WORLD ARCHITECTURE 13 edited by JTAR PUBLISHING
We are glad to annouce that WUXI MASTER PLAN MIXED USE COMPLEX has been published on the second volume of WORLD ARCHITECTURE 13 book.
The Masterplan is based on two main keywords which are the base of all design choices and that can be defined as generator elements of all the project: Landscape and Waterscape.
In this way a perfect fusion between Earth, Water and Architecture is gained in complete harmony of the parts according to a design and attention to landscape approach typically Italian and Mediterranean and pursuing the goal of always researching as a reference the human scale. The result is a “Landscape Resort Community Park” in respect to the law of humanity and nature.
Landscape
The ground is not thought as a flat plate element on which the buildings are simply located, on the contrary it is used as if it would be a “3D solid material” and shaped both horizontally and vertically.
Waterscape
The intention is to emphasize to the maximum the presence of water making it become a diffuse system, introducing it inside the area and in every part of the project, and using it as if it was a “3D liquid material”.
Following as a model the idea of the city of Venice an estuary is created to the South with an artificial island for open air shows, a series of buildings which represent the Yacht Club thought as an archipelago, a small lake system, a timed waterfall (for example 10 minutes per hour, mainly in the evening and with scenographic artificial lighting) coming from the last floor of the Hotel.
