Times Mansion

When the designers first arrived at the site, they were enchanted by the goldenrain tree and camphor preserved there.

Landscape Design for Shaoxing

Inspired by an ancient verse that portrays the picturesque scenery of Shaoxing, the project takes "green mountain and clear water" as design concept. Instead of simply combining or simulating traditional symbols in Shaoxing, it draws on traditional Chinese landscaping and literary techniques such as "borrowing", "metaphorizing" and "analogy", to respond to local historical context and environment through abstract expressions.
