Unique Properties: The project drew on the fabrics and material language of the old city wall built in Ming Dynasty. It also made use of the elevation difference of the mountain landform to retain key vegetation within the site. Besides, the design introduced the waterscape of the lake on the west side, and connected functional spaces like the entrance, greeting area and experiential area in an organic manner. Moreover, platforms were designed to extend interior spaces outwards and provide socializing functions.
Dimensions & Packaging: The project retains the existing trees and shrubs in the site, and meanwhile adds 74 kinds of ground cover and aquatic plants to enhance diversity.
Tags: Hotel, Luxury resort, Diversified cultural experiences, Semi-open, Socializing
Production Technology: With consideration into the hotel's operation and management, the design minimizes the coverage of the hard pavement and adopts permeable materials for hard pavement.
The infinite swimming pool is equipped with a misting system, which not only supports summer outdoor activities at the pool but also helps increase humidity around plants to create a better natural habitat. In addition, the infinite swimming pool blends with the lake view, generating a sense of extension.
Design Challenge: Plants were grew in hot summer, so measures like sun shading and nutrition dripping were taken to guarantee their survival.
Research: The project team conducted rounds of on-site surveys and investigations to collect data like the size and vertical elevation of the site and to determine the primary plants' positions. During the design phase, the landscape design team exchanged ideas frequently with o parties working on architecture, interior and MEP to guarantee coordination between landscape and the overall hotel design. Material samples and construction technology standards were confirmed at construction drawing stage.
Inspiration: The project is the landscape redesign and improvement for a resort hotel nestled in Zhongshan Mountain National Park. The shanty town near Pipa Lake has been demolished and transformed for many times. The architectural facades, interiors and landscape of the resort hotel were redesigned and improved to cater to the operational demands of a high-end resort hotel, and to upgrade it from the single function of accommodation to a destination with diversified spiritual and cultural experiences.
Project Duration: Design Period: July 2019-December 2019
Construction Period: January 2020-September 2020
Location:Nanjing, Jiangsu Province
Operation Flow: The project team performed rounds of on-site surveys and investigations during the early design phase, including 1 month of early investigation, 3 months of schematic design, 2 months of design development and construction drawing design. It took half a year for the design, 8 months for construction, and 2 years for construction maintenance and management. Through precise design control and several rounds of reviews by multiple parties, the design scheme was perfectly executed.
