Design Details
- Unique Properties
- Oriented by the theme of "migrating in the shallow mountains and wandering in the picturesque scenery", this oriental resort residence boasts a very rare terraced landscape with lush forests spreading out layer by layer. It creates a cozy abode that feels like walking through the woods and entering a painting, allowing guests to seek a simple yet exquisite vacation life in the foothills.
- Inspiration
- "With mountains and valleys in one's heart, one can find a forest and spring everywhere" is a portrayal of the Chinese people's pursuit of a natural residence, which has been passed down through generations. The design is based on the blueprint of "Travelers Among Mountains and Streams", inheriting the essence, gathering the cultural context, and entering the artistic conception, offering an urban resort experience that seamlessly integrates with nature.
- Research
- Urban architectural clusters enveloped in lush natural greenery, a three-dimensional migratory experience garden, integrating modern art with oriental cultural sentiment, and featuring mountain, stone, and forest landscapes that create scenic views throughout the four seasons.
- Challenge
- The most challenging part of the design is how to naturally interconnect the homecoming footpath with the sunken courtyard in the three-dimensional migratory path, and connect different themed landscapes. The flying rainbow corridor bridge and the cascading waterfall over the high wall offer a picturesque view of the shallow mountains.
- Realization and Technology
- Based on the unique characteristics of the terraced landform, a three-dimensional migratory tour path is designed, which showcases the urban architectural clusters surrounded by lush natural greenery. This urban oasis space is created with "painting within a painting" and "scenery within a scenery," exhibiting distinct layers and connecting multiple themed landscapes.
- Operation and Interaction
- The secret garden's spatial layout is well-structured with distinct layers, connecting various themed landscapes in a seamless manner. The Flying Rainbow Bridge, towering walls with cascading waterfalls, and the Jade Inkstone Forest Spring offer a picturesque experience of the shallow mountain landscapes.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project was launched in Beijing, China in November 2023, with the design phase lasting from November 2023 to February 2024. It has been completed and unveiled in May 2024.
- Specifications
- The area of the demonstration zone is 7,237 square meters.
