LAYOUT
MaiWei Landscape Architecture Studio: The South Golden Bay project is located in the core lake area in the middle of the Luxelakes District. The land is composed of several peninsulas. The super-high-rise product building has the largest view of the lake area, making use of the unique advantages of the site, allowing the building to fully integrate into the nature and the lake, but at the same time ensuring that the privacy of the occupants is not disturbed.
SOLUTION THINKING
The shoreline of the lake is winding and winding, and there are many islands distributed, forming a pattern of alternating lakes and islands with rich layers. We respect the terrain and retain the original natural attributes of the site. After the first building is dropped at a 10-degree parallel offset from the boundary, the follow-up buildings are placed at an angle of 30 degrees to ensure the distance between buildings and the view of the lake. After the building is settled, due to the slope of the boundary and the receding distance from the waterfront revetment, there is not much design space left for us. In order not to make the space appear cramped and dark, we designed it with light landscape intervention, leaving more space for nature to play. Plants grow from the ground and fall into the landscape. The whole site seems to break out of the wilderness, running through a natural growth state, forming a pattern of mutual penetration with nature.
DESIGN THEME：OVER THE WILDERNESS
We intervene with low intervention, pay attention to the exploration of the spirit of the place and the preservation of the local ecology, and use restraint design techniques to retain the most vivid memory of the site, abandon redundant functional forms, and even abandon words. Only clean silence and Existence, returning to the natural and authentic space philosophy; beside the Luhu Lake, this natural sense of shelter gives people comfort, tolerance and warmth. Ecological art environment.
CLONCLUSION
The development of the South Golden Bay successfully achieves a harmonious coexistence between architecture, daily life, people, and water. It offers valuable insights into urban ecological restoration. In addition to serving as a demonstration of ecological, cultural, and residential ideals, the site is envisioned as an important window for showcasing a new way of life. It is designed to accommodate non-standardized commercial models in the future, encompassing lifestyle retail, hospitality, dining, art, culture, and nature-driven social spaces. This will help attract visitors, foster community cohesion, and promote economic and cultural growth.
