Drops Chamber, Wenzhou

The project is located in Luchen district, Wenzhou city which is a garden design for Lvcheng residential demonstration area. 

The core area of the garden is located in the east of the main building, next to the east parking area. A long lounge run through the site that divided the space  visually but also connected two different parts in spatial distribution. 

Garden design is the plastic arts with rich vitality. The first sight of each garden would be impressed by its expression and atmosphere instead of its function distribution. The core area of this project includes two-part: “the shadow of drizzle ” and “ the sound of the hale water ”. Following the preset space atmosphere, different stone materials processed by various craft techniques used here to transform the expression of rain – which is the main design theme in this project.

Guests will be touched when entering the first space of the corridor. The road gradually increases and the width of the road becomes narrow. A one-way grid blocks the view of the entrance that makes the garden shown indistinctly behind,which provide an mysterious warm-up for visitors to experiences the follow-up space.

The sound of the hale water

The atmosphere becomes bright when people turn around and enter the core water area through the long corridor. Reveal the majesty of the landscape by comparing the stone column to heavy rainfalls. The sound of water drops from the corridor into the pool is just like a beautiful variation.

The shadow of drizzle(Lingering)

The one-way grids no longer block the view when guests walkout from the sales area. The exposed scenery provided a profound impression at the end of the journey.
