The building is located besides a hilly road in a quiet countryside somewhere in the Huzhou city, Zhejiang province, where the mountains are covered by trees, grass, shrubs, and bamboos.
The design is based on unifying all functionalities of the building. After meeting the functional requirements and fitting into the environment, we leave the rest of the freedom to the exterior. Due to the narrowing of the space of the waterfront, we put the main entry to the back of the building. In this way, we not only enhance the privacy of the building but also achieve the harmony between the building and the surroundings.
We also create a water system from a mountain creek so that the outside consists of multiple levels of delightful scenaries.
The building looks like two crossed squares. With its entrance lower than the ground, the bottom floor of the building has an entrance masquerading as a fun cave and contains three gray segments and two glass sections. The exterior on the upper floor have a different style of mild luxury.
The first floor is public area, consisting of a meeting room, a Chinese restaurant, a western restaurant, a barbeque restaurant, a chess-and-poker room, and other supply facilities. The second floor hosts the main four guest rooms. The main materials of the building are tempered stones, which had been around for a long time and underwent seven complex procedures to appear solid, candid, and sophisticated.
