The Design

About Central Mansion Woonhuis

Central Mansion is een woningbouwproject gerealiseerd in Hainan. Het project beslaat 128.600 vierkante meter en is opgezet als twee clusters die worden verbonden door een landschappelijke leefas, waardoor een plan ontstaat met één as en meerdere clusters. Een themagerichte gemeenschapstuin biedt gedeelde buitenruimte voor alle leeftijden. De hoogbouwzones bepalen het gevelbeeld langs de stedelijke snelweg, terwijl de laagbouwzones een rustiger, privé woonklimaat ondersteunen. De gevels zijn afgewerkt met beige grofzandige steenverf en champagnekleurige aluminium panelen die doen denken aan de kokospalmen van Hainan.

Behind the Design

Unique Properties: The project innovatively designs a community theme garden that fits the property of the plot, and seamlessly connects the landscape life axis across the two clusters to form a planning pattern of one axis and multiple clusters, presenting an immersive island life field for all periods and ages. It advocates the concept of ecological, compound and healthy park-like community, and is committed to improving living comfort.
Dimensions & Packaging: The project covers a total of 128600 square meters. In terms of building materials, it mainly uses the more artistic beige coarse sand real stone paint, which fits with the blue sea and blue sky of Hainan, and partially uses champagne aluminum plate as the focus and outline of the line, which better restores the concept of coconut tree.

Production Technology: In terms of design ideas, to ensure the interaction and symbiosis of the two communities, to create a landscape life axis to connect the community, forming a multi-dimensional, multi-level community group. And fully explore the characteristics of their respective theme communities, with high-rise building areas to create image cover and ritual life for the city, with multi-storey building areas to emphasize private life.
Design Challenge: From the initial stage of design to the basic landing of the main body of the project, the project encountered many difficulties in realizing the coordination and planning of landscape and architecture, the transition between architecture and interior, and the effect control of the later landing. One of the biggest challenges was how to organize the main axes of the two plots and how to arrange the spatial nodes.
Research: Hainan has a tropical monsoon climate, high temperature and rain, typhoons and other extreme weather is common. With the construction of international tourism island and free trade port, the number of people settling down and vacationing has increased, and some residential communities have not fully considered the climate characteristics and poor living experience, so it is necessary to carry out relevant research.
Inspiration: The form is based on the concept of coconut trees unique to Hainan, extracted and translated into architectural line elements, which complement the landscape greening in the community. The scheme highlights the facade image along the urban expressway, strengthens the facade expression of the public construction of the house, and establishes the cover of the city display, aims to create a green home that blends with nature and creates a cultural place that inherits Hainan characteristics.
Project Duration: The project started in August 2023 in Hainan and finished in October 2025 in Hainan.
Operation Flow: In the initial stage of the design of this project, the designers actively cooperated with various majors, strengthened the interaction with construction drawing designers, and checked their results. In the middle stage of the design, the facade control manual was developed for each sub-item building, and the details of the facade material and construction methods were expressed in detail.
