"You will notice how his style was more conservative. The orderly depiction of the cathedrals and residences in Britain, his first stop in Europe, are a contrast to the rapid free strokes and colorful rendering of the buildings in Germany, where he was inspired by Bauhaus architecture and modern glass-structured buildings."

Tong Jun ended his tour earlier than planned to take on the role of a teacher at Northeast University in China for an autumn semester.

The studio later expanded its practice to Chongqing and Guiyang, Guizhou province.
