Qibie Arcadia is a residential renovation project located in Yunnan Province, China. We used local materials and construction methods, collaborating with local craftsmen to maintain the local lifestyle while providing a comfortable living environment. It allows visitors to stay for a week or longer, fully integrating with the local villagers, and creates a shared living space for two different groups. We hope that the courtyard project becomes an integral part of the village, and sets a new standard for the village's new houses, introducing practical innovations for the local residents.
