About Lemon Grass Famolavolana ny Atitrano Trano Fisakafoanana
Lemon Grass dia atitrano ara-barotra misy fampiasana maro ao Sanya, Sina, izay mampifangaro toerana fisotroana kafe, bara, ary trano fisakafoanana amin'ny rihana roa. Ny varavarana miforitra sy ny tafo mivoaka lalina dia manamaizina ny fetra eo amin'ny ao anatiny sy ny ivelany, ary ny hazo voanio notazonina dia manome alokaloka voajanahary. Ny akora eo an-toerana toy ny vato volkanika, ny lalotra manana endrika fasika, ary ny fanaka penjy dia maneho ny tontolo tropikaly. Ny fampangatsiahana pasifa sy ny fifehezana ara-tontolo iainana marani-tsaina dia manatsara ny fahombiazana, ka mamorona toerana mifanaraka amin'ny toetrandro izay mampiray ny asa sy ny toetra manokan'ny faritra.

- Unique Properties
- This project creates a leisure space in Sanya through mixed-use formats. Daytime coffee and nighttime drinks on the first floor shift via folding doors, while an independent restaurant upstairs offers intimacy. Preserved coconut groves, shaded eaves, and local volcanic rock and sand-textured walls bring tropical charm. Passive cooling and community activity planning enhance climate adaptability and sustainability, embodying locality, flexibility, and ecological symbiosis.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- Tailored for the tropical coast, folding aluminum doors use Low-E glass, roof eaves are sun-optimized, and wall insulation pairs with VRV AC and carbon dioxide-sensing fresh air systems. Volcanic rock counters and fluorocarbon-coated panels resist salt and corrosion. Intelligent systems link environmental monitoring, electric shading, and energy control, ensuring technical integration enhances spatial quality and operational efficiency.

- Production Technology
- Rooted in Hainan's climate and culture, local volcanic rock forms the bar, wood-grain aluminum panels add warmth with moisture resistance, and sand-textured walls enhance breathability. Soft furnishings use treated solid wood and local rattan for durability. Preserved coconut trees, permeable paving, corrosion- and termite-resistant wood, and rustproof metal join natural ventilation and shading to build a low-maintenance sustainable space.
- Design Challenge
- The mix of daytime coffee, nighttime drinks, and an upstairs restaurant maximizes space. Folding doors and coconut grove shading offer climate-adaptive design, while volcanic rock bars and wood-grain aluminum add local warmth. Courtyard and roof blur boundaries for interaction. Future smart doors and mist cooling will further balance flexibility, ecology, and cultural expression to enhance user experience.
- Research
- Rooted in Sanya's climate and mixed-use demands, this study used site surveys, climate data, BIM modeling, and material testing with architects, craftsmen, and operators. Results show folding doors cut energy use 28 percent, local materials boost identity, and day-night switching raises efficiency 45 percent. This sets new tropical design standards, proving localized strategies unite value, benefit, and innovation.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by Hainan's tropical scenery and slow life, the design draws on Sanya's sea breezes and coconut groves. Traditional open structures guide the use of operable doors, windows, and shading eaves to blur indoors and outdoors. Southeast Asian layouts and Li-style materials like volcanic rock and wood shape a tropical tone. Day-night commercial layering and preserved vegetation reflect local nature, culture, and commerce.
- Project Duration
- The project started in July 2023 and finished in October 2023 in China.
- Operation Flow
- BIM design aligned structure and landscape to preserve trees, while on-site sample testing avoided rework. Steel structures and custom furniture were fabricated simultaneously, artistic paint tested after hidden works, and doors installed alongside smart debugging. Parallel workflows cut construction time by 30 percent, and real-scene sampling ensured design effects, unifying architecture, nature, function, and aesthetics.
