Unique Properties
As a driving force for a green ecosystem and artistic human living environment, the designer permeates forest into life, creating an urban park scenario where art and nature coexist. To meet the diverse needs of urbanization, the designer not only creates a natural landscape in harmony with urban life, but also a vibrant public activity gathering place, which organically links the interaction between the city, community and people, and activates more possibilities for new lifestyles.

Production Technology
Vegetation, light and shadow, deer and winding paths are interwoven into a vivid painting. In the integrated layout of the garden and street, the designer simulates the natural form of the wetland ecology and outlines the vitality of all things. The deer sculpture is a source of vigor and fun. Besides, the lively circular landscape installation contrasts strongly with the surrounding scenes. Walking to the garden, the steel cutting installation conveys contemporary art sense accompanied by the water.
Design Challenge
Walking through the forest, the tranquility of the grass, babbling streams and gushing waterfalls and springs give people a rich sensory enjoyment. Here, the deer bending over the rocks echoes the scenery with a charming artistic expression. The leisure space on one side, where you can listen to the sound of flowing water near and look at the green forest far away, not only responds to the urban people's inner thirst for nature, but also strengthens the activity experience of the community park.
Project Duration
The project is located in Changsha, China and completed in January 2021.
Operation Flow
The planning of children's activity field is closely related to natural ecology, urban civilization, and children's behavior patterns. Parent-child interaction, fun play and daily social scenes are integrated, and facilities such as the deer house slide, colorful runway, seesaw and fitness equipment all become artistic media linking nature, the community and the outside. Thus, the casual game scene is integrated into every daily life, accompanying children's healthy growth.
Research
As the first high-end masterpiece of Poly's City Series in Changsha, City Gather is located in the Xiangjiang New District, a strategic planning area along the Belt and Road. Anchored by the development prospect of the city's sub-center, the project is surrounded by high-quality supporting resources such as Tianxin District Commercial Center and Yuelu Cultural Center. It is adjacent to the 1,186 acre Yanghu National Wetland Park, creating a green, ecological and humanistic living area for human.
Inspiration
Focusing on the harmony of natural ecology and urban life, the designer takes urban forest as the theme when designing the landscaping and soft furnishings of this case. Drawing on the spiritual imagery of deer in the forest, modern art and landscape language echo each other to build a unique humanistic care. The superposition of park-like forest community and sports park makes the urban lifestyle burst out with beautiful experiences and poetic emotions when meeting with pure nature.
