Design Details
- Unique Properties
- The design adheres to the original intention of interpreting nature and it integrates the understanding of nature and respect for the city into the construction. Featured blue seascape, the landscape allows busy urbanite to drift away from the busy city.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by the sea, the landscape design shows the static broad and dynamic waves of the sea. The jumping whale sculpture highlights the design theme. The landscape streamline of the demonstration area is divided into different visiting themes, which are encountering the sea, watching fish, seeing island, shoal and watching drama, allowing people to form different viewing experiences during the visiting process.
- Research
- The project aims to build a hidden coast landscape, which evokes people's yearning for a quiet coast and a comfortable life, and creates a pleasant experience of vacation. The client hopes to set off nature and architecture through artistic landscapes, creating a harmonious and comfortable space experience, so as to attract people, stimulate regional vitality and enhance the site value.
- Challenge
- The main challenge is how to best present the design idea under the limited budget. The designers need to balance the design sense and the realization possibility. Because of the modern style and the polyline form, it is more important to control the scale and modulus of materials. The multiple cutting of the material reduced waste and the imitation stone tiles formed a blue and white light color palette in harmony with the project theme.
- Realization and Technology
- The main materials include jazz-like white tiles, white wood-grain tiles, sesame gray granite, blue mosaic, white painted aluminum, gravel, etc. The light blue and off-white palette sets off the light blue waterscape, creating a clean and refreshing landscape scene. The wall facade is made of imitation stone tiles, which has a fresh texture. The gallery frame and porch are made of aluminum plate with white paint. The overall white background highlights the green plants, integrating the landscape into nature.
- Operation and Interaction
- In order to convey the vision of the demonstration area, the sales center is set as the link point in the planning stage. In the front area, the waterscape and the polygonal coast form the main texture where green islands and paths float on the water surface; while there are open forest and grassland in the back area where the art gallery is the main body, creating a relaxing and pleasant landscape experience.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project was designed in September 2019 and finished in January 2020 in Zhejiang, China.
- Specifications
- The landscape area covers 7984 square meters. It is located in Ninghai County, Zhejiang Province, between the Tiantai Mountains and Siming Mountains, which is high in the west and low in the east.
