Yangguang City No.9 Residential House

Yangguang City No.9

Yangguang City No.9 is a residential interior design located in Xi'an, China, with a total area of 501 square metres. The layout is organised to support efficient movement between functions within a compact floor plan. Curved wall shapes and embedded light strips recall the tail feathers of the phoenix, a bird of Chinese mythology, and add depth to the rooms. Natural shell terrazzo and common red bricks lower material cost and help balance indoor humidity in a dry climate. Two side tables are made from a saw blade and from off-cut wood.

Yangguang City No.9 Residential House by Saiwen Liu has been identified as a creative example of architectural design by the A' Design Award. Yangguang City No.9 Residential House received the Silver A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2024. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is an international, juried, academic and meritocratic design accolade which honors exceptional design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
