Phoenix Tree Garden
Tea Space for Atelier ZZ
In this case, the shortcomings of the base are similar courtyard structures, the courtyards that are seen at a glance, and the current state of the house being demolished.

Unique Properties
Designers transform the language of traditional gardens here to get a new garden conception, by dealing with a series of relationship between elements, such as the relationship between canals and clouds, the relationship between pavilion and the canal, the relationship between rocks and waterfalls. The design makes this small yard have the appearance of today's architectural space, while also having the poetry of traditional gardens.

Production Technology
Designers use the red rock laminar stack, the light-transparent bridge of the steel grille, the gray and colored cobblestone paving, and the 10 cm small gray tile paving. These materials give the garden a simple and authentic atmosphere.
Design Challenge
The shortcomings of the base are similar courtyard structures, the courtyards that are seen at a glance, and the current state of the house being demolished. Designers used the folding wall and the moon door to change the internal space axis, and organized the new landscape order with small bridges, waterways and stacked mountains.
Project Duration
The project started in April 2018 in Beijing and finished in March 2019 in Beijing.
Operation Flow
Cloud wall is set at the entrance of the garden. The curved moon door twists the axis to separate the outside and inside of the garden.
Research
The owner rented a yard in the hutong, and asked Atelier ZZ to design a tea house garden. It is hoped that the garden will include the elements of traditional gardens, and have the true feeling of traditional gardens. It is not allowed to change the plane position of the original building and hope to have a phoenix tree. We designed and directed the stack of red rock mountain. Several tea rooms with different views and feelings were made in less than 200 square meters.
Inspiration
Some elements come from the reference to Suzhou classical gardens, such as the small arch bridge, borrowed from the static bridge in the net master garden, the stone paving on the ground borrowed from the linear stone paving of the bathing gull small garden. Designers designed and directed the stack of red rock mountain. Several tea rooms with different views and feelings were made in less than 200 square meters.
