Unique Properties

All buildings face the streams and old trees, making the internal space more mysterious and enticing. They also face towards the provincial highway, making the homestay buildings more prominent and accessible. In addition to functional fulfillment, the architect wants to well integrate the new building into Dajing Village while keeping its independence and maintaining its own style.

Production Technology

The application of common materials, such as concrete, wood-like aluminum, glass, and brick, seems to conceal the building in this village. Such a natural way can let people get fully integrated and not get distracted.

Design Challenge

Dajing, a poor village located in Renhua County, Shaoguang City, Guangdong Province, has its history dating back to Ming Dynasty. Inside the village mainly are brick-concrete structured houses, and there are several century-old camphor trees.

Project Duration

The project started in January 16, 2019 in Shaoguan and finished in May 17, 2021 in Shaoguan.

Operation Flow

As the master plan shows, the design follows the basic structure of village while integrating its own style by arranging the buildings like an enclosed courtyard.

Research

With the homestay project, designers aim to promote the development of Dajing Village, bring more attention to old village, old camphor trees, and strive to pursue a sound, integrated development of people's life, agricultural activities, and ecology.

Inspiration

The guiding philosophy for the design is to create a paradise in the mountains and forests for visitors to gain the sense of belonging and find inner peace in this old village. By building the relationship between the nature environment in Dajing Village and the site, it aims to provoke people to explore how to align the plan layout based on the surrounding environment.
