About Blue Bay Residential Umutungo w'Amazu yo Gutuwamo

Blue Bay Residential ni ikigo cy'amazu giherereye i Lingshui, muri Hainan. Uyu mushinga ufite ubuso bw'ubutaka bwa metero kare 52,000, ufite ubuso bwubatswemo bwa metero kare 25,000 n'imiryango 122. Igishushanyo cyubahirije umuco kaharanga w'iby'aho w'amazu yatataniye kandi afunguye, ateganyijwe hakikije imbuga zo hagati. Uruzitiro rw'imyanya rukubiyemo aho kwakirira abashyitsi, umubuga wo hagati, urukiko n'inzira rugira umuyoboro w'umwuka uhereye mu majyaruguru ugana mu majyepfo, ufasha mu kuzunguza umwuka nkuko byakagombye. Insano zubatswe hakoreshejwe uburyo bwabanjirijwe kandi bugoramye zifite imisego y'ibiganza bingana na milimetero 600 na 1800, zitanga igicucu n'ubwigenge. Imirongo itambitse ihuza inyubako n'ibidukikije bizengurutse aho hantu.

Behind the Design

Unique Properties: The local hot and rainy climate has formed conventional architectural methods like courtyard, cold alley and deep eave, which inspire the design to break through the blocking up of traditional architectures and to integrate architecture with nature. The overall composition of the building dominated by horizontal lines and strips, is stretchy and stable, forming a romantic rural style, an environmental coincidence and a metaphor with the spacious golf course and the unfolded South China Sea.
Dimensions & Packaging: The project covers a total land area of 52,000 sqm and a total construction area of 25,000 sqm, with 122 designed households. By the combination strategy of horizontal growth and mutual overlap has cleverly solved the two problems of land capacity and the interface between architecture and nature.

Production Technology: The tropical monsoon climate and long sunshine duration require better shading and ventilation conditions. In the project, the eaves of the same house are 600mm and the different houses are 1800mm, the prefabricated slope roof system is thus formed not only ensures the shading needs but also the privacy needs between the upper and lower units. A space sequence composed of lobby-courtyard-hall-corridor creates a complete north-south air passage to adjust the overall wind environment.
Design Challenge: Against the regular residential determinant texture and homogenized architectural style promoted by urbanization development, this project responds to nature in a form of continuous and porous space and stretchy and futuristic formal language, so as to create a new living experience that responds to the local climate and traditional living habits, strives to explore a new architectural model at the junction of city and nature, and seeks the possibility of life different from urban experience.
Research: The conceptual origin and the underlying design logic is drawn from the investigation and study of the local traditional residences: in the macroscopic layout of villages, there are often large-scale squares; in the mesoscopic organization of groups, they are often staggered with each other, leaving out the front and back field space and air channels; in the microscopic architectural distribution, functional blocks are scattered and connected through the corridors.
Inspiration: Derived from blurred boundaries in traditional Hainan residential pattern known as living scattered and porous and adjacent to the yard, the plane organization is combined in the shape of Hui (a Chinese character with an enclosing shape), the living rooms are arranged around the courtyard, and the scattered porous layout is in line with the hot and windy climate. Meanwhile the double first floor concept breaks the spatial certainty between the inside and the outside at different elevations.
Project Duration: The design of the project began in September 2020, the construction began in June 2021 in Lingshui, Hainan and is expected to be completed in December 2023.
Operation Flow: This case tries to combine the living pattern in the traditional folk houses with the modern green architecture design methods, and finally to explore a new dialogue between the city and the countryside in the regional and contemporary context.
