About Changdao One Demonstration Area
Changdao One is a landscape design for a demonstration area in Xinmi City, Zhengzhou, China. The landscape covers 11390 square meters on a long and narrow site. Curved walls of white concrete shape an internal route of 180 meters that is read as a journey through a canyon. A deer sculpture marks the entrance of the canyon. Beyond the canyon, one side presents terraced fields and the other side presents the building placed within the landscape. Darker stone tones were selected to suit the dry local climate, and the curves screen the disordered surrounding buildings.

- Production Technology
- Adjust measures to local conditions and be modest to nature. The air in the north of China is dry, which makes the color of the local stone becoming gray, so we choose the material with darker colors to a balance with the natural materials and the environment.
White concrete embodies flexible space and structure mode. The characteristics of this material itself make it not only inject strength and thickness into the building space, but also soften its cold visual appearance texture, weaken heaviness, and clearly reflect the boundary of the building. - Design Challenge
- The current situation of the site is long and narrow, and the field of vision is affected by the disordered peripheral buildings. The problems have covered how to look for the value of the site, to shield the adverse interference from the outside world, to shape the new space experience and aesthetic value, and to transmit the waterfront lifestyle in the future . After in-depth excavation of the site and repeated discussion and deduction, the team took advantage of smooth curve to reverse the disadvantages of space, and combined with pure white wall to deduce the rich sensory experience under different turning spaces, thus opening a secret journey into the deep of the canyon corridors.
- Research
- Through the interpretation of the characteristics of Xinmi City, the overall spatial framework is a gully, a pool and a valley. Combining the steep and graceful Canyon, terraces and other geomorphic features with the circulation and change of natural seasons, it is intertwined with the life of urban people to explore a new way of life. In the real environmental infection, people are looking forward to a more vigorous future human settlement landscape.
- Inspiration
- Inspiration 1: Take the existing resources of the venue as inspiration. The 180-meter internal movement line can excavate the vertical relationship of the site and create a rich landscape experience.
Inspiration 2: The local cultural characteristics of Xinmi City. Mountain dangers, road curves, canyons, terraces and other unique geographical attributes, different turning and changing spaces give more visual feasts. - Project Duration
- The project is located in Xinmi City, Zhengzhou, Henan Province, China. It was started in January 2020 and completed in August 2020.
- Operation Flow
- This project creates "nine sections of memory landscape" through "nine sceneries of Canyon", which is a design concept of "one scene at a time, changing different sceneries step by step", so as to maximize the participation and experience of customers and form a sense of value identity. We hope that people and nature will have a heated dialogue in the canyon space and make sparks. At the same time, through the fashionable and modern design language, using the cutting-edge space elements, and using the expression techniques full of the sense of future, science and technology, we can show the canyon space and catch people’s eyes. Stepping on the fantastic corridor of light, people are just like ramblers walking in the secret place of the canyon, looking for the "aesthetics of life" in the natural world.
