Natural Aesthetics

"Every field of nature is wonderful beyond compare."

——Aristotle

Xiaolan Yuhua is located in the bustling area south of the Olympic Sports Center, surrounded by two rivers. It integrates with nature and recreates it, creating a forest living environment where one can live and play. The copper screen wall in the middle of the gate is specially customized by Zhu Bingren Copper Studio. Its inspiration comes from "Clouds Unfurling and Waves Rolling" in Ma Yuan's "Twelve Views of Water" of the Southern Song Dynasty. The lines carved on the stone walls on both sides are like leaping water waves, and the double - curved ceiling is like rippling ripples. From afar, one can seemingly feel the color of the rivers at dawn and the meaning of the golden waves like a tidal surge.

01 Lin'an Courtyard | Where Prestige Whispers in Harmony with Tranquility

At the entrance, the half - moon arc - shaped stone facade forms an interesting contrast with the serene water courtyard, just like a poetic portrayal of "holding the moon in the palm from the water". The logo is hidden in the curtain wall, and the brass logo on the ground corresponds to the intangible cultural heritage technique of copper carving from afar. The corridor connects a flowing ecological scroll. With water and stones interlaced and light and shadow blending, the space unfolds like rice paper, slowly spreading a tranquil and poetic atmosphere.

02 Yunshang Senyu | Building a Three - Dimensional Forest Realm for Living and Touring

Strolling in the water courtyard, the corridors and pavilions complement each other, outlining a landscape painting. The still water runs deep, the clouds and mist wind around the trees, and the forest breeze gently blows through. Xishan, Juyue, Liufang, and Xianzong - the four realms flow and change, and walking here is like wandering in a painting. The signboards continue the curves and arcs of the architecture, with the dynamic beauty of flowing clouds and running water, echoing the natural aesthetics of this place.

03 Tree-lined Main Venue | Life and nature coexist here

The rich plant community endows the venue with vibrant vitality. Each plant is like a whispering being, telling a unique story. The design of plant signs has become the highlight this time - we abandon the verbose written descriptions and instead depict their habits with a light and anthropomorphic touch. The hand-drawn "forest fairies" come to life, inviting people to step into their life narratives in a softer way.

04 Dajing Qixin | A Treasured Riverside Property in the City Center

The interior space continues and elevates the natural narrative of the architecture and landscape, shifting towards an elegant style with more humanistic warmth and luxurious texture. Guided by the concept of "hidden in the environment, prominent in the details", the design carefully considers the integration of materials, lighting, and copywriting in the construction of the signage system. The warmth of brass, the layering of light and shadow, and the poetic words all have a quiet dialogue with the interior interfaces, making the signage not only a guide but also a part of the spatial aesthetics.
