About The Osmanthus Grace Canolfan Werthu

Mae'r Osmanthus Grace yn ganolfan werthu yn Wenzhou, Tsieina, a adeiladwyd ar safle o 450 metr sgwâr. Saif yr adeilad llinol rhwng Mynydd Cui Wei ac Afon Ou, gydag un rhan yn cyrraedd y dŵr. Mae cyfres o is-ofodau cysylltiedig o wahanol raddfeydd yn arwain ymwelwyr o fannau tywyll i rai golau. Mae nenfydau ar oledd yn gostwng llinellau golwg tuag at y dirwedd, ac mae ardal soddedig yn diffinio'r parth cyfarfod. Mae ffasadau llydan a luniwyd fel paentiadau hir yn lleihau'r gwahaniad rhwng y tu mewn a'r tu allan. Pren, carreg a phlanhigion yw'r prif ddeunyddiau. Mae'r cynllun hefyd yn caniatáu newidiadau defnydd yn y dyfodol.

Therefore, the project is a perfect response to traditional Chinese gardens.
Dimensions & Packaging: Site Area: 450 sqm.

Production Technology: The building is in linear shape, with a part sightly reaching the water. The inclined ceiling designed with directions lower the sights from visitors and guide them to nature. The sunken part in the building adds the independence and boundaries of meeting zone. The process of lowering sights draws visitors closer to the landscape, creating the dialogue between human and water, and setting resonance of reality and imagination. Façades with the shape of long paintings are crystal clean, eliminating the boundaries of indoor and outdoor. Time reveals its trace of flowing when four seasons are changing, and when days and nights are altering. Nature, becomes the main theme everywhere in the project.
Design Challenge: Mixing into the scenery is the special attribute of traditional Jiang Nan gardens. The space is built according to water scenery, guiding visitors to interact with the nature and taking them to join the landscape. The entrance of the project is designed relatively narrow after the adjustment of the architect to create a calm atmosphere and to show the nature most.
Research: The project is designed with great flexibility for renovation in the future. It also reserves space for kindergarten. In the future, this building can still fit into different scenarios even if its users and functions are not the same.
Inspiration: This project locates at the back of Cui Wei Mountain, facing Ou River. The owner would like to see an ideal residence being built here with the help of a quality urban lifestyle and great scenery with local culture.
'We wish every visitor can feel the calmness of time and interact with nature.' Walking circulation transforms from dark to bright, enriching light levels in the space, establishing atmosphere of great mountains in limited space.
Project Duration: The project started in April 2020 and finished in September 2020 in Wenzhou, China
Operation Flow: Main materials are selected as wood, stone, and plant, for they are the elements of nature, to decorate the space. Simpleness are emphasized through various levels.

With unique characteristics, art pieces that reflect regions and history both represent different humanity themes and label themselves as signs of the space at the same time. The flexibility eliminates boundaries.
