About Wyndham Dongrong Resort

Wyndham Dongrong is a resort located in the south of Yixian County, Anhui, China. The resort covers 67118 square meters and unites architecture, landscape and interior design in one solution. The layout draws on traditional Hui-style villages, using enclosed courtyards, small water systems and winding corridors. Yixian Green marble, a local stone, clads the walls below the third floor, so the building appears to sink into the natural setting. Horse head wall forms are repeated as an array and simplified into art installations along the street.

Design Details

Unique Properties
Wyndham Dongrong Resort is located in the south of Yixian County. It is connected to the Hongcun Tourist Attraction in the east and Xidi Tourist Attraction in the south. There is no doubt that the location of the hotel has laid the cornerstone for subsequent operations. After in-depth analysis of the location and regional culture of the hotel, the designers put forward an integrated architectural, landscape and interior design solution that integrates localization and experience.
Inspiration
The architectural planning of the project draws on the design processing techniques of the spatial mechanism in the layout of traditional Hui-style villages. That is, through the creation of a series of enclosed courtyards, small water systems and tortuous corridors, an exclusive spatial mechanism is formed in accordance with local conditions, and the planning idea of natural growth and harmony between man and nature is formed.
Research
The lifestyle that young people yearn for may be hidden in the close relationship between man and nature. The resort hotel provides an opportunity for contemporary people to go back to nature and inside. Designers who are constantly exploring the lifestyle of the future have found the best fit of inspiration between contemporary and traditional with a hotel in a small Huizhou city like a Chinese painting. It adds a best destination for travelers who yearn for natural mountain dwellings.
Challenge
The new and the old, the present and the history, should blend more naturally instead of copying the tradition. Therefore, the exterior wall of the building did not directly adopt a large-area white wall. The design team used bamboo to mold and proof, and then prefabricated a bamboo joint board with cement fiber and reinforced concrete. The sense of hierarchy is interesting, and it also has a thermal insulation effect on the building.
Realization and Technology
"Yixian Green" is a kind of marble unique to Yixian, with solid and fine stone quality. The designer used this unique material on the outer wall of the hotel building below three floors, so that the building forms a visual sinking treatment, and it fits the surrounding natural environment more closely. The horse head walls are layered on top of each other to form an array, reproducing the keynote of the micro-style with modern techniques.
Operation and Interaction
While creating the "Huang Hui Pavilion" on the river side of the hotel, the designer also extracted the "horse head wall" elements from the language of Hui architecture along the street to make art installations. The lines are simplified to form an elegant and undulating building facade. People and vehicles can feel the texture changes like the roof of a village in the process of traveling.
