Architecture is the learned game correct and magnificent of forms assembled in the light. – Le Corbusier
YUE SHENG TING SPA
The project is located in Haidian Island, where the wind is light and the clouds are clear, and the coconut palms are verdant. Considering the unique light advantage of the sea city, the row upon row of arched gates are set with strict structure, dense and orderly lines. The setting sun melts gold, and the twilight, together with the tree shadows, is projected on the doorpost carvings. The infinitely repeated straightness divides the setting sun into a dynamic and changeable landscape.
On top of the new building, the original architectural features of the island are also preserved. Under the balance between the new and the old, the local humanistic style is properly displayed.The exterior parking lot blurs the boundaries between natural and built spaces. This perception is further enhanced by the abundant presence of palm trees, shrubs and other undergrowth, creating visual continuity with the surrounding lush vegetation.
The design of the facade of the building adopts the arch structure. The designer added a linear arrangement to the original shape. The external lines of the arches are sparse and orderly, progressive inwards layer by layer; while the corresponding inner wall arch lines trend outwards. This setting of internal and external echoes makes the original single architectural structure full of rhythm.
The main creative team of FAN JIN adheres to the concept of "proposing for the ultimate artistic aesthetics", and endows Yuexiang. Yueshengting Spa with a new soul. In the choice of materials, we use the micro-cement of the same color to blend with the light, creating a sense of harmony between the sea and the sky.
Afterglow
With "sunset afterglow" as the core of inspiration, preserving the color of light has become an indispensable part. When the setting sun obliquely shines on the beach surface through the palm leaves, a layer of sandy brown floats, becoming the skin color of the interior and exterior spaces of the building.
When the sun moves around the track of the dome, the large light and shadow printed on the building body and space switch angles accordingly, redistributing the spatial structure.
It is as simple as a sand palm, full of imprints of order from nature: flat land, symmetrical fallen leaves, side-by-side tree trunks, or overlapping mountain rocks... They were born in ancient times, born and died at their own metabolic speed, Reshape and evolve, until today, and then continue to the future time and space.
Hidden under the smooth and smooth manuscript, the initial space skeleton has been formed. It starts with the quick capture of momentary thoughts, and continues to grasp ideas based on repeated deliberations on structural relationships and details.
Mood
From the designer's point of view, the architectural space should be integrated. Appropriately breaking the "wall" between the two, digging out multiple ingenious passages, a wall hole, a window hole, or a door, can make a limited site, while having a relatively independent area, the extension performance of the field of vision reaches optimal.
The addition of natural light sources strengthens the boundary between light and shade in the space and shapes the volume of the still life. Under the interaction of the micro-cement cave texture and light, it produces a gradual and dynamic beauty.
When we hand over the entire space to others, we expect certain emotional responses: from sunrise to sunset during the day, we can see different changes in the same scene. Or look at the interaction between contemporary people, architecture and nature through a window of the "Star Bridge Space Station" in the future world, creating a wonderful experience of interlacing time and space... These reactions occur when others interact with space , in the round-trip process in different channels.
Meta
The meta produces all things, and all things return to it after annihilation.——Ἀναξίμανδρος
Meta, this word root is no stranger to you and me today. Born in the primordial matter of chaos, the metaverse leading to the future is the product of human spiritual consciousness breaking away from the material world.
Water, light, and even plants and wind, when these elements are abstracted from the original nature according to human ideas, they tend to be divine.
There is only one entity that constitutes the existence and unity of all things, which is the natural world, and "God is nature". The Buddha beads are used as the medium to connect the sky and the earth. When people keep staring at this string of Buddha beads, slowly, after their consciousness touches the "primary quality", they will enter a kind of tranquility similar to meditation.
“You standing on the bridge are gazing at the scenery;someone watching the landscape aloft from the balcony is gazing at you.”—— Zhilin Bian
Stone, as the representative of the earth element, is the constancy of "settlement". Physically, it is called "vessel". Mountains and rocks are the original large containers between heaven and earth, which play the role of sheltering from wind and rain and resisting external damage. Raising our hands to touch the casual and dense texture of the travertine polished by the years, our consciousness goes back thousands of years ago, the original connotation at the beginning of the birth of human beings.
Human beings living in a highly industrialized urban society have long since lost a healthy, natural way of life and eventually lost extensive contact with bodily senses. As a result, the body, mind and soul culture represented by "Zen Tea", "Meditation" and "Incense Taoism" emerged, and it became one of the few channels connecting human senses and the natural world.
Essence is a huge and invisible "power" in nature, which is promoted in the form of "Air". Fire is air that has been thinned out. Air can turn into water, and when solidified, it turns into earth and stone. All the processes of all life forms based on their own functions will eventually form a closed circle.
Stillness can produce wisdom, the more peaceful the heart is, the more conducive it is to observe the flow of consciousness. Give the body completely to the space, pick up the steps, take the starting point as the center, and when the circular trajectory is constantly circulating, the moving line of the person forms a wind eye.
Resonance
Ending the exploration of the "openness" of the external space field, we began to ponder the closed space with privacy. The smooth, light and elegant curved surface expands to the outer wall layer by layer, just like the ripples on the water surface under the breeze, conveying a flexible visual language, which helps people gradually open up their bodies and minds with the rhythm of the water.
Pure white cotton and linen, bamboo strips and yellow bamboo, solid wood tables and chairs, those imprints full of primitive natural life can make people forget the dust, empty their minds, and find this extraordinary land of immortals.
The beam structure is interlaced in the way of internal architecture to form well-proportioned vault units. Every detail, every corner, within sight constitutes a subtle and quiet beauty.
When we trace the coastline through the mirrored greenery, and feel the sun setting, the temperature of the space, and the different auditory feelings brought by the waves, we can produce different levels of meditation. Like flowing water coming and going, like clouds curling and relaxing. Go to a sunset date.
