Research

The research phase is formed around a reading of the traditional Chinese garden. With a concentration on the relationship between architecture and nature. To use the idea of multidimensionality in modern design language but preserving the main spatial characteristics of a Chinese garden.

Inspiration

The design area is the edge of a residential block and includes residential apartments and a selling center, which will be re-used into a community center after selling of the apartments. The site is surrounded by different natural features including river and park. Moreover, Landscape is designed a way to connect the block to the main road passing alongside it. Considering the site’s natural characteristics, design language is based on organic behavior in response to its neighboring park and the river. It integrates the architecture of the block with its natural context and ties the residential site to the city in a different way by blending it with nature. The design is inspired by the relationship between figure and garden in a traditional Chinese garden but using design techniques to re-interpret it into more contemporary design language.
