualities that one needs? How to best stimulate ideas and inspirations? Considering it is the place where those ideas and inspiration are born, how could it be shaped by and speak for them? With essays, projects, and interviews, the 2019 spring volume of Architecture China, Architects' Offices, offers a look into the offices of 14 outstanding Chinese architects: Atelier FCJZ, ZAO/standardarchitecture, MAD Architects, OPEN Architecture, Atelier Deshaus,Vector Architects, Neri&Hu Design and Research Office, AZL Architects, Archi-Union Architects, Atelier AZ+, People's Architecture Office, ArchMixing, Original Design Studio and NATURALBUILD. Additionally, Pritzker Prize winner Wang Shu reveals his desk in the cover imagery.
