Ex-Space

Dream gallery doesn’t have a beginning or an end. The spatial layout of the virtual gallery is constructed by the dreamer’s journey and unique experience in the space. The intent is to encourage dreamers to use artists work to curate their own experience and design the virtual space that can be shared with other dreamers in the virtual world.

Daily Light

Daily Light is composed of 15 space units, including 13 living units and 2 service units. Through arrangement and stacking, the middle corridor is shaped as the main passage connecting the space, and the stairs in the atrium connect the vertical space. The terrace formed after the units are stacked can be used as an open-air cinema.
