About Dowell DoThink 集合住宅

Dowell DoThinkは、中国・杭州に位置する敷地面積103,566平方メートルの集合住宅である。本設計は、中庭を備えた現代的な都市型住居と、庭園の中に配置された高層住宅とを融合させている。各住戸には独立したプライベート中庭が設けられ、一つの住まいを六つの庭が支えるという伝統的な江南様式の中庭建築から着想を得ている。石材、自然石塗装、高級塗料により統一感のある落ち着いたファサードを構成し、埋め込まれた金属ラインがミニマルな色調にリズムを与えている。エントランスのランドスケープ、中央庭園、そしてクラスターガーデンが、共有のオープンスペースを豊かに広げている。

Production Technology
To ensure an overall unified facade effect, materials like stone, natural stone coating, high-grade paint are selected for the high-rise residential buildings to decorate their simplistic and modest facade. The simpleness revealed by the stone materials and the partially inlaid metal lines play a dynamic rhythm in the minimalist tone.
Design Challenge
The biggest challenge lies in innovation. It is not easy for a real estate development project, because there are many difficult and unexpected problems like budget control, schedule of relevant procedures and others during the construction. From the design to construction, all parties have made great efforts.
Research
The plot where Chinoiserie Mansion locates is also called the "West Creek of Xiaoshan District". Along the riverbank that stretches over 1000 meters, the project boasts two major product types: "contemporary urban residence with courtyards"and "high-rise residence in the courtyard". The ingenious design fosters such a terrific integration of prosperity and landscape.
Inspiration
The city is upgrading, so does its people's pursuit of dwelling quality. Therefore, we needed a project to demonstrate confidence backed by our culture, and the inherent preference for the courtyard. Chinoiserie Mansion makes its debut under such momentum, serving as a return to tradition, as well as an innovation.
Project Duration
October 2018-December 2021
Hangzhou City, China
Operation Flow
The designers considered not only the facade and house type, but also the spatial layout and living atmosphere. All details show a pleasant scale, from the entrance landscape to central garden and cluster garden, creating comfortable spatial experiences. The courtyard stresses privacy that each household has an independent courtyard. Different from the Chinese-style solemn and tediousness, the design injects more vitality into the space to interpret a positive living attitude.
