Worldview
Against the dogmatic adherence to
“Form Follows Function”
in the architectural world,
We at the Wonder-Planning Design Studio
believe in “Form Follows Worldview”.
We believe that architecture, interior design, landscape, and ornamental arts
collectively represent
a city, an institution, a family, and an individual’s
overall perception of the world.
Thus, architecture is a vessel for Worldview,
which is the guiding principle
behind our creative endeavors.
Creation Process
Our creative process is distinctive.
First, we deeply immerse ourselves
in the local geography, culture,
and human environment of a project’s setting,
while also understanding the client’s
industry, life, and aspirations.
This allows us to fully grasp
the project’s unique worldview.
Second, during design,
we employ sketching as a core method
to explore possibilities freely,
breaking away from conventional constraints.
Through sketches,
we maintain a consistent worldview across all scales
—from urban layout to architectural details.

Global Practice
At Wonder-Planning, our approach fundamentally
adheres to “Form Follows Worldview,”
ensuring that every design emerges from
and remains faithful to a coherent, lived reality.
Our belief is to create Wonder
—spaces that are not only visionary and holistic,
but also deeply resonant and human-centered.
Our dedication has brought us clients and friends
from across the globe in recent years.
From conference centers in the jungles of Suriname
to ocean-inspired landmarks in the Maldives,
from Poland's Chopin Music University
to high-end administrative hotels in Malaysia's capital,
our designs are taking root worldwide.
Cultural Tourism
Cultural and tourism projects represent
the core of our design practice,
where we most fully express our Worldview.
We collaborate annually with industry leaders
such as OCT Group,
the world’s third-largest theme park operator,
and global hotel chains
including Hilton, Marriott, and Huazhu(H-Hotel)
on themed entertainment
and hospitality developments.

Technology Industrial
Another key focus of our practice
is technology industrial park projects.
With our group headquarters located in Suzhou,
we have been deeply involved
in the planning, design, and operation of
industrial parks in the region.
Among these, the Suzhou Industrial Park
— a 30-year collaboration
between Chinese and Singaporean governments
— is recognized as one of the world's
highest-standard industrial parks.
To us, design is more than a business or a path to realizing architectural dreams—it is a way to connect deeply with cultures and vibrant minds bred from this planet. It enables us to continually evolve our worldview through meaningful engagement. We are profoundly grateful to the friends who have made such transformative experiences possible.
Services
Our design services cover
architecture, interiors, and landscapes
—from conceptual and schematic design
to detailed development, construction documentation,
and on-site coordination.
With over two decades of worldwide practice,
we have built a network of top-tier consultants
and experts across the globe.
This enables us to collaborate
with the most suitable specialized teams
on projects anywhere in the world,
ensuring high-quality execution.
We provide our clients not only
creative, worldview-driven design concepts,
but also reliable, end-to-end professional service.

top-tier clients such as
Harvard Business School, China Resources Land,
SHVO, East Japan Railway Company, Tsinghua University,
Vanke Group, LUXELAKES Group,

who carry a unique Worldview and a creative Vision
—to co-create lasting Wonders for humanity.

—an artificial deep-sea & perpetual sunset world.

Consulting
In the latest wave of Chinese enterprises expanding globally,
many of our clients and strategic partners
have turned to us for overseas projects.
Trusting in our team’s expertise and years of
collaborative insight into their needs,
we have participated extensively in the planning and design of
industrial parks in countries such as
Vietnam, Malaysia, Ras Al Khaimah (UAE), and Poland.
Another key focus of our practice is technology industrial park projects.
With our group headquarters located in Suzhou,
we have been deeply involved in the planning, design, and operation
of industrial parks in the region.
Among these, the Suzhou Industrial Park
— a 30-year collaboration between Chinese and Singaporean governments
— is recognized as one of the world's highest-standard industrial parks.
Insights
Beyond design, we engage in full-cycle project delivery from planning to operation. For instance, during tourism peak seasons in May and October, we partner with Nanjing Museum Group to transform classical gardens into thematic festival venues and vibrant marketplaces.
Thus, from the initial concept, our spatial designs integrate branding, IP development, and media strategy —all aimed at captivating the hearts and minds of end-users for our clients and partners.
