The Good Old Days and Pollinators Garden Showcase reflect the social transformation in China from rural living to urban community life. Inspired by the coexistence of aging residential buildings and nature, the design recreates a pocket garden that simulates an ecological restoration site amid remaining structures after relocation. Through natural planting that attracts pollinators and a multi-sensory, interactive layout, the garden becomes a street-corner retreat, blending ecological value with cultural memory and immersive experience.
