House M is a residence in Beijing, China, designed by Atelier About Architecture for a multigenerational family. Completed in 2025, it reworks a walled, low-light site through a sequence of courtyards, terraces, and atriums that draw daylight deep inside. The project turns inherited memories—trees at the window, terrazzo underfoot, red brick in shadow—into the home’s spatial and material framework.
House J sits in the western mountains of Beijing, China, where Atelier About Architecture reshapes a long-familiar house into a layered retreat for a scattered family. The freestanding house reworks its original shell into a series of gardens, halls, and rooms that hold changing generations together while keeping everyday life quietly independent. Light, topography, and an enduring courtyard structure the project’s new rhythm of return.
Residence LL is a multi-story house overlooking a lakeside view in southwestern China. Designed by Atelier About Architecture in 2023, the home spans roughly 500 square meters. Aiming to create a peaceful retreat, the architects addressed structural, spatial, and lighting challenges, using innovative materials like crushed marble and terrazzo.
