SUNAN, nestled in an ancient mountainous town in the south of China, offers a resort experience that seamlessly integrates natural hot springs, local culture, and Chinese design aesthetics. This project transforms a standalone villa occupying an area of 1,000?.
The overall spatial arrangement is primarily guided by a blend of natural and cultural Chinese design aesthetics, embodying both serenity and modern elegance. Through the preservation and rejuvenation of the original structure, the use of locally sourced materials, and the creation of an atmospheric play of light and shadow, the design evokes a sense of simplicity and Zen tranquility. This ensures that every visitor experiences a sense of retreat into the mountains, finding moments of peace and tranquility in the embrace of nature.
HAOFANG Design, approached it with a deep respect for the original site, aiming to preserve the spatial memories of the centuries-old interaction between humans and nature. With minimal design interventions and the use of materials that allow the inherent character of the site to shine through, the designers created a rustic and comfortable sanctuary for those seeking an escape from city.
