Unique Properties: The project adopts a symmetrical layout, simple and pure lines, and Chinese-style spatial order. The architecture features concise yet lively lines, and delicate, elegant tones. The slightly curved roof is a modern interpretation of traditional roofs. The overall building appearance inherits the charm of traditional Jiangnan architecture.
Dimensions & Packaging: Drawing inspiration from Xunyang Tower built in Jiujiang in the Song Dynasty, the spatial pattern is composed of three layers of space, including front gateway, middle transitional space and back courtyard.

Production Technology: Metal roof panels used for the slightly curved roof, blue walls, dark grey tiles, and bronze-colored metal grilles as well as door and window frames are a modern interpretation of traditional architecture.
Design Challenge: Most modern urbanites long for a livable, enjoyable and tranquil living environment. In view of this, One Villa redefines modern lifestyle by offering ideal secluded living spaces, making residences as ideal as the "Peach Blossom Shangri-la" depicted by Tao Yuanming, a renowned ancient Chinese poet, and as the "Utopia" by Plato.
Research: As a place for Confucianism education, academy is a Chinese cultural gem, as it plays an important role in Chinese traditional culture and educational history. The project draws on the spatial order of Bailudong Academy in Lushan, and reinterprets it in a contemporary context. The design creates a picturesque space that combines both ancient and modern charm, and presents a natural, elegant lifestyle.
Inspiration: The project faces a river and nestles against a mountain, enjoying beautiful natural landscapes. One Villa inherits the natural outlook, cultural outlook and the outlook of the times featured by Sunac's Chinese-style residential developments, and meanwhile draws inspiration from traditional Chinese philosophy that advocates the integration of nature and human to conceive buildings and landscapes, so as to create novel scenes in a contemporary context.
