Design Challenge

This project, as a residential development, mainly consists of traditional Chinese courtyard dwellings and modern multi-level buildings. The biggest challenge lay in spatial organization and facade design. We tried to adopt both modern and traditional Chinese-style facade languages to interpret Oriental elegance. Although the facades of the two types of dwellings are contrasting, we worked to realize unity in terms of spatial patterns and spirit.

Project Duration

The project started in January 2018 and finished in December 2020 in Chengdu, China.

Operation Flow

Courtyard is the center of daily life so that the plane design of the project unfolds around it. The courtyard is enclosed with buildings, walls, corridors, and pavilions, creating a tranquil, safe, and clean inner space for the occupants. Living spaces are surrounded by specific functional divisions including an entry courtyard, a main courtyard, a small landscaped yard, a vegetable garden, etc, making sure that occupants can enjoy scenery when windows are opened.

Research

Located in Qingyang District, the project covers a land area of 43,000 square meter with a floor area ratio of 2.0. In the scheme, six modern high-rise residential buildings are designed in the northwest side of the plot while ten high quality ones are built in the south side. What features the project most is the three classic Chinese-style architectures built in the southeast corner, constituting the distinctive urban houses with courtyards unique to Chengdu.

Inspiration

The designers seek to make the spatial form of the architecture complex conform to the traditional living pattern by designing different courtyards that scatter in the project. Therefore, the overall space in the master plan is well-arranged. The courtyard that leads to household serves as the public space for communication. When going home, the occupants pass here first and then stroll on the circuitous and quiet route and finally walk toward the private courtyard.
