The Design

About Dowell DoThink Primary Function: Residential Complex

Ang Dowell DoThink ay isang residential complex sa Hangzhou, China, na sumasaklaw sa 103566 metro kwadrado. Pinagsasama ng disenyo ang kontemporaryong mga tirahang urban na may patio at matataas na tirahang nakapaloob sa mga hardin. Ang bawat pamilya ay may kanya-kanyang pribadong patio, na hinango sa tradisyunal na patio ng Jiangnan, kung saan ang isang bahay ay pinagsisilbihan ng anim na patio. Ang bato, natural na patong ng bato at mataas na kalidad na pintura ay lumilikha ng magkakaisa at simpleng facade, habang ang mga nakainlay na linyang metal ay nagdaragdag ng ritmo sa minimalistang tono. Ang tanawin sa pasukan, gitnang hardin at cluster garden ay nagdaragdag ng mga ibinabahaging bukas na espasyo.

Unique Properties: It adopts a homecoming system of 5 level ceremonies. The entrance & exit of the independent community follows the entry ritual system used in a wealthy and influential family in ancient times. It features a form of a backward carriage yard. The private courtyard of each residence acquires the essence of Jiangnan courtyard that one house is equipped with 6 courtyards, which form a distinctive space that courtyards are built both from inside and outside of the site, as well as the surroundings.
Dimensions & Packaging: Type: Mansion
Area: 103566 sqm

Production Technology: To ensure an overall unified facade effect, materials like stone, natural stone coating, high-grade paint are selected for the high-rise residential buildings to decorate their simplistic and modest facade. The simpleness revealed by the stone materials and the partially inlaid metal lines play a dynamic rhythm in the minimalist tone.
Design Challenge: The biggest challenge lies in innovation. It is not easy for a real estate development project, because there are many difficult and unexpected problems like budget control, schedule of relevant procedures and others during the construction. From the design to construction, all parties have made great efforts.
Research: The plot where Chinoiserie Mansion locates is also called the "West Creek of Xiaoshan District". Along the riverbank that stretches over 1000 meters, the project boasts two major product types: "contemporary urban residence with courtyards"and "high-rise residence in the courtyard". The ingenious design fosters such a terrific integration of prosperity and landscape.
Inspiration: The city is upgrading, so does its people's pursuit of dwelling quality. Therefore, we needed a project to demonstrate confidence backed by our culture, and the inherent preference for the courtyard. Chinoiserie Mansion makes its debut under such momentum, serving as a return to tradition, as well as an innovation.
Project Duration: October 2018-December 2021
Hangzhou City, China
Operation Flow: The designers considered not only the facade and house type, but also the spatial layout and living atmosphere. All details show a pleasant scale, from the entrance landscape to central garden and cluster garden, creating comfortable spatial experiences. The courtyard stresses privacy that each household has an independent courtyard. Different from the Chinese-style solemn and tediousness, the design injects more vitality into the space to interpret a positive living attitude.
