DETAILS

LocationShaoxing, China
ClientShaoxing Ansheng Real Estates Co.
SERVICE:
Size32,800 m²

As a model home sales center, the first concern of this project is to guide visitors from the entrance to the exhibition center in an elegant and impressive way. Shaoxing is famous for its natural and cultural heritage, which inspired the design of several elements: a “blue galaxy” pool, southern concept frame wall, galaxy walk, inkwell pool, and flower garden, aiming to impart a cultural impression to visitors. The area in front of the model home also functions as an energetic open space, with a movable library, retail graphic wall, food truck, and movable furniture. This international and multi-functional open space can host different programs during the year based on the client’s needs.
