About Phoenix Tree Garden Teetuin

Phoenix Tree Garden is 'n teehuis-tuin geleë in 'n hutong-binnehof in Beijing. Die ontwerp verander 'n enkele groot ruimte in 'n reeks gekoppelde toneelplekke. 'n Voumuur van wolke en 'n geboë maandeur verskuif die interne as en verdeel die buitekant van die tuin van die binnekant. Klein brûe, waterweë en 'n gestapelde rooi rotsberg organiseer die nuwe landskaporde. Materiale sluit 'n staaltralie-brug, grys en gekleurde rondeklip-plaveisel en klein grys teëls in. Verskeie teekamers met verskillende uitsigte is binne 214,99 vierkante meter geskep.

Unique Properties
Designers transform the language of traditional gardens here to get a new garden conception, by dealing with a series of relationship between elements, such as the relationship between canals and clouds, the relationship between pavilion and the canal, the relationship between rocks and waterfalls. The design makes this small yard have the appearance of today's architectural space, while also having the poetry of traditional gardens.
Dimensions & Packaging
The project covers a total of 214.99 square meters. The transformation strategy is to turn a single large space to a number of scenic spots linked garden space, and transform the vague boundary between the original building and the courtyard indoor and outdoor into a space sense of alternating between the garden and the building tea house, and between the outdoor and the indoor.

Production Technology
Designers use the red rock laminar stack, the light-transparent bridge of the steel grille, the gray and colored cobblestone paving, and the 10 cm small gray tile paving. These materials give the garden a simple and authentic atmosphere.
Design Challenge
The shortcomings of the base are similar courtyard structures, the courtyards that are seen at a glance, and the current state of the house being demolished. Designers used the folding wall and the moon door to change the internal space axis, and organized the new landscape order with small bridges, waterways and stacked mountains.
Research
The owner rented a yard in the hutong, and asked Atelier ZZ to design a tea house garden. It is hoped that the garden will include the elements of traditional gardens, and have the true feeling of traditional gardens. It is not allowed to change the plane position of the original building and hope to have a phoenix tree. We designed and directed the stack of red rock mountain. Several tea rooms with different views and feelings were made in less than 200 square meters.
Inspiration
Some elements come from the reference to Suzhou classical gardens, such as the small arch bridge, borrowed from the static bridge in the net master garden, the stone paving on the ground borrowed from the linear stone paving of the bathing gull small garden. Designers designed and directed the stack of red rock mountain. Several tea rooms with different views and feelings were made in less than 200 square meters.
Project Duration
The project started in April 2018 in Beijing and finished in March 2019 in Beijing.
Operation Flow
Cloud wall is set at the entrance of the garden. The curved moon door twists the axis to separate the outside and inside of the garden.
