The Design

About Fushan Ecological Greenway Design

Fushan Ecological is a greenway structure placed on the south side of Fushan Mountain, where the site has a height difference of 21 meters. The form is inspired by the pinecones found on the mountain, and each level is a twisted hexagon that becomes smaller toward the top. A concrete foundation supports a steel grid structure with inner and outer cylinders. The path surface is made of anti-corrosion wood or imitation wood. Inner steps allow quick passage, and outer ramps suit slow walking. Both paths meet at a viewing platform at the top.
