The project is located in Beijing, China, adjacent to a subway station, with a well-developed transportation network in the surrounding area, providing convenient access and highlighting the ecological environment.
The project focuses on creating a planned "Eastern Etiquette" concept, using the vertical axis of the buildings and the horizontal axis of the landscape design to cultivate a culture of "axis-ritual." The aim is to make returning home a ceremonial act, imbued with a sense of etiquette.
Drawing inspiration from the art of Eastern garden design, with its "artful arrangement and multiple courtyards," the buildings and courtyards are interwoven, enveloping the residential units with landscapes on all sides. This creates a "home within a courtyard" concept, maximizing the quality of the living space.
The planning emphasizes urban livability, allowing residents to enjoy the convenience of city life while incorporating a slower pace and green living. The community features convenient and independent open green spaces, an accessible pedestrian system, and meticulously crafted humanistic gardens. Residents can immerse themselves in these surroundings, enjoying familial bliss and a sense of community.
The architectural units are arranged in a staggered manner, avoiding a monotonous city skyline and providing visual richness to the community space.
The unit layouts follow a one-lift-two-unit design, ensuring excellent natural lighting and reasonable separation between active and quiet areas. South-facing units feature maximized bay windows, guaranteeing ample daylight and scenic views for each south-facing living space. The comfortable visual space of the lobby, measuring 2.45 by 2.51 meters per unit, allows for a pleasant waiting experience. The generous additional spaces, such as equipment platforms and large south-facing bay windows, provide excellent value for residents.
The facade design adopts a modern and elegant style, reinterpreting and representing classic aesthetics using contemporary construction techniques and language. The design showcases a sense of order, layered variations, and the architectural cultural style of modern fashion.
The overall design emphasizes the principles of balance, proportion, rhythm, and scale, reflecting the international perspective of modern urban culture and conveying the spirit of ecological and humanistic living.
