The project is located in Wuxi, China, featuring the nationally recognized Changguangxi Wetland Park and the 3A-rated scenic area of Xuelang Mountain, which are the iconic landscapes of Wuxi. It creates a pleasant ecological environment. The designers respect and understand the local context and cultural heritage of Wuxi, establishing a dialogue between the city, nature, and the people. They embrace the concept of "cloud" to observe the heavens and earth, and the concept of "mountain" to appreciate the lake, creating a "HILLSIDE VILLA CLUB" that showcases the beauty of lakes, mountains, and peaks.
The community center, as an integral part of the "HILLSIDE VILLA CLUB", combines three elements: nature, ceremonial rituals, and craftsmanship, integrating them into the residential lifestyle. It provides a space for residents to slow down their pace, adjust their mindset, and experience the blend of traditional Song Dynasty aesthetics and the concept of understated luxury. The center offers a picturesque and ever-changing scenery, resembling a hidden retreat.
The architectural façade takes inspiration from the elegance and charm of the Song Dynasty, incorporating architectural techniques from the imperial palaces of that era. With a foundation in timber construction, it replicates the intricate roof design of the Song Dynasty, featuring the artistic aesthetics of the "Double Flying Eaves". The fusion of traditional mortise-and-tenon craftsmanship with modern glass curtain walls embodies the simplicity and elegance of Song Dynasty aesthetics.
The building functions include a luxurious reception area on the second floor, an art fitness center with a 270-degree panoramic view, exclusive private dining spaces, and office facilities, providing social, service, and recreational amenities for the community residents.
