- Unique Properties
- This project attempts to construct a platform above the traditional transportation level, function as various garden landscapes.All community groups would be arranged in rhythmic orderings of low density,small block and abundant landscape to create a pleasant spatial scale.The architectural features have both the traditional and futuristic elements.Lixian community tries to dig out the street life to achieve a scenario of cosmopolitism where full of green, a land of idyllic beauty.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- Research area: about 100 hectares, Core area: about 28.8 hectares.
Core area GFA: 644416 square meters. - Tags
- Future community, Neighborhood center, TOD Complex, Prefabricated building module, Urban design, Building lifecycle management.
- Production Technology
- TOD mode is one of the essential highlights in the Lixian community, the local bus network would be connected to the bus terminal intergrating the neighborhood center, which would also organize the possible nurseries, rest home, entrepreneur hub or multifunctional space with specific cautious-planned civic infrastructures. Those elements together would create a complete TOD system that connects all the nodes and they are important parts to structure a whole Lixian community.
- Design Challenge
- The huge mass of the residential architecture could lack spatial scales of humanity, isolating us from nature, alienating interpersonal relationship. Our exploration mainly relies in what could be the future living way suited for China?
During the design process, the key is to achieve the “three aspects” (humanization, ecologicalization, digitization) that contain “nine future scenes”: neighborhood, education, health, business, architecture, transportation, low-carbon, service and governance. Another key to the success of this project is the collaboration between the urban design team and the architecture team. Urban designers and architects work together from the initial stage of this project, to make sure the nine scenes of future community can be fully complemented throughout the process of the design activity. - Research
- Quzhou is located in the southeast of the Zhejiang province where not only has abundant landscape resources but also a famous cultural city with a long history and a shrine of southern Confucianism. Lixian community is adjacent to the central old neighborhood of Quzhou, where habitat condition needs to be upgraded thus the local government as the leading force has been eager to renew or reform these areas to create a unique future community atmosphere , based on people’s love and yearning for a better life.
- Inspiration
- Profound and lasting Chinese culture can be traced to the same origin. Confucianism takes cosmopolitism as the ideal status of society development. In cosmopolitism society, kids or youth would be well cared and educated, adults would have corresponding labour income, patients or vulnerable group would be cured, elder could be looked after, everyone has got the right place and satisfaction. Lixian community takes cosmopolitism as the design theme to explore an ideal community.
- Project Duration
- The project started in July 2019. It is located in Quzhou, Zhejiang Province, China.
- Operation Flow
- Along the river there is a talent persons’ apartment, with a neighborhood center, bus terminals, or distinctive commercial programming in the lower floor. This project aims to strengthen the pride of servers by providing superior location, best landscape resources, better employment prospects and opportunities, as reward for their better service in future scenes. The development of Lixian culture will be made possible by improving and accentuating the importance of servers.
