RESEARCH ABSTRACT: The project is located in Moganshan Scenic Area, one of the top four summer resorts in China. It is a paradise located in the Yangtze River Delta. The reception center is located at the foot of the mountain and surrounded by mountains. We did not want to damage the natural environment so we tried to create a connection between interior and exterior environment by using a lot of local elements such as water, cloud, bamboo, and mountain.
CHALLENGE: Taking life and vacation as the base point, the space is designed to create a vacationing atmosphere. With the change of the height and width of the terrain, designers try to take the space as a frame and take the natural environment as the scene to form a harmonious symbiosis with nature. When visitors come, whether they walk along the bar or sit in the relax area, they can always look far away or take a glance and see different scenery.
