It seeks to embody a harmonious, peaceful, relaxed, and warm humanistic landscape atmosphere with a strong sense of ceremony and artistry. The emotion-free warm spaces aim to provide people with physical and mental relaxation and allow the living to heal their sorrows while offering a resting place for the deceased. The goal is to achieve a symbiotic and joyful coexistence between humans and nature.

Chinese cemeteries are very traditional, especially in terms of architecture. We want to create this building in a warmer and more healing way.

There are many traditional cemeteries in China, and we are fortunate to have met homeowners who share our ideas to implement this new cemetery architecture. This is a commissioned project.

The project has been completed and the owner is currently using it.

We are very interested in using design to change the traditional form of an industry. Introducing different elements into traditional industries will stimulate more people to think.

The elements we use are still traditional Chinese funeral elements, but the presentation will be more modern, concise, and efficient in utilizing space and materials.

This is the name of the owner's brand, meaning peace and tranquility.

The exterior walls of the building are made of paint to simulate the local soil, as the project is located halfway up the mountain. We hope that although it is modern, local elements can be seen, so from the bottom of the mountain, it looks like a protruding rock on the mountain.

The design work is independently completed by our team.

Because it was our first time working on cemetery architecture, we visited many local and domestic cemetery projects and had discussions with experienced designers

How to balance tradition and modernity is our biggest challenge.

This will be an opportunity to change China's funeral industry. We have been invited to attend the upcoming national industry conference in June and give a speech on this project.

Actually, this is a great experience. We have pondered many topics about death and will cherish everything we have now even more.

Because the project is surrounded by the National Giant Panda Forest Park, pandas and their living environment are the design inspiration. Through our own research on the methodology of imagery architecture, we present a sci-fi rural architecture.

The project aims to become a landmark building in this area, with pandas and local landscape elements as its design imagery. The main functional space has been elevated, and the elevated floor serves as an area for surrounding people's activities, improving the utilization rate of the site.

We have informed the owners and local government of the award news, and they will promote it on different media platforms. We will also continue to follow up on the usage of subsequent projects to improve our future designs.

Almost at the moment of seeing the venue, I had a rough idea, and then visited the venue multiple times, experiencing the lighting, surrounding nature, and people's activities from morning to night. Later, I added the idea of starry sky, and the plan was completed in about a month.

This is a design commission. The local area is an important entrance to the Giant Panda National Forest Park and also the main entrance to more than ten villages. We need to balance the display of pandas and their living environment, as well as the living habits of the local people, and even involve this project in their lives.

The project has been completed and the owner and local government have started using it.

Before each design, we would first visit the project site and spend a lot of time studying the connection between local nature, culture, and project functions, before deciding whether to accept the project design commission. What attracts us to this project is the complexity of the natural environment, functions, surrounding population, and project objectives.

Our designs all come from nature, so perhaps nature is the teacher of our project.

We hope to make some breakthroughs in this place, which are related to the local culture but not to the local architecture. There are too many newly built rural buildings in China that are related to the local residential architectural style, but there is no in-depth study of the site and what kind of architectural form the local area needs.

The site is located between the magnificent landscape of Longmen Mountain, we took the nature of Longmen Mountain as the inspiration for the design and came up with the architectural image of “Woyun”. It means lying high in the cloud and mist, and means “returning to seclusion”. “Woyun Platform” expresses Archermit thoughts and explorations on “people's inner longing to return to nature, nature and tradition”.

We applied our own methodology of imagery architecture to design this project.

We have a professional lighting team and construction team who have contracted with us.

Realized the starry sky effect of building overhead floors.

We have used many traditional materials to combine lighting to form new methods, such as the starry sky effect of the overhead layer. Initially, we wanted to form it through direct shooting of the spotlight, but the effect was poor. Later, we found that the effect was related to the thickness of the punching plate and the size of the hole. Therefore, we conducted multiple sample tests with the manufacturer and ultimately chose the current presentation method.

Different user groups need relatively independent spaces in the same site and building, but we do not want to present this space solely through isolation. Therefore, we integrated elements of local mountains and water into the building, and water is connected and circulated from top to bottom in the building. This issue is something we spent a lot of time pondering.

We want to provide a method for similar projects around the world, where rural architecture not only needs to meet the needs of homeowners, but also needs to be connected to the lives of local people. It can not only create a style similar to local architecture, but also excel in blending with a larger environment.

We are improving the Imagery Architecture Theory guided by Eastern thinking logic, which is a methodology on architectural design practices and aesthetics. This project is undoubtedly an important one that strengthens our research direction.

Architectural design will be our lifelong profession. At the beginning, none of our three partners had a degree in architectural design, which gave us different perspectives on the relationship between architecture, nature, and human.

Archermit was founded in Chengdu, China in April 2015.The pioneer and practitioner of the Imagist Theory of Architecture, and the pioneer representative of the School of Imagist Architecture. The core concept of Archermit is to create a new multidimensional space experience, and create a poetic space environment with emotion and vitality. Pursue the design of symbiosis with nature and coexistence with the site, advocating refined design and full-process design exploration mode. Attach great importance to the integration and exploration of the contemporary and locality of Chinese architecture, and create a spiritual field that belongs to and transcends the local. Root the balance of design in the relationship among traditional cultures, modern technology and social economy and responsibility, and strive to become the disseminator and creator of Chinese culture and civilization.

It is a means to deal with the relationship between architecture, nature and people.
