Project
Introduction

Project Location
Located in Yichang City, Hubei Province, the project is the reconstruction and upgrading project of Yichang Riverside Park, which is a very important urban public leisure space for Yichang citizens, and it’s urgent to improve the functional facilities and implant new business formats.
Original landscape
Due to the construction period of more than 40 years, Yichang Riverside Park has gradually exposed various problems: the construction style is inconsistent and fragmented, a number of industrial relics have destroyed the continuity of the green corridor along the river, and the overgrown vegetation has obstructed the sight field between the city and the river view, rendering the river, mountain, and scenery obscured from the city, and failing to utilize the advantages of Yichang landscape.
Design Strategies
While practicing the concept of park city, the design team always thought about how to restore the Yangtze River ecology. With "hyperlink" as the design concept, it focused on opening the whole riverside, connecting the internal and external traffic of the area with greenways, commuter roads and river-watching trails, adding rest areas and river-viewing seats along the river to create a friendly and comfortable riverside space. It also removed the middle layer arbors that do not grow well to open the sight field and show the public the most beautiful river view.
To fully activate site functions, the design team used the method of scene construction to create diversified formats from the perspective of operation, including the types of waterfront service spaces such as cultural venues, children area, independent buildings and street sports facilities. At the same time, the design team integrated the gantry crane with the memory of the site and the old warehouse into the landscape design, which revitalizes the park with the trendy industrial style and retains the memory of the city.
After this transformation, Yichang Riverside Park has become a distinctive landscape space that harmoniously blends with nature while exuding vitality, interactivity, and amusement, providing the citizens with an enhanced experience.

Introduction

The city is too noisy. There is a huge crowd of people and a roaring noise of machines. There is hardly a quiet place where you can stay quietly for a while. The sounds that haunt your ears always make you feel restless and your mind is always confused. Therefore, we have recreated the classic, the Four Seasons Hotel on the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok, and created an extremely quiet and elegant space experience in the bustling downtown, Let people enjoy the oasis in this city. The sunlight penetrates the chlorophyll and the earth to blend into the rich and deep "dark part". The biological reproduction is the "bottom color" of the forest, and it is also the basis for the green color of the grandmother of Bulgari Jewelry, which extracts Bulgari's outstanding spirit and pursues absolute high quality with exquisite excellence; The hand forged original brass minerals induce a warm and bright golden light. The tawny acrylic, the ultimate emerald, the delicate plant collocation and the unique geometric layout of the footpath connect the surrounding areas. High luxury colors such as black, gold and green are used to demonstrate the quality of luxury hotel style space by matching with quality soft clothing.
The inside of the book bar is in close contact with the mirror water feature. The outside is in harmony with the natural grass and flowers. The natural leisure and exquisite decoration collide with a unique space feeling. The duplex space provides more possibilities for the owners.
The wind gently touches the water surface, arousing layers of ripples and reflection in the flower forest on the water surface, and jointly carving a beautiful picture of the forest stream. In the corner of the book bar, the divine deer sculpture with its head bent down to drink water and the green outside the window complement each other, giving people an illusion of being in the deep forest at this moment.
The inspiration of the design of the model institute comes from the classic aesthetics of Baogeli that matches the tone of the project. It creates a private villa with a Lingshi garden. What you see is what you get is a luxurious quality tone. The unique pneumatic device, accompanied by one side of the road, floats on the water and shuttles through it, making it quiet and comfortable.
The revolving staircase descends down the stairs with a sense of ritual. The half wrapped card seat and the naturally scattered flower border contrast to each other. The sun shines on the leisurely card seat through the treetops. Get together with three or two friends and imagine the infinite possibilities of life.
LONGFOR ORIGIN It brings not only the copy of a simple visual image, but also the wonderful scenes of a better life. The most luxurious experience is the sublimation of daily life experience. We hope to dedicate the beauty of the world to Shenyang.

Projet
Introduction

. The city where Big Fish Pond Park is located will become a forest city in the future. Nearby is the World Natural Heritage Park of Danxia Peak Forest Landform with beautiful water, mountains and caves, and the natural ecological environment is very well protected.
The total area of the park is 18.57 hectares, of which 9.2 hectares is the top view projection of the mountain, 5.8 hectares is the water body, and 3.5 hectares is the flat land, the flat land, the mountain, and the water body surround each other, and the terrain is northeast and southwest. The water source is of good quality, and the largest water body has a large number of precious and beautiful deciduous fir, but the water bodies are not connected to each other; about 60% of the mountain is well covered with vegetation, 40% is excavated without planning, and the vegetation is completely damaged; around the site are distributed residential communities, schools, hotels, business offices, urban public buildings, and new urban areas that will be planned for development in the future.
During the site survey of this project, I was thinking about these questions and looking for solutions to these problems.
"How do we care for the mountains and lakes that are supposed to be so beautiful?" Beautiful survival, natural preservation, ecological restoration.
"What do we want her to bring to the city?" Function, life, culture, spirit, image, economy, education.
"How to structure the green system?" Following the trend, ecological restoration and combing, preservation of deciduous fir and good vegetation of the mountain.
"What kind of park to make?" A park that makes people happy, a park that makes people want to write and recite poems.
In the design, we focus on the factors of "region, site, spatial expression, sustainability, foresight, and inclusiveness"; we pay attention to the relevance of the site, the flexibility of the spatial function, and the composite nature; we express the visual art and spatial atmosphere of the project in a concise way. While taking into account the familiar functional requirements of the local people, the project will also provide new and interesting lifestyles for the users through new creation.
Ultimately, the design process follows the above issues and desires to present the current design results.
