About Sanjiao Eco Island 度假区总体规划

三角生态岛是位于中国南方一座无人岛的度假区总体规划方案。规划用地面积90公顷,总建筑面积10万平方米。八大主题片区环岛布局,各片区依托现状地形塑造,并以共同的生态主题相互串联。规划设施包括水上乐园、帆船学校、自然保护区及多家酒店。设计以石材与绿植为主要材料,呼应场地原有采石场的历史记忆。岛内仅允许绿色环保交通工具通行,开发建设按分期推进。

Unique Properties
As China's first uninhabited island to be developed into an integrated tourism destination, Sanjiao aims to set innovative and pioneering standards for the sustainable development of maritime tourism resources.
The island's untamed natural resources offer a unique opportunity to position it as an ultimate marine educament venue; the entertainment and leisure elements (four seasons water park, sailing school, nature preserve, etc.) will turn the island into an all-year round tourism destination.

Production Technology
The 90 ha site will be developed over a period of five to ten years - a judiciously phased development that will see the completion of a well-balanced mix of accommodation, retail and public service facilities.
Relying on 8 themed areas, NDA has planned a variety of activities and sports that add up to a 3km stretch of uninterrupted immersive experience around the island. This, together with only permitting green vehicles, will allow visitors to leave their daily lives behind and explore the island and the surrounding ocean in a peaceful environment.
Design Challenge
In order to create a stimulating journey for the visitors, the master plan creates 8 distinct zones with their own separate character, activities, and experiences. Derived from the unique features of the existing terrain, they act like distinct “realms” brought together by a strong underlining ecological theme: Hanging Gardens, Shining Bay, Floating Town, Moon Lake, Tropical Utopia, Eden Cove, etc.
Once these eight zones have been established, the challenge of the design team was how to define an architecture able to provide a strong identity for the island while also highlighting the ecological theme. How to integrate 100,000sqm of built area within the island’s pristine environment?
Various sustainable architectural strategies are deployed in this project to create a panoply of compelling designs that all revolve around a strong ecological theme – allowing guests to embark on a journey of immersive exploration and active educament. A strong focus is placed on creating unique accommodation experiences meant to increase the average stay period, as well as the customer return rate: a museum hotel hidden in the tropical hillside, a lagoon hotel with its own dive-in pool, a flight themed-resort perched on top of the least accessible part of the island.
Trying to preserve and expose the island’s history as a stone quarry, the choice of materials give precedence to stone and greenery in order to integrate the buildings more organically into the island’s unique environment.

Project Duration
From 2014 until now, NDA has led the whole island strategic planning, conceptual planning and regulatory detailed planning - including the concept design of all the buildings on the island. The location is in the middle of Greater Bay Area, under the jurisdiction of Zhuhai's municipality.
