Key design considerations include: how to harmoniously integrate the building’s uniquely recreated rustic exterior within the scenic context with the entrance to the homestay; how to make the concrete structure with its lofty ceilings and sloping roof more suitable for guest accommodation and daily living; and how to maximize the number of rooms offering pleasant views of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. Each public space is imbued with its own unique natural design attributes, transforming the environment into a dynamic interplay of heights and depths, brightness and shadows, flowing lines and jagged edges, rugged or narrow valleys, streams, boulders, skylights, or dense mist. Through the use of internal structures and custom textures, the space is designed to evoke a sense of timelessness, liberating visitors from the fast-paced rhythm of urban life. It aims to lead the mind inward, allowing a brief escape from reality through these natural elements and fostering an experience of wandering through nature.
